i guess its designed for proper water drainage.

 

[Makariel]

Demon's Souls out of 10.

 

[Aceofspades]

I am interested in seeing the thermal dissipation of this beast

Seems like Sony's engineers went an extra mile designing PS5 .

 

[Spukc]

I am impressed that sony managed to release a console that is uglier then this thing.

 

[devDemonik]

It looks like a humidifier. Those corners look sharp too and like they could really injure someone. But I do like the look of the white shell over everything as a theme. Still, XBX wins the visual battle this time around.

 

[Thicc Enigma]

I fucking love it.

Though it does make me think of Alienware and my Asus Router when I look at it.

It's such a departure from other console designs.

 

[Orta]

 

[DocRay]

Love it!!!

 

[Rick Dangerous]

I don't like it. I may have liked it 20 years ago. Tastes change...

 

[Genx3]

Looks like it was designed by a high School student.
looks like a $100 streaming box or router.

 

[Fuz]

 

[Endangered08]

First impression is that it looks like one of those cheap dollar store consoles filled with arcade knock offs.

 

[I Love Rock 'n' Roll]

Pure porn.

 

[Georome]

This is my first time seeing it, and it's fucking hideous. Holy shit, are those pictures real?

 

[ThatStupidLion]

Looks overdesigned tbh.

Personally i think it looks like ass. And not the good kind

 

[junguler]

looks ugly, what the fuck they were thinking? ps4 was just perfect, ds4 too.

 

[Chiggs]

So I have to admit, while the games grabbed me, the look of this thing is an acquired taste.

[Orpheum]

Amazing

 

[splattered]

Ugly. Overly engineered.

Seems like it might be enormous as well.

Still getting one but holy crap I probsbly would have been happier with that recent rumor it was twice as big as ps4 pro and shaped like a Klondike bar haha

 

[Dnice1]

Complete the gamer bro set.

 

[Ten_Fold]

It’s ok, abit over the top for the design. I wonder if this thing will be as big as the OG PS3. I wish they went for a more simpler design though. If the Xbox Series X can lay flat I think that one looks better imo.

 

[fersnake]

looks really good and different, the only downside is i need to change everything to black and white to match it xD

 

[Nankatsu]

Official image of the console on horizontal, from Playstation Blog.

Just as I suspected: the one with the optical drive looks more slick horizontally rather than vertically.

 

[VAL0R]

I don't like it much. I prefer simplicity.

 

[Sephiroth_VII]

If you look at the stand, it has a different shape for each version. I'm 99% sure that it will be included, and is used both when positioning the console vertically and horizontally.

 

[KiNeMz]

I love it. Love the memes

 

[PSYGN]

Ugly

 

[Shodan09]

It looks fucking stupid lol

 

[Oddvintagechap]

I think its radical. In the end I dont care. But Sonys gonna get some angry emes going, people like shoe boxes.

 

[Gravemind]

Has there ever been a console where a USB port is right in the middle?

Wow I never even noticed that. Wtf. Very odd placement.

 

[Craig of War]

I can't believe it but those picture of the render made by people actually look better than the offical console design haha

 

[Evangelion Unit-01]

Not huge on the design. Xbox has the better design this time around IMO.

That said, the only designs from either that I consider to be "bad" are: PS3 Super Slim, the original Xbox One, and now this one. Interested to see it in person.

Also, glossy plastics are awful.

 

[Little Chicken]

I'm still getting used to it. It's size and white colour means it's going to look very conspicuous in my living room.

 

[Chittagong]

Actual size comparison apparently

I mean what inside the fuck, this thing is the size of an Alienware X51

 

[InterMusketeer]

Ugly as sin. I just want a rectangular box to put in my TV stand. There's no need for it to stand out at all.

 

[Mojo1990]

Maybe in black.

I was hoping Sony would go for a minimal slate design (similar to OG ps4) with premium materials.

 

[R6Rider]

The giant size is because there's actually a full PS3 slim in there to play those games.

 

[hunthunt]

Now thats a console.

Im so glad that they went for the crazy futuristic desing instead of the lame Bluetooth speaker of Ms.

 

[VisualFidelity]

This shit is damn ugly. Will stick out like a sore thumb in a living room. With that said, XSX is just as ugly.

 

[Spokker]

Hopefully the electronics stores are still closed by then because I'd feel embarrassed buying that thing in person. I want discreet shipping like I'm buying a fleshlight.

 

[Animagic]

I can’t stand it. The design reminds me of the TECHY wallpapers people put on their android and windows backgrounds 10 years ago.

 

[Hayriko]

Giggles

 

[TheMan]

I like it. They had the balls to step away from the usual angular, box-like designs and go with something curvier and more futuristic looking.

It's divisive now but i think it'll grow on people.

 

[Breakage]

It looks broken as if someone has pulled the case apart and forgotten to put it back together.

Also, where is the actual PS5 logo on this thing?

 

[Juke Joint Jezebel]

Looks like a wifi router, pretty fucking ugly. The white/black aesthetic makes it look like an Alienware tower.

 

[Craig of War]

Looks like PS5 is gone to be a really big boy

 

[R6Rider]

The giant size is because there's actually a full PS3 slim in there to play those games.

Just to enhance this:

 

[JLB]

Absolutely the opposite. There you have a rationalist, minimalistic extreme design (Tesla) and ... that other thing.
Cant understand how Sony, that crafted the single most beautiful console of all times (ps2) and other good consoles like ps4 and ps4 pro did this.

 

[kuncol02]

Looks like PS5 is gone to be a really big boy

Again. XSX drive is smaller. You can see that there is some shit inside slot in its top part.
