A new design

RECTANGLE SHAPE or at least a flat bottom for chrissakes, the current design is the worst console to physically interact with ever. — ApocalypticBoredom

100% agree. The only reason I am still rocking my PS4 Pro is this very reason. I refuse to rearrange my entertainment center to accommodate Sony’s poor design choices. — paradescar

I feel like [the PS5’s] design brief also was that it was going to be the centerpiece of your living room and needed to be some kind of statement piece sitting upright in all its massive glory, rather than just another box packed underneath your TV. […] I don’t need a statement piece, I just want a functional rectangle, ideally in black so it fades into my shelving. I want understated, not ostentatious. I want the design style of the PS4. — NegativeZero

Can’t stand the look of the PS5 either, but thankfully my TV stand has opaque cabinet doors. Obviously I keep the door open when gaming for airflow, but when I just want to watch TV, my PS5 and other consoles are completely hidden from view. When I’m actively playing a game, my eyes are focused on the TV, not on the ugly console. — John Smith

I’m ok with the odd angles, but I agree with the flat bottom. I needed to stack a few of those felt pads that stick to the bottom of chairs under the right side of the system. The pads used to help furniture slide better on hardware floors. — Kang81

Weirder design. Just because I find the design complaints dumb. Make it a lumpy rhomboid or a pentagonal plushie. Integrate a fish tank or a toaster oven (get some extra use out of that heat). — necgray
