The PS5's white plates are swappable, leaked pictures suggest
- Thread starter Lant_War
- Start date
I took your A4 guess and ran with it, I'm just on my phone at lunch but that's what I compiled
Did some quick calculations
First pic is D4
Second is A4
I posted em before
These are my two estimates based on what size the paper is
402 mm = 15.8 inches
310 mm = 12.2 inches
Edit: based on previous measurement attempts
Which inferred the height to be 38 cm instead of this 40 cm, pretty close!
let's just say for sake of argument that all measurements across both variables use their nearest super round number
That still means
40 x 30 x 10 cm
15.75 x 12 x 4 inches
The implications of a unit with volume of that scale are pretty nuts
12000 cubic cm
756 cubic inches
versus XSX 432 cubic inches and 6750 cubic cm.
This is a large device in terms of mass
Reminds me of X360 faceplates. I've never dabbled in that stuff but hopefully this is what it means, as well as the ability to swap out the SSD like the PS4's HDD.
More cooling airflow, less likely to overheat, easier to clean dust off.
Hmmm...I dig it, naked it it is then for me!
It wasn't long, no. Once they switched to the all matte console they disappeared.
The question is, when they are removable..why should i add some, it will be better for cooling without those plastic things on each side.
I was a sucker for the 360 plates
A sucker for the N3DS plates
and I'll be a sucker for these ones

I was wondering this as well, doesn't seem to be very "user friendly" to change, more like a PC case. But I honestly don't remember if the 360 faceplates changed easily, think I did it once
That is cool, should make custom PS5s much more fun.

Awesome if true. I guess Black PS5 is going to be a thing even if they don't officially make one.
Looks fairly easy to snap on/off. And all they need is for you to do it once as they can sell a custom plate for $20-$30 bucks, but it costs pennies to make. It can essentially be seen as extra profit on a good number of consoles sold, sort of like phone cases, I don't think they anticipate people to have dozens of these over time, but get a nice one they like and stick with it.
Am I the only one that thinks all those hooks/connection points makes it less likely to be easily removed?
Or are all those little "spikes" something else?

I think it could have some micro switch to detect presence of the face plates to operate.
They look like angled snap points distributed across the surface to provide spacing and support everywhere across the case, not just corners.
And they can do Deluxe Edition for games that have exclusive shells.
That
That's the color I want if they switch faceplates. Ps1 color. Guessing that's the 20th anniversary edition?That is some thick looking plastic in some of those pictures. Hopefully that means build quality will be great
No, you had to remove that part on the OG PS4 to replace the HDD:
The slim and pro were more benefited with this, see the custom ff7r faceplate
makes sense, considering they talked about being about being able to use standard M2 drives, gotta be able to easily get to the internals somehow!
Is that a hard process? I've seen plastidipping tool handles and stuff seems to be fairly straightforward.
Guess this time I'll forgo the traditional whiff of a new Console.
