What’s the difference between the PS5 console and the PS5 Digital Edition console?
The only difference between the PS5 console and the PS5 Digital Edition console is the inclusion of an Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive in the PS5 console. The PS5 Digital Edition console does not feature a disc drive.
Are there any performance differences between the PS5 console and the PS5 Digital Edition console?
No. The consoles’ performance is identical, outside the existence of a disc drive.
Can I use both PS5 console models in either horizontal or vertical orientation?
Yes, both PS5 models include a Base that allows users to adjust the console for vertical or horizontal placement. Watch our PS5 teardown video to see how it works.
Can I expand PS5’s ultra-high speed SSD storage?
PS5 features an expansion port that will, in the future, enable players to add M.2 SSD storage to be used for installing and playing PS5 games.
Can I play PS4 games on PS5?
Yes. When the PlayStation 5 console launches this November, more than 99 percent of the 4000+ games available on PS4 will be playable on it.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So having owned and used the PS5 for just over a month now, I thought I'd share my initial impressions via this review.
The console is big, probably the biggest I've owned, and I've had a fair few. With that said when stood vertically on the supplied stand it really doesn't take up a great deal of space alongside a TV, or on a desk besides a monitor. Even horizontally it will only take up the same space as traditional HiFi seperate unit. It just feels looks larger due to its design and colour.
Within that large casing it houses a substantial cooling solution. During use the fan is exceptionally quiet and I am yet to hear it step up to levels that are audible in normal circumstances. What can clearly been heard is the optical drive. You know when the BD drive is spinning. It's a little disappointing compared to the relative serenity of the rest of the system. Thankfully its rare the drive needs to work outside of installation, or initialisation.
Once the system is running you encounter the UI for the first time. Everything is fairly straightforward with games front and centre. Elements will be familiar to former PlayStation owners but equally other will be less so, and maybe a little confusing at first. Once you're used to it, it's actually better than the PS4's but there are shortcomings. One glaring omissions is the lack of folders for your games and media. I am sure this can be added in a future update but it seems odd to exclude it in the first place. Closing games can be a little convoluted. On the PS4 it was a fairly straightforward affair, but. On the PS5 it take at least one to two additional button presses.
Games are what it's all about and this were the PS5 excels. So far I have played AC: Valhalla, Demon's Souls, WRC9, FIFA21, Astrobot, No Man's Sky, Bugsnax and Haven. These are all PS5 builds and a mix Triple A and Indie titles. In terms of performance it's a big step up. All of these games hit 60fps with ease. This make a big difference to action titles like AC and Demon's Souls. Couple that with the boost in visual fidelity, and lightning fast load times( thanks to the SSD) and they are joy to play. Then we have backwards compatibility. Many older games receive a significant performance boost and some first party titles receive a graphical upgrade. The now notorious Cyberpunk 2077 serves as a great example of the PS5 power. The game was poorly optimised at release for the PS4 family of consoles, to the point were it unplayable on vanilla hardware. While running the PS4 build, the PS5 can maintain a steady 60fps. Pop in is non-existent thanks to the super fast SSD and RAM, the texture pop in isn't detectable.
Everything isn't rosy when it comes to games though. Storage is limited. Of the 825gb only 667gb is usable. There is an M.2 slot for future expansion, but this currently disabled due to no suitable drives being available. You can use an external to store and play PS4 games, however you won't benefit from the boosted loading times offered by the SSD. Because of the adoption of a standardised M.2 slot this will mean future expansion will be available and get cheaper over time.
Probably the biggest surprise is the Dual Sense. Until you pick it up and play Astrobot you don't realise how big of game changer this could be. The haptic feedback is fantastic. The fine tuning on Astrobot allows you feel every surface and input. The adaptive trigger add depth to simple actions like drawing a bow. WRC 9 makes great use of this too by adding resistance to the brake trigger to mimic the progression of the pedal. If none of this is your thing, or you feel it will hinder how competitive you can be, it can all be disabled or tones down. Aside from the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, the Dual Sense feels great in the hand. The DS4 was a major step up from the DS3, and the Dual Sense feels almost as big a leap. It's easily my controller of choice now. My only criticism would be that on both my Dual Senses the R1 and L1 buttons are audible. It isn't the sound of a micro switch, but more the sound of plastic on plastic.
So overall the PS5 is a great starting point for a promising future.
**Update**
So nearly two years into ownership and things have arguably got better. Many new and useful features have been added as well as some quality of life improvements. It would have been nice to see VRR and 1440p support come sooner but it's better late than never. I've added an internal m.2 NVME and have been using an external HDD for PS4 games. As of yet I've not issues with either. Overall the experience for myself remains excellent.
***Update Nov 2023***
So with three years of ownership under my belt have my thoughts changed? No not at all. The PS5 has been solid throughout. It's just a shame Sony haven't given us a few more exclusives in that time. I would still recommend the PS5.

Now that's not to say i like everything about it, Microsoft went through quite a lot of effort to make as many 360 and original Xbox games backwards compatible with One X enhancements or FPS boost available for both Series consoles and well Sony has only focused on it's last gen games which is extremely disappointing.
Onto gaming it plays games at way higher resolution than my Series S and is really silent whilst doing so. Playing God of war (first one) 4k 60fps is something to behold and whilst there's a few other games that I'm going to try out out i think I'm going to have fun.
Now would i recommend this? yes. First party offerings are miles ahead of Xbox at this current moment in time. As Xbox offerings have been lacking, disappointing or whatever the hell Redfall is for the last 10 years. Also the always online DRM...Yeah. However Series X/S is better value for money and you can actually emulate PS1/2 games with dev mode on the series consoles.
The PlayStation is better value for gaming in my honest opinion. PSVR is also an option to have an entirely different experience that's completely none existent over at Xbox. Great selection of first party games, much nicer less marketized home screen and a something i found humorous, it's own version of game pass with a lot of Bethesda games on XD.
I haven't really played all that much on it at the moment but i have a few games downloaded from their version of the play pass.
Updated: It's still good, what I'd like to add is that the PS5 is much easier to clean as it's not that hard to take apart and blow the dust out.
Update again: The backwards combability is literally paywalled into a subscription, so if you want to play older games without having to pay then i recommend the Xbox, not only do you just pop the disc in and install said game from the disc...You'll have One X enhancements, FPS boost and HDR, OG Xbox, 360 and the One games all have this and the sheer fact PlayStation doesn't (PS2-PS3 backwards compatibility?) is mind boggling. For the same price as the highest tier PS sub you can just get dev mode on the Series consoles and emulate every game under the sun from Atari to the Wii this is one of my biggest criticisms of the PlayStation and the other is how restrictive it is no third party keys allowed, terrible refund policy, like come on Sony? Steam and Xbox at least allow you to play the game and refund it or buy it cheaper somewhere else....It's like Nintendo.
Most of my original review still stands, i love the controller and haptic feedback and the games that utilise it, yet i constantly have to mute the controller because listening to people mash buttons through it is not only annoying, it's downright tedious.
