    After a year it’s okay. I would still prefer my PS4 Pro over this console. It does have better graphics and resolution

    This is exactly what you’d expect. Don’t skimp out and get the discless version. Much easier to find sales on physical games vs digital only.

    I bought this for my husband for his birthday and he says to give it “9 million stars” instead of just five. And that he loves his wife to the moon and back. So I’d say - it’s a winner!

    Awesome console. While the catalog of games is somewhat low, I'm enjoying catching up on my backlog of PS4 games that now run much smoother. Bot protection and very fast pick-up at my local Bestbuy made this a breeze to get.

    This is a good console. Personally prefer the Series X to this as it has a tighter integration with PC Gaming. Whichever console you can get in these times is great for console gamers honestly. Good machine.

    Great value if you don't need the blu ray drive

    To me this looks better than the disc version. It packs the exact same hardware as the PS5 disc. But overall I decided to stick with the disc version instead so that I can watch blu ray discs and get games at cheaper price

    PlayStation 5 - is it worth it?

    It’s a Sony PlayStation 5... very good set of exclusive games, but I still enjoy the features of what the Xbox Series X provides, especially Xbox Live and their games library. Both consoles now sit pretty in my man cave.

    Omg this was the hardest product to buy for my son. It took allot of time and dedication but after a few months I was able to get my hands on one. He's enjoying his play station 5. To our surprise it's way bigger than the ps4.

    Amazing machine but the storage holds it back. I end up playing more Xbox since it holds more games and remote play is 100x better.

    You know what you're getting here. Its a new console, New Games, Better Graphics, Faster Loading times. Its just another step forwards for consoles. I'm just shocked they're still selling them for $499 and not more.

    Works great and is very user friendly. The Miles Morales Spider Man is the best PS5 game to date. The controller works good but I did run into a minor stick drift problem that was corrected after a few days.

    I managed to secure the bag, only to have to ditch my set up to fit this monster on the side of my TV. The stunning white and black reminds me of the yin-yan symbol as it represents the good and evil that goes into playing videogames. The remote feels perfect and I have never had an experience of having the trigger feel so real on a remote. I can assaisnate the target needed as I hear bullets coming from all directions in 3d sound. If you manage to get one, you will not regret it. Just remember to clear enough space for this mini computer.

    I'm surprised I was able to get it, once i saw the email i didn't hesitate and scored this one in particular was the second ps5 i was able to purchase from best buy. It's for my friend's step son I'm pretty sure he's gonna love it.

    What can I say, it's a PS5. Upgraded from a PS4 pro and it's a worthy addition to the PlayStation name. Currently playing PS4 games on it with super fast loading times. PS5 game library is kinda small at the moment.
