  yeah, they the 5 uses wifi 6 chips… And not the first gen ones, the newer ones – should be solid for quite a while going forward! the only thing that would have been better would have been 6e chips, but those don’t start shipping until next year now :/

Is it just me or does this ps5 release seem weak. 70$ games plus 60$ a year and a 500$ console if you play disc. Plus no backwards compatibility on a system built on the same architecture as the ps4.

“No ps4 games can’t run on the ps5 they are way different” day 1 releases ps4 games on ps5 but not backwards compatible. No thanks I’ll keep my pro.

You can’t preorder and everyone at CNET that covers this stuff will get a free review unit so they don’t care. Expect biased reviews in favor of PS5 everywhere, but expect to be disappointed because most will not get it this year.
