    Solid upgrade to the PS Consoles Major downside is limited availability If you have a lot of games will probably need to upgrade memory unless you don't mind erasing/ reloadingThe PS5 games are big (in terms of storage)

    After two years, this is still a great system. I've had no issues with it. The storage on this edition fills up quickly with the large games of today, but I don't miss having disks.

    This is next generation. Spiderman Miles Morales looks great(in fidelity mode) and runs great(IN performance mode which is 60 frames-per-second). I really like that I can play all of my old PS4 games on this machine many of which at smoother framerates.

    Good console, but I think it’s a bit bulky and looks like a folder. I imagine Sony will release a smaller version in the near future, which would be much better. Sony makes this much better by giving free games with every ps5 purchase.

    This console is amazing! I really love how best buy beat the bots and allow the every day folk (like myself) be able to cop one. The graphics are phenomenal and it is everything I expect and MORE from a next gen console! Thank you so much best buy!

    Waited a very long time for this system and we finally scored one. A bit confusing in the beginning since the layout is different, also bulky in person. Will take time getting used to its size compared to the sleek design of the ps4

    A great price savings as compared to the Disk version if you are not one who cares about having physical disks of your games. It is sleek and modern looking and Sony absolutely got it right with the new technology built into the DualSense controllers!

    Come on, it's a PS5. What is there not to like? 4K graphics at 120Hz, 8K at 60Hz, tends to get a bit hot after playing high demanding games from time to time but not hot enough to where I wouldn't get one.

    As someone who likes to have the "New Shiny" as early as possible, I was very pleased that my PS5 arrived on release day! I have had a blast with it so far! Demon's Souls is a brilliant launch title, recapturing and improving upon the 2009 PS3 title. Miles Morales continues the magic from 2018's Spider-Man, in a shorter, but more focused campaign. But shockingly, the bundled-in Astro's Playroom is probably the most fun I have had with my new console! It oozes fun and charm and is simultaneously a love letter to all thing Playstation and also a thorough showcase of what the DualSense controller is capable of! For me, this purchase hit all the right notes, but I could definitely say that a large portion of gamers can probably wait to get one until there are a few more exlusives!

    Awesome tech can’t stop playing my ps5 took me few months to be able to get it but when I did I was so lucky as this consoles are so hard to get your hands on. Luckily I have a Best Buy card that made it easier for me to get it when they dropped.

    besides being a big space ship the ps5 has been fun to have. As an xbox fan I like the controller overall but still not a fan of the straight across thumbsticks. But normal PS players won't mind this. Pick up from Best Buy was extremely easy.

    Got lucky in getting the digital version of this incredible gaming console in the flash sale. The dual shock controller is next gen with haptic feedbacks and what makes playing games on PS5 an entirely different experience!! Been my best buy so far!

    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 was fortunate enough to score this system early and picked it up on launch date. I was so excited. Anyway, it’s a great machine and the new dual sense controller is awesome. But here I am several months later and I have hardly used my PS5. It seems like most of the games I’m interested are available on the ps4. You can play those games on the PS5 but on many games it gives a warning that games may not run correctly. So for now I’m just like “cool, I have a PS5” but have not really found myself being excited about playing any of the games so far.

    it's quiet, starts up fast, and apps and games launch quickly. the dualsense controller is a neat and worthy change from the dualshock. definitely like the disc version. the only negative is that the ssd expansion slot is still not active.

    The SSD load times are sick, just wish the size wasn’t so small, or at least that there was expansion SSD memory available/approved/enabled from the jump.
