    Very happy with the overall experience. If you combine it with a TV that supports hdmi 2.1 you will truly get a next gen experience. The only problem was purchasing one in the first place. One thing to note that the unit is fairly large and will not fit where your ps4 might of.

    The Play Station 5 is a relatively large gaming console. It is black and white in color. It is pretty easy to set up you just need to be close to a plug. I know many people want this gaming experience and I can see why. Several gamers have said this is their favorite gaming system.

    Expectations where low coming from PC and Series X. After turning it on the quality was much better them I expected. From the controller to graphic quality I was surprised. This is truest next-gen hardware for consoles. You need a LG GX10 to really appreciate the details at 120hz.

    Its difficult to get a PS5, but its worth it. I got this for my boyfriend and he loves it. From he quick loading (applies to PS4 games too) and improved frame-rate, this is a MUST HVE for any gamer. I recommend Miles Morales Ultimate Edition as the first PS5 games to play.

    Good device, horrible UI.

    The PS5 is a very good device, it offers great value for the performance it has. Many PS4 games have been patched to run in 4K, or with better frame rate. The UI is the only area that lacks. There is no ability to organize the UI. They've also split the UI into two different menus accessed by short or long pressing the PS button. Some features can only be accessed on the long press menu, some options are only accessible on the short press menu, and some options are shown on both menus. I don't understand this choice, as I'm constantly pressing the button, only to realize that "settings" can only be accessed from a long press.

    Two thumbs up! The fan is so powerful on this thing I sold my AC unit for $80 to buy a game for my Ps5. I highly recommend it even though black would look a lot better but who am I to judge. It really knocks you off your feet with its powerful blower and sleek design,

    Absolutely love the console. Also, thank you Best Buy for how you did your drops for the PS5. You guys made it extremely convenient. Doing it in waves one after the other and once you put it in your cart, it was yours. Didn’t have to race to check it out and hope that you got it.

    THE. BEST. CONSOLE. YET! Sorry if you weren’t able to snag one, please don’t buy from scalpers. I love this console but I would never pay more then $600 for this. You only to wait to wait two or three months before they’re back in stock. Just hold off, you’ll get yours soon enough.

    Power, Speed, Size. This console has it all. Rest assured knowing that you can buy this and already have a library of games to play by way of your PS4 collection. Plus those games will load way faster on the PS5 and may even look a bit better. Definitely buy one if/when you can.

    The PS5 is an amazing product. Fast, powerful, sculpted, and featured packed. Sony really went all out with this console. The only downside is that the 4k Blu-ray player does not at the moment support HDR10+ or Dolby Vision movie formats.

    From the UI, to the design, to the overall experience, this is honestly the most excited I've been to own a new gaming console! Enough games to choose from at launch, including the extra PS4 classics that Sony has provided and more than enough to be on your way to next-gen gaming!

    We really love our new Sony PlayStation 5 Console! Makes for a lot of family fun! Mom especially likes the design and that it keeps the controllers organized and in one place! We have five children and seven grandchildren. Perfect addition to our gaming collection.

    I was able to get one! I think that for the price, you're getting an absolutely amazing product and I wanted to get the disc version because I collect blu-rays. Sony outdid itself with the new DualSense controller. Those things are incredible!

    I was very lucky to be able to preorder this item. They’re unfortunately even still hard to acquire, however they are amazing consoles. Loading screens are practically nonexistent, and games are the prettiest they’ve ever been. Very smooth and easy to use UI.

    Playstation 5 was long awaited, and it has proven how powerful of a console it is. The controller is the real key to the PS5 experience, as it brings realism to a lot of games that support it. Hoping more PS4 games get upgraded in the near future.

    Excellent console. I’m so excited to play it and I’ve already played it multiple times by now. Love the graphics, the 4K resolution and HDR motion handling. Can’t wait for all the wonderful new games coming soon for the PS5 (I mainly use it to play all my old PS4 games in 4K).

    Absolutely hooked to my PS5. The next-Gen console is a must-buy for any gamer. Dual Sense Controller is a game-changer (unless you've experienced drifting, of which I have not.) Having a TV that supports the system's capabilities helps get the most out of the console.
