    I can’t say enough, this is a gaming masterpiece. Even my PS4 games are much more enjoyable on the PS5. The controller is unbelievable when paired with games built for it. The haptic feedback feels so realistic.

    I know finding one is a real challenge and a lot of reviews reflect that issue. For my part, I think it is more useful to simply share my opinion about the system itself. I am thrilled with this console. It really is an impressive upgrade and I’m loving that my ps4 games are all either generally improved for loading times and many are updated to better use the added compute power. I also really love the new controller—especially impressive in the included astro play room game. My only complaint is the restriction to only allow dualsense controllers with ps5 games. This is a little silly considering I can literally fire up my ps4 and use a DualShock in the official ps5 remote play app to play a ps5 game. Just let us use any Bluetooth controller.

    Great console! Everything about it is awesome. Great feeling control and the haptic feedback I just something else. I love how the triggers give you different resistance for different guns when playing Call of Duty.

    Games play best on PlayStation. This console runs games at a native 4k and Sony claims they will unlock 8k down the road

    Best gaming system ever. Load times are quick. Game play is flawless. Backward compatible with PS4. Storage is a bit small so waiting for SSD availability. Everything I would expect in a next gen gaming system.

    Great product i love my PS5. Its hard to get your hands on it but worth it when you get it. So much better than the Ps4. Highly recommend purchasing the Ps Plus extra.

    It’s crazy how hard it is to get this product but so far haven’t played much on it other than Miles Morales but it always loads quick and love the controller. Could be smaller in weight but awesome either way

    PS5 won us over (for now, at least...)

    This is the one. I'm fortunate enough to pick up both the Playstation 5 and the Xbox series X this holiday season. The Playstation wins, hands down. I love the design of the Xbox, it's certainly a nicer console to look at - and there's no disputing its power (it's more powerful than the PS5). But after booting the Xbox up I felt like it felt like a lazy 'carry on' from the last generation. The Playstation 5 blew us away; the included astrobot game made us soon realize that both consoles are really different. I'm certain that the Xbox will grow into the next generation gaming platform but its evolution seems decidedly lazy (all power but no heart). Although, the Playstation 5 design looks large and ugly compared to the Xbox Series X.

    Can't help but look at it and think "dang what a chonk". Biggest console I've ever owned but doesn't bother me one bit. Really nice design, controller is awesome. UI is a bit confusing but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

    My son loves this console!!! It is rather large but overall it’s amazing, It took a lot to get it but I was able to secure it before Christmas. The graphics are great and he hasn’t complained about any glitching.

    I really feel blessed to have both of these at launch. The ps5 was harder to get due to the scalpers and limited stock thanks to Sony. I managed to get 2 series x and was able yo trade one for a ps5. As soon as you can get one, deff get one but it can wait til their restocked. Plz do NOT buy from the scalpers. Its not that serious.

    This console is crazy fast! Amazing graphics! However, if you're not using at least a 4k tv, you're missing out on so much! I played it on a 1080p screen the other day, just looks like PS4 graphics with ray tracing.

    Can’t express how impressed I am with the PS5! The graphics are amazing but the best new feature/component is the Dual Sense controller. Adds a new dimension to gaming. If you can find a PS5, buy it and love it!

    Amazing console, it makes my ps4 pro obsolete. I can play any ps4 or ps5 title online. Only drawback is the limited storage on the internal SSD, but there is an additional slot to add an additional SSD in the future.

    Good console. I like how easy it is to switch games or stop and start games. Dualsense is great but I've experienced joystick drift on two controllers
