This particular concept design looks awesome.Looks like a PC Engine & that's amazing
WTF tue ps3 devkit looks like a VHS Player so hideous the ps4 one looks very futuristicI like how some people expect this to be some kind of look for release version. There is 0% chance it will look like that on release. For one it is huge. No way console will have that size. 2 Vents makes sense only for this size if you make it smaller those vents will be wrong and won't move any decent amount of heat. Secondly Vents on top side instead of back isn't great consumer electronic choice.

WTF tue ps3 devkit looks like a VHS Player so hideous the ps4 one looks very futuristic
We've seen the renders for more than a minute now......and now a real sample...…...I think we're leaning on more than possibility at this point...Zoneoftech got a PS5 exclusive scoop? It's possible, but Techtube also has things like Tallosivetech completely fabricating a stackable mac pro story.
Well the design is certainly unique.....Sometimes people want something different, unique or even unusual from what they are used to. The dimensions and weight of the devkit may be larger, but for retail I'd imagine it would be slimmed down anyway...…...Think of it as PS3 to PS3 Slim....I just like the design tbh...…..A slimmed down version with the same aesthetics would definitely be cool...…...It looks very fat? Like, thick? The form factor seems really weird. Either it's enormous, or super small (which it absolutely won't be). Kinda looks like the ugliest kind of 90's modem, unbelievably awful.
It won't look like this though, but I can imagine that the heatsink inside is pretty much shaped this way. No way it will have these proportions though.
I don't understand why you people who enjoy this design are excited about this? When has the prototype ever looked anything like the finished product?
Hmm should be easy to figure out the dimensions since we know that the blu-ray slot is 12 cm wide.
Yes, history says different, but anything can happen in the future.....I don't think a slimmed down version of this is unimaginable, but I agree that precedence would dictate we would get a more traditional box...….Either way, whatever the box looks like, the specs is what's most important and of course the games......C'mon, we should all know it won't look like that as we've seen from Sony's past devkits and retail consoles.
I think this won't fit under my TV. And I dont want anything like this public at home... But at least I could keep tea warm in this v space.
Hmm. I didn't know the PS2 devkit looked the same. So 1 out of 4. So the chance is 25%.I like how some people expect this to be some kind of look for release version. There is 0% chance it will look like that on release. For one it is huge. No way console will have that size. 2 Vents makes sense only for this size if you make it smaller those vents will be wrong and won't move any decent amount of heat.

It is a drone as secret feature. Launch will mean many things to many people. Do we know size based on pic of dev kit?It looks like it's going to take off and fly around the house.
It's ugly as hell, but I don't care what it looks like as long as it's silent.
I really don't mind a similar design for retail tbh...….Those air vents....
'5 means Vent''V means 5' will be a great OT tittle.
'V means deVkit''5 means Vent'

PS3 devkit genuinely looks good, even today.I like how some people expect this to be some kind of look for release version. There is 0% chance it will look like that on release. For one it is huge. No way console will have that size. 2 Vents makes sense only for this size if you make it smaller those vents will be wrong and won't move any decent amount of heat.

Plenty of PS1s were flipped upside down, alright.The design makes so much more sense when you flip the unit upside-down which I'm fairly certain will be the case for the retail model.

The big V!!!!!!...…...One thing's for sure, there will be a million ways to market this console...…..This could potentially be the best looking console since the launch of the Japanese Megadrive in 1988. Do it Sony, do it. Give us the big V!
Agreed.Despite ambivalence about the design, I do hope this all means it's a thermal displacement monster that can run its silicon as high clocked as possible. If it's fugly in service of that, I'm good.
