    It's bigger than I expected. My only complaint is that I wish it had more USB ports for charging controllers and storage extension. Storage will be an issue. If you are coming from a ps4 to this, you will not have enough space for all of your games to be downloaded without extended storage.

    Not much I can say about this product… it’s great the only negative which really isn’t a negative there is only 800gb of free ssd space to start.. but thankfully there are ssd add ons available. Haptic feedback on the controller is great and ssd is lighting fast

    Getting one was a challenge, however, Best Buy was the best. I was able to add to cart and keep it in my cart until successfully checking out. No issues with pick up. Other places couldn’t check out before my cart was emptied. Very annoying. The unit is great! Liked the design, graphics, etc...

    Amazing.. absolutely amazing. The PS5 feels and plays like a next generational console, it doesn't feel like an upgrade like the series X. I own both systems and do like both of them, but with the Ps5 it feels like something new. My series x feels like I upgraded the system to be more powerful

    Excellent! The service has been immaculate. I ordered online despite the mad rush for a PS5. I went to the store for pick up and it was ready for me. The controller is pure next generation. Only caveat 4k 120hz is still very rare in games. But the future looks bright!

    PS5 - a leap forward

    This hardware is a huge leap from the PS4. Sony needs to fix the poor implementation of its social features -- specifically the groups and chat parties, but that will evolve over time, I'm sure. Very please d overall with the graphics and sound enhancements, as well as most of the interface.

    I love this thing. Mostly been playing apex legends on it, which is not even a native ps5 game. The machine is fast and gorgeous. The controller is very nice too also it’s seeing some wear after a year. Tons of great titles to choose from. Happy gaming!!!

    All the reviews are spot on. If you were lucky enough to pick one up, then you'll love it! Pros: Fast load times. PS4 games load super fast on the PS5, as it's loading from a SSD. Sleek design. Cons: Bulky console. It's a console, so in 2-3 years it will be outdated already.

    The PS5 is such an amazing console and I was very glad to be able to purchase one from best buy. I am very excited to be able to play ratchet and clank on this thing. The dual sense controller feels very unique and cool , can’t wait for more games to take advantage of the haptics

    The PS5 is Awesome ! Absolutely must have next gen console solely for the improved graphics and refresh rate. Touching the dual sense control for the first time amazed me with how smooth and flawless the vibrations and R2 and L2 triggers are

    Not much to really say other than a great gaming device! Build quality is always non-issue with Sony and works excellent on a Oled C1. Games look fantastic. Only thing unfortunate is how hard it is to get one. Luckily, I was able to get one on preorder.

    Hard to get but worth it once you do. Once song begins to release play station 5 exclusives then it’s when it’ll begin to shine. Do not buy it for re sell it is not worth the over paying rn. Hunt for it retail.

    Three words. Best console ever. Hands down. Sony is still the reigning champ and this system is evident of that. Easily the most powerful console on the market. I love how the games look. Smooth as butter, beautiful graphics and the best thing about it is that this console is super quiet.

    When I tell you I was on top of when they were selling the ps5 I was on top, it was hard to get but I managed to get my hands on this, if you want to purchase one, go to @ps5restock_etc on twitter they let you know when restocks are happening, and they’re legit !

    The PS5 is amazing! Graphics are beautiful! The only downfall is that there is NO WEB BROWSER! The ps4 and ps3 had one, so that was a bit of a let down :-( I'd still recommend the system though.

    Great system. Glad I was able to get one before they decided to force TotalTech membership (capitalizing like the scalpers). Not a lot of software options yet, but the system is very fast and user friendly. LOVE the hard drive speeds and reduced load times!

    Truly a next gen console. Its a night and day difference between the PS4 and PS5 graphics. Happy they dint rush this product but rather took their time to release something as good as this. Sure it might be bigger than the XBOX but who cares, its not like you are going to be carrying it.

    Very Fast compared to ps4. Playing in real 4k on your console is awesome. The 120 fps is also a great improvement for your FPS's. The only thing that could be confusing to some are the TV's and Monitors needed to take advantage of the Console. Also the disk tray can be loud while copying games.
