I also thought the fan blades were hitting something.
Well I can return it within 30 days for a full refund. No one has an Xbox in Denmark
But honestly I am baffled by the UI. I thought the Nintendo Switch were lacklustre but somehow Sony does it worse
I doubt my son cares though, as he games with headset on and enjoy the added visual fidelity and loading times. His only problem so far has been the button arrangement compared to Nintendo but he already seems to have adjusted.
We are in the minority. Most people thinks the weird navigation axis change, the superfluous button presses, the switcher / home screen resume confusion (switcher can't resume games, home screen can resume games), the Mish mash of tiny and huge navigation elements, etc are not a problem.
Heck, people even like them.
At least that's what I saw in reddit and with how there's zero ps5 reviewers mentioning the weird ps5 design in their review. I mean other than the size and curvature.
As for the noise, some people are bothered by it but some others moving the blame to the PS player for playing in such quiet situation. It was weird.
Same with LEDs, people blames the PS player for playing in a dark room, and for having a TV that can go very dark.
