    The Next Gen Console is what is means

    Playstation 5! Can't believe I actually got the preorder of this gaming system. I've owned PS1, PS2, PS4, PSP, PS Vita, and yet, PS5! The design itself is really awkwardly tall.. couldn't fit into my shelf so I had to order a new shelf with a taller gap. However, that does not mean it is not a great console! The processing speed is crazy.. I ran my Spider-Man on PS4, took 34 secs to get to title screen. With PS5, it only took 12 secs!!!! What a great difference in speed! I also love the fact they have backward compatibility, which allows me to play PS4 games!! highly recommend to get this one over XBOX, just wait until stores have inventory. don't be silly and spend over $1000 for a console guys. eventually IT WILL RESTOCK.

    It’s awesome! Only thing it’s missing is a web browser but I’m sure that’ll come in the future. It’s not a big deal but that’s all I could see missing. Everything else is so much better! Fast and beautiful!

    The Playstation 5 is totally awesome!! I love the improved graphics, I like the refreshing white color scheme for the PS5, and the controller is comfortable. I tried my luck and purchasing one from other retailers during the holiday season, but didn't have a chance. However, one day on a whim I tried shopping at Best Buys and I managed to secure the bag. Best Buy's definitely helped me scoring the PS5 over the other retailers, and was quick with the pickup date, so I'm a happy customer!

    Top notch... if you can find one. Performance, as expected, is fantastic. Not much else to say. Wish they were easier for everyone to find but if you can you'll surely enjoy it!

    Love the PlayStation just wish it had more space without having to purchase an external drive. The new design is dope, I really like it. So glad we finally got one the release was horrible but it paid off

    Not many games out that are truly next gen but it’s definitely worth it for the faster load times and increased frame rate, especially for your backlog that you’ve been neglecting.

    Was it worth staying up all night to beat the bots? Yes. Am I kinda sad that there's not alot of games out right now? Yes. Should you get one? No. Wait until games are released to justify the 500$ price tag.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    What else to say other than it’s beautiful, quite and the graphics are incredible. I would say the 2.1 HDMI makes a huge difference, so upgrade the TV at Best Buy if you want the full gaming experience.

    Awesome controller feature with audio though d feel better to touch (rough plasticky texture, maybe to be non-slip). Great games coming out for 2022 and launch games were fun.

    First time using a PlayStation and can already say it’s miles better than the Xbox For the controller it feels much better and doesn’t feel cheap at all while also having so many amazing features on it

    Absolutely love this system. Super quick. I have a media remote for it and it paired with my Samsung seemlessly. The PS+ free PS4 games are really great, in case you don't buy a ps5 game with the system.

    After trying and trying I was able to order one of these through the presale. Great graphics, great system, and I've had no problems playing it. I recommend upgrading your PS4 to this when you have the chance.

    Can't believe I actually got one!!! I'm use to xbox products so this new ps5 controller kind of blew my mind. You can talk and hear online players through the remote and the tilt and lean feature was amazing.
