Not necessarily. Sometimes network conditions matter more than rest mode.

Yup, PS5 downloads games faster in rest mode. The console uses less power and focuses solely on downloading files.

Yeah, rest mode can speed things up! It prioritizes downloads without background tasks interfering. My PS5 always seems quicker this way.

In my experience, leaving the PS5 in rest mode absolutely speeds up downloads. Power everything down and let it do its thing!
