Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

Whatever the shortcomings of the PS5, they will still be bought up for the sake of exclusives. And in general, this is a good alternative to assembling a gaming PC, because now, because of the miners, the prices for video cards are completely inhumane. Of course, buying a PS5 at the official price is also difficult, but I managed to do it before the New Year by mailing with a promotional code from the well-known "red" store. The hardware in this console is good, the games are also top. I'm only disappointed by the quality of the case materials and the fan. But now Sony does not even have to try: they will buy everything. I'm glad I got it at all through the RRP.

Pros

- Exclusive games. Demon's Souls, Ratchet & Clank, Spider-Man, Ghost of Tsushima, soon Horizon Forbidden West, Gran Turismo 7. In general, there is something to play, and almost everything is a masterpiece, especially for fans of singleplayer. - Many old PS4 games have been ated to support 4K 60 fps. There is also something to play, one TLoU Part 2 is worth something. - The graphics in the new games are excellent, and even more pleasing, many of them have a 60 fps mode. If PS3 was 720p 15-30 fps generation, PS4 was 1080p 30 fps generation, then PS5 can pull 4K 60! Ratchet at 60 fps with tracing - it's divine! - The DualSense controller finally doesn't feel like an ergonomic orangutan rattle. It looks dignified, and does not crack in the hand, and is comfortable. The new recoil tokens are cool too. - Silence. Unlike the PS4 and PS3, the new console doesn't overclock like a jet plane in games. True, there is one "but", about him in shortcomings. - Beautiful and responsive user interface. - Extravagant design. He is both a plus and a minus. Plus, because the PS5 can not be confused with anything, but a minus . About the minuses in the "flaws"! - Easy access to the "insides" thanks to removable panels. It will be very easy to clean the dust! - The price is a huge plus. Especially if you manage to buy a PS5 at the RRP (it's not easy, but it's possible). At this price, you can’t even buy one average video card for building a PC, without taking into account all the other components .

Cons

- Design. It stands out too much, does not fit into almost any interior and does not combine with other devices. - Size. The console is huge compared to the PS4, taking up a lot of space even in an upright position due to the stand. - By the way, about the stand. Who came up with this plastic rattle? Looks and feels disgusting, takes up a lot of space. Dislike. - Housing materials. The side panels are not white, but grayish, you can see stains from the outflow of plastic. The black glossy panel scratches from the air and literally absorbs fingerprints (well, this is already a tradition since the PS3). - Lottery of cooling fans. The PS5 comes with fans from different manufacturers: Delta, NMB, and Nidec. The first two are fine, but Nidec is of terrible quality: due to poor centering, it creates a vibration that is transmitted to the body of the console and creates an unpleasant high-frequency resonance, the so-called "UFO sound". This squeak is simply unbearable, even at low speeds it fills the whole room. It is impossible to guess which fan will fall into your console (and not before choosing with the current shortage). Good news: if you, like me, came across Nidec, then this problem can be solved either by replacing the fan yourself with an NMB (I do not advise buying copies of Delta and XRF, they do not gain the required speed and the console may overheat), or by placing rubber rings under the screws the stock fan mounts and slightly loosening them (from the factory they are too tightened, vibrations are transmitted more strongly). But anyway, it's a shame for Sony - reviewers and journalists were given consoles with a "quiet" fan, so that they praised the PS5's noiselessness, and they put it on sale at all (and so everything will be sold out!). - It's hard to buy. But now it's hard to buy.
