    Great console and visuals, performance is good, games crash often from time to time. Sucks you CANT have BOTH extended FPS AND Ray tracing on at the same time for some games at the moment. Personally I feel that this console was rushed overall. Still a great console but in reality as far as “next gen” comes, I would say this is the PS 4.5. The PS pro is a 4.25. Would recommend buying it but not so much of a big jump compared to PS2 to PS3 or Ps3 to Ps4

    Great console! The speed is amazing compared to my previous ps4. The ray tracing coupled along with the ability to go 60 fps on many games contributes towards a beautiful experience.

    Already love my PS5. The fast load times blow last generation out of the water. The games that are available right out of the gate gives players more than enough experiences to choose from

    Easy to purchase and runs great. 4k, HDR, smooth 60fps, and was easy to setup. Unlike the disc version it has no Blu-ray drive but fortunately that keeps it from having random noises.

    Awesome gaming system. Personally I like it better than Xbox series x but there’s a lot of games that may not be on PS anymore soon so it’s best to get both.

    This is one incredible and impressive console. Runs so much quieter and cooler than last gen. All games played on the PS5 have either impressive upgrades or smooth performance overall.

    Day and night difference between PS4 and PS5. System is rather large and takes up a lot of space but is worth the hassle given the power that runs through it. Can’t wait for more games

    Amazing step forward with graphics and power. Great as a media center as well with many TV and Movie apps. This is the next-gen console to get, much better gaming experience than Xbox X.

    Best console. Better than Xbox. Managed to snatch it on September 16 and was staying up all night to grab one and I did. I have enjoyed this console for the past three months straight.

    Good console although bigger than I would like. Was finally able to order this on Best Buy online in Jan 2022 and picked it up from the store shortly after.

    After finally wading through all the crazy demand, I got my shiny hands on a disc-version PS5. The next gen games I have played on the console are gorgeous, and future titles will only get better... which is exciting. It plays PS4 games exceedingly well, and I'm sure more and more will get updates to make even more use of the new hardware. The only negative is that it lacks an optical out, which my wireless headset needs to function its best... but there was a relatively simple solution, albeit one that takes up an additional USB port. Search for PS5 HDMI optical splitter if you have any devices that need an optical audio connection to your console.
