The CECH-3000B will cut power consumption to 200W from 230W and slash weight to 5.73 lbs from 6.6 lbs.
Sony's updated console will still have a 320GB HDD, remove LED lamps and include "external changes to the power and eject buttons," says Andriasang.
It is unclear what those changes are, however.
Sony will ship the updated model when current stock is depleted, at the same price point as current units.
