    The PS5’s eye-catching, futuristic aesthetic has been the subject of much debate ever since it was unveiled, and I still have mixed feelings about it. I find that the console looks like an unsightly, oversized cable modem when standing vertically, due to its pointy white side panels and the asymmetrical bulk added on by the Blu-ray drive.

    I was surprised when I finally got one. When I got the notification drop, I was taking my time to checkout and surprisingly it went through. I have to say it’s much faster then my PS4 and the load times are fast ! On the plus side if you do happen to get one, there’s lots of free games on PS collection for you to enjoy.

    Wow I literally only wanted to upgrade to this to play cyberpunk and so glad it did. It runs great and looks amazing with hdr. It also runs so silent compared to my base PS4. The controller is also insane, it has such high build quality and more immersive. I highly recommend it if your lucky enough to cop one from these nightmare drops.

    Reminds me of when I was a kid again. The next gen tech in the controller works flawlessly with the few games that can use it to it's full potential (Astros, Returnal) and I am extremely excited to see what is to come with this system. As hard as they are to get right now, it is 100% worth it to never give up trying to get one.

    I love my ps5 I’m so glad I got it. At first I wasn’t sure if I wanted to spend 500 bucks on a new console since I already have a PS4. But now that I’ve been playing it and know all the features I’m thinking of getting another one for my room. I got really lucky to even get one in November since it was in such high demand but I’ll keep trying.

    Not sure what to say. I’m not an avid gamer. Play from time to time. I think this system is great. I’m actually still playing PS4 games, so I can’t comment much on the next gen stuff. Just happy I was finally able to snag one. Controller is a nice upgrade. Everything seems built well. BBY was a pleasure to deal with when I picked it up.

    Wonderful gaming machine. In an age where Graphical Processing Unit manufactures are charing $450-700 for mediocre Graphical Processing Units - you get a proper 1440p/4K machine to play all your PS4 and PS5 games on. I love it. You couldn't buy a solid PC for the same performance the PS5 offers for the $540 after tax.

    The PlayStation 5 is truly a next-gen console.My experience was truly wonderful. The Console is a tad bigger than the other consoles of this generation but, it performs well for its size and there is virtually no fan noise.

    The system itself is surprisingly large. Fan noise is ok under heavy load. Controller feels familiar and haptic feedback is a neat feature for games that use it, as are the activity cards. The future looks bright in terms of exclusive games coming, but right now there just aren't many that make the system a must buy this minute.

    I am really loving the PS5 so far and appreciate all the free games that Sony offers when you first set it up. Nothing like being able to dive directly into the experience and the controller is a huge step up from the PS4 design. The menus are a little different from the PS4 so there is an adjustment period, but overall loving it.

    Big unit. Can be loud at times when reading a disk. Controller needs to be charged much more often compared to the ps4. Load times much faster, Happy with purchase. Nice you can still play online ps4 games with your friends.

    I bought it for my son for Christmas. He loves it and wants to stay on it all day. It is heavy and takes up quite a bit of space though. He originally did not have the stand under it and I noticed the dresser it was on was too warm and I was concerned. I told him to use the stand as it should have been used in the first place. Great system.
