    After two years, this is still a great system. I've had no issues with it. The storage on this edition fills up quickly with the large games of today, but I don't miss having disks.

    A very fine product. PlayStation has absolutely outdone themselves with this. Best Buy had a very convenient setup when it came to buying the PS5 in app. Pick-up was even better. The frame rates, ray tracing, everything with the PlayStation was just awesome.

    Great console but so much bigger than my Series X, it didn't fit under my TV! Controller is awesome but only if it gets supported in the future from developers.

    'Next Generation' is definitely here with this powerful machine. Performance and Audio/Video output is phenomenal. Absolutely love what Sony's done with the PS5; everything about it has been an incredible experience! It was definitely worth the ridiculous hassle.

    I was finally able to get a PS5 in March and I love it! I have owned all of the past Sony systems and this one did not disappoint. The PS Collection is a very nice touch. The only thing to mention is that it is a big and heavy console.

    Exceptional console and probably the best price per performance you can get or bang for your buck. Controller feedback is absolutely amazing and graphics capabilities are unparalleled. Would recommend getting one if you can get these for retail!

    This is the best console by far! Loading times and the graphics are phenomenal. I only wish everyone that wants one could get one. Scalpers need to be fined and punished for what they do to people...especially for the kids that want one and can't get one

    I was one of the fortunate few to get the right to purchase this coveted product. After owning it for 5-6 months I think I can provide a good overview. Thanks to PS4 backwards compatibility and PS5 upgrades there is already a large library of games, however this comes back to bite you later as the internal SSD can't handle more than a handful of triple A games, this spring Sony added external SSD for storage but you can't play PS5 games from that. The frustrating thing is that every system comes with an internal SSD expansion bay but it is still unusable. If you are interested in the games available on PS5 I would strongly recommend; but for the average consumer I would suggest waiting until it is easier to find, all the extra features get added/polished, and more games built to take full advantage of the hardware become available.

    Great product, well thought out and engineered the controller truly feels next gen and the user interface is fast and snappy, not like the previous gen. The console suffered a few bugs and glitches, but it was expected for us early adopters. Highly recommend it.

    UI has a drastic change. Takes getting used to but at least it looks nice. It do be sounding like it's about to take off sometimes. The dual sense gimmick is nice but not necessary for FPS like COD multiplayer. Received a nice upgrade for my GoT and BL3 though

    Great system and right now the best system for gaming over the Xbox series X primarily for the exclusives it sports as well as the new DualShock controller it immerses you in the game like never before whole devs actually continue to use and expand on its uses

    Digital. PS5

    Well... I have been playing for one week now. I tried several games like Godfall (i would rate 4/10), Spider-Man Remastered (10/10 so far), Astro Bots (I'm an playstation fan for over 25 year now - so... 10/10!), God of War PS+ collection (10/10 - even it's only 30fps) and many other games I owned before: CoD Warzone, Battlefield 5, Rainbow Six Siege, No Mans Sky, Destiny 2, Madden NFL, GTA online. All in all I'm very impressed by the smoothness of the PS5 UI. Everything works more fluently and faster. It's very easy and fast to create and join parties! And I really love the new controller as it is a bit bigger, fitting perfect in my hands. I really love the adaptive triggers, as they for example simulates the tension of spider-mans webs when web-swinging through new york! That's awesome!

    Wonderful successor to the PS4. User interface is a bit different, but works very smoothly and quick. Load times are fast and the system overall is silent other than the disk drive spinning. No fan noise at all. Buy it if you can find it. Well worth the money

    The only thing I don’t like about the ps5 is that there isn’t enough room for games. Newer games utilize a lot of space and you have to keep erasing games to be able to download new ones but I still give it 5 starts cause it’s that good

    Yesssirrrr! best console out. Took a while to get it but it was worth it. The biggest tip I can give you guys is to follow as many PS5 Drop Twitter pages to have an Idea when they are dropping. Shout out @Jake_Randall_YT for helping me secure this Beast.

    I really like this PS5! The picture quality is great along with my OLED TV. The controller upgrade is also nice and still fits my small hands. I just wish it wasn’t such a hard console to get so everyone can experience how awesome it really is.

    Got this as a gift for my nephew, he did not want the disc version and wanted the slimmer look of the digital. I was able to get this for him and he was very happy with this gift. It runs great and looks so great on a LG C1

    5 stars because BB says no to scalpers and only sells the PS5 at MSRP! * Pros: It's a Playstation 5, of course! Next gen games. * Cons: It's huge and you'll struggle to find a good place to put this in your TV room.
