With the PS5 becoming more available after two years on the market I wanted to cover some of the things you should know if you just got a PlayStation 5 system for the first time.

I signed up and got the invite to buy from playstation direct last December. Then, roughly a month later in January, I spotted an Xbox Series X hiding in the locked case behind the electronics counter at a Meijer. It does not feel like it's been a year with these consoles. More like a few months. It took several months of owning them before it even started to feel real to me. LOL. Even though a couple people at work already got a PS5, one at launch and the other in the first year at least. I was just clickbaited out of curiosity, if there's something I don't know about the system, and/or should be concerned about. And/or? I have yet to watch that show.

The vertical stand is best. I have the PS4 and PS3 vertical also. Heat rises to and escapes out the top end and back of the system. They can stand a few inches apart from each other. If they were horizontal, there would have to be shelves between them, and that takes more space and reduces air circulation.

I did not expect to get a ps5 at all! And I would have been fine with that, as I was setting my eyes on a Steam Deck, since I was looking for a new gameplay experience and simply saw the ps5 as a fancier PS4 but no major changes. Lo and behold, my brother and mom both got me one, lol! am pretty excited to get games for it. God of War Ragnarok and Elden Ring here I come!
I didn't get a PS5, but my wife did get me my first Nintendo Switch. It's OLED Model. From everything we seen that seems like it was the best to get. I know everyone else already had a Switch, but I'm really excited about it. The last console I've had before this is the GameCube. I'm really enjoying my Switch. It's so much faster and looks way better than my GameCube. I'm finally playing BOTW. Btw the Zelda series of games are my all time favorite games. I've been wanting to play that game ever since it came out. It's so different than my favorite Zelda game OoT. It's a lot of fun so far.

I got my PS5 just a month and a half ago and I am happy with it. I am on the PS Premium tier, I will switch to the middle tier as you recommend because of PS3 Emulation in my case. What I wish the PS5 could have is to copy the game saves to an USB drive and in the dashboard I was able to see the friends game activity and trophies, both features from the PS4 are not on PS5 at least not yet. Thanks for all your videos and Merry Christmas to you and everyone.
Got mines in september and im glad for the community as well
I love this channel and the way he makes videos. Just got my pe5 and I just learn what I needed whit this info.

If you have yet to play ghosts of Tsushima, definitely get it for the ps5! It’s a fantastic game with a great story and plenty to do
I see what you did there at the beginning. Nice use of Christmas colors.
Thank you for this. I was browsing last night and saw your tips. I have literally just bought one and the Microphone tip was especially helpful.
Merry Christmas everyone I hope you enjoy playing your new PS5!
Got one for my bday a couple weeks ago and the disc thing really messed with me. I figured it out quickly but it shocked me that the silver side was away from the console.
Thanks a lot this really helps
I actually had a friend of mine who returned his console because he thought it was broken when he laid it horizontal and had the disk drive on the top. He couldn't figure out why he couldn't get the disk to go in. Does show you that he didn't read the instructions cause he only thought the stand was for if it was vertical only
Thanks and happy holidays 🎉
This was a super helpful list

One thing I ran into was I directly moved my usb slow external hard drive to the ps5 for cold storage. My ps4 was not happy I wond up factory resetting it. I probably would have just gotten a new drive if I thought that would happen and just redownloaded the games
I had that problem with which way the disc goes the first time I got my PS5. It said insert disc and we'll install the game while you finish setting up and then it wasn't installed at all cause I put the wrong way the first time 💀
Always have problems getting those plates back on after I take them off.
I’ve had my PS5 for a year and three months, and did not know that that little hole at the top was for a Kensington table rock. That’s pretty cool.
Thank you so much for this video. I was able to get the GoW Ragnarok bundle. I also got the 2018 GoW game and I’ve been playing that first and having a great time.

I thought my disc drive was broken at first, since I have it vertical and am right handed. Feels odd to put disc in right way.
Thanks for the vid, just got a ps5 realy helps😊
I have two big gripes with the PS5. One is PS5 saves. If the PS5 game uses the native PS5 save system, you probably cannot delete, move, or copy individual saves for a selected game. In games like Ghost of Tsushima or Demon's Souls, any save you create in-game is permanent unless you delete your entire game save. The only way around this is to backup and restore your saves from the cloud before you created it in-game. Simply put, the PS5 native save system is inadequate and a large regression. My second annoyance is not being able to copy PS5 saves to USB. Your only option for PS5 specific saves (not PS4) is the cloud. If you're offline, or you don't pay for Plus, you're out of luck. The 'workaround' here is that you can backup your entire Saved Data folder through the system menu. There are other annoyances like not being able to use any themes or change any colour schemes etc. but they don't bother me as much.
My PS5 arrived an hour ago and this was very helpful. Thank you.

great recommendations, Got my PS5 around launch from sheer luck in the PS Direct queue. I second the stand and possibly a spare dual sense if you can manage it... I have not had an issue game interruption from a dead controller battery since that point. I also love the fact that Sony went the route of the NVME drive instead of a proprietary storage option, storage costs just keep getting cheaper. A point I'd just like to bring up. Try to get the PS App on your phone and sync up to your PS5. I have had countless moments when I was away from my house and I found a crazy deal on the PS Store, purchased it, and set the download remotely (While my PS5 was in Rest mode). Came home to see the game downloaded and waiting. It used to be that putting the console into rest mode 'might' cause the console to crash and force a start up... but I haven't seen that happen in almost half a year now. I think Sony patched a fix for it.

The only problem I had with the PS5’s NVME drive port was that it has to be a pcie 4.0 drive :/ when a 3.0 drive would work really fine as well. You still can’t use any other external drive for ps5 games, so unfortunately in a way it’s somewhat proprietary. Many PCs give you the option for pcie 3.0 and the games run as good, so there really is no need to lock people out in playing ps5 games using pcie 3.0 or an external ssd/hdd

I have a brother who also has a PlayStation account and uses the PS5. Is there a family account setup (similar to Nintendo's) where he could take advantage of cloud saves without the household paying more money? Or even if it's only a little bit more, just not as much as two people paying for essential.

One thing you forgot to mention about the PS4 games being backwards compatible with the PS5, 'some' of these games (emphasis on some) come with a free upgrade to the PS5 version. If it's disc based, it will tell you on the box to the game itself (usually on the front but it can be on the back too) that a free upgrade to the PS5 is available.

Another youtuber, John Glasscock, warned not to blow compressed air into those holes. As it could push dust further in to the system. Thus harder to remove without doing a deeper tear down of the outer shell. Also, I think he was implying that the dust being pushed deeper into the system could be damaging. He suggested only vacuuming them.
The cd not being read because it is backwards is an issue I had on the xbox. Took me way too long to r ealise I had it backwards. Didnt make the same mistake twice on ps5.
