  Off-brand PS5 shells should have been fine, unless they were dumb enough to copy Sony’s logos and whatnot. It’s just swoopy inert shapes and it’s only designed to work with official hardware.

    Dbrand ignores Sony’s legal objections and releases Darkplates 2.0 side plates for the PS5 - Notebookcheck News

    Sony has taken issue with Dbrand selling Darkplates side plates for the PlayStation 5. In response, Dbrand has released Darkplates 2.0 in three colours.

    Also…

    At the launch of the Darkplates, Dbrand was so sure that it would not face legal action from Sony that it goaded the company into bringing legal action anyway. Specifically, Dbrand included the message ‘Go ahead, sue us’ on its Darkplates product listing, which are 1:1 replicas of the PS5’s stock side plates.
