There isn't a single bone in my body whatsoever that regrets the purchase of this console. I was perfectly happy with my ps4 and I did not need to upgrade at the time. However, I decided that I work hard enough. I deserve to have a little fun too so, thanks to some specials for Black Friday, I splurged on this unit for my husband and I and we've been addicted ever since. The graphics are insane and the games really come to life versus the previous console. The integrated 3D surround sound is fun to have in general, but when used with a headset- as recommended- it is a whole other gaming experience. I purchased this unit specifically because of the limited edition God of War themed console due to my die hard devotion and love of the series. Kratos is king in the PlayStation universe for me and I love playing those games from the very original first streamed across PlayStation plus to the latest game where every time once triumphant I proclaim that I am the god of war! Meanwhile, I will say that I'm a little disappointed in Sony just because of the fact that I think this console is hideous and ugly. As much as I love it's technology, it's just an eyesore and not my favorite thing at all. I have it practically hidden at the moment so that I don't have to look at it at every second. It gets pretty hot when in use no matter how you had it set up (or which group you fall into for the online debate of whether to set it horizontal or vertical) The last generation console was at least sleek in somewhat fashionable. This is big bulky and I hate the fact that it only comes in white. Even after purchasing we knew we would need an extra controller like we have purchased previously for other PlayStations. So I immediately purchase the midnight black controller for myself which I love and I'm happy with. Aside from the looks, I'm not very happy with the UI in that it's very hard to find a web browser available on the PS5. On PS4 It was easily integrated and easily found So that should you need to go online or surf online, do anything on any website you could easily do so. In this unit, you'll be hard pressed to find it. I have found the web browser once or twice in the 4 to 6 months. I've owned the console but if I were to be asked to specifically go in and go to the browser, don't ask me because I can't find it anymore. Also, while I understand the branding and the companies wanting to continue their monopoly on the purchase of their own products in a set line, I really hope that Sony would integrate the ability to have Bluetooth available to connect for outside audio sources. Unfortunately, once again that is not the case. There are a few ways that you can work around this should you want to game with your home, entertainment, sound system or stereo, but I'm not going to bother here with those little hacks They can easily be found online and truth be told, many of them don't even work. I think the least Sony could do is allow external speakers to be paired in the Bluetooth function because to experience the games fully you need to integrate not just the picture quality and headset sound - But for those who don't care for headsets - the sound of your environment. I will say, even though I'm not a huge fan of wearing headset during playing that I'm quite impressed with the ability of my new LG TONE FREE T90Q earbuds to easily connect the case to the system itself - or also via Bluetooth - and with these earbuds, it's a whole other level of gaming. They were the first on the market to successfully integrate spatial audio head tracking and Dolby Atmos and all of these wonderful features shine beautifully in combination with the PS5. Currently I am playing and semi-addicted to the PS5 game STRAY.

I purchased the PS5 to play in my free time and to get me to stop working on the weekends(Crazy sentence, I know...) Anyway, I am thoroughly impressed with the console and would 1000% recommend it. I've had a blast so far not only with the graphics but the controller... Let's take a few moments to talk about that. The adaptive triggers and vibrations are next-level immersive. I loved them so much that I platinumed ASTRO's PLAYROOM before I even downloaded another title. Went to Spiderman, then Rachet & Clank. While working on trophies in these games I played with my PC buddies on Warframe. I've had such an amazing time. As I download more games I can understand how people complain about the default storage, though if you're not playing a lot of live service games you should be fine. As long as you pay attention to the space left on your console. I've got 10 games installed with 150gb leftover. 3 of which are live service games.

Performance and graphics are unlike anything I have ever played except for some of the top gaming PCs which cost significantly more than the PS5. Controller feels nice and it's good to be able to play Blu-ray media. Wish internal storage could be larger

The PS5 is everything you want in a gaming console and more. The load times are practically nonexistent, the graphics are jaw-dropping, and the DualSense controller really pulls you into the game with its haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. It feels like you’re actually part of the action. Plus, the design is sleek and futuristic, though it takes up some space. If you can get your hands on one, it’s a game-changer—literally.
