    I bought/pre-ordered the ps5 when it was released, we used it allot for i think 3 yrs and then the disc reading laser crapped out. We've had this happen with both the ps3 and ps4 models that's why we bought a separate sony bluray player to watch movies on because we also watch allot of movies and TV series on bluray and dvd, we thought that was putting a strain on the laser. But they all eventually crapped out. I owned 2 different ps3s and 4 different ps4s over the years cuz they just die if you play games all the time. The ps5 is a superb machine, this is the second I've owned and i loved it since the beginning. The controllers are great totally designed great for holding and playing long amounts of time. It does get a little hot so you have to regularly Clean the dust out of the fans/ vents so it doesn't get too hot.

    The ps5 slim edition runs just as smooth and great as the ps5. The graphics are amazing and game play is so smooth. Will be buying my son one for Christmas so we can play together.

    In a month and a half I have had no issues with my PS5. It comes with everything you need (power supply, controller, controller charging cable, and HDMI cable). The only thing it didn't come with was a game but I figure I missed the bundle window. I'm sure it will come again during a holiday. The PS5 itself has great graphics, is pretty quiet for the most part, and yeah. It's awesome. It's a PS5. I like the slightly slimmer model too.

    Good birthday gift

    I bought the PlayStation 5 last year as a birthday gift for my little brother, and it was hands-down the best decision I could have made. From the moment he unwrapped it, his excitement was through the roof, and it hasn’t faded since. The console’s performance is incredible—lightning-fast load times, stunning 4K graphics, and a smooth, immersive gaming experience. The DualSense controller takes it to the next level with its haptic feedback and adaptive triggers that make every game feel so much more real. My brother loves how the PS5 has a vast selection of games, and he’s constantly discovering new features like media apps and seamless online play. It’s perfect for both solo gaming and connecting with friends. The design is sleek and futuristic, so it looks great in any setup. If you’re looking to make someone’s day (or year!), the PS5 is worth every penny. This console has brought so much joy to our household. Highly recommend!

    My husband has been wanting a ps5 for ages now and I finally broke down and bought it at Best Buy’s black fri sale. He is thrilled and it is a high tech, high performing game system.

    Performance is flawless—lightning-fast load times, gorgeous 4K graphics, and smooth gameplay. The added storage is a welcome touch, and all the best features are still here: DualSense controller, 3D audio, and backwards compatibility. It’s the same next-gen powerhouse, just in a smarter design. If you’ve been waiting to upgrade, the PS5 Slim is the perfect choice.

    PS5 Slim Console Disc addition

    I’ll be honest, I hesitated to jump into the PS5 ecosystem this late in the game, especially with the "Pro" model and PS6 rumors swirling around. But after snagging the Slim during a Best Buy sale, I get the hype. It doesn’t feel like "old" hardware at all—it feels like a platform that has finally hit its stride.
