    This console is great. Everything looks incredible, the controller feels super comfortable, and the load times are miniscule. Definitely a good investment if you're thinking of upgrading from a PS4.

    Best Gaming Console

    Amazing console, it makes my ps4 pro obsolete. I can play any ps4 or ps5 title online. Only drawback is the limited storage on the internal SSD, but there is an additional slot to add an additional SSD in the future.

    This was a worthwhile upgrade from my old launch PS4. Loads games great and controller is the most premium controller I have ever had the joyous opportunity to play with. Do wish it had more storage space though.

    Happy to finally be able to get hands on this from Best Buy. The console is BIG, but actually simpler to install than past units (love the lack of a power block). So far as happy as I'd have expected to be!

    Great Console, tons of power and it is whisper quiet. Don't even get me started on this wild controller! I would also like to thank Best Buy for having a fair lottery system that allows people to get them!

    What can I say? It's an excellent console. Great performance and ssd is fast. My only complaint is that is UGLY! If you care about looks buy and XBOX Series X but if you want the best performance go with the PS5.

    Speedy set up. All my older games look sharper and load a lot quicker. Storage has been eaten up pretty quickly. May need to get an external HD to hold me over till the expansion bay is available from Sony.

    Simply the best place to play, great performance with a rock-solid lineup of games. The only downside is the size of the console, but that's quickly is overlooked once you start playing!

    Great console. Runs super fast and smooth. Games look incredible on it. I almost rated 4 star only because of how hard it is to get one but that’s not the fault of retailers so I decided a 5 star was fitting.

    Overall great quality especially to the graphics. Not sure how much I like the controller battery life. The dual sense is pretty dope during the gaming experience but does quickly.

    This has been worth the wait. Even thought I have been waiting months to get it it runs very fast and the graphics on most games are amazing. Loading times are almost 0. Defiantly would recommend.

    Was finally able to get a PS5! The controller with its haptic feedback is amazing. I recommend an external ssd drive for your PS4 games. Looking forward to Horizon Forbidden West

    Fun console, but it is HUGE! The controller is one of the best I've ever used on a console and its due to the new haptic feedback/rumble and new triggers. PS5s sell like hot cakes and its obvious why!

    It’s a PS5. It’s exactly what you would expect from a PlayStation. The graphics are fantastic, load times are super fast and it has possibly the best controller I’ve ever used on a console. Get this today!
