    Bought this as a Xmas gift for my son whom is a avid gamer. All he does is rave about the graphics and speed of the processor. The only thing I've heard from him on the negative side would be that due to the type of harddrive you cannot just plug a external HD in to it to expand storage

    Love it. Great upgrade from the PS4. Only con would be that the center black plastic scratches extremely easy and the white controller easily gets dirty (although easy to clean). Aside from those aesthetic issues the actually product has been great. Great product for the price.

    What a great console. I haven’t owned a gaming console since Nintendo game cube. I’ve been strictly a PC gamer until now. I want to play all the games on my PS5 now. I even want to replay some of the games I bought on PC on the PS5. The controller makes that big of a difference.

    If you are a fan of any of the Playstation systems, you will not be disappointed with the latest. The best feature for myself is the downloading /loading speed of the games. It soo much faster than before. Looks fab on my TV as well. If you can get your hands on one you will be happy you did.

    This is my favorite console ever owned! This also probably the biggest console ever owned. The quality of my games are beyond amazing and the speed of losing games is super quick. I really don't have a wait time. Make sure to buy all the accessories.

    Solid console - performance is wild - certain things however are not so great - have had the console for a year now and the controller is no good - controller drift is a real issue. Sometimes the controller won't connect to the console at times even on a full charge - randomly disconnects as well. Certain streaming services like HBO MAX and Youtube TV aren't that great. Netflix doesn't have full dolby vision on either. Console at time makes weird noises as well - randomly. Negativity aside - its a solid device - most of these are just launch issues and fingers crossed it doesn't get bad with time.

    Great console, but loud coil whine

    It's a PS5, and the games and controller are great. I was hoping that this console would be quieter than my ps4 and tbh it is and also isn't. There is a constant humming when a game is on. I'm not sure if it is fan noise or coil whine. Either way, sony needs to be better at that.

    Great System with Early Adopter Issues

    The console itself is excellent, however, the lack of titles are release is underwhelming. I’m sure the titles will improve with time, but for now, we’re stuck waiting until later in 2021 when they are putting out better titles. It also sucks that you can save PS5 titles on an external drive right now and increasing your internal drive at this time is prohibitively expensive. I suggest you buy yourself at least a 1TB external drive to hold your PS4 games because you’ll run out of space quickly on this system (only 825GB). I believe many of these issues will be corrected in the future, but for now, it is what it is. If you are lucky enough to snag one, enjoy.

    Really great performance to value if you can snag one! I beat Returnal and it was fun. I've played some of the PS4 games with upgrades like AC Valhalla and the PS5 is way more powerful. Hopefully Sony makes it more available so my friends can get one for retail too!

    Upgrading to the PS5 from my previous PS4 has been great! With backwards compatibility, I can enjoy old games, and some have even improved their performance. I continue to be impressed by PS5 games as well. Also, you cannot overstate how amazing the new DualSense controller is.

    I was super excited to finally get my hands on the new PlayStation 5 next generation. The graphics and gameplay display is absolutely amazing. Highly recommend playing this on a 4K TV with high definition surround sound. Mind blowing and tons of awesomeness!

    PlayStation as always been the top console for gaming and it hasn’t changed. The unit stays cool while playing. Even games like modern warfare doesn’t faze the console. Don’t get an Xbox, all Xbox “exclusives are coming to pc as well so it’s better to just get a pc and a ps5 for Sony exclusives

    Don’t miss out. This is must if your a true gamer. The experience is nothing but amazing and the graphics in 4K @60fps keeps you in the seat wanting more. Now if you have a comparable 120fps TV, you might as well call of your weekend plans because your book for the best visuals ever in gaming.

    Super fun playing games with this PlayStation 5. Comes with a controller, had to cop an extra to play with the homies when they come over. Overall, great purchase and amazing graphics compared to past generations. I wouldn't consider it a necessary upgrade at the moment tho.

    Upgrading from PS4 to PS5, there is a great difference in loading times. I love how quick I can load my games and applications. The capability of being able to run certain games at 120Hz is amazing! And the DS5 controller is the best controller I've ever used.

    Glad to have gotten the PS5 so early on launch day! Wish it had some padding in the box but so far everything works great and there’s no signs of damage. Hopefully will last a few years until I’m able to upgrade to a slimmer version, because this thing is big!

    Received this product today. It was in EXCELLENT QUALITY when I received it. Easily un-boxed and able to set up. All items were present. I have to say this was the quickest set-up I've ever had for any type of device (T.V, PC, Laptop, Phone, etc.).

    I was finally able to buy a PS5 which is always out of stock. After buying TotalTech, I finally had the opportunity to buy one. Enjoying gaming with a 2-year TotalTech warranty. The price of the PS5 is almost $300 cheaper than the price at Walmart.
