Been so happy with mine during the Beta.

 

[Deleted member 10044]

Still no VRR. It's a shame.

 

[dstarMDA]

We're also expanding mobile features with support for PS Remote Play over mobile networks starting tomorrow, and the ability to view Share Screen broadcasts on PS App beginning next Thursday, Sept. 23.

That's fantastic.

For real…

Excited to pop in and the new SSD. Modding FTW

 

[LebGuns]

This has probably been asked a thousand times, but what's the best PS5 SSD to go with?

 

[Ozorov]

Still no VRR. It's a shame.

That and 1440p-support next time, I hope 🤡

Let's get folders first ;)

 

[Fliesen]

PS App still not giving you easy access to your gameplay recordings is just suuuuuuuuuper lame.

 

[GrimGrinningGuy]

I shoulda bought that ssd that was on sale last week

Sony's a bit behind in OS features with covid I think. So instead of having to beg for folders for a year, we're going to have to beg for folders for at least 18 months.

 

[zombiejames]

SSD upgrades for all.

 

[Rendering...]

But what about stability?

 

[Transistor]

That's fantastic.

Once they allow me to use a DualSense on Android, I will be the happiest man in the world. Maybe this will stealth be a part of it.

 

[LAA]

Finally! Excited for the SSD and vertical trophy lists in particular.

 

[WhtR88t]

Stoked for cellular remote play. Not expecting much in terms of latency but will probably be good enough for getting daily's and stuff.

Also now need to go SSD shopping.

 

[jwk94]

Yooo, being able to view Share Screen on the mobile app is huge! Used it to play Detroit with my friend last week. Will definitely be using it next month for the next Dark Pictures game.

 

[LaytonWright]

Yay finally!!

 

[Kyubajin]

What about the "new" trophy vertical view and trophy tracking?

 

[Potoskull]

What are the chances something like a Sonos Arc would work with 3D audio if I'm running it through eARC built into the TV?

 

[Noisepurge]

Mobile data remote play, finally :D

 

[benzy]

The listed features don't include everything right? Where's the option to disable the Share Capture notification icon and video timer from the beta?

 

[8byte]

We need a good thread with SSD options & discussion.

 

[terrible1fi]

So what is the consensus on good SSD's that come with heat sink?

 

[JigglesBunny]

All we need now is VRR, folder support and 1440p resolution and we're golden, Sonyboy.

 

[kurahador]

Click to shrink...

Any supported SSD and third party heatsink will suffice.

 

[DominicanGlory]

They didn't mention trophies in the video...?

 

[Bishop89]

No mention of the trophy update. Booooo!

 

[Ferdie]

No VRR after almost a year is pathetic.

 

[Kwigo]

Looking forward to the SSD discussions on Era the next few weeks before I buy one :)

 

[Deleted member 81269]

There is one.

 

[Qwerty Keyboard]

Not everything is covered in the video, the blog has more.

side note, making threads on mobile on this site is truly fucking awful.

 

[Deleted member 1003]

No one is getting folders until the UX receives more changes.

 

[EssBeeVee]

Earlier than expected. was kinda expecting october.

[W17LY]

Aaaaaaaand no VRR.

Why the hell is taking Sony so much time to bring VRR to PS5?

 

[Ahti]

Great news. Finally!

No mention of the trophy update. Booooo!

Click to shrink...

I don't think these "8 things" are the full list of changes.
I don't think they really felt like including "we changed trophies so they present in a more readable fashion because the horizontal trophy list was a buck wild crazy idea" in the video.

Rumored to be coming in December alongside the VRR update for compatible Bravia televisions.

[giancarlo123x]

YES! I can finally fucking install this ssd I've had for over a month collecting dust.

 

[Narpas Sword0]

I don't see anything about the fix to being forced to stream your own voice when in a party? That was in the beta right?
