Sony announced PS5, and will launch alongside Microsoft's rival Xbox Series X before the end of the year. It replaced the old “Rumble” technology in the previous control arms and make the reactions more realistic, along with adaptive buttons new that can adjust the button resistance for different game effects.

There is also a “built-in microphone”, the first for Sony’s joysticks, that allows players to chat easily with friends without a headset, alongside the long-awaited “USB-C” port, and of course, there is a new dual-color color scheme similar in style with “PSVR”

Sony renamed the “Share” button to the new “Create” button, which first appeared with the “DualShock 4” joystick for the “PlayStation 4” platform, so that the button provides new ways for players to share game content with the world quickly via platforms such as YouTube And Twitch.

Moreover, the DualSense boasts haptic feedback to offer “a variety of powerful sensations you’ll feel when you play, such as the slow grittiness of driving a car through mud.” Further, the L2 and R2 buttons now have adaptive triggers for further sensation, such as a rumble to simulate the drawing of a bow.

Meanwhile, the angle of the hand triggers has changed, as has the grip, according to mobilesyrup.com.

This is the second major update Sony has given this year on the PlayStation 5. In late March, the company also streamed a breakdown of the console’s technical specs, although this was a jargon-heavy, developer-focused presentation.

Sony is building a library of launch titles that will only be available on its next-generation machine. This contrasts with Microsoft's approach, which is to initially release new first-party games on both its current and next-gen consoles.

"While there's still a lot of unanswered questions about the PS5, namely price and release date, I think Sony did exactly what they needed to with this reveal event," commented Laura Kate Dale, a freelance games critic.

Noteworthy, Sony launched its latest mini wireless headset, with advanced specifications and a price that’s almost twice as expensive as airpods.

The new Sony WF-XB700 headphones come in a design similar to the design of the new Samsung buds, and each small speaker is equipped with a water and dust-proof structure.

Also, internal battery of these headphones is enough to work for more than 9 hours per charge, even when used continuously to make calls and listen to music, according to engadget.com.

Sony’s flagship WF-1000XM3 true wireless earbuds have been our top pick since they arrived last summer. Even before that, the company had a few true wireless models under its belt, and today it’s revealing the latest option.
