The\u00a0PlayStation 5<\/a>\u00a0is\u00a0Sony<\/a>‘s next installment to their renowned console line-up. Every single one of their gaming systems has pulled in massive profits and have allowed them to become known as a titan in the video game industry. Though, for most people it is not about the profit, but about the entertainment.<\/p>\n

There have been some incredible new advancements made in recent years in regards to technology, and a lot of it has found its way into the\u00a0PS5. Nothing is perfect, however, so there are a few qualms most have about the next iteration of the\u00a0Playstation.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Not Great: Looks Like A Router<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

There have been a lot of jokes thrown around about the appearances of the next-generation consoles<\/a>, but the\u00a0PS5 seems to be getting off easy compared to its biggest competitor. Some question whether this aesthetic is the right one for a console, as it looks more like a\u00a0concept art<\/a>\u00a0design. Attempting to look futuristic and advanced always makes tech look a bit odd. At least until people get used to the appearance.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Best: Sleek & Thin<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Once one gets past its initial odd look, they will notice how the curves slip and glide around the machine, giving it an almost aerodynamic feeling. It also looks smaller in images than it is; being a bit over 15 inches tall. It is technically the biggest of all the\u00a0PlayStations to have come out but being slim at 3 inches wide, most won’t have an issue finding a place for this console in their homes.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Not Great: Boring Color Scheme<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

White, black, and blue\u00a0have been consistent colors for all of\u00a0Sony’s consoles<\/a>, but this doesn’t stop them from being bland. One would expect with how many cool colors and themes available for the\u00a0PS4<\/a> that the\u00a0Ps5 might launch with some different visual options, but that does not seem to be the case. The white and black with blue lights do look futuristic and overall pleasant to the eyes but feels more like a blank slate to plenty of gamers.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Best: Consistent Style Means Potential Customization<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Even though the\u00a0PS5 stands out among its family, there are similar traits between them all: a slim body with tall stature and angles everywhere. The newest iteration is far curvier than angled but this is a modern spin on what has been done in the past.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0PS4’s front is beveled and the\u00a0PS3<\/a>‘s entire frame is slightly rounded; the\u00a0PS5’s design is essentially an evolution of these older elements. Also, like previous consoles<\/a>, this one will apparently be getting some new color options in the future.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>Not Great: Vents Might Let In Dust<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Many of the complaints people have had with the\u00a0PS4 Pro is that it has the potential to overheat more often than the regular\u00a0PS4. Considering this during the design phase of development<\/a>,\u00a0Sony has decided to give lots of ventilation to the powerful new\u00a0PS5, though all of these holes may cause a new issue. Dust getting into electronic devices has always been a concern, but this console may be susceptible to this threat because of how open it is due to its vents.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Best: Less Overheating<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

With a resilient and quiet fan, the\u00a0PS5 will be able to keep itself cool as players push it to the limits. The multiple holes all over the body will allow it to further exchange and shift the heat that will build up inside. The vents, although huge and possibly an entrance for dust, will likely help the gaming system deal with the overheating concerns that frustrated many gamers with the\u00a0PS4 Pro.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Not Great: The Base Seems Pointless<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Clearly, this round piece of plastic is meant to allow the console to stay vertical with increased stability. But it is also not necessary in the slightest.<\/p>\n

In the tech demo video performed and released by\u00a0Sony, it can be plainly seen that the base’s function is already performed by the\u00a0PS5’s innate balance, making this little black circle pointless aside from an aesthetic quality that makes the console look a bit like a trophy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Best: Works On Its Side<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Thankfully, like previous iterations, this console can lay on its side. The versatility of the orientation will allow the\u00a0PS5 to fit almost anywhere one wants to place it. The rival\u00a0Xbox Series X<\/a> can do the same but just looks a lot more awkward, as if a building has been knocked over. In addition, the\u00a0PS5’s white panels are apparently removable, making it even more customizable. This also bodes well for future add-ons and modifications<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Not Great: Few Ports<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

With a very minimal physical interface, this console looks like the majority of its real-world function will be restricted to the USB and USB-C ports. Having only one of each limits the number of other devices one can connect to their\u00a0PS5. Anyone who has a USB lamp, wants to charge their phone while gaming, or similar will have to choose between what they want to do. This is not ideal, but it is understandable why there would be so few ports. Each additional external device plugged into the\u00a0PS5 will add stress to the console’s already high functional demand.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Best: Excellent\u00a0Variation<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

In an interesting marketing strategy,\u00a0Sony has decided to release two virtually identical versions of their newest console. Both the full version and the digital edition will be running the same hardware and software with identical specifications, the only differences being that the digital edition will not have a disc drive and will be $100.00 (USD) cheaper. With digital purchases vastly outweighing the buying of physical games, this is a great idea to suit the gaming needs of as many potential players as possible.<\/p>\n
