Should You Have Your PS5 Vertical or Horizontal?
You can position your PS5 either vertically or horizontally, whichever fits your space and keeps it cool. Personally, I like it vertical—it looks like a mini skyscraper!

Horizontal all the way! It's more stable and less likely to tip over, plus it fits better in my entertainment center.
I keep mine horizontal to avoid any risk of it falling over. Plus, it seems to keep cool better that way.
Honestly, it doesn't matter. Just place it whichever way looks cooler to you. Anyone telling you otherwise is overthinking it!
