Cheap PS5 console cover face plates suddenly look the ultimate visual upgrade

The PS5 console covers, which are available in both the UK (with a discount) and USA (without a discount) right now, come in red, black and white colorways, and add a futuristic new aesthetic to the PlayStation 5.

The plates are made from injection molded plastic, too, which is strong, durable, and shockproof (adding to the protection of the console if accidentally knocked over), while installation of them takes seconds.

I think these PS5 console covers look great, and right now they're retailing for noticeably less money than the official Sony ones, making them the ultimate aesthetic upgrade for gamers right now in my opinion.

The most vibrant and punchy plate is the red colorway, which really seems to accentuate the PS5's lines. A perfect partner for the red DualShock controller.

Here at T3 we're fans of the official PS5 console covers, but as I myself wrote when they launched, their pricing is outrageous, which is $54.99 in the USA and £44.99 in the UK.

These third-party plates, though, ring in for notably less money (especially in the UK now they're discounted), so to me they seem the ultimate way to affordably customize your console and freshen up its appearance.

Personally, I think the red plates look awesome, but I think loads of gamers will likely be drawn to the black finish, too, as it looks super stealthy and slick.

Now, if we can just start getting some officially licensed spin-off new designs and form factors in the PS5 console cover face plate market, PlayStation 5 gamers will be set in terms of making their console their own.
