PlayStation 5 released in the US and select countries on November 12. While the rest of the world awaits the release, a recent development has become the talk of the town.

Sony announced two models of its new-gen console. The standard PS5 and a separate model dedicated to the digital version of titles. However, both these consoles come in only one color: white.

The white console has a premium finish and for sure looks breathtaking. But some PlayStation patrons have taken matters into their own hands to create a different rendition of the new console.

Some users aren’t particularly fond of the white console as it breaks away from Sony’s staple color for its console: black. Sony also hasn’t outsourced the job of modifying the panels to any third-party companies.

Thus, it has prompted the users to take matters into their own hands to take the necessary steps. Those who have already received the console have adopted a few techniques to customize their panels.

The coating looks rather sleek on the console and emanates a shiny look compared to the matte finish of the original white panels.

Other users have taken a safer approach and have tried modifying the console under the original panel. A range of wraps are available in the market, but it will be intriguing to see if these hover on after hours of gaming.
