Obviously, many PS5 owners are really enjoying some exclusives and all that. But when you think about it, you'll ask yourself the same question, did I really take advantage of the features my device has?

A question that may require a somewhat detailed answer, but the answer will probably be no. I'm not talking about games, but rather the experience itself, which will make your platform a truly next-gen one if you are a newbie to the previous generation platform, or even a user for two years.

Each update so far with the PS5 platform has made the console a great value in terms of usability and the experience itself has greatly improved communication. Now let's move on to the 9 most important features that you shouldn't miss when purchasing the platform or if you already own it.

Chat with your friends from any platform on Discord

Cross-play feature is something that I really recommend in multiplayer games like Call of Duty or Fortnite and other games. But the matter was incomplete due to the lack of communication between platform owners during gameplay, but the latest PS5 update has fixed this issue by adding Discord app on both Xbox platform and PC.

In the app, chatting with friends will be very easy, and once you are added to a chat group, the game will become more fun with the fun of chatting with friends.

Update the console wirelessly

There’s nothing worse than launching a game and finding out that your console needs a new update. Previously, this update required the console to be connected to the PS5 with any Type-c cable, but now it’s nice that you can download and install the update wirelessly. This has greatly improved the experience and has generated positive feedback among users in recent days.

Share your adventures with just your voice!

This feature is actually not the most important for all gamers, but it is still important if you are a content creator or even like to share images with friends on any communication site. During the game, you can ask the device to start recording screenshots of the game while you are engaged in an important battle or something similar, so that you do not get distracted by recording manually.

Get variable frame rate at 1440p resolution

Variable frame rate support arrived on the PS5 last year. It helps make the frame rate smoother and makes graphics look lower quality. With the new update, the feature will work with 1440p displays, which is good for somewhere in the middle between 1080p and 2K resolution. This feature still isn't the best for story-driven games and is more geared towards multiplayer games.

Save your time and access your game in group chat

You can now find friends in-game directly from the party chat. It’s a great time saver and will likely become a very important feature with continued use.

Finding out what your friend is playing just got easier

This feature is still a bit patchy, but it’s still a step in a good direction. On the Steam store, it’s easy to see which friends own or are actively playing a game of yours. There’s a small section with this information at the bottom of each game on the PS5 home screen.

My only issue is that you have to click to see which friends have it and it only tells you someone is playing this game if they are online within this game.

Another feature worth mentioning is seeing what your friend is playing. I rarely use screen sharing because if I’m online with a friend, we might be playing something together. But if you’re chatting with your friend, there’s a great shortcut to quickly see what someone is playing right from their profile.

Set your games and keep the list organized

Putting games into folders on the PS5 was something that the device didn't have, but with the device update it became possible, so you won't have to navigate through your entire list of games until you get to your game. This isn't the most important thing for many gamers, but it makes the device more organized.

Now you can see what's in the cloud

Many PS5 owners have had a PS4 in the past, but it was a bit difficult to know what was installed. Now you can get notifications for any PS4 games installed in the cloud so they can instantly start transferring to your PS5 system instead of wasting time looking for what's installed.
