      It’s quite normal as chip manufacturing improves and die sizes shrink. Smaller dies need less power and therefore run cooler, it’s a win-win. It’s also how the various slim models of consoles suddenly appear a few years after the regular version came out.

      Cost related reasons. Similar thing happened with the PS5 revisions.
