Customer Ratings & Reviews

Amazing graphics, but gosh Sony this is a hideous design and looks ridiculous in the entertainment unit. It's a sad day when the Xbox looks better than the PlayStation. I do love the new dual shock controllers though. The best games for the PS5 so far are Ghost of Tashima and Spider-Man.

If you can get one, get it. If you can't, don't worry it's still early and games are limited.

This console is a must buy, I was able to secure one at launch date console runs very quiet, games run smoothly with increased frame rates, fast/quick loading screens, fully backwards compatible with PS4 games, DualShock 4 is compatible with the PS5 as long as it’s a PS4 game being played, all in all great console get it while you can because they sell very fast and I recommend a 4K TV for the full next gen graphical experience

I love it. Fast loading speeds it’s pretty quite only downside for some people might be the size

As much as one would expect a launch console to have tons of problems, this one doesn't. In fact, you can bring your entire PS4 library with you to play games on this. If you don't have a PS4, get PS+ and Sony gives you 12 of their best games from PS4 for free with the console. One thing people get concerned with is the SSD: will it live up to PC gaming? The only way I can compare is by games I play on cross-play, namely Final Fantasy XIV. It's fun to see that I load into the area faster than other people because both the GPU and SSD work well in this baby. Internet works well on it, but definitely run ethernet if you want it at max speed. The remotes don't seem to have any input lag so you can play pretty well competitively in games, and connecting headphones can be done with a wireless connection to the system (via USB, usually) or through the controller (my preferred method). You can also mute/unmute your headset through the controller and the controller has a microphone and a speaker so you don't even need a headset (I suggest a headset for clarity though). The only thing I can think of as a problem on this is the switcher which is supposed to let you switch near seamlessly between games and apps, but it in fact just re-opens the app back to the starting menu when you use it. It's pretty disappointing since the Series X/S can run that function pretty smoothly.

Smooth and fast. Next gen graphics if you have a 4K@120hz TV With HDMI 2.1 it’s getting better

The best gaming console out there for the money and games

Love it, very good purchase. Additionally gives access to a Blu-ray player too.

Finally after months of trying, I was able to secure a PS5! It helps to follow Twitter accounts of people who post live updates of a drop, and also to have all your credit card & shipping info already stored in your BestBuy account. The console is beautiful and fast and the picture is remarkable.

Next gen gaming at it's finest, very cool! Love the Dualsense controller, truly next generation.

Well skeet skeet! I managed to get one! also, this thing is amazing. everyone who has not managed to get one yet, Just keep trying. Its like finding love, it is not suppose to happen over night, and you are never disappointed when you actually find it. (and all the bad reviews are like the people who are mad about seeing people in love, secretly they are just jealous of the people that have it so all they can do is hate)

Best system yet to come Fast loading Fast updates Awsome graphics Its best All games look awesome

Amazing system. Fantastic performance and overall gorgeous machine. was lucky to Pre order one...

Great product and a big upgrade from the PS4. Load screens are much faster.

Coming from the PS4 not Pro, this is so much faster. The feedback on the controllers is amazing!

Took forever to finally get one but runs great and looks amazing.I am happy with the purchase

Amazing load times and absolutely mesmerizing looking games. So excited for next gen with this!

I have traditionally been a PC gamer. I bought a PS4 pro to game with my 11 year old son and it was always slow compared to my gaming PC. I was fortunate to purchase the PS5 for my son during the holidays. I was so impressed with the seamless performance of the PlayStation 5 that I had to have one for myself! I find that I am mostly using the PlayStation 5 for gaming and streaming now! It is a Game Changer! 5Stars!

Outstanding next gen system. Controller and load times the biggest bonus. Well worth the wait.

Love this console...faster downloads. Better graphics. New controller is awesome!
