Even the best of us have experienced at least once in our life losing track of time because we're busy punching those keys trying to beat a game.

Remember Flappy Bird?

Now try imagining getting your hands on the best-selling gaming console Sony has ever develop up-to-date? PlayStation 5 is a superb gaming system offering the next-generation gaming experience- one with a 4K graphics display at 120fps enabled- and has revolutionary controller haptics and redesigned user interface with fantastic splash screens for every game available.

If you are not a gamer who appreciates this beast's featured technical specs, then keep in mind PS5 is priced at $499.99. Not something you can afford with pocket change.

Vietnamese Facebook arena tells us the story of a man who understood these facts to heart.

Remaining unnamed, a family man bought his very own PS5 and had it delivered to his house.

Unfortunately, he had a wife who would not be pleased with this purchase. He had to make sure she'd never know!

The man immediately instructed the installer from Sony to dress up in their local network service provider's uniform. It doesn't stop there; the sticker of the same network's after-sales service contract was requested to be pasted on the side of the PS5!

With the PS5 adopting a white-colored casing, designed to be laid flat on a surface or propped up in a tower-style with a stand- is he planning to tell his wife they are installing a 5G WIFI router instead?

Did it work?

We have no idea, but these splashing pictures of his adventure going viral on social media are not helping his chances of getting away with it.

This isn't the first stunt the internet has heard of.

Back in December 2020, Jin Wu in Taiwan was the lucky man who bought his own PS5 after availing a sweet deal. But how did this happen? Especially when the PS5 back then had not yet launched in the market?

Being cautious, Jin Wu decided to talk to the seller and was surprised to hear a female voice on the other line. She was selling it less than its pre-ordered retail price.

When the delivery came in, the owner was a middle-aged man who, according to Jin Wu, was someone "You could tell definitely played video games, just with a single look."

Jin Wu was puzzled. "Why are you selling this?" The man replied, "It was my wife who wants to sell it."

Their full conversation is posted in Jin Wu's social media account, but it concludes with this line:

"I went silent after seeing the look in his eyes. I could feel his pain. Seems like women can still tell the difference between a PS5 console and an air purifier."

In conclusion, when purchasing the revolutionary PlayStation5 with its cutting-edge RDNA 2 GPU, 4K resolution, octa-core AMD Z 2-based CPU, and Tempest 3D audio-learn to hide from your wife better.
