Are you guaranteed to get a PS4 with firmware 5.05 or lower if you buy it now?

When SpecterDev tweeted about the upcoming 5.05 PS4 exploit, I got excited because pretty much all PS4s in stores today are “most likely” to
ship with firmware 5.05 or lower. Is it 100% the case though?

Unfortunately, multiple people have reported that they have bought new PS4s that shipped with firmware 5.50, or even the recently spotted, but unusual, firmware 5.07.

Specifically, developer Joonie mentioned he got a PS4 Pro, bought in April, that shipped with firmware 5.50. Twitter user @Faycal31oran also mentioned getting a Pro with firmware 5.50.

Additionally, at least two people have told me they bought PS4s that shipped with firmware 5.07. One was in Japan (that person contacted me by email), and the other one in
Spain. In both cases, these were PS4 Slims. It’s unclear at this point if 5.07 is fundamentally different from 5.05. There’s a possibility it is vulnerable to the exploit in firmware 5.05 but that hasn’t been confirmed yet.


サイクルが早い量販店じゃ5.50になってるんじゃ、日本から5.07の報告もあるって
