PS5 Console Skins
Tired of a plain white console? From Nightmare Before Christmas to Venom, and the Dallas Cowboys to Los Angeles Lakers, there are a ton of skins you can choose from. Many of them include officially licensed designs and prints, with scratch-resistant surfaces. They’re vinyl decals with a 3M adhesive backing that makes it super easy to apply to your console, but won’t leave any sticky residue when you’re ready to return to stock! There are a bunch of matching controller skins too. Just be aware that prices vary, and some are more expensive because they include multiple skins bundled together.

Seagate External Hard Drive
You may or may not know that you can plug an external hard drive into a PS4 and load games and apps on it.

Basically, you can bring your entire PS4 digital library with you over to the PS5 quickly and easily. There are both 2TB and 4TB options for the Seagate drive.
