Here’s a PlayStation 4 retail box sitting in a warehouse

PlayStation 4 retail units are arriving at warehouses and preparing to ship to retailers. 

RedFlag Deals forum member KelP068 shared an image of the retail unit sitting in the warehouse, and claims to have taken one home.

KelP068 shared some impressions on the system:

UI is VERY SMOOTH even on FW v1.00
Responsive just like the old XMB but faster.

Game loading is a bit slow the first time you load a new game… After installing data in the background, game loads up much faster initially and between levels… (Killzone SF installs almost all the game data on the PS4 HDD, but it does it in the background while the game is running. The initial background installation while running Killzone does have some slight slowdowns here and there on, but nothing too bothersome.)

*** I am thinking of trying to install a SSD on my PS4 to speed up the loading times even more… I will wait until v1.50 update is installed…

Dualshock 4 charging while the system is off is working on FW v1.00

Of course, considering we have no confirmation he actually has the system, take the quote with a grain of salt. PlayStation 4 launches next Friday, November 15.

Thanks, NeoGAF.
