That may be firmware fixable.
But certain things, like coil whine cannot.
Here's an example of the dumb things Sony didn't contract whoever their PSU OEM was to do:
Not even basic hot glue on the copper coils? They're basically naked and under high loads (which will be common), will vibrate so much and you'll hear that dreaded buzzing/whining. EVERY PS5 will suffer with coil whine, until they do something about it. This can't be fixed with a firmware. Then on to the noise the chokes for the APU which will also whine.
I think there are 2 things you may need to take note before going into panic mode. But certain things, like coil whine cannot.

If you are looking into a troubleshooting thread, sure 100% of the post there are talking about PS5 failure in certain of extend.
Secondly, it's a new launch, every post even in reddit will mainly talk about issues and faulty, but we will not know how many % of them face such issues, probably just minority.
yes, we need to be caution at time, but there're always the risk to take when purchasing the first batch and one should understand this before they PO.
