    Holy Cow. This is awesome. I understand why it is so hard to find. Graphics are amazing. Load times are way better. I downloaded 3 games in under a hour, when my other systems would all day for one.

    Going from a PS4 to the 5 is pretty amazing. Loading is lightning quick. I use to be able to get up and go do little tasks around the house during loading times on the 4, not with the 5 though, I get enough time to stand up and then have to sit back down cause it is that fast. The visuals is also a huge improvement over the 4. Very immersive with the higher refresh rate. I never thought I was going to find one to purchase and have been looking since they were launched. Thankfully I caught a delivery at my local Best Buy on a visit there for a different item.

    Definitely lives up to the hype for next generation. Playstation goes beyond standards for gaming with the haptic feedback on the controllers and having the same features as the blu-ray version.

    I love this console as it’s simply amassing. It’s so fast and slick it’s incredible. The graphics are jaw dropping and the 3D pulse headphones are an amazing compliment. Couldn’t ask for anything more.

    Best PS ever made! As of now the PS5 has performed amazingly. Only needed a minor update and one thing that sticks out is the speed of this console. Another thing I am appreciating is the quietness!!

    I have only had Nintendo and Microsoft systems for a long time and really wanted a PS4. This feels like a perfect time to get into the Playstation ecosystem for anyone else in this position. I have a Series X as well, and both of them have their advantages, but if you never had a PS4, this is a no-brainer. Catching up on PS4 titles and enjoying the graphical showcases with the PS5-exclusive titles make this an excellent system and one I already love! That said, it IS pretty gigantic, which makes it hard to place on my entertainment center, but since my TV is on top of mine, it's easy enough to just hide the system behind it.

    I got this chonky mf'er for Destiny 2 and let me tell you, it's amazing and 100 percent worth it. The console itself is ginormous so make sure you have room for it but other than that, no negatives.

    Excellent console, the system is overall very fast and responsive and the controller has been greatly upgraded. If you have a recent model Sony tv you can use your tv remote on the PS5 user interface.

    The DualSense Makes This Console Amazing

    I'd like to first call out how much I hate the fact that these consoles are being bought in bulk by scalpers. It's unreal what people have to go through to purchase just one of these. If you don't have one, please keep at it and don't buy above retail if at all possible. The Playstation 5 console is amazing. I own all consoles, including a Series X & Switch, and can say that the DualSense is what constantly has me leaning towards my Playstation more with titles. The adaptive triggers and haptic feedback make it so much more of an immersive experience. I strongly recommend this be your first console purchase if you're on the fence wondering which one to go with.

    Honestly, what do you expect? It's next-gen. The console itself to begin with looks like some type of alien object that's casually placed in your living room. The controller is fantastic, much bigger so it can grip in my hands properly now. I always liked the PS4 controller but now holding this I can see how much less of a controller it is compared to the PS5's. Lastly, you honestly won't get the full next-gen experience​ until HDMI 2.1 4k monitors come out that runs over 120hz. So if money is a little tight I​ would wait till it dies down. Not worth paying over retail for this console. So if you were thinking of buying it from those scalpers don't.

    This is a great addition to my console collection. The only con is that it takes up an entire shelf alone. It's sleek and futuristic. Definitely a conversation and stand out piece.
