    Wonderful successor to the PS4. User interface is a bit different, but works very smoothly and quick. Load times are fast and the system overall is silent other than the disk drive spinning. No fan noise at all. Buy it if you can find it. Well worth the money

    Was able to get this a year ago to date, and so far no issues or complaints, if you’re able to get one you should. Playstation is about to get some great exclusives in the coming year, and these games will be impressive on the PS5.

    Exceptional console and probably the best price per performance you can get or bang for your buck. Controller feedback is absolutely amazing and graphics capabilities are unparalleled. Would recommend getting one if you can get these for retail!

    The console itself seems amazing. However, I purchased this as a gift and will have to wait until Christmas to see how great it truly is. The queue system was somewhat helpful, but it is difficult if you can’t find a shop with stock

    Yesssirrrr! best console out. Took a while to get it but it was worth it. The biggest tip I can give you guys is to follow as many PS5 Drop Twitter pages to have an Idea when they are dropping. Shout out @Jake_Randall_YT for helping me secure this Beast.

    Best Buy handles the online sell SOOOOO much better than Wal-Mart & I feel better than Target as well. I got a PS5 on launch, but I was still trying to get friends & family one as well. The PS 5 is massive, but I’ve had some much fun with it! Great product.

    Fantastic but a work in progress

    I was one of the fortunate few to get the right to purchase this coveted product. After owning it for 5-6 months I think I can provide a good overview. Thanks to PS4 backwards compatibility and PS5 upgrades there is already a large library of games, however this comes back to bite you later as the internal SSD can't handle more than a handful of triple A games, this spring Sony added external SSD for storage but you can't play PS5 games from that. The frustrating thing is that every system comes with an internal SSD expansion bay but it is still unusable. If you are interested in the games available on PS5 I would strongly recommend; but for the average consumer I would suggest waiting until it is easier to find, all the extra features get added/polished, and more games built to take full advantage of the hardware become available.

    The jump in graphics is not as jaw-dropping as previous console refreshes. The increase in frame-rate and load times make it a worthwhile upgrade for the Playstation fan. The addition of AAA PS4 titles included with a PS Plus subscription makes it a must.

    I was finally able to get a PS5 in March and I love it! I have owned all of the past Sony systems and this one did not disappoint. The PS Collection is a very nice touch. The only thing to mention is that it is a big and heavy console.

    Next-gen for sure! Software, games, controllers feel very fluid and fast. The graphics are beautiful! If you grew up playing PlayStation.. you already know you will love this. For the Xbox peeps.. just come on over to Sony.. I know your considering it.

    I really like this PS5! The picture quality is great along with my OLED TV. The controller upgrade is also nice and still fits my small hands. I just wish it wasn’t such a hard console to get so everyone can experience how awesome it really is.

    I was lucky enough to get one in my cart during Black Friday. The console itself is very nice, albeit very large. I couldn't barely fit it on my desk, so be wary of the size. Other than that, it's a super nice console. Also, Astro's Playroom is super fun.

    Amazing gaming console and awesome exclusive game titles make this an easy purchase. The PS5 dual sense controller is night and day better than the XBOX controller. Definitely add a PCIe x4 M.2 SSD to this for extra storage!

    Kid loves it!!! He sold his old system and a bunch of his other stuff and paid for it with his own money. Oddly shaped and much bigger than previous system. Have to lay it down because standing it up is not much of an option with most entertainment centers.

    Very advanced and futuristic. Way quicker than the original ps4. Doesn’t have any new games yet but definetly worth the upgrade. It is pricy but worth the money.

    I have been trying since 11/12/20 to purchase one. One failure after another. Until 11/22/20 at 4:30am, BestBuy Online changed my dreams to reality. I had purchased a new 4K television to get the full affect of the graphics. This is a Whole New World to me.

    Finally a launch console that has a ton of games to play. Sure they’re a lot of ps4 games but compared to every other past console, these come with performance upgrades like playing something old on an upgraded pc. Truly a great buy if you never owned a PS4Pro
