Customer Ratings & Reviews

Coming from PS4 to PS5 is definitely a upgrade. Load times are faster. Expandable storage is lacking but I'm hoping in future firmware upgrades like Sony promised will resolve this issue. For now get a USB-C expandable HD for PS4 games only. The controller is definitely next gen...I'm hoping in the future more game adapt to this controllers capabilities. All on all no regrets. Patiently waiting for more folks to get on PS5.

Having luckily acquired my PS5 back on Jan 22nd, and having been out of the current console adopters since the PS2, I can say that the PS5 has been a blast to have. Unexpectedly, I've been getting a ton of enjoyment out of catching up on missed out blockbuster titles via the Playstation Store and Playstation Plus (the subscription service needed to play online games, but also features access to some free games). With this in mind, I'm feeling the limitations of precious storage space the PS5 allows. It's nice to be able to delete a game and be able to re-download it without losing your saved progress, but investing in extra storage space has made this feel less of a hassle (I'm awaiting a Samsung T7 1 TB SSD from Best Buy for pickup). Other than the rather limiting storage space, the only other annoying aspects I've found with the console is the unexpectedly huge size of the console (toting this to a friend's house requires a duffle bag lol) and the sorta loose fitting of the PS5 stand when using the console in horizontal position. The stand will stay put and allow the console to come undone from it if you move the PS5 to reposition it for whatever reason. Just remember to pick up the console, and don't slide it and this won't be an issue. Beyond those small nitpicks, I'm incredibly satisfied with the PS5. While I've been out if the current-adopter club for a while, I've been a day-one adopter of gaming consoles since the original Playstation, and a long time gamer since the Atari 2600 days. For me, the PS5 has been worth the hard effort of obtaining the console.

ps5 is a great console with great graphics the look of the console is a miss for me it's too big doesn't mesh well with my set up but love the new dual sense controller resistance triggers are awesome and the haptic feedback is top notch it's definitely a step up from the dualshock 4 controller

Best console in the market, really powerful, fast, and quiet!

The next Revolution in gaming is here! Was lucky to get one in the pre-order and have enjoyed every minute of playtime! The haptic feedback feels like there's a tiny robot inside the controller that knows exactly how to make it feel like a thousand different sensations! The SSD is incredibly fast! With Miles Morales you can literally go from pressing start game on the home page to playing it in 10 seconds! MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A 4K TV FOLKS!

Great console graphics are great would recommed. The new god of war game performs great

Great game system. Use it everyday. Quiet when running. Is a bit large and takes up some space.

Amazing graphics, fast SSD , great exclusive games , PlayStation still the best

Not much more to say beyond what has already been said about this console. Amazingly speedy, very quiet, and beautiful graphical output make for a worthwhile upgrade from last gen consoles. The clincher though is the Dual Sense gamepad, though it might be a few months before we see games utilize its revolutionary features in a meaningful way. I feel very lucky that I managed to get one when I did. Don't regret whatsoever.

To me this is the biggest generational jump ever. I’ve been around for all of them. All of them are pretty significant when you look back at them but this one is the only one that gets backwards compatibility down in a way where most will work. The controller was the biggest change in a while (the PS4 DualShock 4 was essentially a DualShock 3 with a touch pad). The performance upgrade proportionally and cumulatively is the largest jump ever. In fact this is the closest the console community has ever been to PC performance while also maintaining a competitive advantage (unique and award winning exclusives that out perform triple A cross-platform titles). Honestly the ps5 made me sell my series x two days after I got it (it was easier to get the series X at first but I got lucky and got a ps5 bundle from BB). This is the best generational upgrade I have ever dealt with (not sure if those of you remember how weird the original PS3s could be depending on your TV and my PS4 had a hdmi reading problem that sorted out after a system update). Seriously cannot recommend the ps5 enough. Especially if you have PS4 or Xbox one, pro and X you might can wait for the ps5 to be more available, but it’s still worth the upgrade by a lot. People are treating it like it’s $1000. Like my phone cost double the amount of a ps5 disk and is nowhere near as impressive (Ik it’s “apple”s to oranges but from a hardware standpoint the PS5 and Series X price is pretty amazing). Best purchase of 2021 goes to the ps5, just kind of upsets me because it seems like nothing will top it and the year just started.

Must buy if you’re wanting to game and make it simple. Much cheaper than a high end gaming machine. Too bad you can’t upgrade the graphics, ram or processor like a pc. But you can upgrade your SSD Drive Only downside is PS Online is required for some games. To me this is wrong because you can’t play a game that you buy without paying for a subscription.

We are very happy with the new PS5. The graphics are way better. It also runs everything much faster.

Put this as visible as possible in my living room. Looks amazing and sleek! Performs very fast and so far flawless. Easy to setup and Cable is fairly long. Definitely recommend separate charger base for controller. Ssd could be bigger but glad they included an option to put one in. Best Buy was the only place I could actually get one without frustrations of system glitch.

This console is absolutely amazing. It’s so quiet compared to the PS4. The only time I hear anything is when the disc is being read from. It looks like a spaceship when I have it on the side on one of my shelves which I love. I just wish it had the quick resume feature and a few more teraflops. As far as speed and gameplay, it’s smoking fast. Load times are even better for Bloodborne. I’ve been having a blast with Demon’s Souls.

Process of ordering was great. Had tried with Walmart 4 times and would get all the way to hitting confirm order and it would say out of stock. Got the PS5 first try with Best Buy. The graphics for the games I have and the speed of the system are great. It’s a little bigger than I had expected but I’m just glad to have one. The system is really quiet and sometimes I forget it’s even on when streaming Netflix, etc... on it.

It was quite difficult to pre-order the PS5, but I truly lucked out because even with all the restocks certain retailers have had... it is still unbelievably hard to place the order. I hope anyone that still wants one gets one soon because it really is unfair that the gamers aren't able to land one whilst scalpers have thousands. The PS5 has run beautifully and so intelligently from what I've experienced. The set up was of course easy and fast. The new UI is smooth and I definitely like it more than the old one on the PS4. The Dualsense Controller is AMAZING. It is probably the next best thing (only second to the console itself) with the way it works. It's not as slippery like the Dualshock and feels great in hand. Even after hours of gaming, I did not feel any fatigue in my hands. The battery life is probably similar to its predecessor. Overall, the console runs very smoothly and I have not experienced any sort of loudness with it. I do recommend when playing games, to choose performance over the resolution. You will absolutely get a higher FPS and I think it just runs a lot better that way. Would highly recommend this to anyone that wants to experience next gen even though we've just merely begun to play those games.

Load times are ridiculously fast and graphics are amazing on 4K tv! The controller works well and is well designed. It was definitely worth the wait! Only hard part was trying to get one at times it was impossible! Definitely recommend it. I would have gotten the digital one but the disk is the one that showed up at checkout so I took it. If you want to save $100 bucks definitely try to get the digital version.

Its a PS5! What's there to say. Works really great with a modern TV. Convenient that it comes with a 2.1 HDMI cable. I wish that VRR was enabled for games, and that it came with larger storage, but m.2 SSD prices are on the decline so a good time to add to it. Additionally, if you dislike the white covers the new ones are out now so its easy to get a sleeker look.

Next-gen is legit! Surprised I was able to receive item on launch, and must say I’m blown away by the system! Graphics are amazing, load times are incredible, and quietness of system is impressive. Now negatives(I know) 1. The size of the system, shocked at actually how big it is!! 2. Amount of USB ports it has(3) 3. Bluetooth devices capable of using on system. Great system, would recommend 9/10 (Old Xbox fanboy lol)

It took me a while to get one, but I'm enjoying my PS5! The Controller is awesome and the tactile feedback is next gen. While playing Astrobot, the shooting and rocket firing haptic effect feels so different and cool. PS5 potential is unlimited. I hope it can be fully utilized in up-coming games. Unreal Engine demo was jaw-dropping. I'm looking forward to that level of graphical fidelity.
