    It's the PS5. You'll lovr it. If you don't want to spend 1k+ on a halfway decent pc setup, this is definitely the way to go. The controller feels comfortable and the load times are fast. I do recommend you spend the extra for an expanded hard drive. If you play warzone it will eat up a huge chunk of space.

    Sony Delivers Again

    The entire thing feels like the future of gaming. The controller feels so unique that I almost couldn't believe it. The full potential hasn't even been used for it either yet. SSD means no loading times past 5-10 seconds which is amazing. For such an affordable price, you get a machine that competes with $1K+ gaming PC's. Definitely worth the upgrade

    Beautiful console and in my opinion, worth the upgrade from ps4. Although it is a whole lot bigger, i was able to find space for it easily. The controller is absolutely amazing, but does take a bit to get used to. In conparison to the dualshock 4, the new dualsense has a heftier yet more premium build. Overall an amazing console.

    This thing is big and ugly but other than that a great console. Loving the new controller especially. It really feels next gen and the triggers on it feel amazing for all fps gamers. Its got some some force feedback in them. I am enjoying spiderman remake before i jump into miles morales. Good luck to all trying to find one. I think best buy is ur best chance.

    Still working and going strong.. Can turn on the system and be in a game in under 30 seconds. The graphics on Demons Souls are unparallel. In game it takes 3 seconds to load each world. So happy I scored a pre-order. Best buy has been helpful through the entire process, if I had ordered elsewhere I doubt I would have my PS5.. The 1 1/2 hour drive was worth it.

    I was looking for one for my brother-in-law for Christmas and Best Buy came through with a few weeks to spare. He was excited about it and played Astro's Playroom and Spiderman Miles Morales. The console plays fine, but the graphical jump isn't as evident as with other console generation changes. The gameplay seems to play smoother overall though, will less loadtimes. There aren't as many heavy hitting PS5 games right now, so I would recommend people wait until there are some huge titles to really showcase the power of the console. By then, it should be easier to find. The controller is fantastic. Best Buy's employees quickly brought it out to my car using curbside pick-up and informed me on how to hold the box, as they've had issues with the boxes falling apart and the console falling out.

    New console new graphics new look. The speeds presented during the showcase are as I see them maybe better (I have a Sony TV so might have better compatibility than other tv brands). I will say I do not like the updated look on the home interface and the navigation through me off for a bit but otherwise plays everything so far as I would have hoped.

    Got this console day one. Getting set up after hooking up to the TV takes about five minutes. Once started this console is truly next gen with incredible graphics and audio, download times much faster than the PS4, and a controller unlike anything you've played with in the past. 4k blu ray movies look and sound outstanding. Could not recommend this console more!

    This is a great console, bleeding fast and nice looking. The dual-sense controller feels great, and the sensors and speaker make you feel at another level of gaming. The only caveat is that there is a lack of games. There are like 5 or 6 good PS5 games and that's all. There's a bunch of mid-tier or ps4 upgrades, but it's not the same.

    Well, i wanted the disc version to watch our movie collection on disc, but they were sold out when I got there. I was surprised this was even available. Been trying for the past couple years. For the little time ive gotten to play, it seems pretty cool.

    It is worth the stress of ordering one. Be patient and do not buy from a scalper! I just purchased an oled tv earlier and the graphics are amazing with the PS5. Load times are almost non-existent and the controller is amazing. Any PlayStation fan will love the AstroBot game preloaded on the system. So many PlayStation memories from that game. You will see.

    Great console just not many games out at the moment. The backwards compatibility feature is great though. Controller is very ergonomic and the consoles design is big yet sleek. Performance is absolutely astonishing at this price. Most definitely better value than a PC at this price with the current markets. Good luck getting your hands on one!

    Wow!! I'm super happy with this purchase!! I waited outside in the cold for almost 6 hours to finally get my hands on one of these and i couldn't be happier!! The speed is crazy fast the visuals are amazing and games that had previous problems are all running smoothly. I can understand why these are such a high demand item.
