Do you believe the design for Playstation 5 will be similar to Xbox series X?

Sony's not known for crazy designs. Closest to it might be PS3, but I liked it for it. PS4 was very modest. I expect PS5 to be so too.
I think after the Red ring scenario Microsoft have done everything in their power to make sure thermals are not a problem.
I think Sony is a hardware company with large amount of hardware expertise in their DNA. They'll find a way to keep the thermals under control and produce a more aesthetically pleasing case.
Not to say the Series X case isn't aesthetically pleasing but it's a lot more utilitarian than what I'd expect from Sony.

I don't generally 'do' microsoft consoles, but I love the design actually.
May have to hop on for the power and game pass

Op straight up said that they did not know it was a joke when they posted this...
I'd love a grey retro ish design but I feel like that will never happen lol
Other than that, it'd be cool if they made the colour scheme red instead of the staple blue. Feel like that would be really striking.
Yes.
That design/color is perfection and i will be so disappointed when it won't be.
Fantastic combination of nostalgic (25th anniversary) and sleek new design.
This right here. I don't care what it looks like as long as it meets these two criteria.
I have to wonder if most of the complaints are done in good faith or just concern console warring.
Dunno why people waste their time doing these dumbass tacky renders.
I think it will maintain the horizontal rectangle primary design, which people will like better, but it will also be louder which people will bitch about.
I don't think it's impossible, but I also don't think it's gonna happen. There's a lot of reasons for the next Xbox to look the way it does, I'm convinced that space efficiency when building a server farm was one of them, but also Xbox probably wanted to make a statement. It's a bold design, I'm mostly an Xbox gamer and I kind of hate it. Sony doesn't need to make a statement as much though. They can play it a little safer.
Obviously there is a reason X is a PC Tower and PS5 dev kits have vents on 50%+ of its surface area. These SoC's are hot and likely have comparable power consumption to some gaming desktops. Certainly they're not 100-150 watt boxes this time around. While PS5 might not be a PC Tower, it likely won't be a traditional small sealed box either. At minimum there will be lots of vents and/or mesh.
That would cost Sony a fortune. Imagine how many parents would step on it thinking they could weigh themselves with it.
