Customer Ratings & Reviews

Really happy with this console. Switched over to PlayStation from Xbox, and I’m really glad I did. For story-mode games, I think PlayStation edges out with some incredible games. Spider Man, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Uncharted have all been fantastic to play with the latest graphics and high speed frame rates. Looking at getting Ghost of Yotei soon as well, which would look incredible on the PS5. To get the most out of the PS5, it helps to have a good enough monitor/TV that can support the higher frame rate (at least 60 fps) and resolution (around 3K-4K), especially for story mode games with good cinematic gameplay. If you can get this on sale ($450), like I did, this console is a great find. I prefer the disc version just so I can play the older games easier, but if the budget is tight, digital only is a solid choice too.

This was a Christmas gift for my son. It’s the 1st PlayStation he’s owned but has played on previous models and says the 5 is amazing! The graphics are better, great controller, the slim console is a plus and all around a better system. He loves it! Definitely worth purchasing!

Absolutely love my PlayStation! The graphics are stunning, the performance is super smooth, and the load times are incredibly fast. The controller feels great, and the immersive gaming experience is next level. Definitely a must-have for any gamer!

Bought the PS5 as a birthday present and it was a huge hit. The console is fast, quiet, and the graphics are amazing. Definitely worth the purchase and an excellent gift for any gamer

Great quality just needed to upgrade memory…. Love that it’s slimmer and saves more space but still has the same power as the first version … it’s two type c ports instead of usb and type c for front ports but I can tell Sony is just keeping up with times

Bought it open box, great condition and runs amazing. Shipped very quickly. Only thing is there was some wear on the controller (the indent on the sticks that happen over time from the stick rubbing against the controller) but I'm pretty sure that's an issue that would require a new controller instead of being able to fix it. Runs like new tho! If you are looking for a PS5 it's a steal.

The PlayStation 5 has exceeded my expectations in every way. From the sleek design to its incredible performance, it's clear that Sony has delivered a next-generation console worth the hype. The PS5 slim storage can be upgraded with an NVMe SSD

I had been trying for a while to find a PlayStation 5. I checked Target, GameStop, and even looked at ordering online, but the delivery times were showing about a week, and I was too excited to wait that long. After some searching, I noticed that Best Buy had same-day pickup available at a location about 30 miles from me. I made the drive, and honestly, it was worth it. The pickup process couldn’t have been easier. It took me less than five minutes in the store to get my PS5 along with an additional controller. The staff was helpful, organized, and made the whole experience smooth from start to finish. The console itself is amazing. Setting it up was simple, and I’ve been enjoying every minute of gaming since. The performance, the graphics, and the overall feel of the DualSense controller are on another level compared to older consoles. I really appreciate the way Best Buy handled this purchase. I went from just thinking about buying a PS5 to actually playing on one the very same day, without the stress of waiting for shipping or dealing with long in-store hassles. My satisfaction level after this purchase is honestly very high. Highly recommend Best Buy if you’re trying to get your hands on a PS5 their same-day pickup made all the difference for me.

Wow! First time owning a Playstation. After having spent sometime at Best Buy talking over it with the very knowledge staff. I applied for a Best Buy credit card and was granted credit right there on the spot! I used the card to not only purchase my new PS 5, I also got a great deal on a home theater sound system to complement and enhance my gaming experience. If you haven't had the Playstation experience, and not sure if you want to, I can say as a gamer from the 80's and this being my first time owning a Playstation I am so impressed and couldn't be happier! Easy to set up and navigate through its good to familiarize yourself with the menu, settings and controller options. Most of these have easy to follow in-game tutorials and support. The DualSense Wireless Controller fits nicely in your hands and has many features, (I played through the Astro's PLAYROOM tutorial, that was pre-installed with my PS5 console) Super fun and easy to interact with, you'll be surprised and amazed by the many functions of this controller designed to give you the ultimate gaming experience! The PS5 Console looks amazing. Out of the box it has white detachable face plates which can be swapped out for different designs and colors, (I changed mine to Black) Most come with the standard features and products like power cords, USB cables. (Check your box for details) Knowing how to take on and off the face plate will help with cleaning and general maintenance. I have my PS5 Horizontal in a dust free area, and it looks great and fits right in. For my first gaming experience I chose the game Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered for the PS5. Playing this game on an Olde screen really puts you into another world. You can tell a lot of care went into the game, as some of the details are stunning. I often stop just to watch the sunset. With the controller rumbling and pushing out sound effects from the game just puts you even deeper into this beautiful colored and vibrant world. But no matter the experience you're looking for Im sure you'll find it here with the PS5 Slim Console! Enjoy the future of Gaming!

Storage is great, runs smoothly and never really had problems

love love love this console obsessed with the design and the graphics output hats off to the design team

I’ve been using the PlayStation 5 for a while now, and it has completely changed how I enjoy gaming. The first thing I noticed is how fast everything loads — switching between games or hopping into a match takes just seconds compared to older consoles. The graphics are stunning, especially on games that take full advantage of 4K and ray tracing. Playing on a PS5 feels like stepping into a more detailed and immersive world. Another highlight is the DualSense controller. The adaptive triggers and haptic feedback add a whole new layer to gameplay, whether it’s feeling the resistance of pulling a bowstring or the subtle vibration of footsteps on different surfaces. It makes even simple moments more engaging. I also like how quiet the console runs despite its power. Even during longer sessions, it doesn’t sound like a jet engine, which was sometimes an issue with the PS4. The storage space is solid for now, but with the size of modern games, I can see myself upgrading in the future. Overall, the PS5 feels like a true next-generation console. Between the speed, visuals, and the innovation of the controller, it makes gaming more enjoyable and immersive than ever.

Excellent Console for my needs. The graphics and display on my TV is remarkable. I am able to play my PS4 games and new PS5 games. Great upgrade from my ps4.

Been playing in a ps4 since 10 years ago, now that i bought this ps5 im just impressed of the piece of technology that i have in my hands. I love the design, and the fluenty of the videogames. I love it

Super efficient, great graphics, ultra-fast compared to the previous version. You have to place it in the correct position, otherwise it might give a disc reading error.

The PlayStation 5 (PS5) has redefined my gaming experience, delivering cutting-edge technology and immersive gameplay. Here’s what I think about it after [X weeks/months] of use: Design & Build The PS5's futuristic design is striking, with its sleek curves and bold white-and-black color scheme. While the console is larger than its predecessors, its presence feels premium and justified by the powerful hardware inside. The customizable faceplates are a nice touch for personalization. Performance This console is a beast when it comes to performance. Games load incredibly fast thanks to the ultra-high-speed SSD, virtually eliminating long wait times. Titles like [e.g., Spider-Man: Miles Morales or Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart] showcase its power with stunning 4K graphics and buttery-smooth frame rates.

I waited for several years to upgrade from PS4 to PS5. When I found out that I was going to be forced to upgrade if I wanted to keep playing online I wasn't very happy, PlayStation is getting rid of the online network for PS4. My wife purchased the PS5 for me for Christmas and, while the cost is higher than I'd like, the quality really shines through, from the online network, to the PlayStation and controllers. I only have 1 actual PS5 game right now but when I play the PS4 games on it, everything looks cleaner, the game responds faster and everything overall is better. I still wish they would give us more internal storage.

The PlayStation 5 Slim is everything I wanted in a next-gen console, now in a smaller, more stylish design. It runs super quietly and loads games incredibly fast thanks to the SSD. The graphics are amazing — smooth gameplay with stunning detail, especially on a 4K TV. I love the DualSense controller too — the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers make games feel more immersive. If you’re looking for a compact and powerful gaming console, the PS5 Slim is a great choice. Totally worth it

I have had the consul for several months now and it is by far the best gameplay ever! It doesn’t overheat like other consoles have in the past, and the slim version is easier to store. they have even upgraded the controllers, with the sound effects and vibrations, it makes the game play 10 times better z
