XSX owner. Have it laying on its side in the open, can't hear a damn thing unless I put my ear right next to it.

XSX is silent
PS5 disk makes noise from time to time but pretty quiet not as quiet as the XSX

I can hear it if I put my ear above the fan. That's about it.

My cat loves it. Every time I turn it on he notices and runs in from the other room. So he is hearing something for sure.
Then we play the disc game for about 10 minutes almost every day. I hit eject and pop a disc out, then he meows and freaks out and starts pawing at it until he pushes the disc back in.

Not an owner but I'm glad to hear that many have quiet systems.

Mine is completely silent. In its box. In a warehouse. Somewhere. Silently waiting for me to be able to buy it.

Haven't heard the series X since day one.
My ps5 rattles when loading discs and has a quiet hum.

My PS5 DE is very quiet and basically inaudible unless I’m less than I’m less than 20-30 cm apart from it. I’ve vacuumed it lightly twice using the dust catchers since launch day.
I could hear my PS5 DE when I bought it at launch, but now it’s considerably more quiet. It’s kinda wierd because my room temperature is probably several degrees higher now when it’s summer. Might be OS updates. It was never ”loud” but i could hear the fan much more clearly at launch than now.

Yeah, i was actually a little annoyed they didn’t make it possible to turn that off in system settings. But then again, It’s supposedly an indicator of hardware functionality and it is a pretty nice nostalgic and consistent touch with the systems.

PS5: Rattling, loud noise. Tried to do a fix myself, didn't work. Sounds like shit. About what you would expect from a Sony product.
XSX: Whisper quiet. No issues at all.

My PS5 only makes a noise when downloading from a disk, which tends to be when trying a new physical game for the first time - other than that, lovely and quiet.
I have had a Series X for a couple of days and other than the startup intro screen sound that shit me up because my TV volume was pretty high, I have not noticed any noise from the unit. I have no physical games, so I can’t compare in that respect.
Ultimately, both are incredibly quiet machines.

Xbox series X is silent, like dead silent.
My PS5 is what I consider whisper quiet, I can't hear it from the Sofa unless it is spinning a disk. If I stand like a metre from it I can hear the coil whine in games like demons souls 60 FPS but i cant hear it from a distance so I'm happy!

XSX is virtually silent, just a super gentle fan hum if I put my ear literally on it but a foot or two away, complete perfect silence.
PS5 coil whine is very annoying and fan ticks and clicks at certain speeds. Not jet engine PS4 bad but certainly not good. Sony engineering really dropped the ball

Fan makers haven't defeated the laws of physics yet so I can clearly hear both XSX and PS5 but both are very quiet. PS5 is a little louder and you can hear the fan spin up in game. My X1X was in the same territory noise wise.
Neither are even remotely comparable to my original PS4 which sounded like a power tool at times.

XSX is quiet, which is to be expected.
PS5 is quieter than my PS4 which is surprising, although there is coil whine. It's acceptable for a Sony console as it's not all that loud.

Series X is really silent, i did have a weird clicking noise of my fan spinning like 1 week ago though but i moved it and its stopped so i have no idea what it was or if it will come back. PS5 is mainly used by my brother but ive only ever heard the disc spinning for like 5-10 seconds apart from that both consoles are great.

My PS5 makes a constant low-frequency sound (intensifies when under load), which is annoying if I play with the low volume. It should be noted, that PS5 is pretty close to me (not your standard sofa+TV set-up). I wish it could be quieter. It is quieter than my PS4 Pro tho, but it's not a hard achievement tbh.
