    This thing is a beast! Almost as powerful as the Xbox Series X, and while there aren’t many next gen exclusives just yet, they are coming. Not to mention you can play most of your PS4 backlog. Great system by Sony!

    An amazing console. Games run smoothly and load times are lightning fast. The controller feels nice in the hand. It’s even more amazing when paired with a 4k display. Only thing that I miss are themes.

    This is a really great value since Sony did not under power this cheaper version of the PS5. All the specs are the same and the only thing missing is the disc drive so if you buy a lot of games online, this is perfect for you.

    I purchased the TotalTech membership in order to have an opportunity to purchase the PS5. THANK YOU BestBuy for using a method to deter bots from eating up the inventory before anyone had a chance to add to the cart. I promptly cancelled the TotalTech membership once I received my PS5. It wasn't beneficial/sensible for me to continue having it as I don't purchase ALOT of electronics or appliances very often. Now if you are a person that does, the membership has lots of perks and benefits which pay for themselves. The PS5 doesn't disappoint at all. It's everything and more. Please don't lose faith in securing one for yourself. Be patient and your time will come.

    I got to say that the processing in getting this was a bit stressful, but the overall experience wasn't as bad as trying to get it at other retailers. I love the PS5, one of my best purchases since I had the first version of PS4.

    This is the best console ever. I'm simply in love by my PS5. It was a little hard to purchase because of the bots, but I got mine at 2:30am and I couldn't sleep after it. Lol

    Most amazing next generation console in the market today. Sony did an amazing job with the Playstation 5. Everything about it is slick and next gen feeling, the user interface and games make it the most valuable console this year.

    Console is great! PS5 and XBOX Series X are basically the same. Everyone has their preference so if you are a PS this is an upgrade. XBOX guy, get the Series X. Why can’t we all be friends!?

    I did not think I was gonna get it when I went to Best Buy. Despite the line, I was able to get it and I have been enjoying it. I can’t wait to see what other games pop up for the PS5.

    Very beautiful looking console. Finally got a window of opportunity to purchase. Best Buy by far was the easiest to order it from. Other stores glitched out. Very big console compared to the ps4

    I’m glad I was able to order this online on 11/12. This system is amazing!.. the haptic feedback on the dual sense is incredible. It sucks that it’s hard for people to order this due to bots online but I’m happy as hell I got mine!!
