MAY 11, 2023 + Controller design is sleek ... smaller buttons. Easier to hit what you want. + Share, Options and PS buttons have a profile. No more groping for them. (Hate the flush PS4 buttons.) + The on-screen keyboard is greatly improved. Much easier & faster. + And finally ... the graphics. *chef's kiss* It's like I have a new TV. Not exaggerating. Vibrant & crisp. I wasn't prepared for how beautiful games look. Didn't touch TV settings. Just plugged in the PS5 and voila! Games that I always had trouble with reading text are a thing of the past. Everything on screen is crystal clear. Had the PS5 shipped in Amazon packing for obvious reasons but was uneasy based on comments. Was sitting outside waiting when the driver arrived and placed the box next to me. The tape was mostly pulled away from the top flaps. One side of the box was torn and the PS5 box was clearly visible. My heart sank. Happily, I received a pristine PS5. The Sony box doesn't have a mark or dent on it. The seal was intact and everything inside was untouched. (Sadly, the literature is in Spanish & French only. Oops!) The console booted normally and plays discs perfectly. Encountered none of the issues others recently described. This is truly money well spent. If you game a lot and want a better experience but haven't managed to pull the trigger, I say go for it! I'm so happy with this console. It's absolutely better than PS4 and not just a little bit. I've been very happy with my PS4 and didn't expect wonders but the PS5 is a significant step up. ============================================================================== TIPS If your brand new PS5 isn't reading discs, don't panic. The optical scanner is on the outside of the slot, meaning that you must face the label in towards the console. For most people, it's counterintuitive. I unwittingly put the first disc in backwards and thought I had a console with a bad reader. Nope. It works fine. (Read June 6, 2023 update below regarding optical reader!) The UI on the PS5 is NOT like PS4. If you can't seem to get to the main menu, which they call the Control Center, hit the PS button twice. (some screens only require that you press it once) Do not put your PS5 on a base with 'cooling fans' in it. The PS5 pulls air in at the top and vents at the bottom. Bases with fans blow the hot air up and overheat the console. PS5 definitely does not run as hot as PS4. As long as there's breathing space around the PS5, it should be fine. Crashing - It's not constant but there's no way around it, especially if you're playing games that were originally created for PC. While PS5 is better than PS4 at rendering graphics, no PlayStation has the chops to render graphics like PCs with high end GPUs. The only PS games that have ever crashed on me are PC games that were ported to PlayStation. Happily, I've never lost data due to crashes. =================================================================== Update June 6, 2023: Today one of my CD games (Stray) tried to update. The console kept throwing an error code (CE-10005-6) that it couldn't read the disc. It's a new disc with no scratches or fingerprints. Moreover, the PS5 read this disc/installed the game the day I received the console. I knew it wasn't a disc issue so I laid the console on its side. Lo and behold, this time the PS5 read the disc. Reader issue.

The PS5 arrived fairly quickly and was in good shape upon arrival. Now, regarding the console itself. The PS5 has a 'unique' design and is easily the biggest video game console I've ever seen. Due to its sheer size, I've had to place it horizontally within my media center where it's a bit difficult to access the disc drive. The console came with a short HDMI 2.1 cable (capable of supporting 120fps if both your TV and the game you're playing support it too) and a generously sized USB cable for plugging in the controller or charging it. The game "Astro's Playroom" comes preinstalled and is an enjoyable, albeit short, game which you can use to familiarize yourself with the controller and console. The console is advertised as having 825GB of storage, but only 667GB are usable so I'd recommend buying either an external HDD or a compatible nvme SSD for extra storage. PS5 games load extraordinarily fast and PS4 games enjoy faster loading times as well. Even XCOM2, which barely chugged along the PS4, runs smooth as butter. That said, install times are still rather long and it takes a while to transfer games to/from my HDD and SSD. Despite claiming 8k on the box, I'm not aware of any games that are capable of natively supporting it. While the console does support 4k resolution and 120fps, you'll need to find games that do so too. While some games will run at 4k/60fps, others will have resolution vs. performance modes that'll sacrifice either resolution or framerate to ensure the game runs well. The DualSense controller is appealing to the eye, has an ergonomic design, and the built-in haptic feedback is very pleasing to experience whenever a game supports it. My only complaint is that the battery life is somewhat poor and seems to charge slowly whenever plugged into something that's not a PS5. As such, I'd recommend charging the controller while playing a game or while the PS5 is in rest mode. The PS5's Wi-Fi adapter is an improvement over the PS4's. It supports both 2.4ghz and 5ghz. I've noticed my downloads running faster on the PS5 than the PS4 while on the same network. The PS5's backwards compatibility with PS4 games seems to work pretty well. Most games (especially ones with PS4 Pro patches) run extremely well and you can play them with a PS4 controller if you'd like. The only downside is that installing PS4 games seems to add to the PS5's "other" storage space. All games now have an install progress bar, and you can now separately delete DLC from games. As far as problems go, I've found that the PS5's UI leaves something to be desired and I've occasionally run into small software problems, usually whenever installing, moving, or deleting games. Additionally, when I plugged in my external HDD for the first time, half of its game library was seemingly deleted. I now suspect that it's due to most of the games not being fully installed, something that I've now remedied on the PS5 and have not experienced again. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with my purchase so far and find it to be a worthwhile upgrade to my aging PS4. If you own physical PS4 games or prefer physical game copies in general, buy the PS5 disc edition. If you go all digital, get the cheaper digital edition. Aside from the presence (or lack thereof) of an optical drive, I'm not aware of any difference between them.
