I recently got mine as well, just in the white. These faceplates DEFINITELY make the PS5 look like a whole other console and I like it. Way better than the popped collar or binder look of the original. I can definitely see dbrand making multiple color ways in the future.
I got the 2.0 darkplates and I think they do look better to have the more sleek curved look. Plus putting my hand around the playstation it does actually feel cooler even on the back
You say there's a performance increase but didn't show any actual measurements or tests like actual tech channels do. All the *actual tests* I've seen show a difference of a few degrees with these plates and stock plates, and no noticeable performance increase.
The plates do make it look better but there's not much difference in temperature control. It just makes it easier for dust to settle on the fan without a dust cover.
The Ps5 a boring dull box? What are you talking about? It's looks like something nex, futuristic and elegant. You are turning it in a dull black box. 🙄
Each has their own opinions. For me I just want my console to run as good as possible. SInce these help it run cooler I want to get some myself. Plus the black will go better next to my Series X
I just got my Classic White Plates 2.0. I sorta wish I got the center skin with the patterns, but just opted in for the Matte Black skin. I'm happy with the combo as it gives it an OEM look. I decided to place an additional pre-order for Black Plates w/ the Pattern Skin, so hoping it ships by the end of this month (March).
I was hesitant to using 3rd party covers for the PS5, but lately I keep getting the heat warning message. Nothing's changed other than the games I'm playing are more graphically intense. I went ahead and ordered the Darkplates 2.0 after seeing reviews like this.
Is there any issue with dust with the Dark plates 2.0? I heard that the original plates are made to make sure the ps5 gets proper ventilation is this true and does the dark plates 2.0 effect Ventilation in a negative way?
Why are all these people talking about playstation 5 pro why are you even discussing playstation 5 pro when we haven't had any games for 2 years when the AK marketing is nonsense when the 120 frames per 2nd is nonsense unless you're OK with playing games at 1080P we do not need a playstation 5 pro
@@shockafter7 that’s probably because it doesn’t really need a stand when it’s horizontal..? I use my stand in horizontal cause I have a cat and it works just fine. It’s not like it’s gonna tip over

@@lucasmoore8558 cabinets are not really great places to put electronics, believe it or not. But you should be fine if it's not jammed against the cabinet walls and has space to breathe. Be sure to use the stand that came with the PS5 so it doesn't lay flat.
I ordered a set off amazon just to see how they compared. They didn't the plastic felt way cheaper and the mold wasn't nearly as clean. You get what you pay for I guess.
I purchased an aftermarket version of these plates on Amazon. Rounded edges with the fan cut outs. Had them for a year now and came up up with two things: 1. I didn't notice any extra or excessive dust within the PS5 and mine didn't come with the dust covers. 2. The new plates kept my PS5 6 degrees cooler (122 vs 128.1). ... Actually three things... 3. I like the aftermarket look better than the original. I love them 😁
The 1s and 0s are actually sony's cease and decease letter that they sent to dbrand and they put it on plates in binary lol

I bought gray version *plus gray skin front panel) because of nostalgic reasons. Reminds me of good old days and my PS1
I like the Darkplates 2.0 as the top aligns with the top of the console and the two fan vents allows for more airflow when you remove the grills.
I ordered the same exact cover and middle vinyl. I didn't get the lights though. Can't wait for my Darkplate 2.0 this Monday 😁

Ok expert
Thank you.
@@garwood7258 10 degrees cooler compared to original pkates
You also have to remember the darkplates have a dusk cover you can clean. Which would make the system overall stay cleaner

What’s the update? Console
Running good?

dbrand has identical quality to the official ps5 faceplates and they look better imo
Did they change anything?
I love your videos and it really helped me choose some things. :)
Have you tried removing them? I can’t get mine off 😂
Crazy exactly what I plan on doing to my ps5
Hey man good video! Where did you get your wallpaper from in 00:24 ??
Is there any issue with dust with the Dark plates 2.0? I heard that the original plates are made to make sure the ps5 gets proper ventilation is this true and does the dark plates 2.0 effect Ventilation in a negative way?
Sonny claimed no ventilation created a vacuum but their are tests on UA-cam that say otherwise especially when you throw a hot internal SSD .
@@FighterFlash so the dark plates are no good for ventilation?
Or are they okay?
@@chunny101 they actually improve ventilation
The dark plates also have filters over the vents that can be removed and cleaned, just got a PS5 going do all this SSD upgrade
May I ask have you had any issues with your dad I’ve seen mixed review turning the 5 to a brick?
the binary code inside the plates is actually cease and desist letter from sony to dbrand and this is them trolling sony lol
I got mine in retro gray they'll be here on Monday I'm pumped.
Hey man, what’s the update? The console
Running good, I heard song said these plates cause overheating but that’s hard to believe. Please let me know?
how do you put the console on its side with these plates
I prefer the design of the normal plates. I have the original d brand ones in black with the black centre sticker. Looks absolutely amazing
nah looks like a collar
You must have a big nose to like it 😀😂
Please help me out I can’t get the strip to come off the 3M paper
Sony's engineers sucks btw, thats no airflow in the standard version

Can you use the stand to put it horizontally with these plates?
Yes.. because it literally just sits on the dang thing lol
@@TDIETZ22 when i commented, i didn't have my PS5 yet lol. now i see the stand is rubbish when its horizontal. pretty disappointing.

Do the normal lights on the Ps5 light out if you buy the extra lights?
How long does it take to ship?
Like 3 months
You’re not sure how these are profitable????? Those plates would only cost a dollar or two to make.
Name middle skin!?
My set will be here Monday.
Coooooool
A collar from Yugioh 💀
Like 👍 PlayStation 5 Gaming
I thought you where 16 y/o when you started talking 😂
Just ordered dbrand for my ps5
Only thing I don’t like is the fan opening
Testing shows about 3-5°F less with them. Marginal but they "work"
@@TDIETZ22 I've seen 10

$70 dollars is ridiculous as these things shouldn’t be a penny more than $30 bucks for a set !
Definitely gonna buy these , the vaginal labia look of the original plates is on another level
Far cheaper options on Amazon. Don't follow brand names and waste your money people
