I’ve got a series X and a PS5 though Amazon lost my actual PS5 so I ended up using the one I was selling (at rrp) to another forumer.
Xbox looks miles better. Just a much more grownup design.
PS5 controller has cooler functions but they’re only really implemented well in one game right now. Also, it’s better than the DS4 in the hand but the XSX controller is still better ergonomically.
Front end of the PS5 UI is prettier but it’s skin deep. Actually usability is worse than Xbox by a long way. Especially some of the features it’s missing if you have a high TV. No VRR? Fuck off. No way to turn off the PS5 with a single button hold / press? Come on. Basic. No ability to store PS5 titles on external storage? Sigh. No Dolby vision?? Etc etc etc
PS5 definitely has better launch games. Astro is amazing and I completed it in pretty much one sitting. Dark souls looks incredible (but i suck at it). Enjoying playing through Spider-Man remastered before starting Miles Morales. But I have over 300 games I ‘own’ that play perfect on Xbox, not including all the new EA access stuff and 1st party stuff coming to game pass.
I’ll spend more time playing on the Series X but it’s nice to finally get to play some of the Sony exclusives.
