    This has pretty much just become a decoration at this point. Maybe It's just the lack of games I own for it. Doesn't make sense to get duplicate games for the different consoles but as of now I'll just stick to sport games on the ps5 and shooters on the xbox. Just as personal preference of the controller feel and so the ps5 won't just collect dust. Also get to stick to the tony hawk 1&2 roots on the PlayStation which is nice.

    My controller clicks but other than that the device works correctly. It seems to run a little loud similarly to my ps4.

    Great system, runs very hot. Also, my controller suffered from analog stick drift, which Sony wants me to pay for shipping to get replaced.

    Sony clearly has production issues. The fan in my PS5 created this unbearable, constant high pitched squeal which could be heard through everything. With the stock issues I ended up having to send a brand new 3 day old unit in for a warranty repair. Took ~2 weeks + hours waiting to get a hold of Sony. Would I buy it again? Probably not. Also, it’s gigantic.

    Finally, score one. It runs quieter than PS4 pro, the graphic quality is arguably better. Loading time is much short.

    This is a great backup game system. Buy one for the Sony exclusives. The Playstation Plus Collection has a great collection of games.

    Superb console, just wish they made the save file transfers as easy as it is on the Xbox Series-X. Other than that highly satisfied.

    PlayStation 5 works good and looks great but I would wait. There is not much games for it to make it worth buying right now except Demon Souls.

    So far so good... UI is different and may take a bit to get used to. Lacking in some features at launch. No hardware issues in first week of use.

    The PS5 is a fine enough console but no games

    I spent a good while trying to hunt this console down, but unfortunately, I'm gonna level, it's not worth it at this point in time. It's good hardware and you can feel the quality, but there are barely any games at this moment in time. Sure you can do backwards compatibility with the PS4, but if you already have a PS4, don't freak out that you can't find locate a PS5. TL;DR: has potential, but isn't there yet. don't rush to buy it.

    Next gen game console with great 4K graphics & HDR. Only downside is no internet browser which is a downgrade from PS4

    The console itself is very nice, unfortunately the controller is already having problems so I had to buy another one
