Maybe you are among the lucky to already have a PlayStation 5 in hand, complacent spectators of its media campaign with a strong character, but perhaps you are also among the few unlucky who have encountered problems.
One of these problems seems to relate to the fan of the Sony console, a component that would cause an annoying noise, particularly loud and worrying.
@PlayStation Fan noise sounds broken upon first start-up and stays like this. Disc version. Can be heard in the whole apartment.
Fan bricked? Should I return to retailer and how long will I have to wait for a replacement? Other solutions? # Ps5 #fan #noise pic.twitter.com/ynVZSGWq38

Il fixed, it turned out today, it's pretty simple but our advice must be taken with a grain of salt as it has the potential to invalidate your warranty on the console.
That said, it seems the problem stems from a sticker: this, at least in the situation experienced by the user above, seems to have detached slightly from its original housing and ended up hitting the rotating fan.
Sticker removed, problem solved.
Before leaving, we remind you that, until December 3rd, some interesting Black Friday discounts on the PlayStation Store are in progress, including 3-month and annual passes to PlayStation Plus respectively at € 19.99 and € 44.99 and the annual PlayStation Now service at € 44.99, just to add a bit of backlog to a new generation that has just begun and which, at least for PlayStation 5, will be purely next-gen.
