    Love it. Unbelievably fast can't wait for the new games to keep rolling out. Controller is nice and has a nice texture. Wish it had larger ssd somewhat of a disappointment. Also begs the question what happens when the ssd fails and the operating system is in the main ssd ? Only time will tell.

    Not sure how but I got one. And it’s beautiful Spider-Man plays smooth and looks better than ever. Sack boy is a jaw dropping opening sequence that stuns at first glance and continues through gameplay. Astro boy is a fantastic way to showcase the controller, crisp 4k graphics and tight surround. Worth it!!!!!!

    There isn’t really much to say besides this is a PS5 and it’s everything you could ever imagine. Great gaming console with much life and speed. I just wished that the games weren’t so big , because they fill up the onboard storage space rather quickly.

    Fantastic console and fantastic purchase. Was able to reserve one on the app for my local store and do curbside pickup. It couldn’t have been smoother just had to wait a week. The console itself is great, amazing graphics and the new controller makes it even better. The console to get so keep trying!

    Got this for my dad and he was so excited when I got to tell him I was picking it up. 6 month journey trying to secure my dad a ps5. He had a PS4 and right away he saw the speed difference with the ssd and the graphics were much improved. Definitely a great score for my dad

    Great update to the PlayStation! I love the ease of use, quality of games, and style. It is very expensive but worth it. It was so hard to get one of these. I was disappointed with the availability.

    Console graphics have come a long way

    Overall a very powerful console that can crank out PC level visuals in their first-party games. I haven't yet played anything 3rd party, but so far Returnal, Demon's Souls, and Ghost of Tsushima look incredible and run extremely well at 60 FPS. I will say though that the console itself is really large, but what can you expect when it's this powerful. I'm not a huge fan of the flared our panel design, but a 3rd party replacement panel can fix that for you if you really hate it. The other thing absolutely worth mentioning is the DualSense Controller. The haptics/vibration are second to none and the adaptive triggers are truly next level. The controller speaker itself seems to have slightly improved over the last generation's DualShock 4 Controller speaker. In summary, if you can get your hands on this console and are really interested in 2 or 3 of the first party games that Sony has to offer, it's most definitely worth the buy,

    The loading speed on this machine is so much better than the PS4, it's insane! The design of this machine looks physically appealing also. My only caviot though is you can't customize your home screen anymore. Maybe they will release that in due time, but for now, I miss it.

    Everything about the PS5 has been upgraded. The loading speed is crazy fast on PS5 games and some PS4 load a lot quicker than the previous console. The controller feels amazing. It’s a great upgrade. I was very lucky to get my hands on one on launch. I look forward to seeing what this console can really do.

    The long awaited PS5 is here, and it was worth it. Of course there are always software bugs at launch, but it hasn’t changed the playability. Everything is so fast, and the graphics are better than expected. It is amazing how much of a difference there is between the PS5 and PS4Pro. Definitely worth the wait

    I was able to get a PS5, picked it up with the extra controller without having to pay a scalper for the privilege. The system is great, Spider-Man is outstanding (especially if you've never played the PS4 version), the new controller feels good and hey, its a new console during a national lockdown!

    I cant believe that I was lucky enough to get a PS5. It has definitely been as advertised. The loading speeds are ridiculously fast. So fast that I lose track of how long I have been playing. The controller is for sure what makes the console next gen. I hope that developers utilize this to its fullest.

    Great console to have. Problem is hard drive space to play ps5 and ps4 games. Overall the games is fast graphics look better than ps4. Just waiting for ssd drive to down in price to move my ps4 games to ps5 console. For now buy a portable or desktop hard drive for ps4 games and move it to ur ps5

    Getting this was an odyssey for sure. I missed it at other retailers because of scalpers and bots but I was lucky enough to get it on launch day from Best Buy.. This thing is awesome. It’s a bit bulky, yes, but I don’t mind. I really like how fast it is and all the attention to detail. So far no complaints!

    My PS5 Experience

    First, let me go over the ordering experience at Best Buy. It was brutal trying to place a pre-order on Sep 17, but eventually got in. I had anticipated receiving my PS5 on November 12th, so was surprised to find out that I wasn't actually going to receive it till November 17th. My brother ordered his from Walmart and had it delivered on the 12th. He managed to platinum astro bot while I was still waiting for my PS5! Shipping box was ripped, but the PS5 box itself was in good condition. When I powered on the device, I was able to setup/update/transfer my existing PS4 saves/games with ease. At first, I didn't know how to power off/restart/put the system into sleep mode. UI is a bit different coming from the PS4. I experienced one hard crash when I attempted to go into the game capture recording from one the videos I made. I had to physically power off/on the device to get it working again. Platinum Astro Bot and loved the experience. I expected more of a quick demo, but this felt more like a full game similar to Mario/Astro Bot VR.

    Loving the PS5! It’s way bigger than the PS4, which surprised me. The controllers are an upgrade over the previous consoles. Games load way faster, but the initial game downloads are about the same time. Can tell a bit of difference with the HDR, but the graphics weren’t an overwhelming difference.
