    So far it’s pretty slick. Easy to set up and transfer info from PS4. Use Ethernet cable for that though. Goes much faster

    Great console. So fast than previous generations. Also, I can play on TV with 120 FPS. The only issue is too big.

    Got my hands on one finally after almost 2 years of waiting, worth the wait. Don't sleep on Astro's Playroom. The controller feels great in the hand. Quick load times. The power & eject hard buttons are varied in size thankfully (I always confused the same buttons on the PS4). Minor personal complaints, 825gb preinstalled...why not 1tb? I wish the console was black to match the rest of my entertainment center.

    Getting this pre-order took a lot of effort and the wait was worth it in the end. This game console is next level with faster loading screens, 4K-8k better graphics, and the design of the console looks stunning! Definitely would get my hands on one if I wanted a better gaming experience. P.S. Best Buy’s Customer Care team is fantastic! They had an answer for every problem I had during the pre-order process. Best Buy has a loyal, happy, and lifetime customer after my experience with their customer service. Thank You BestBuy!

    It's so much quicker and quieter than the PS4 it replaces. Just wish they weren't so hard to get your hands on.

    Love the new PS5, great upgrade from my airplane of a PS4. Many new features, better quality. Still wish capacity was bigger with how big game downloads are.

    Great console, but not worth scalper tax.

    It’s a solid console with a lot of potential, but right now there’s pretty much just Demon Souls and Spider-Man. Also, Cyberpunk runs fine on it. New controller is REALLY nice, and Astro’s Playroom does a great job showing off the new features. Runs PS4 games a little better than the PS4-Pro, but it’s nothing crazy. Can’t say much on the load times, as I’ve had an SSD in the PS4-Pro forever, but I’m sure it’d be a huge difference coming from the old HDD. Grab one if you can, but it’s definitely NOT worth paying a scalper.
