    I use this this just about everyday if I’m being honest. I love it the quality is great. Much easier to use than the 4. The process of changing apps and games is much more convenient. Great overall system. Had no issues this far.

    Awesome Console & Controller

    I was lucky enough to get a preorder for the PS5 and picked it up on launch day and have really enjoyed it. My old PS4 Pro supposedly did 4K so I didn’t think I’d notice the upgrade as much as I have, but the textures really pop on my new 77” LG OLED CX; the HDR looks the same as the PS4 Pro, but it’s nice to have the menus rendered in HDR too. Lighting and ray tracing effects are more subtle, but definitely noticeable in Miles Morales which is a great looking game. The real revelation for me was the controller when I got around to playing Astro’s Playroom - the vibration and adaptive trigger features really come alive with that game vs. Miles Morales and show the next gen potential of the console. I can’t wait to play more games that really take advantage of that. So overall a great upgrade to the PS4 and worth getting if you can find it!

    Luckily I was able to get two. I got one for myself off a sams club drop and I got this one for my friend while he was working. We love the ps5 and next gen. The only downside is all the scalpers out there trying to resell during holiday season.

    Great system. If you loved the PS4 this is the system for you. It plays games, has a controller, plus you won’t believe how big it is. Comes w no games but you get to download 20 free games, so there’s that.

    Obviously the quality of a console will be judged from the games to come in the next few years but the PS5 is off to a great start with Demon's Souls and Spider-Man: Miles Morales. The controller is also the best controller I've ever played with.

    What a step forward with the PS5! The next generation of PlayStation is here and it does not disappoint! It honestly took a while to pin one of these bad boys down, but perseverance paid off! I’m looking forward to years of gaming enjoyment!

    The PS5 runs games great including all your ps4 games with much better fps and sometimes better resolution. There is not really that many exclusives or games out yet though, so not a must have right now. The coolest thing is probably the controller with the tension and feedback in the triggers it makes shooting games a bit more realistic. The astro game that comes with the console really shows off the controller's features. It also comes with a collection of some of the best ps4 games, which is a great value if you didn't own a ps4 or don't have many of those games.

    Greatest. Console . Ever. My last console was a PS3. I had a kid instead of buying a PS4. Big mistake (she doesn't even like video games!) Imagine my surprise paying this with a Sony 90j 4K. Mind blown.

    The PS5 is a huge step up from the original PS4 (I never used a pro). The full backwards compatibility with the PS4 library is great and the PS4 collection at launch makes the PS5 a killer value even for those without a previous Sony console.

    This system is everything it was made out to be. The graphics are much better, loading times are definitely much faster. My fan runs quieter also. I wouldn't place this in an enclosed case, however. Overall, great system though!!!

    It's basically a PS-4 Pro Max. Enhances graphics and resolution on some PS4 games, which is great. PS-5 games are sparse at the moment, so there's no real need to HAVE one a the moment. Overall Satisfied with purchase.

    I can't say enough wonderful things about this console. I am so glad we bought it. It was so easy to set up. We haven't had any problems with it. The graphics on this are incredible. My grandson loves it and the games on our 4k UHD TV is amazing.

    Fortunate to get my hands on the system and really do enjoy it. Only had a few problems which is to be expected with a new gen system. Miles Morales froze on me a few times but other than that love the 4k graphics and the smooth game play.

    Clean and mean I really love the new design. Initially I purchased for persona 5 and demon souls. Then I realized how powerful this PS4 emulator was. This isn’t the version I ended up keeping I bought a disc version and sold my digital.

    the best next gen console, with the greatest games designed only for sony, it runs FAST and you never feel things you used to feel in the PS4 (lags, input lag, stuttering). This is a must have for any gamer right now

    Dollar for dollar the best console to scalp. Just kidding, this PS5 really needs no real review. I think that the non disc system will last longer as I feel the CD drive is pretty crappy in the disc version. Less moving parts here?
