Finally picked up a new ps4 and literally the first time I powered it on I got a safe mode screen, I wasn't sure if that was normal but it didn't seem promising. I got it to boot normally and everything seems fine now - I've read that the safe mode boot seems to be a relatively common thing, maybe not on the first time you power it on but whatever. For anybody thats experienced this, how did it work out for you, should I consider returning/exchanging?

sorry please move to the ps4 forum. oops.

Safe mode happens when you hold the powerbutton for like 10 seconds or something.
