    No regrets at all! Runs my PS4 games like a champ. Performance mode gives me the chance to experience some games upscaled to 4k 60fps. Hands down I'd buy it again if need be.

    Absolutely lives up to the hype, amazing graphics, smooth game play, silent no fan noise. Have only had one crash so far. UI is super sleek and lightning quick. I am in love.

    Best buy has handled the ps5 release better than any other retailer in my opinion. The system is great amazing graphics. Be ready to update TV to get the full experience.

    Definitely worth the wait and price. Probably would’ve went with the digital version since I’ve never used an actual disc.

    Amazing console and worth every penny...if you can buy it! The employee at Best Buy who handed me the PS5 said that even THEY couldn't get one. That's just messed up, and it made me feel sorry for the guy, but also extremely lucky that I could secure a unit. Unfortuately, my luck ran out soon after, as my car broke down in the parking lot. I had to have someone pick up the PS5 so I didn't get mugged walking it back to my place. Having this thing in my possession during Christmas time made me feel like a FBI Most Wanted suspect. Not really a review I guess, but you can find that anywhere. Unlike the PS5.

    So happy to finally get a PS5! Graphics are awesome and the backward compatibility with PS4 games means we don't have to start our library over!

    Really looking forward to playing the new Harry Potter game on this. Anything that I played on the PS4 that I really cared about (Madden) had the next gen upgrade, so I'm set.

    Great console. Im a Xbox fan but theyve finally went down the deep end. This digital console is the future and cuts cost by removing the BS people dont need. IE: discs

    The display is on point. The loading screens are way faster which is only obvious. The design itself is a little weird but other than that, it’s the perfect console

    A great upgrade to my first gen PS4! After six months I have no issues. System is quite, I have in a well ventilated area so I almost never hear the fans ramp up.

    A Massive Upgrade!

    Upgrading from the PS4 to the PS5 has been incredible! It's quick, downloading games doesn't take the whole night or longer, it's smooth and looks great! I love the controller but I've had major problems with stick drift already and I haven't had the console for long. I'm hoping Playstation will fix it when I call but it is really annoying that I've barely had the console and the controller already has major drift.

    Great console that pairs well with the LG CX TVs. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to upgrade their PS4 to the new gen console.

    Very cool super fast also super buggy!! The system will randomly turn off in the middle of gameplay. My modern warfare game that’s for the PS4 will install well but once I turn off the system and put it back on it will save that he cannot play the data file of the game and to reinstall. I’m not too sure about the design it’s not that great looking in person. But you will notice a major difference in speed how fast the games load

    Great system, a little big tho. But you can set it down sideways so its not bad. The control has a mic built in and u really dont need a seperate one. Honestly a great console
