    The leap in this gen tech is extremely noticeable, all in part of the m.2 ssd. Consoles of the past were always limited by their mechanical 5400 rpm drive speeds. This make a huge difference not just in loading games faster, but rendering textures 360 in real time versus what your currently seeing only your camera angle is huge in tech leap.

    Powerful, Smooth and Quiet in a Wonky Form

    Quiet, smooth and does everything the PS4 did but soooo much better. Transfering of games was painful, but aside from that everything has been simple and flawless. A little large on wonky shaped, so it makes finding a home on your entertainment center a little difficult. Performance, being of the utmost importance, is on point as to what Sony advertised.

    What can i say that hasnt already been said? This is the 4K gaming console we've been waiting for. Being able to play console games with ray tracing at higher FPS is what the console world has needed. Pair this with a quality TV and you're in for a treat.

    It took a while but I was finally able to get one for grandson. Been trying since his birthday back in March. He was so grateful and he loves it. The graphics and the system is everything they said is. Played some games with him and I love the controller. Took long enough but was worth the patience and the wait. Need to get one for myself now.

    Was fortunate to get one at launch before the chip shortage. It's a fantastic console. I've enjoyed playing the games upgraded to 4k 60 fps. Demon Souls looks absolutely breathtaking. I still wish the PlayStation 5 retained the black aesthetic from the previous 3 consoles but the white/grey looks great as well. I wish you all the best in getting the console.

    Great product!! My son absolutely loves his PlayStation5. Setup: The PlayStation was easy to set up, he watched tons of in unboxing videos and those from Sony. Graphics: The graphics is awesome, even me as the parent gets caught up in the games-very captivating. The interactive controller with the built in speaker is awesome!!

    I skipped PS3 & PS4. Finally got pulled the trigger on the PS5, do not regret it. The console is amazing, the controller is smooth and comfortable, especially since I have big hands. The haptic feedback is awesome and the games are even more incredible. Since it is backwards compatible with PS4 titles, I can catch up on major first party games. Amazing console and glad I switched

    I've been an XBOX loyalist from the beginning and I decided to try something new, so I bought a Sony PS5 and I'm blown away at the graphics, the speed and the realism of the games. Even though I have a disc drive, my plan is to move to a more digital library. I highly recommend this console for those who are looking for a change in video gaming.

    Love it! Its amazing and so are the IT guys that defended the website against bots so I could get it before Thanksgiving. Graphics and speed are unmatched. Love the feel of the controller, the haptic feedback is awesome, can't wait to see more of what the console has to offer with its future games. Even Cyberpunk while has some issues work great in its reverse compatability

    I highly recommend buying a PS5. Gaming load times are mostly a thing of the past and updates are much quicker than older generation systems. The only drawback is the amount of room to download games. I highly recommend buying a Gen 4 NVMe card to install in the system, super easy to do, to increase your storage.
