    Big improvement for graphics and load times vs PS4 pro, but user interface vs xbox series x and PS4 is a step backwards. Also crashes regularly when trying to awaken from sleep mode. Was able to mitigate this problem by shutting down instead of sleep mode which is ok because of the fast hard drive, but not ideal because controller does not charge when ps5 is shut down. Hard drive is fast, but small. Really weird how they handle games that have both a PS4 and ps5 version. Upgrading to ps5 version of games is really clunky vs Xbox’s smart delivery. Better exclusive games than Xbox.

    I really loved it! Since late 2020, it's almost impossible to get a PS5 due to scalpers using bots to buy all PS5 inventory and selling them at ridiculous high prices. I just got the bundle a few weeks ago and as soon I start it I was at awe for the console offered. I totally recommend this console to anyone.

    I've been around for this since Sega and Nintendo started duking it out with the Genesis and SNES. I started on NES, jumped over to the Genesis, and then landed with Sony when the original PlayStation came out. Social media trolls will forever bicker about tiny, irrelevant differences in TFLOPs, or extra features of very dubious value (how many two-generation-old games do you really want to go back and play again in upscaled 4K?), or whatever else they can dig out of the mud to justify their investment in the wrong platform. When it comes down to it, do you want to spend your $500 on what amounts to another run-of-the-mill hardware upgrade, or do you want to get all that along with real innovation, like a more immersive controller experience, true 3D positional audio that works with any headset, and a storage system that squeezes every drop of performance out of your SSD ? Do you want VR capability, both now and in the future? The best scene for exclusives? PlayStation is where you need to be.

    What can I say, I am really happy with my purchase this console is quite unlike my jet engine I used to own and I can confirm that after playing for more than 8-10 hours straight is was room temperature not hot at all, not to mention is fast and it has great graphics and the loading time man I love it.

    An amazing system couldn’t ask for more. Is great with oled tv a big difference between this and the PS4. At first their wasn’t much between the pro and 5 that were different but now that it’s been out their are so many more things. It is amazing and the new controller with the 3D vibration is like no other.

    Good console overral but some games lack optimization to hit a consistent 60 fps. With more exclusives coming in the future still a good buy.

    Huge Upgrade Over the PS4

    I don't think this item needs much of an introduction. If you liked the PS4, you'll love the PS5. Not the easiest to get your hands on one but if you do, you will not regret it! I mainly love the dualshock and it's integration. It is also very noticeably faster than the PS4 in every way.

    Phenomenal piece of hardware from Sony. The DualSense is a huge upgrade from the Dualshock 4. The user interface is easy to navigate and makes gaming feel more pristine. My only wish is that Sony eventually adds a firmware update that adds Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, etc. Cheers to the next 7 years of gaming!

    Best gaming console hands down. Controllers and triggers are great...except for the fact that both controllers I got already stick drifting. That's the only bad part.

    Sony continues to deliver with the PS5. Having exclusive launch titles with the release of the console. A powerful fast console handling big downloads swiftly and significantly lowering load time to the point they’re hardly noticeable. Everything about the pa5 feels like an upgrade when compared to its predecessor.

    The PS5 feels like a huge improvement over the PS4 Pro which I previously had. I didn't find the 3d audio to be quite as immersive as I was led to believe but the vibration and adaptive triggers make the controller so much better. The graphics on games like ratchet and clank are awesome in 4k HDR.

    PS5 is super fast and incredible graphics and features but I just don’t like how big and bulky it is and the storage capacity could’ve been a lot more in relation to its size, but overall still good.

    Honesty not a fan boy at all but I believe the PS5 is the winner so far in the new generation system release. The Dual Shock 5 controller is next level and the PlayStation just feels like a new system. I also have an Xbox series X and because of the lack of games and new features it just not grabbing my attention.

    Graphics are amazing. Puts a a breath of fresh air into those PS4 games you still have to finish. The adaptive controls really add a layer of immersion previous controllers hadn't achieved. The gentleman who came curbside was polite and courteous. The PS5 box and controller was in good shape. I love curbside.

    the jump from the base ps4 to the ps5 can't not be understated. being able to run ghost of tsushima in 4k/60FPS is gorgeous. the true selling point is the haptic feedback in the dualsense controller. however, sony doesn't have a lot of exclusive titles out for the system yet which is my only complaint right now.
