    It's so much quicker and quieter than the PS4 it replaces. Just wish they weren't so hard to get your hands on.

    I played and its great the Spider-Man: Miles Morales By default, it runs in 4K at 30 fps with ray tracing and tons of graphical flourishes. Everything looks spectacular, especially the realistic reflections in water and glass. But, this being a Spidey game, I preferred the fluidity of performance mode at 60 fps, which drops ray tracing in favor of smoother overall visuals. It made zipping through the city feel far more thrilling, though I definitely missed the added realism of ray tracing in cutscenes.

    Love it so far. I skipped the last generation of consoles, so when my xbox 360 stopped reading discs, I needed a new console. Decided to try out Playstations for a change. It was hard to get one with all the shortages going on, but I managed. I'm satisfied with it so far. I like that it plays PS4 games, as well, since PS's haven't been backwards compatible in the past. Haven't needed to expand storage space yet, but I'm sure I will once the PS5 games I'm interested in come down in price a bit.

    So far it’s pretty slick. Easy to set up and transfer info from PS4. Use Ethernet cable for that though. Goes much faster

    The PlayStation 5 is a great system. Makes no noise when playing video games, unlike older generation consoles.

    I’m glad Best Buy had the PS5 during the Great Depression. Took me decades to snag the PS5. Thankfully Best Buy had it!!

    So far so good! We are having some issues figuring out how to transfer everything over from the PS4, but that is likely user error. A bit disappointed that this has less storage than the PS4 Pro. However, my son loves the graphics, new features with the remote, and other new features.
