The PS5 Pro shipping and delivery thread

By the way I did not destroy my box like I said a would 😂😜

Just received it 10 minutes ago.
Gonna go take a 30 minutes power nap and then start the whole setup process (have to also restore my previous PS5 data).

On a side note : fucking Sony man, this has to be the WORST and CHEAPEST packaging and unboxing experience in the history of (expensive) electronic devices, I've received Chinese products from Amazon that had better packaging for fuck's sake...
How cheap can you fucking be ? Zero protection for the actual, 800 Eurodollars product that's inside...
Oh wait, let me guess, "it's eco friendly®", amirite ?

This fucking company man...

PS: I still remember unboxing my XSX, that packaging was a thing of beauty in comparison to both the base PS5 and this...shite

Actually not that big and a lot better looking than the original.

Also, if you notice my grandson’s toes, they are just curled. He is not retarded, not retarded. I don’t believe, anyway.

Edit: he ripped the box, my God how could someone have the audacity. Even at 2!

Got mine! Man the difference it makes for FF7 Rebirth is fantastic, no more vaseline smeared 60fps mode. It's glorious.
I feel this was more incompetence from square enix. The base resolution on base ps5 is 1440p in 60fps mode and should look a lot better than it does

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
Delivered, gotta wait 4 hours to finish work to begin the transfer 🙄
Gonna test some PS4 games with bad IQ other than Bloodborne and see if there's any difference

Wife loves her ducks in her Wrangler!
So does my wife, we have 18 in the dash that are her favorites and well over 100 in a bag in the house

But we do a lot of Jeep rides especially in Cades Cove with the great Smoky Mountains Jeep Invasion and we get tons of ducks while there
IIIIIIIII don't know... where I come from if you're driving a Jeep, you are the wife...
Then you are driving the wrong kind of Jeep :)

I did just get a new Bronco if that helps though

She bought a new Wrangler back in 2017, but just traded it in for a new 2024 Wrangler a month ago. We were considering checking out one of the Jeep Jamboree trips, as they have one in Wisconsin where we live. Funny thing....wife (and I) had no idea that the ducks were a thing. Well one day she was coming out of Walgreens and saw a duck on her door handle. She swatted it down. Came home and proceeded to tell me that she thinks maybe someone was trying to stalk her because they put a duck on her Jeep. 😂 Then she saw a Wrangler driving with a ton of ducks in the window. She Googled it, laughed, and now puts them in her window and she ordered some green ones to give people secretly as well (green because she is of Irish heritage).

ARGHHH I missed the delivery guy and now I have go get it from the UPS store
Seriously I hate it when that happens. Did they arrive earlier than the listed timeframe? Just curious as I'm waiting on them as well.
 
This delivery threads make me glad I canceled and just going to walking into gamestop with my old PS5. Unfortunately will have barely anytime to play until Saturday evening. Thinking of telling my wife we are doing our own thing tonight but she wont like that.

Well they sent it out for delivery from a depot pretty far away (like 40 minutes away from where I live) so I didn't expect it to come until the afternoon. But apparently that mf drove straight to my place because they attempted delivery an hour later

Dang! I wonder how they work out the routes they take, perhaps some items count as priority due to size or estimated price? Sorry for the hassle, hope you get it pronto.

My wife is really into the ducking, she ordered "spooky" ducks for Halloween, passing out vampire, werewolf and frakenstein ducks at a recent car show we went to

First thoughts:
-One of the lamest unbloxing experiences ever
-Completely silent, no coil whine or anything
-Surprisingly small
-Damn, transfering data with wifi is

UPS delivering mine between 3:45-7:45.

Hope they have the “follow my delivery” option so I can watch the truck come maddeningly close to my house several times as it zigzags all around my town.

Just grabbed my system from Best Buy.... there was a line and I saw four others get sold and picked up. Good sign for Sony.

Sony needs to step up their unbox game with PS6.

One thing MS did do well was the series x unboxing experience. At least we can say that's one good thing lol

I ordered mine on Amazon and was originally expecting on Nov. 11th. But, just got an email that it has been shipped and it'll be here tomorrow. (Nov. 8th) Hopefully this is going to work out the same for you guys that ordered one on Amazon too.
