    The PS5 is so hard to come by especially a year after it has come out but I genuinely can’t believe I was able to get one. The graphics are amazing & it runs so smoothly if you can get one please do you won’t regret it!

    The PS5 is amazing, runs at 4k 120hz on my TV, and it's beautiful. Definitely worth it. 5 days after the order was placed, it was ready for pickup. I also bought one from Walmart on 3/18 and it hasn't even shipped, so Best Buy is the way to go.

    The PS5 is an amazing machine which makes games perform even better than they already did. Must have for PlayStation exclusive fans. The Dualsense controller makes the games even better. Great experience.

    Games look great. The controller and speed of loading screens feel next gen. Only wish it had backwards compatibility for the ps1-ps3 like the new Xbox does.

    PS5 Delivers a Next Gen experience

    This IS Next Gen and feels like it. The Dual Sense controller is amazing and the UI is crisp, fast and well implemented. The console is large and takes up a lot of room but if you have the space it looks great on a shelf or media stand.

    Amazing console! It doesn’t compete with my fully built PC but that machine cost me over $2500 where as this little console cost me less than a fraction of that! Beautiful graphics at this price point and the SSD is blazing fast with game load times.

    I pre-ordered my PS5 in September as an early Christmas present to myself. Glad I did since they are hard to get ahold of now. I've yet to open the box 9Waiting until Christmas) but I'm sure I will be enjoying all the advances the system brings with it.

    Great console. Fast and easy to use. Opted for the digital version so I don't have to change discs all the time. Can run multiple games at the same time and moves fast between games.

    Thee absolutely best gaming system ever!!!!! The graphics are next level. The user interface is as smooth as butter and the system is blazing fast. The size takes some getting use to and I also wish it was in a black but other than that I’m loving it.

    Big jump up from the base PS4 in performance, loading speed, and physical size. Operation is quiet, although how long this holds up remains to be seen with future demanding games. The dualsense controller is much nicer than dualshock

    It was definitely worth all the time and effort it took to get a hold of this beast machine. Although most entertainment centers won’t allow the ps5 to stand upright, it looks just as good on its side. The only true errors I’ve came across so far have been due to Sony software updates. I don’t know what happened exactly but a system error caused not only my game to crash, but the entire system as well. I had to manually reset the system to right the problem. When I got the ps5 turned back on, I was met with an error message telling me the system had to rebuild the database. This is every ps5 owner’s nightmare but since the error, I haven’t had any problem since. Loading times are amazing, FPS holds steady at 60, and games look incredible. I wish the SSD drive had more available space, but I’m sure external hard drives will be available in the future.

    The PS5 is everything you want in a next gen console. The speed is unreal, the graphics are unmatched, and the games planned for the next few years will be amazing. This is the console to get to take gaming to even further then anyone ever imagined.

    This system has been everything I thought it would be. System load times are practically non-existent, the controller is phenomenal and the user interface was upgraded in just right places. Oh and if you have a 4K that supports 120hz it’s beautiful.

    Finally been able to purchase one. The controller is what made me interested in buying the ps5. Overall I’m liking the ps5 design and the quality of the games. The only annoying thing about the ps5 is how loud the fan is when playing games like cod.

    So thankful I was able to finally able to score a PS5 through Best Buy! Once I made the purchase, the rest of the process was seamless and I only had to wait for it to come in! I’ve had zero issues with it, and it was definitely worth what I paid!

    Being one of the lucky ones who got the system I have to say well worth the wait. Super fast times great 4K graphics and so far a pretty good game selection for only being out for 2 months. Highly recommended just wish they made more for release date.

    Glad I was able to secure this. They still seem hard to get. Everyone seems to want one so I’d say I recommend it. It’s massive though so if you aren’t in a rush I recommend waiting for the inevitable slim version they’ll release at some point
