    The PlayStation 5 is fantastic. With great looking and fantastic performance the ps5 takes gaming to the next level. The controller with nextgen rumble and adaptive triggers take immersion to the next level.

    Big but sleek new console. Plays my PS4 games very well from my library. Not many new PS5 games yet, but the new ones are pretty. The new controller is Sony's best so far. Good luck getting one in stock.

    Wow! The product sells itself. Impressed from graphics, response time and you can totally tell that your 4K is upscale. The downfall is the bulky items difficult to fit in tv center but over all good product

    After finally being able to get our hands on it, we LOVE it. The system is amazing and the controller is next-level good. Some specifics we found really cool was the haptic feedback from the controller.

    Finally got my hands on this thing. Love the graphics and how fast the processor is. My old downside is how long it takes to transfer everything from the old device to the new one and how hard its been to get your hands on a new ps5. Not best buy's fault though but sony itself. Other than that, I love the look of it and the white controller. Makes it look very modern.

    Best console ever created! I have been a gamer all my life dating back to Atari. Switched over to Sony with the original PS. But the PS5 by far exceeds any gaming console ever produced!

    Nice and sleek. Bang for your buck. Games that are enhanced for the new consoles run smoother and just the SSD alone is worth the upgrade. Load times and start-up improved and for me, that's worth it.

    The new PS5 is outstanding. It’s fast load in speeds, amazing long lasting controllers, graphics that blow your mind.... How could you go wrong. It’s a totally new system that is nothing like the old ones.

    Runs like a high-end PC, low on storage.

    What else is there to say? It’s the amazing, hard-to-get console that everyone and their mothers have been talking about for nearly two years now. Jumping from a PS4 to the PS5 was a massive jump in gaming fidelity: it runs like a high-end PC, but the fact that it has 825 GB of storage and even less than that is usable, you might want to go get an external hard drive to find storage for all of your games.

    PlayStation Continues to Surprise

    PlayStation has continued to set the standard with the gaming consoles. They continue to make quality products that last for years. The PlayStation 5 is no exception, the graphics, processor, and speeds are amazing. I also really like the new haptics found on the controller. The backwards compatibility is something we have all been hoping for since the PS3 and finally Sony has delivered. Also, another surprise was the ability to take my external HDD from my PS4 and plug it into the PS5 and was able to pick up right where I left off with all the games ready to play. And if you want to play PS4 games, you can still use your PS4 controller on your PS5 (when playing PS4 titles). Overall, more than impressed.

    Smooth running system, fast loading time and great graphics with no problems at all with this product. The controller is very ergonomic and the adaptive triggers are very adaptive for COD. Best console yet!

    So far I have no problema with this console. Download speed is so much faster than the ps4. Tge console makes litle to no noise. The only problem is that with 4 games install the memory is almost full.

    Truly Next Gen

    Despite the cat and mouse game needed to play to get your hands on a PS5 as of writing this review, I couldn’t be more excited for what the future holds in gaming. The Dualsense controller really makes the whole experience next-Gen. The adaptive triggers are crazy immersive and playing Mile Morales was incredible. Comparative to the PS4 the PS5 is dead silent. I could go on about all the cool new features and how great the system is. But honestly, you need to try it for yourself. Highly recommend if you are looking for a new console, just be patient.

    It's nice to have the option for a cheaper PS5 that makes no compromises, except that it doesn't have a disc drive. A good, fast system with a unique controller that has advanced haptic and rumble features.
