    It was quite difficult to pre-order the PS5, and I hope anyone that still wants one gets one soon because it really is unfair that the gamers aren't able to land one whilst scalpers have so many. I think the one star reviews aren't a clear representation of how amazing this system is. The PS5 has run beautifully and so intelligently from what I've experienced. The set up was easy and fast. The technology of Dualsense Controller is crazy AMAZING. It is probably the next best thing (only second to the console itself) with the way it works. It's not as slippery like the Dualshock and feels great in hand. Overall, the console runs very smoothly and I was surprise to have not experienced any sort of loudness with it at all up to this point. I will admit that I like to play games favoring performance over the resolution. You will absolutely get a higher FPS and I think it just runs a lot better that way. Would highly recommend this to anyone that wants to experience next gen even though we've just merely begun to play those games. I cannot wait to see what developers do with this system!

    Bought this for my daughter she was very happy. I have had one since day one. Have not experienced any problems what so ever. Its a amazing machine and the controler is fantastic . That being said hard to get and not alot of games out for it that are exclusive. So ps4 will do the job till u can afford or find one.

    The device itself is great, but I want to use this review to praise how easy the in store pick up was at my local Best Buy in Wheaton MD. I went the day after Black Friday, the store seemed pretty ransacked, yet the staff was very helpful and handed me the PS5 incredibly fast after confirming ID and all matched. Great Job!

    Better than expected. I skipped PS4 and went Xbox glad a came back. As advertised load times are amazing, extra functions on the controllers are nice to have including built in mic/speaker. Waiting for more available options with the 8k playback and expected patch that allows VRR support but all in all great system so far.

    Having issues with the wifi staying connected, errors any time I try downloading anything onto the external drive. Loud. Confusing interface- I didn't care for the PS4's interface compared to the PS3's, but this one is even worse. But the games look pretty and the PS4 games run smoother or quicker as well so that's nice. If you're struggling to find one don't worry, you're not missing out on anything important quite yet. By the time you're able to find one hopefully the current "must have" games will be on sale and there'll be more new and exciting titles to pick from

    Excited to see what future updates will make possible. Won't outperform a high end PC, but graphics are still great at 4k and 60 FPS on PS5 games, even some PS4 games that devs have upgraded. Backwards compatability is a huge highlight. Chat with screen share and pic in pic is a great feature for social gaming.

    I really like the PlayStation 5. This is my first video game console purchase since the PlayStation 3. I have noticed a vast change in graphics and I am loving it. I can't wait to purchase many of the games system is currently providing. Best Buy you are the best for getting me my PlayStation 5 on time as scheduled.

    The console itself has worked well for me. I've had a few crashes but I think that was an issue with Black Ops. The dualsense controller feels very comfortable and the haptics and adaptive triggers are very cool. Astros playroom demos these features really well. The user interface does feel new but it also feels unfinished and tedious to navigate sometimes. I picked the PS5 over the Series X mostly due to the fact that I have a gaming PC and can play xbox exclusives on it. The dualsense and the exclusive games are things I can't experience on PC. If it's going to be your main game machine I think it'd be a harder decision. As I said in the title, very worth it for $500 plus tax. Just don't buy it from scalpers for more than that.

    If you are looking to upgrade from your PlayStation or Xbox then this console is worth it. Certified PS5 made games look very good compared to old gen consoles and the 120 FPS is worth very much worth it. Trying to obtain may be hard but just be persistent in getting one.

    It's PS5 of course it's awesome! I haven't had any issues with it only that I wish i had more time to play instead of work/kids/life. The graphics are insane and as more and more games come out for it it will only get better. You can see the difference when comparing same games on PS4/switch etc

    PS5 is a excellent console. There is a current chip shortage along with insane demand making it hard to acquire. My reasoning behind making this review is to get my 25 points (BestBuy offers 25 points for every review made on products purchased. Once you get enough points, it gives you a free $5.)

    What can I say, its a PS5. It has everything the ps4 pro has plus a 4k player. Its a true all in one system. So far there are no games that fully showcase the PS5 capabilities, but spiderman is probably the closest you can get to what the ps5 can do right now. All in all its exactly what everyone thought it was gonna be.
