WEBVTT 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:04.100 PlayStation 5 is huge and that's not just talk about its actual 00:00:04.100 --> 00:00:06.500 size. But in terms of new technologies that are bringing 00:00:06.500 --> 00:00:09.600 the console into the modern era with Chris Graphics fast refresh 00:00:09.600 --> 00:00:12.700 rates and a custom SSD that makes you wonder how you ever use 00:00:12.700 --> 00:00:16.000 a hard drive in the first place is taking steps towards the wrong 00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:19.100 with PC gaming but with all the PlayStation ecosystem features 00:00:19.100 --> 00:00:22.700 that PS4 owners love the last time around so nice to keep up by 00:00:22.700 --> 00:00:25.200 delivering the best games in the best console experience 00:00:25.200 --> 00:00:28.900 wild best AMD CPU in our DNA to base GPU, 00:00:28.900 --> 00:00:32.000 maybe slightly behind the Xbox Siri's accent specs on paper. 00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:35.100 It has a stronger launch Library both to buy exclusive 00:00:35.100 --> 00:00:38.900 games. That is awesome innovation in unexpected places like 00:00:38.900 --> 00:00:39.700 the Dual sense. 00:00:39.700 --> 00:00:42.400 That's Sony's new controller, which is a ton of potential 00:00:42.400 --> 00:00:45.700 when it comes to storytelling and interactivity as long as I can 00:00:45.700 --> 00:00:46.500 get developer support. 00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:54.700 I'll say it plainly the PS5 is massive. 00:00:54.700 --> 00:00:57.800 It's the biggest console in modern gaming and not only that 00:00:57.800 --> 00:01:00.200 it's attention-grabbing and short of be divisive. 00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:04.000 The whole design is sorta like a sandwich the meat is the black 00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:06.700 plastic housing for all the components its glossy and picks 00:01:06.700 --> 00:01:07.700 up last fingerprints. 00:01:07.700 --> 00:01:11.100 It's also where the power and eject button are and they are separate 00:01:11.100 --> 00:01:13.000 which PS4 owners will be happy to know. 00:01:14.100 --> 00:01:18.000 The bread in the sandwich or two white plastic covers that start 00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:20.900 flush with the system and ultimately curve upwards like the blooming 00:01:20.900 --> 00:01:24.600 flower of Aurora pop color review in the version with a disk 00:01:24.600 --> 00:01:28.000 drive and it's what it is that which isn't very kind to the Symmetry 00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:33.000 at the top left side panel has a PS5 logo on the front features 00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:36.600 just to porch USB 3.1 type A and A type c port in the 00:01:36.600 --> 00:01:40.100 latter is a nice touch the future with the system on the back 00:01:40.100 --> 00:01:44.100 door to more USB type a port salons on ethernet Jack HDMI 2.1 00:01:44.100 --> 00:01:48.100 output the power jack and a lock slot on the PS5 come to the 00:01:48.100 --> 00:01:50.100 stand that supported other vertically or horizontally 00:01:50.100 --> 00:01:53.000 and putting it on horizontally is the easy way. 00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:55.800 There is some PlayStation controller symbols and you can easily 00:01:55.800 --> 00:01:58.600 align the cliffs with these symbols and depressed. 00:01:58.600 --> 00:02:01.600 There's no screw Holding On And while that's convenient, 00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:04.900 it does have a tendency to sort of slip around when you reach 00:02:04.900 --> 00:02:07.800 behind it to adjust cables, but standing it vertically 00:02:07.800 --> 00:02:10.700 while more secure is also more work first. 00:02:10.700 --> 00:02:13.800 You have to remove a small circular cap that protects the screw 00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:14.000 hole. 00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:15.600 What you can do with your fingernail, 00:02:15.600 --> 00:02:19.100 then you can twist the base and find Us hidden space holding 00:02:19.100 --> 00:02:22.200 a screw with room for you to play stack apnea pop that screw 00:02:22.200 --> 00:02:24.900 out and there's room for you to latch the basement to the bottom 00:02:24.900 --> 00:02:28.200 and me to call a flat head screwdriver something to tighten 00:02:28.200 --> 00:02:29.500 it either way. 00:02:29.500 --> 00:02:32.200 I suspect many people will pass this once and leave it that 00:02:32.200 --> 00:02:35.800 way for the duration of their ownership the console with definitely 00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.900 the most difficult setup process of any console ever seen prior 00:02:38.900 --> 00:02:39.500 to turning it on. 00:02:47.900 --> 00:02:52.400 PS5 is powered by Tech from AMD 8 core 16 thread processor 00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.700 is based on the 7 nanometers into architecture while the GPU 00:02:55.700 --> 00:02:59.300 is based on the rdna 2 graphics architecture with 36 compute 00:02:59.300 --> 00:03:03.400 units the CPU overclock up to 3.5 gigahertz while the GPU goes 00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:05.500 up to 2.23%. 00:03:05.500 --> 00:03:09.600 Of 10.3 teraflops on paper that slower than the Xbox here is a 00:03:09.600 --> 00:03:16.800 text which goes up to 3.8% 1.8 to 5 gigahertz or 12 teraflops. 00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.600 One way that Sonia's differentiating himself is by using liquid 00:03:20.600 --> 00:03:23.600 metal as the thermal interface material between the CPU in the 00:03:23.600 --> 00:03:27.700 additionally Sony is moving to an SSD this generation. 00:03:27.700 --> 00:03:32.300 The custom storage solution is just 820 5gb with a 5.5 gigabytes 00:03:32.300 --> 00:03:35.100 per second Reid been with which is smaller than what Microsoft Office 00:03:35.100 --> 00:03:38.900 at 1 to remember that's the capacity without the operating 00:03:38.900 --> 00:03:43.100 system hours was 667.2 gigabytes with everything else before 00:03:43.100 --> 00:03:43.600 games. 00:03:44.700 --> 00:03:47.400 In the future, you'll be able to add a secondary m.2 SSD, 00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:49.300 and we'll talk about that later in the video. 00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:54.700 Sony claims that the PS5 can play games up to 4K at 120 hertz 00:03:54.700 --> 00:03:57.200 still there are other factors in play like the game you're 00:03:57.200 --> 00:04:00.700 actually playing in the monitor or television are using we spent 00:04:00.700 --> 00:04:03.500 most of our time reviewing the PS5 with Astros play room, 00:04:03.500 --> 00:04:06.300 which is pre-installed on the system and Marvel's Spider-Man 00:04:06.300 --> 00:04:07.100 Miles Morales. 00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:11.200 Miles Morales is a particularly interesting test subject 00:04:11.200 --> 00:04:13.400 and that it has two settings Fidelity, 00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:16.100 which is Ray tracing enhance flooding and other effects with a 00:04:16.100 --> 00:04:20.700 4K base image all at 30fps and performance which is fuse VFX 00:04:20.700 --> 00:04:24.300 to play at 60fps an upscale to 4K from lower resolutions 00:04:24.300 --> 00:04:28.400 unsurprisingly Fidelity. Both look great with large improvements 00:04:28.400 --> 00:04:31.700 in reflection serving is the star of the show The 100 through 00:04:31.700 --> 00:04:32.800 Manhattan at 60fps. 00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:37.000 There was no going back at 5 and Devil May Cry 5 special 00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:39.400 edition are among the games which in theory will support 00:04:39.400 --> 00:04:44.900 4K 120 the PS5 uses HDMI 2.1 which is as of right now largely 00:04:44.900 --> 00:04:47.100 and just a few TVs and even fewer monitors. 00:04:47.100 --> 00:04:50.300 So 4K 60 was the limit for us and will likely be so for 00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:51.400 many people in the immediate future. 00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:56.000 It's a limited sample set but both Miles Morales and Astros 00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:59.000 play room looks great on the PS5 and the idea that any game 00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:01.500 could be running 60 FPS makes a PS5 enticing. 00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:06.200 If the choices in Miles Morales have typically been limited 00:05:06.200 --> 00:05:06.700 to PC gaming. 00:05:06.700 --> 00:05:08.400 I mean it's not as meat weeks, 00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:11.000 but it does let you make a choice based on your setup and preferences 00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:15.900 the custom SSD feels blazing-fast launching into a game was a matter 00:05:15.900 --> 00:05:17.400 of seconds. In fact here. 00:05:17.400 --> 00:05:18.600 Just watch 00:05:39.300 --> 00:05:42.700 The other way the PS5 is becoming more like a PC is with backwards 00:05:42.700 --> 00:05:45.600 compatibility so needs to listen just 10 PS4 games. 00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:48.600 That won't run on the newest console with a PlayStation 00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:51.800 5 true power is yet to be unlocked just about every console 00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:54.400 generation developers find out how to best run their games 00:05:54.400 --> 00:05:57.500 on consoles. Especially is GameStop running across Generations. 00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:00.500 Due to the nature of consoles. 00:06:00.500 --> 00:06:02.500 You can't really run your typical benchmarks, 00:06:02.500 --> 00:06:05.800 but by measuring the power the PS5 draws the heat it generates 00:06:05.800 --> 00:06:08.700 and the noise it makes we can get a picture of how the concert 00:06:08.700 --> 00:06:12.400 performed you saw surprisingly inconsistent numbers in Marvel's 00:06:12.400 --> 00:06:16.600 Spider-Man Miles Morales for the game true of peak of 225 watts 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:21.100 in boat Fidelity mode with 4K at 30 frames per second and performance 00:06:21.100 --> 00:06:25.700 mode with 4K upscaling 60fps during Astros playground 00:06:25.700 --> 00:06:27.800 repeat that to 24.2 Watts. 00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:31.300 Those are both higher numbers don't we saw on the Xbox series 00:06:31.300 --> 00:06:34.400 x 192 watts playing gears 5 00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:38.400 This is an apples-to-oranges comparison because we don't have 00:06:38.400 --> 00:06:41.300 the same games while testing the systems but it does suggest 00:06:41.300 --> 00:06:45.200 that the PS5 maybe the more expensive console it run when the 00:06:45.200 --> 00:06:46.100 PS5 is a tidal. 00:06:46.100 --> 00:06:50.100 It typically pulled around 49.6 Watts higher than Siris accept 00:06:50.100 --> 00:06:54.800 41.3 watts and when sleeping the PS4 was using 32324 Watts, 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.400 which is lower than the Xbox is 11.7 months. 00:06:58.200 --> 00:07:03.000 PSI cooling is the biggest contributor to the machine size both 00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:06.300 the front and back or covered with vents that you Rose in the 00:07:06.300 --> 00:07:08.500 front or the intakes with the exhaust covering the entire 00:07:08.500 --> 00:07:11.200 rear the system behind to Whiteface place. 00:07:11.200 --> 00:07:15.200 There is a 120 mm fan that is 45 mm thick and can intake 00:07:15.200 --> 00:07:16.300 air from both sides. 00:07:17.300 --> 00:07:21.400 When we tested sound coming from the PS5 ambient noise was roughly 00:07:21.400 --> 00:07:28.200 35 decibels away with a system on it measure 37.1 decibels 00:07:28.200 --> 00:07:32.800 at idle and range from 37.1 to 38.3 in with Spider-Man 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:36.600 and Fidelity mode and going up to rent 40 in performance 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:40.300 mode. We took images of the PlayStation 5 to a flea or thermal 00:07:40.300 --> 00:07:43.700 imaging camera again with Spider-Man running infidelity 00:07:43.700 --> 00:07:46.500 mode the hottest point what's 38 degrees Celsius in the front, 00:07:46.500 --> 00:07:50.300 which is a little over a hundred degrees Fahrenheit and 38.8 00:07:50.300 --> 00:07:53.500 degrees Celsius from the side or 101.8 degrees Fahrenheit 00:07:53.500 --> 00:07:58.000 movie Miles Morales to Performance mode hit 39.5 Celsius 00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:00.700 in the front little over a hundred 3 degrees Fahrenheit 00:08:00.700 --> 00:08:02.200 and 38.4 degrees. 00:08:02.200 --> 00:08:05.500 Celsius is 1 degrees Fahrenheit outside. 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:09.500 Bonita side panels that are dust catchers on both sides of the 00:08:09.500 --> 00:08:12.900 system which Sony says you can remove the dust from and this 00:08:12.900 --> 00:08:15.900 difference from the Xbox here is a text which doesn't have a easily 00:08:15.900 --> 00:08:17.700 accessible way for users to clear. 00:08:19.900 --> 00:08:23.000 You can upgrade the storage on a PS5 much like you can on a 00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:25.300 PC underneath the right side panel. 00:08:25.300 --> 00:08:28.800 There's a slot for an m.2 SSD that supports the latest pcie 00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:32.600 4.0 standard used to remove the side panel by taking off the 00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:36.100 stand laying the system on a side pulling on the back corner 00:08:36.100 --> 00:08:38.000 of the panel and sliding it off. 00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:41.600 There's a small door held in by a single Phillips head screw 00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:45.700 that you have to remove but you're in here's the rub at launch 00:08:45.700 --> 00:08:48.600 the PlayStation 5 is not enabled to use the secondary drive 00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:51.400 just yet. So neat old Tom's Hardware that this will be unable 00:08:51.400 --> 00:08:54.700 to Future software update, but did not provide from timing 00:08:54.700 --> 00:08:57.900 and there's also no no list currently of which drives have been 00:08:57.900 --> 00:09:01.300 tested to work best for which steps one should aim for this 00:09:01.300 --> 00:09:04.700 will help her become a must for some Gamers as the 825 you divide 00:09:04.700 --> 00:09:07.600 SSD is actually a lot smaller when you include the OS and other 00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:13.100 pre-installed software hours started adjust 667.2 kg be one of 00:09:13.100 --> 00:09:15.900 the biggest and that features the PS5 is actually the new controller 00:09:15.900 --> 00:09:19.100 that do assets ends up Rumble isn't the only game in town. 00:09:19.900 --> 00:09:23.300 Chersonese new controller has the same basic shape has 4 controller 00:09:23.300 --> 00:09:26.700 Dualshock 4, but it also feels more premium and has a new design 00:09:26.700 --> 00:09:29.300 and there's several features that the potential to change 00:09:29.300 --> 00:09:31.700 the way we experience games at its best. 00:09:31.700 --> 00:09:35.600 This feels more next-gen than even the PS5 graphical improvements. 00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:38.900 There's a 2-ton design hear this primarily white though, 00:09:38.900 --> 00:09:42.300 there's some areas with black as a PlayStation button bumper 00:09:42.300 --> 00:09:45.400 stickers. It's all pretty familiar a light bar has been moved 00:09:45.400 --> 00:09:48.000 from the top to around the touchpad and now it charges over 00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:50.200 USBC I 280 grams. 00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:52.000 It is noticeably heavier, though. 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:55.400 It does have a bigger battery than the Dualshock 4 controller 00:09:55.400 --> 00:09:58.800 is the speakers and why you still at the touchpad which supports 00:09:58.800 --> 00:09:59.700 two points and clicking. 00:09:59.700 --> 00:10:02.800 There's also the share button light bar speaker to microphone 00:10:02.800 --> 00:10:05.700 pass through Rumble has been changed with haptic feedback 00:10:05.700 --> 00:10:08.900 by two separate actuators like a more extreme version of Nintendo 00:10:08.900 --> 00:10:11.800 switches HD rumble on YouTube. 00:10:11.800 --> 00:10:15.100 That's like an Astros play run to me to plunk is the main character 00:10:15.100 --> 00:10:18.100 builds in the water while in Spider-Man is Miles Morales. 00:10:18.100 --> 00:10:19.700 It sends a vibrating pulse menu. 00:10:19.900 --> 00:10:24.300 Venom electrical attack trigger system that changes how much 00:10:24.300 --> 00:10:25.700 pressure you need to press down. 00:10:25.700 --> 00:10:28.500 This is used to great effect and Spider-Man as you swing through 00:10:28.500 --> 00:10:31.200 the city more like you're actually shooting webs yourself. 00:10:32.200 --> 00:10:35.500 A microphone built into the PS5 let you do things like blow 00:10:35.500 --> 00:10:36.900 into the controller to move objects. 00:10:36.900 --> 00:10:39.600 They should also lie to chat without headphones that you can 00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:41.300 use the controller with a dedicated button, 00:10:41.300 --> 00:10:44.100 but touchpad still largely feels beginner. 00:10:44.100 --> 00:10:46.400 But all the other stuff is at least somewhat exciting. 00:10:46.400 --> 00:10:49.500 I do worry that these features won't be supported by third-party 00:10:49.500 --> 00:10:52.400 developers. You also make games for Xbox PC and Nintendo 00:10:52.400 --> 00:10:54.400 switch as well streaming services. 00:10:55.500 --> 00:10:57.800 PlayStation buttons no longer a circle. 00:10:57.800 --> 00:10:58.500 It's not a huge deal. 00:10:58.500 --> 00:11:01.700 But it took me a little bit of time to get used to additional 00:11:01.700 --> 00:11:04.200 e on finding the deal since the last a little longer than the 00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:07.900 Dualshock 4 at least anecdotally but only slightly so expect to 00:11:07.900 --> 00:11:09.100 top it off fairly often. 00:11:11.400 --> 00:11:14.700 Anyone who has used a PlayStation 4 will be right at home on a 00:11:14.700 --> 00:11:18.600 PS5. So there was some new features especially in game that 00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.100 are different by the initial exam of your light out the home 00:11:22.100 --> 00:11:24.300 screen starts the list of your games in applications 00:11:24.300 --> 00:11:27.300 listed in order of their last use though. 00:11:27.300 --> 00:11:29.600 There are some parts that are pants like the PlayStation 00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:33.300 store and the experimental explore tab games and media have 00:11:33.300 --> 00:11:38.700 been separated is a new element similar to guide on Xbox that 00:11:38.700 --> 00:11:42.000 is available. When you press the PS button to bring up the menu 00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:45.000 that can take you home switch between games see notifications 00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:48.500 checker game days to join parties with friends music adjust 00:11:48.500 --> 00:12:00.100 the microphone receiver status of Link accessories the PS5 case 00:12:00.100 --> 00:12:03.300 of short video every time you want a trophy on your in-game. 00:12:03.300 --> 00:12:05.700 It may tell you about how much progress you've made towards 00:12:05.700 --> 00:12:08.200 the current folder Mission along with what in-game rewards 00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:09.000 may be involved. 00:12:10.300 --> 00:12:14.300 Video clips if you are a PlayStation Plus subscriber can be run 00:12:14.300 --> 00:12:17.800 over late on to the game or snap to the side which introduces 00:12:17.800 --> 00:12:20.200 some black bars above and below the game. 00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:23.000 The big question I have is how many third-party developers 00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:24.200 will utilize the cars there. 00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:26.700 Henschel, but it's a neat idea that's deeply integrated 00:12:26.700 --> 00:12:27.600 with the system. 00:12:29.300 --> 00:12:32.200 One big Advantage the PS5 has the start of this generation 00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:35.900 is that there are some exclusive Zante won Astros playroom 00:12:35.900 --> 00:12:39.100 is pre-installed and Demon's Souls Sackboy a big adventure 00:12:39.100 --> 00:12:43.300 and Marvel Spider-Man Miles Morales are all available destruction 00:12:43.300 --> 00:12:45.500 All Stars, which is going to be a launch title has been delayed. 00:12:45.500 --> 00:12:49.500 A number of third-party games are console exclusive to the PS5 00:12:49.500 --> 00:12:53.200 like God fall and bugs next and third-party titles will be releasing 00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:56.100 on multiple platforms including Assassin's Creed Valhalla 00:12:56.100 --> 00:13:00.600 NBA, 2K 21 in fortnite that will all come to PS5 and there's 00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:03.500 more to look forward to like cyberpunk 2077 and Call of Duty 00:13:03.500 --> 00:13:05.000 Black Ops Cold War. 00:13:05.900 --> 00:13:10.300 PS5 supports backwards compatibility with PS4 games both digital 00:13:10.300 --> 00:13:14.700 and on disc including those with psvr Sony has listed just 10 00:13:14.700 --> 00:13:16.100 games compatibility issues. 00:13:16.100 --> 00:13:19.700 Additionally Sony has added PlayStation Plus collection 00:13:19.700 --> 00:13:23.200 to a Playstation Plus subscription program, which allows PS5 00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:26.200 owners to digitally download and play popular PS4 games like 00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:29.700 God of War The Last of Us remastered Fallout 4, 00:13:29.700 --> 00:13:33.300 Battlefield 1 Uncharted 4, a thief's end The Last Guardian 00:13:33.300 --> 00:13:35.500 Resident Evil biohazard & More 00:13:37.700 --> 00:13:40.800 The PlayStation 5 isn't just an evolution over last-gen. 00:13:40.800 --> 00:13:44.500 It's an outright statement that with more power better technology 00:13:44.500 --> 00:13:47.700 the strategy that work for the last few years will be even better. 00:13:47.700 --> 00:13:51.400 Now many of the games that will Define the early months of the 00:13:51.400 --> 00:13:54.900 PlayStation 5 like Spider-Man Miles Morales Sackboy a big adventure 00:13:54.900 --> 00:13:58.500 and even Horizon forbidden West the latter of which is set to 00:13:58.500 --> 00:14:02.700 be released in 2021 will also come to the PS4 mean you can still 00:14:02.700 --> 00:14:05.300 enjoy upcoming PlayStation Studios title under current system. 00:14:05.300 --> 00:14:08.900 But the exclusive is also a part of a strong launch library 00:14:08.900 --> 00:14:11.900 for those who want the latest and greatest if it's not the SSD 00:14:11.900 --> 00:14:14.600 in the new GPU that makes games feel like next-gen if the new 00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:18.000 DualShock controller which literally feels next gen and I can't 00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:21.600 wait to see what developers take the technology on paper to the 00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:24.900 series X is the stronger system but faster more powerful 00:14:24.900 --> 00:14:27.500 specs, but it will take time to see if the PlayStation 00:14:27.500 --> 00:14:31.100 5 falters the first impression suggest plenty powerful in its 00:14:31.100 --> 00:14:31.500 own, right? 00:14:32.300 --> 00:14:36.500 PS5 may not be the prettiest to the quietest but it's modernized 00:14:36.500 --> 00:14:38.100 its powerful and it's fast as hell. 00:14:38.100 --> 00:14:41.500 It will need some time to meet his full potential for with a mix 00:14:41.500 --> 00:14:44.000 of exciting first and third party games and exciting technology. 00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:47.000 The PS5 has a heck of a future ahead of it.
