Sony PS5 teardown video reveals removable sides, dust catchers and storage expansion options

A seven-minute teardown video published by Sony gives us a look into exactly what’s inside the upcoming PlayStation 5 (PS5) console. The teardown in the best look at the new console so far and gives you a look at all the internals and shows how the sides are actually removable.

The teardown video was done by Yasuhiro Ootori, Sony’s mechanical design head for the PS5 who pointed out that the entire rear of the PS5 is designed to “exhaust air out of the console”, as The Verge reports.

As seen on the video, Sony is using a base on the PS5 which is held in with a screw when it’s oriented vertically and is clipped to the side of the console when you use it horizontally. The white panels on the two sides can be easily removed by lifting them and sliding them off.
