    PS5 Woes

    PS5, it's what everyone wants. Right now, it's quite buggy. A lot of random shutdowns, controllers not charging, game hangs, and just glitches. Be prepared to deal with issues every time boot-up.

    A must have item for techies but not needed this year due to lack of content and no exclusives make it a must. You can wait until the ps5 pro comes out with a bigger hard drive that's for sure.

    Great for older and newer games. Apps work fast on it. Only real downside is the hardrive. On initial boot it is really 622gb not 825gb as advertised as that is allocated to operating systems.

    Complicated system to purchase high demand items. Store location should auto change to the closest store available for that product. If buyer does not wanna go there then they don't buy.

    Works really good and I like the design I do wish it was smaller though. I would have expected a next gen console to be more sleek.

    Whenever I insert a disk it just says that it is unable to read the disk. It’s just over 2 years old. It’s very disappointing. This isn’t something cheap.

    Seems powerful, it’s loud af though, sounds like it’s going to blast off of my console. Lack of games right now but cool that it’ll play ps4 games, can’t set up if not connected to internet

    Hard to find. Great console if you manage to get one do not put in rest mode. Mine eventually wouldnt turn on only after using it 5 times.

    Currently still in beta should be on the side of the box. This system will probably be great. In six months or more. Just to many issues right now. Luckily mine hasn't bricked. But, a system shouldn't launch with so many bugs. Core functionality like rest mode has many problems.

    Other than the console factory resetting my router it's working fine. Better than most from what I am hearing about fan sounds. The main reason for now is a 4K player. The games will come.

    You have no idea how excited I am to finally get this console. It’s been out a year and it’s still rad to find! It’s a gift for my husband so I hope he likes it.

    Best Buy did a great job in having it ready for pick-up. The PS5, however, would turn on and then lose power after a few seconds, so we had to reach out to Sony for technical support.

    Great speed, graphics with easy storage upgradability. Really needs to be able to stream from local network media centers like prior consoles though.

    Fast as expected, but 825GB is not enogh for gamer. Adding of secod 2TB drive will cost you same amount as a console.

    It's ok, but it's not quite the generational jump I was hoping for. 4k at 120 fps is nice though on games like cold war. Waiting for how the next gen version of cyberpunk 2077 runs on it.

    Best PS5 console EVER!!! I was lucky in getting a console, that is why I don’t give it 5 stars. Console is so good, but the prices for buying it was a headache... Feliz Navidad! Enjoy.
