    PS5 is light years ahead of the PS4. My PS4 games load so much faster. What took minutes now take seconds. Graphics are super even giving older PS4 games a face lift. Learning curve was minimal taking just and evening. I would recommend you purchase a Samsung T7 SSD to store your PS4 games. PS5 games are huge and can only be run on the console, while PS4 can be run from the SSD.

    Finally got it about three weeks ago. I love this thing. So many user interface improvements over the PS4 system. One step back, a small one, is having to go into the system settings to upload or download game save files instead of the faster method from the dashboard. Loading is so much faster. We have a Samsung 4k hdr smart TV and the games look amazing on it. If you can get a hold of a PS5, it's definitely worth it.

    PS5 is awesome. Much faster, cleaner graphics. A huge upgrade. Would like more storage space though. Digital only has some limitations and doesn't open you up to picking up a cheap game that's a few years old. You're locked into paying whatever the digital cost is instead of getting a game in a few years at a garage sale or something like that. Not a big deal though, still 5 stars for a great console.

    Excellent console!! Idk about others, but I haven't had a single issue with my PS5. It's fast ssd makes the loading way faster, and on actual next gen titles the loading is pretty much non existent! The SSD comes in handy when it comes to downloads and it makes the UI wayyyy more streamlined than it's predecessor. That's not even touching the amazing upgrade that is the dual sense controller... It's truly an amazing experience.

    Overall: Excellent. The ability to find one of these in stock, with pickup available within a week (ready earlier than reported, even), was fantastic. The curb-side service was great, too! And the console is amazing. Comes with a bunch of free games, and while the UI is very different than the PS4, I can't complain, as everything else about it is wonderful! Specifically, the loading times and visuals are top-notch!

    I love this console, although it does have some issues. It will randomly shut down while I’m playing a game, and it is kind of hard to find things using the interface at times. I can’t use the “turn on” button to also put into rest mode. There is additionally a pretty low amount of storage with no current way to expand it (for ps5 games). That being said, it is still worth the buy. The haptic feedback isn’t very obvious or impressive on games that aren’t Astro’s Playroom, but the controller is still great. It fits perfectly in my hands and handles well. I am an Xbox player also and I found the transition to this controller pretty easy/smooth. The loading and download times are noticeably faster, and there are great games included on playstation plus that are worth checking out. I got this console because I wanted to experience the ps exclusives and I have been happy with that. If you don’t have a playstation 4 or are committed to having the most efficient console, I would recommend this.

    Yes their are not a ton of games currently, but extremely excited to finally pick one of these up. Super quick to load games. Look awesome on my Sony 4k and the dualsense is beyond impressive with the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers makes it a game changer. 2022 has quite a few exclusives rolling out and can’t wait to see the full potential of this awesome console!

    PS5 Review: Bigger is Better

    I had the ps5 for about a month and I can tell you that this is next gen gaming. I currently play about 5 ps5 games so far and the graphics are amazing. The controller makes the games feel next gen and everything about it is a upgrade. For those that haven’t gotten yet, there isn’t any rush but once it’s available at more stores, I wouldn’t hesitate to not buy it, With more games coming, it better to get it sooner than later.
