    What can I say? This is the best current gen console hands down. The first party titles blow xbones out of the wster... Oh right they don't have any yet. Returnal and demon souls are must purchases with this console.

    I was able to grab one, two weeks after release and so far its been worth the wait. The quality and performance upgrades are noticeable from set up and game play is AMAZING.

    I purchased the TotalTech membership in order to have an opportunity to purchase the PS5. THANK YOU BestBuy for using a method to deter bots from eating up the inventory before anyone had a chance to add to the cart. I promptly cancelled the TotalTech membership once I received my PS5. It wasn't beneficial/sensible for me to continue having it as I don't purchase ALOT of electronics or appliances very often. Now if you are a person that does, the membership has lots of perks and benefits which pay for themselves. The PS5 doesn't disappoint at all. It's everything and more. Please don't lose faith in securing one for yourself. Be patient and your time will come.

    Good console looks nice and has fast loading times and works good would recommend using a HDD ps5 external hard drive to add more storage for certain games the ps5 only has 667.7 GB of storage

    What can I say? Next generation gaming is awesome. Gameplay is so smooth. Load times were fast, I mean really fast. The only thing I think it's a downside, is hard drive size. It's small. You will need a external hard drive.

    So glad to finally get a PS5! Best Buy is always my go to and the easiest to get new electronics.. About the console itself, it’s by far the best next gen console! I even use it as my 4K player with no issues.

    I use my PS4 to hold open the window after buying this thing. Hotdamn this is way better than the PS4. I feel bad for everyone who thinks that Xbox is superior. You're all foolish

    Amazing console and with even better games. It would be 5 stars but it lacks backwards compatibility with ps3 and lower.

    From someone who owned a PS4, this console is an absolute beast! It loads and handles all triple-A games within seconds, and so far, no major crashes occur. I totally have no regret upgrading to it from my previous gen console.

    The PS5 is a genuine leap forward for console gaming, offering gorgeous 4K performance, stunningly fast load times and a truly game-changing controller that makes playing games more immersive and tactile than ever.

    Gotit as a gift for my friend who has been trying to "secure the bag" (ps5 slang) since November. She loves it! She can finally play Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart in all its next gen glory! Thank you Best Buy!

    I did not think I was gonna get it when I went to Best Buy. Despite the line, I was able to get it and I have been enjoying it. I can’t wait to see what other games pop up for the PS5.

    This is the hottest item to get and definitely worth the wait. Loading times are so fast compared to the PS4. Only downside is storage, however if you invest on a NVME SSD that will resolve your issue.
