Dust collectors for easy vacuum cleaning. Nice idea if it works.

at 30 seconds in the ps5 frame rate absolutley tanks when its panning over the court reflections jutter down the court too WTF

Minimal effort from EA who know this will sell to the masses of sports fans regardless of how garbage it is?

That was quite interesting. Looks like aftermarket versions of the white fins will be a thing.

Except it's a Take2 game...

Spoke too soon. The disclaimer at the end states "The dust catcher does not guarantee the hardware clogging from dust".

They're fairly interchangeable given both are more interested in the amount of microtransactions they can push.

That looks like a really well made bit of kit to be fair. You know when you watch an I-phone get stripped and you can tell its been well put together, I get the same from this. That heatsink is almost as big as a PS4!

UI is clearly a mess so close to launch

Nah, they'll just drop a video with no notice like they did with this.

Do we think the cooling ideas dictated the shape and size of this thing? Meaning, there wasn't an option to make the PS5 box shaped.

Totally, PS5 is hideous because of its requirement of design internally, especially now you see what it’s packing inside.
Would like to see a digital edition teardown as well, wonder if they will do one.

scap value alone on that heat sync must be like 400 quid Jesus

have Microsoft done a similar tear down? rumors are circulating that the thing kicks out so much heat that it could be used to heat a small flat
