There has been an issue with LG OLEDS since the C9 where sometimes you will get a CEC handshake error and get a no display or black screen with HDMi 2.1 consoles. LG have never fixed it for whatever reason it still happens on latest units.

Just be aware if you get this on your OLED it might not be the console. Generally powering the TV on first and waiting a bit before switching on the console is the fix but it does not always work especially coming out of standby. A power reset seems to work.

Interesting, I’ve never encountered this before but then I rarely put my OG PS5 in rest mode.

Anyone own the Pulse headset and attempted the 3D audio profile setup?

I recall on the OG, the profile setup was literally choosing the "height" but the Pro seems to have this sphere advanced setup which is highly odd. There are two sound types, the first a single positional beep which is mostly discernible and a wave effect. The wave effect, to my ears on occasion seems to sweep lower left to lower right or via versa but the choice is a band around the circumference so either my hearing is really borked or the profile setup is too restrictive.

Focus on the direction rather than the height. If it sounds horizontal (but low) choose the horizontal option

Got caught out needing to turn on usb power for charging the controllers in rest mode.

Eco default crazy. Why not have adaptive as the default.

Cos then they can’t advertise those numbers about power efficiency on the side of the box / regular adverts.

Yeah that’s what I thought too. Such a load of nonsense. Although I guess many might have dedicated charging docks.

Yep, that's what I have. My Dualsense Edge and regular live in the charging dock so I never really ever think about charging them!
 
Enjoying the pro still had a little blast again tonight on black ops 6 not long come off got work at 7am as well :( I've put my ear to the ps5 pro tonight from some of you mentioning it's noise levels yeah she's not the quietest console, id say definitely a louder fan noise than my OG ps5 and ps5 slims were. I think the coil whine is about the same also. I also seem to have a tiny chip from factory on my bottom left plate at the front no idea how they have managed that lol

My pros fans have settled down since the first day, yesterday I was playing the same games and noticed how much more quite it was.
Could be a case of internal things settling down after initial use.

What is there to settle down though, the fan is the only moving part surely.

Ah I get it. Is this like people who 'burn in' new headphones.

@t2na good point. Maybe if I had done that my GOW one would stop doing UFO sound effects.

I'm nursing mine in slowly as well. First week only PS4 games, 2nd week PS5 games, third week Pro enhanced games.

I think this gradually warms up the transistor electrodes and reduces long term overheating, hence lower fan speeds.
