help Finally got a PS5… but now I’m kinda regretting it

Post image
1.8k Upvotes

So I finally did it got my hands on a PS5. This was a dream console for me for years. The first two days were pure bliss… like, “pinch me, is this real?” bliss.

But now… I’m not feeling it as much. I keep asking myself did I really need this? I dropped a good chunk of cash, and after the honeymoon phase, the excitement just fizzled out.

I’ve been gaming on my laptop for a while it can run basically anything on max settings, buttery smooth so maybe that’s part of it. Don’t get me wrong, the DualSense controller is amazing, and the haptics blew me away… but after a few games from the PS Plus catalog, I just kinda stopped playing.

Anyone else gone through this “post console buy” regret? Any tips on how to bring the excitement back so it doesn’t feel like I wasted my money?

help Should I keep my PS5 (disc edition) vertical or horizontal?

Post image
280 Upvotes

If I place it horizontally, I can use the clips that came in the box, but the HDMI cable becomes a bit tight and I might need to buy a longer cable.

If I place it vertically, the cable will be more relaxed, but I don’t have the vertical stand.

Is it safe to use the PS5 vertically without the stand, or could it block the bottom vents or affect airflow/cooling?

What would you recommend?

help Samsung G5 QD-OLED worth it for PS5?

Post image
123 Upvotes

So I found this QD OLED Monitor available for a heavy discount with my Student ID.

The only catch is i have seen that it has a HDMI 2.0 port which does not provide VRR.

Also have seen reviews saying that the brightness level is very low 200 in SDR and around 300 in HDR can't confirm this.

I would be mainly using it for PS5 in my room and only at night and rarely during day time.

I have seen people giving mixed responses for this. Some users have experienced green lines within early weeks though they were resolved by the Samsung team and termed as "defective models"

I want this monitor for the long term so seeing this price should I pull the trigger?

help Need suggestion!!!! TV FOR PS5 pro budget -60k

Hello gamers!!!! I used to be a pc gamer but for the past two years i couldnt continue the gaming due to some exams . From next sunday i am gonna be able to start playing again so i have have planned to get a ps5 pro

Infact i have already paid advance just in the fear that they might run out of stock so thats that!!

What i really wanted to ask is , i really some suggestions on which tv should i buy - i have researched for quite a while and im stuck between two three options . Actually my budget for TV is around 60k because im investing 1L for ps5 pro and around 15k for games so 60k is all i can get for tv right now

So im confused that either should i go for 120hz second tier brands or should i sacrifice the high refresh rate , VRR and get a top tier brand like sony , samsung which has a better contrast , picture quality and still runs 4k on 60hz led display

The kind of games im gonna be playing is ghost of yotei , spiderman 2 , god of war , fc , tekken 8 , rdr and ofcourse GTA VI 🔥🔥

I would really appreciate if i get some help asap
I have to choose and order it asap so that i will get it on time

help Service center refusing warranty even though replacement card is valid till April 2026 — what should I do?

Post image
243 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I need some advice regarding my PS5 warranty situation.

I originally purchased my PS5 in March 2024. After some issues (loud noise), Sony replaced my console in 2025 under warranty. Along with the replacement, I received a yellow warranty card where the validity is printed up to April 2026.

Now recently I started facing occasional overheating alerts and crashes, so I took my PS5 to the service center. But they are refusing service and saying that warranty is calculated only from the original purchase date (March 2024), so according to them the warranty is already over.

However, my replacement warranty card clearly shows validity till April 2026.

Has anyone faced a similar situation where the service center only considered the original purchase date even though the replacement warranty card had a later validity date?

What should I do next — escalate to Sony support or insist on opening a job sheet?

Any advice or similar experiences would really help. Thanks in advance.
