    Great Console but incredibly difficult to purchase

    The console is great and very impressive. I deducted a star because it has been unreasonably difficult to purchase one of these. I held out, kept waiting and kept avoiding temptation to buy from a scalper. My advice is if you're in the market just check Best Buy AS OFTEN as you can. If you see them in stock, keep trying, be persistent and eventually you'll get one.

    It’s the best around. Haptic controller, amazing graphics. Pair it up with the 3d headset and you’re ready to go

    Great system. Free games every months and mine has been nothing but a blast. Hooked it up to a usb ssd drive for older ps4 games.

    Fun system, but could be build more solidly.

    So far so good. I usually always buy the initial release systems because I like to collect. Not sure about longevity of the components as I also have the Xbox Series X and it seems much better built, but every unit always has it's problems. The PS5 has a known issue with an overheating ram chip, so be aware... system is fine but like I said it will need to be seen if something will fail prematurely on these due to the lack of proper cooling/heatsink design. But this is the tradeoff for being an early adopter, so I personally don't care either way.

    Everything that I expected out of the box! Wish the purchasing process had been a bit easier, but I can't blame Best Buy for that necessarily.
