    Is it big, yes. Does it look cool, yes. Does it have really nice graphics on a 4k HDR TV, yes. With proper 48 gbps hdmi cables and a tv with HDMI 2.1 ports capable of 4k 120HZ, can it push 4k120, yes. If you want one and can find one, get it!

    I love the PS5! Gaming is next level and the controller’s haptic feedback is incredible. Paired with a nice 4k tv, we are thrilled about playing new titles! Hopefully these become more accessible soon so more people can play!

    Pretty cool console, I own an xbox series x but I mainly play the ps5. The stepup from last gen is pretty huge in my opinion and the ui is really snappy compared to the ps4 ui. Adaptive triggers seem a bit like a gimmic but there's some instsnces where it adds a lot to the gameplay. My only complaint I have is the storage. 1 tb is essentially dwindled down to roughly 800 gb and despite ps5 games having surprisingly smaller install sizes, the storage space gets eaten pretty quickly. Hopefully they enable the extra ssd slot soon.

    The PS5 is Sony’s best console to date. Effortlessly fast and unexpectedly innovative, the PS5 is more than capable of shouldering the burden of expectation it has been handed by those who have preordered it in their droves.

    Been waiting for a long time to get one and it was worth the wait. The only thing I had a issue with is the wifi connection , game keep glitching (warzone). It runs better with a landline connected to the router. Besides that its awesome

    Completely different experience from the PS4. It’s incredible how much faster, and cleaner the UI/UX is. Can’t wait to get more games to try out on this thing. If you can find it, don’t think about it, just get it.

    The PlayStation 5 is amazing. The highlight is definitely the controller and the pre-installed game (Astro’s Playroom) is a lot of fun. That game really utilizes all the functions of the new controller. I did not give this product a 5 star rating because the system totally crashed after playing Spider-Man remastered. Afterwards I could not use my PS5 at all. I had to send it to SONY to fix it. Thankfully it still had warranty. It was a big inconvenience, but I suspect I got a fluke. Don’t know if this is a common problem or not. Besides that, I Love the PS5.

    So glad I was able to get one of these near release. It’s an amazing console and I’ve been playing it constantly. Only a few good games out at the moment but more are coming soon. Definitely pick up if you can get it at retail price.

    Excellent choice for those who prefer digital over disc. I have no problems playing games, and in general this a great unit for those who don’t want to spend as much for the disc unit. Highly recommend it.

    My first console had a defective disc drive that ate up my disc. I used my manufacturer’s warranty with Sony and got a replacement as well as my disc back in less than 2 weeks, I was really happy with the speed of that process. The console is gorgeous and looks really good in the vertical position. Having 4K quality is such a blessing. The Disney+ app is not 4K yet and many other streaming apps are still PS4 versions. You’re not hurting by waiting for more PS5 games to come out and for the UI to be upgraded to allow consistent 4K quality and themes.

    This is by far my favorite console. I have the Xbox Series X and also a Nintendo switch. I had to subscribe to twitter accounts dedicated to finding ps5’s just to find it. But it worked. It’s a great way to spend my downtime.

    Got mine on a Wednesday morning (PST) around 8:30 or something like that. I know they have dropped Tuesdays as well, they are more random than GPUs. Follow Falcodrin on twitch and his twitter account. Patience is a virtue. When you see a yellow "add to cart" button, click it and DO NOT REFRESH. It should change to "please wait" and then change back to yellow after a few minutes. Click it once yellow again and if it adds to cart, sprint to checkout! Also, if the location selector is being tricky you might need to specify a different store than one you'd normally prefer. Email confirmation faster than text. Good luck.

    I'm impressed. It's bigger than I expected, but it looks nice once you sit it on your TV stand. Looks futuristic yet tacky. In my personal opinion, looks doesn't really matter as long it can play next gen games well

    If you’re a game like me than you’ll love the PS5. The graphics are amazing and the biggest plus was the load and installation time of games being much faster. Also Sony has better game exclusives than Xbox. I’d give it a 10/10

    A leap to the future! I only had the PS4 base version so upgrading to this has been phenomenal! Graphics are superb, sound is crisp, and love the games. If you have a PS4 pro version I would probably hold off buying this until later though.
