    Very beautiful looking console. Finally got a window of opportunity to purchase. Best Buy by far was the easiest to order it from. Other stores glitched out. Very big console compared to the ps4

    My favorite Playstation console yet. The new controller is the best iteration of any Playstation controller and the system is very quiet and fast. Miles Morales and Ratchet and Clank have been a real joy to play.

    Great console, it is fast and powerful, but it is to big, the control can get dirty really easy and doesn't have a lot of new games

    Hands down... Absolutely THE best console out! Didn't think there would be a really big difference from ps4 pro to ps5 but it's so much faster and graphics are better too! So glad I was able to secure one here through Best Buy..

    Finally able to get my hands on a PS5 digital. There is no need to pay for the extra $100 for a disc drive that is phasing out. This unit doesn't have any moving parts so it should last longer than the disc drive.

    Good console looks nice and has fast loading times and works good would recommend using a HDD ps5 external hard drive to add more storage for certain games the ps5 only has 667.7 GB of storage

    I love it. The adaptive controller is miles beyond what the PS4 controller can offer. My only gripe is that the PS5 interface isn't as polished as the PS4. I assume they will fix this with updates eventually.

    With the DualSense, the PS5 is the ultimate next gen console. Compared to Series X, PS5 sets itself apart in that with revision of the controller and UI, it feels like a leap. Can't get enough of the weighted triggers!

    I did not think I was gonna get it when I went to Best Buy. Despite the line, I was able to get it and I have been enjoying it. I can’t wait to see what other games pop up for the PS5.

    Same performance as the disc version but I won't lie, i miss having the option of playing physical 4k blu ray discs. That aside - its a great console probably the best i've had but the lack of games is a shame.

    Always been a Playstation guy. I've loved all their systems and this is no different. The upgrades and new tech in the controllers are amazing and could be even better moving forward if developers really take advantage of it.

    The PS5 is a great console. It's incredible how fast games load, how good they look, and the new features. The haptic feedback on the controller is pretty incredible and will provide great value for years to come.

    Love the liad times and tge grapics. A must have for a playstation fan. The different gui from the ps4 takes time yo get use to as well as some easier controlled options in the ps4 made more difficult on the ps5.

    The packaging was great. Did not feel flimsy. PS5 was what I expected. Best Buy did a great job at directing me to the location of where I would go to receive my product. Works perfectly without any issues. Definitely recommend!

    The best PlayStation I have ever owned. The haptic feedback on the controller makes shooting games feel real and the load time for PS4 games are crazy fast. I cant wait to see more upcoming PS5 exclusives. I highly recommend!

    An amazing console. Only downside has been availability and game titles for the launch. There are many games announced that I am looking forward too. Having the PS5 really is a step up compared to the playstation 4 pro.

    From someone who previously owned a PS4 Pro, I can tell you first hand that the PS5 is quicker with loading games and switching between games/media. (But not a drastic amount) but definitely noticeable. For the most part my experience has been great (no random resets/buggy game downloads etc.) if you haven’t been able to lock in a PS5 of your own, please know that you’re not missing out on anything TOO crazy. Be patient, most games out are on PS4 as well. The upgrades are nice, but again, don’t stress it too much. (Worth a buy tho)

    The lack of games that take full advantage of the system is a bit of a let down. The controller truly feels next generation and truly adds to the emersion aspect of the system. If you can find one it is well worth the purchase.
