    I don't care how it looks only how it performs and the games that are available for it. That is what matters to me.

    I'm not an IT Specialist, Game Developer, or Clairvoyant in real life, but like others on here, I play one on the internet.

    So by hardware all they meant was what it looks like? Games while looking cool don't really look visually better than what we already get.



    Thought the same thing - the gameplay looked the same as the latest PS4 games.

    The white box and different design are optical tricks to make it seem like the PS5 is a lot smaller than it is. Some people think the Xbox X series X is a monster compared to the PS5, but they actually look very similar in size. I would not expect a black box on this until after release, when people finally realize these two consoles are about the same size and shape


    The world is going to the dogs, which is just how I planned it!

    Looks are not important when it comes to consoles - but damn that's fugly.



    For some reason all of those side vent holes - just have this feeling of something accidentally spilling in there, the shape with the vent channels is literally designed to capture the spills and direct them right to the inside of the console.



    Just looks bad to me.



    Also not a fan of the multi color design - I would have preferred it looked like 95% the same color with some line accents.



    Also blue led glow - literally the worst led color for your eyes, like hell no.



    Strange complaint about the vents, at least relative to the Xbox Series X, which literally has a concave top full of holes.

    I like white even though it looks dirty faster especially shoes but I love white shoes.

    yep - lol




    I still have no space on my ridiculously overpriced exotic wood media entertainment center to fit the xbox X - but that's a different story.


    OOP!  I was looking at an X Box One Series X.  That one is a lot wider, no doubt

    That said, where I would put it, either one would work.  I'm sure the Xbox is shaped like that to allow a little better cooling.

    I don't have exact measurements available, but the surface area of the fronts is not that different.  It looks like PS5 = 4" X 18 "  Xbox = 6" x 13"
    PS5 = 72 sq in   Xbox = 78 sq in

    I was actually expecting the title to mean ,hardware spec discussion,this is really just a look at the casing. Maybe it's a TRICK!!!There is actually nothing inside,Sony is going bankrupt and using this trick to make a ton of money then stash it all in overseas bank accounts or under the old Beer fridge sitting in the rickety old shed outback.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    The video begins with a giant stack of blue balls. They appear to be out of touch with with the sophomoric segment of their audience.

    I hardly move my console at all once it is placed so the size isn't really an issue for me. I am not carting the thing around to worry about that aspect but price is definitely a consideration. Hope Sony does not make it expensive relative to the Xbox.

    The Xbox just looks like a subwoofer.

    So I decided to get a little better educated on these.  

    First thing I will say is that no one knows the exact dimensions on the PS5.  Best guess is about 3.75" x 16" by 9" deep.  That gives a frontal area of ~ 60 sq".  The base plate, if you decide to stand it up vertically, is about 5.25" wide.  As I said there are no published numbers on the dimensions, so take this with a grain of salt.

    The measurements of the Xbox are published.  It is 5.94" X 11.85" for a frontal area of 70.39 sq".  The Xbox is only 5.94" deep, which surprised me.  It is barely deep enough to support a BluRay drive.
