Sony advertising PS5 upside down sideways
The Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) host PS5 is different from the past and the unique exterior design of other manufacturers. It surprised many players when it was launched last year, but its irregular shell also made it troublesome when the machine was switched between vertical and horizontal positions. Quite a few, it seems that Sony has turned the PS5 horizontally.
Sony posted an advertisement on Twitter earlier today (9), but it was discovered by sharp-eyed netizens that the official reversed the PS5 that appeared in the advertisement. Although it seems an insignificant mistake, it is enough for the community. Caused a sensation on the platform, causing Sony to quickly delete the ad (foreign mediapolygon backup video）。

Due to the directionality of the PS5 optical disc drive, if the PS5 is placed with the optical disc drive side up, the disc must be inserted backwards with the reading side “up”, although placing the PS5 upside down does not affect the function. However, for long-term stability considerations, it is recommended to install the bracket and place it correctly (the optical disc drive is underneath) or to place it vertically.
This situation also revealed that not only players, even Sony or the person in charge of advertising, sometimes seem to be confused by the strange appearance of the PS5.
