Mostly yes, but also no. It's super sleek, but looks like it should be in the museum of modern art. It's a significant departure from typical console design, even though it's based on the typical form factor. I'd say it's just as much a departure as the XBSX, just in a different way.

I would assume, yet really hope just as much if not more time went into the cooling system of this thing. If it's got cooling problems, even if it's simply too loud like the PS4 is in general, I'm not going to be happy. No amount of elegant design is going to sway me if the hardware doesn't operate as it should. It doesn't have to be silent, but it does need to be reasonable, especially with a design like this. Now if some of the estimated size comparisons happen to be close, then there should be plenty of room for a worthy cooling system in there like the PS3 had.

Overall I do like it, but it's too futuristic and fancy for my tastes. Mind you, the XBSX is also too boring and bland. Both are intriguing however. Also, even though the black and white color scheme looks cool and makes it pop, I want an all black version, even if it's still two tone with black and gun metal or something like that. The white will stand out like a sore thumb in my entertainment center, and I like everything to blend in.

This is PS though so I'm sure there will be more than a few color choices in the years to come, and waiting for a few years with my PS4 won't be too big of a problem.
