Mine is whisper quiet. Send it back.
Your mileage will vary, my Xbox one s is louder than my og fat Xbox it has a whine that's constant yet a lot report theirs being quite, my pro is way quieter than my old white ps4 only heard the fans once and I've been playing it non stop since last week.That's pretty loud in all fairness.
Someone said it was similar to the matte model. Different reports all over the place it seems. I thought Digital Foundry said launch model loud.
Which would suck.

I always consider the people that religiously swear their console is silent as the grave as unrepentant liars. I could even hear my wii sometimes, but these rapscallions would have you believe their machine is the ps4 of myth that runs on the inaudible breath of angels for cooling
Mine is really quiet. To even hear it I'd have to mute the TV.
I think Digital Foundry said it's best
It's not so much the overall loudness now, but the distinct pitches it's able to hit
Those are 30fps games
Play something like Titanfall 2, The Last of Us 60fps Mode or CoD: Infinite Warfare
Because with (some) PS4s being so noisy the market clearly said that noise of box is not a factor which impacts sales,That being said, I truly don't understand how anyone at R&D thought the insane whine-pitch the system CONSTANTLY puts out when playing 60fps content (system is actually silent with 30fps games ala Rise of the Tomb Raider) @ 4k (or downsampled 1080p) would be acceptable.....
I feel you. It must be really annoying. Did the new update fix this issue?

I always wonder with the people who complain about their PS4 or PC being too loud. How close is your freaking PC/Console to your damn head? I feel like if you're like 6+ feet away from the console, or you have your PC sitting under your desk, or next to your TV like a console you can barely hear them typically. Especially when you're watching or playing something.
I really don't notice my PS4 Pro or PC.
I thought early impressions said it was whisper quiet?
Ugh mine is so loud. I'm here watching my brother play Battlefield 1 and I can hear it 15 feet from the couch. It's been that way since he started the game. Really annoying.
This is nothing compared to the jet engine mode of the original PS4.
I don't remember my original PS4 ever being this noisy. I have the colume up high and I can easily hear it from far away.

Edit: This is jet engine mode:

Without more information about specific conditions most "I do(nt) hear anything" comments are not very useful.
My setup
Mine is quiet...
I will never understand GAF's obsession with how loud/quiet consoles are. You guys don't play with your TV/sound system muted right? I don't understand why you would even listen out for shit like this when the volume of whatever your watching/playing should be the most prominent thing.

It's really very simple. Everyone has their reasonsBut I will never understand GAF's obsession with how loud/quiet consoles are. You guys don't play with your TV/sound system muted right?
