    This is a fantastic system. Its so fast. Everything is smooth. Its ridiculously easy to upgrade the hard drive....make sure you update firmware before upgrading hard drive if you are doing it fresh out of box.

    Why does every game need to be downloaded? Obvious next gen system needed for exclusive game titles. I kind of expected more of a graphical leap from late games from the last generation consoles. Glad the shortage and scalping is over. Uses a lot of power. Seems to inhibit long play sessions due to the new dual sense controllers small battery and the power hungry nature of the controller.

    I have been using this system for about a year now, and it works great. I did have one issue with stickdrift on the controller after about half a year, but that is normal wear & tear and I replaced the controller with a new one. All in all, an Excellent product! It took me a long time to get my hands on a PS5, but BestBuy offered great preorder options, and picking one up was a breeze. No hidden charges, no gimmicks, just good service. Thanks BestBuy!

    I love just how fast everything loads up. Loading ip games and even ingame load screens take it the time it takes me to blink to load up. Definitely worth the upgrade!

    Honestly, ive been an xbox fan for so long but there are some PlayStation exclusive games that I enjoy from back in the day. When I got the PS5, it honestly blows me away. The console itself is huge, but so is the performance and the graphics. I own both the Xbox Series X and the PS5, the xbox still has a bit of an edge over the ps5 when it comes to controller battery life and pro controller options, but im excited to see what the edge controller will do when its released.
