    Took forever to get but well worth it. Lightening quick loading speed and quicker game downloads really compliments the next-gen gaming experience. The new controller feels great and the game quality is out of this world

    Took forever to get, but worth the wait. Superior console and gets better with time. The media aspect is okay, but if you like having your gaming and media in one spot, then the ps5 is worth it.

    A fantastic system

    You really can't go wrong with the PS5. It has an expansive library that includes all (or quite nearly all) PS4 games through backwards compatibility. It has 4K output for fantastic looking games like Demon's Souls and 60fps settings for action games. The DualSense controller is in a league of its own in terms of the feedback it gives through rumble and trigger resistance as well as being quite sturdy. Over the past year and a half I haven't had a single hardware related issue and I've been playing more games than ever on it. If you can bear parting with your PS4 or PS4 Pro, I would 100% recommend trading those in for the newer model.

    A nightmare to purchase but let me tell you, when you manage to get one, it’s beyond worth your time, the console runs smooth, is promising and looks really clean, 10/10 playstation did not disappoint with this one.

    Overall it is a very good system. Multiple games have glitched out and need software patches. One game, we had to completely delete and reinstall in order to fix. Love the haptic feedback controllers. Fast load times.

    Great product but ginormous. Usually with constant improvements in technology products become smaller and more powerful. With the PS5 we are taking a backstop to the VHS Era, but the quality definitely lives up to the hype.

    8K………right?

    Little late to the party here but oh well. I mainly chose the digital version because it was cheaper but it is so much more convenient than having to eject and insert discs. Storage size is not very welcoming but easy SSD installation works like a charm (once you watch 3 or 4 videos on it). Controller is the best ever and load times are nearly instant. Only major complaint is the missing 8K support even though it’s plastered on the box.

    It's amazing, the speed is consistently 800 megabytes down and 500 up. And the response time is easily double or triple the ps4 when paired with an lg cx on game setting. I would say I am below 3ms. Which is better than most 1080p monitors. And I'm gaming on 65 inches 4k! I am super happy and my gaming has improved significantly. This is a pleasure to play and the cinematics are not only next gen but impressive in a way I can't describe as anything but breathtaking. Its real. The system is such an advancement, its night and day over previous iterations. Well done SONY I feel the money was worth it. And thats saying something considering with all the components and the tv I"m into this around 3500 dollars. (Although the prices have come down alot since I bought the tv.)

    The PS5 is great -- if you can get one

    The PS5 is great. It's super fast compared to last gen consoles (thanks to the faster CPU, GPU, and SSD), it's very quiet (you'll occasionally hear the disc drive whirring, but the fan is so quiet, that's about it), and PS5 games look amazing. PS4 games often look and run better too, and it runs virtually all of them. The new controller is impressive -- it feels great and it's new rumble and pressure-sensitive triggers feel revolutionary. The trick is finding a PS5 still -- get on twitter, enable push notifications, and follow the tracker accounts (such as Wario64) to hear about console drops. Then, get on your store of choice and work fast. You may get lucky, as I did.

    It’s the PlayStation 5

    The PlayStation 5 has been a significant upgrade to its predecessor. It’s a fast console with some enjoyable exclusives already out and able to be played. There’s not much to say about it’s third-party performance, but if you are only getting one nex-gen console and are in love with games like Horizon, God of War, or Ratchet and Clank, then you’ll be happy with the PS5. I would recommend waiting until a model comes out with larger storage though, or when more first party titles release.

    The games are excellent and so much fun. The console itself can be very appealing in some setups but is very large so is not for everyone. Picture quality and loading speeds are outstanding.

    So far no complaints. I was lucky enough to get on online before any of the scalpers did. Great speed, the dashboard is a nice touch and the controller is the best part. I hope games continue to incorporate the dual sense.

    Playstation 5 is a fantastic console. The new controller has to be experienced to understand. I suggest jumping into Astro's Playroom right out of the box, which comes free with the console. The console itself is bigger than expected but stand on it's own well enough to be tucked to the side on my entertainment center. The UI is simplistic like the PS4, but it gets the job done without tons of ads and clutter. The loading times on next gen are what really make the difference as games load in less than five seconds that are taking advantage of the hardware. If you can get your hands on one of these for sure give it a try because we know Sony will keep making great exclusives for this generation like they have in the past.

    The exclusives are amazing, and the future looks very bright heading into 2021. Everything is smoother than on the PS4. The DualSense controller feels amazing as well. If you are a huge gamer, get this as soon as possible.

    Time for next-gen. While the PS5 is incredibly hard to find, it does feel like a step up from the PS4 (which is a good console itself). Some things you will immediately notice are faster load times and better graphics.

    Amazing console, quick load times, beautiful interface. Digital edition is able to store about 8-9 games at once which is more than enough! Controller feels great in hand. Best part is the fan, no noise and dead silent.

    I have had the PS5 since November and I can say it's an improvement over the PS4 Pro. I wish they would add the support for the internal ssd expansion slot already. I run out of storage space far too quickly.
