    Everything about it shows next gen. The menu is interesting. How it plays games with the updated specs is true an experience. I can't wait for what's to come.

    Waited so long for this PlayStation, I gave it to my boys as a gift for my 23rd year wedding anniversary this past November. I had it hidden for about a week but could not wait until they opened it so we could set the system up to our 65” Samsung NEO QLed 8K TV. To our disappointment even after the big firmware update Sony did for the Samsung TV 4k issue, we were and unable to receive a 4K resolution. We are only to choose a 1080P resolution with 4K option stating unsupported, again we have the newest Samsung Neo 8K TV . Sony has not been Unable to solve our issue after two attempts. First rep hung up on us after stating our TV does not support 4K resolution even though we gave him our model number and repeat it it is an 8K television, so we called a second time right after being hung up on the second rep was a pleasure to deal with he felt our pain even though he was unable to resolve our issue and stated we just have to wait and see what Sony does for future firmware updates. The only thing I can come up with is that with the new Samsung neo 8k TVs they have what they call an Attachable Slim One Connect that you hook all of your HDMI connections to. Sony is going to have to take into consideration like the last firmware update for the sound bar connection with Samsung televisions.

    Best one yet. The dual sense controller is amazing. The games load lightning fast and it runs cool with almost no fan noise. I have no regrets about this purchase.

    The PS5 is perfect and even better than a pc in every way. You get 4K, 120hz, Ray Tracing, and instant load times so you will never have to see a loading screen again.

    In a time where the ps5 was really difficult to obtain, best buy came through in the clutch. It was difficult trying to get it in my cart (as it was for most retailers at drop time because of the traffic), but with a little stubbornness, I was able to complete my transaction. I put a typo in my billing address initially, and thankfully best buy's systems holds onto your purchase and allows you to make the corrections. Otherwise I would have lost my purchase and ruined Christmas. The recipient of the gift is very happy with his ps5, so I have no complaints. One day I might even by one for myself.
