In the video above, PS5 is made with dust traps, I've never heard of such a thing for tech.

The dust trap looks useful for trapping dust from entering the PS5.

Some custom built Gaming desktop computers have washable air filters made of cloth with very small holes on it or a metal or plastic mesh.

But, I think most computer makers like HP, and Dell don't install dust filters. I feel they don't include dust filters because adding dust filters will raise the price of building a computer, and many PC owners may buy a new Desktop PC with a faster CPU and more RAM in a few years before dust causes overheating and dust related problems with a PC.

A lot of desktop PC also use slower spinning fans which move less air, so they run quieter, and the fan blows less dust is into the PC's case.

It be nice if a lot more PCs and other tech had such filters made in them already. It would keep them going a lot longer.

I feel a lot of average people will not clean the filters, so filters may cause overheating problems sooner than having no filters on a PC.

If they make it simple and easy to do with instructions, I'm sure most would like for Vacuum cleaners and the such.

Electronic makers can make the dust collect into a paper dust bag like a vacuum cleaner.

speaking of vacuum cleaner, I wonder if a special one is needed to clean out such traps?
