don’t care about fidelity

As someone who hasn't used a console for gaming since uh, the original xbox, is this doesn't care about fidelity, or is it if you don't pick the performance mode you get 15fps?

30FPS at 4K or 60FPS at 1080P or 1440P.

In reality, a lot of games aren't even hitting 4K on the one side or 60FPS on the other.

Either of which seem reasonable enough.

I'm just confused who is spending $700+ for a gaming console if the one that's $200-300 less seems to be fine?

I'm old and out of touch I guess. (And do all my gaming on a Ally Z1 non-extreme these days which is an absolute potato compared to either of these PS5s and it's also... fine.)

Well, it's not out yet, and so far, I'm not $700 impressed. :) But then 30fps and 60fps look the same to me as long as there are no frame drops. Smooth is smooth.
