Pros & Cons
Pros
Dualsense is a bliss. The controller haptics are just awesome. Also ordered a oivo charging dock for the controllers to complete my casual-gamer mini setup.
Every ps5 game works on 60 fps with performance mode. Ps4 spiderman (non-remastered) also looks sharp and works incredibly smoothly. Also much quieter and less warmer than ps4 pro. All the best for ps5 pro, slim and ps6.
Moving to ps5 is a big jump. Go for it without any hesitation. Fast load time. No lag & stutter everything is smooth.
As for the disc drive risk, it's a lottery in this current batch. The disk drive works just fine. Updated the ps5 software first and then inserted the disc.
This is my first gaming console and im loving it so far. Although the storage is way too less at a mere 825gb yet it is a great gaming console. This playstation 5 gaming console is head and shoulders above any gaming console in its' price range.
Cons
I am now forced to buy the digital edition. Totally disappointed. What is the point of buying standalone?
The saddest part is the return window is also gone as i was nit available home to check it. Got a defective product. Returned and got refund.
Kay kay overseas has a history of selling fakes. I am surprised as to why there is no news about this and sony being such a well reputed company is releasing no statements about this.
Highlights

Price
However i did not know that the price was going to drop otherwise could have waited.
But you should also consider the price difference later.

The packaging of the replacement unit was so poor.
No amazon packaging used for my ps5 and the ps5 box was damaged on one side.
Competitiveness
I was lucky to receive a ps5 that didn’t have any disk issue.
Also much quieter and less warmer than ps4 pro .
If you are confused to purchase a ps5 or not, i would say just go for it.
Today i tried with a new ps5 disc and it worked perfectly.
