Fantastic Console, I have been a Sony playstation Fan since the 1st generation. By all means try and get the disc version, even older PS4 games play a bit smoother than the PS4 Pro. To get the full capability out of this console you will need a true 120hz Native TV 4k or 8k and must have at least 1 HDMI 2.1 port. This will allow true 4k@120 again on games that support 4k 120 you will truly be next level Gaming. Also the SSD storage is about 800gbs which certain games will eat that up quickly. So add at least an extra 1TB/2TB SSD stick to expand the storage for PS5 Games. I also recommend getting a external hard drive and connect via USB for PS4 Games

The next generation of gaming has arrived after a seemingly long 7 years. The console looks incredible and at its best in a vertical orientation. The dual sense is the best controller Sony has ever released and the entire PSN catalog displays in a snappy, native 4K resolution. There are few hiccups out of the gate with the biggest being the lack of external storage. I know it’s coming but the onboard ssd capacity isn’t very big at all. I’ve been finding myself playing Tetris with storage space on more than a few occasions to accommodate big games that have yet to take advantage of the new hardware and it’s compression features. If you’re a Sony fan then you won’t be disappointed. I haven’t been this satisfied with a console since the PS2.

Worth it for the reduced load times alone. Quiet as a whisper, beautiful on my 4K tv, reflections on the water and improvements to visuals even on an upgraded PS4 game. I’m very happy with my purchase.

This console is blazing fast! I love the fact that I can play all my PS4 games on the PS5, while some of them also get improved graphics and frames per second. Looking forward to playing the new spiderman on this!

Hard to get next gen consoles but Best Buy took care of me. Graphics and speed are second to none. Love the ssd speed but size could be more stout. Purchase an external hard drive and you can expand storage space!

Super fast, excellent graphics. Easy to set up and transfer data from PS4. Trying to get one was the hard part. For the price it should come with a game, extra controller and a year subscription to PlayStation Plus

Does it really need a review? Super fast console, games look beautiful. Haptic controller is unique and game changing for immersion. Buy one when in stock

Much better and faster than the PS4. Great design and graphics as well as the best lineup in exclusive games. The new DualSense controller is also a big improvement over the DualShock 4. Get this when it becomes available.

To start, like many others, im amazed that I actually got my hands on one. I would like to thank Best Buy for marking the pick up of this device via curb side SO CONVENIENT so I didn’t have to wait long hours in a line. Now on to the device.....WOW! Initially prior to buying this device I was torn between purchasing the new Xbox or PlayStation, now I know I made the right choice! The controller is truly next level! The controller adds another level of immersion with its haptic feedback during the games! I must highly suggest, if you are planning to purchase a next gen console, purchase a tv that has the ability to optimize all the graphical capabilities this console truly has to offer. I can’t wait for more titles to be available to play on this console!

Controller is awesome and speed is insane feels very new gen unlike my series x. Basically if u are looking for the a brand new experience get a ps5 if u want more of the same just faster then get a xbox

The holiday gift everyone is looking for! Great graphics, the best games, super fast ssd and also great innovative new controllers! Hopefully it’ll get easier to get one of these by the time more games are released.

Love PS5. Only wish I had an internal M2 SSD to store games. I have 8tb external hard drive but it's too slow. Have to move games to PS5 storage when play. This can take a while. Can't store many games on PS5. Not crazy about white, the large size, and the terrible docking disc thing. You can't move the PS5 around after putting on that thing to plug in cables. Highly annoying! It falls off every time I love PS5. As long as don't touch PS5 it's fine. Not enough USB ports or at least distance between them on front. Need 1 for camera adapter, 1 for external hard drive, and 1 for psvr. I tried Arctic headset but the dongle was too large to use on front and had to unplug 1 USB connection.

If you are fortnuate to be able to get your hands on the newest console from Playstation you are in for a great experience. The graphics are astounding and are brought to life! The loading time is crazy fast! I expect to be waiting on a loading screen but most of the time i dont even have time to get a snack. Online games ofcourse take some time to connect and start up. The controllers are amazing their haptic feedback which is based on the environment you are faced with. Its great!!! All in all I am really enjoying it hopefully there will be more and more games to experience. I do not like the fact that they did not add more buttons to the controllers. Minor issue tbh

Love the system, haven't had any problems since I bought it at launch and it's late 2023 now. Runs quiet, only complaint is the low storage space, but you can add extra space if you want.

Splendid graphics, amazing load times and decent exclusives. While the fresh UI is very appealing, the 825gb (actually about 675 gb) is not that much. Very quiet and no errors so far. Great pickup service as well.

Amazing graphics and speeds. The process to order was super quick and easy. I’ve had it for four weeks now and the ray tracing and controller really bring a new experience to each game I love it. Definitely worth it.

I've been waiting for a while to get a PS5. As soon as I got it, it exceeded my expectations. The controller felt great, the SSD made loading times super fast, and the design is just beautiful.

Well being an older gamer and seeing the leaps in generations of consoles the Ps5 is awesome. I have Ps4 Xbox and I honestly say that this system will be the one to have. The ssd does make a difference but if you have a huge library of games for the Ps4 be careful. First the system will load certain data onto the system for Ps4 games and it counts towards the internal storage. And updating and downloading games will eat your data on your isp provider. I’m considering getting unlimited data because of how much data is used to download updates and so forth. The controller is different but feels good in you hands. But once the internal storage gets rectified for which ones you can use and games start coming out the system will be perfect.

Well, here I am, writing a review on a console that I fell in love with before I even got it! One day, when my kids are reading in their history books about the semi conductor shortage of 2020. I'll be able to reference this little thang and be like see that there on the wall, I got that amazing piece of machinery and it was the best purchase that I have ever made during that time.....and then go on about the amazing graphics, the haptic controller that amazed the world and the amazingly interesting build quality! I'll also tell them that I mistakenly put the CD into the PS5 the wrong way my first time........ So I'll say that..... make sure you put the CD in the right way. lol

Very well designed console. The digital version has a more aesthetically appeasing design, and I recommend this over the standard version. The 100 dollar price cut is a selling point, and the lack of a disk drive actually future proofs it because as systems age over time, quite often the disk drive is the first to have issues. People say that downloading games from the PS Store is expensive, but a new game on day 1 release costs the same no matter what, and the PS Store is having sales every day, lowering the price of games. The real spotlight is how good the DualSense controller is. This is the most innovative controller to come out since the Nintendo 64 controller. If utilized well, it can completely change how you play. Overall a good system.
