    Bought this for a brother in law! He’s a gamer and the last console he had was the PS2. He’s static to have the PS5. Speed and graphics are amazing!

    I just upgraded from a PS4 and am pairing it with the 75" TV I purchased last Black Friday. The picture is outstanding. I watched Youtube videos on how to set it up but in reality it was very simple. Transferring the saved data from the PS4 took about 45 minutes using an ethernet cable but, you can also transfer data wirelessly. It will take much longer, though. I also noticed my games boot up MUCH quicker, less than half the time, than on the PS4. Another plus is that the PS5 is backwards compatible with my PS4 games.

    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.

    It runs really smoothly. Don't have any problems with it and works like new essentially :) Love the fact that it's also slim so it doesn't take much space at all.

    I have bought 7 of these PS5 s for all my grandchildren and haven’t had a single complaint yet. They all play against each other online, especially on Thursday aka wipe night. The only thing I have to complain about is they did away with the yearly membership cards I used to get all of them for stocking stuffers. I bought this one for my grandson’s fiancé . I have bought these PlayStation since my 31year old was little,inother words I have bought at least one PS1, PS2,PS3,PS4 and seven PS5s.q

    bought this to replace an original model that i had to sell. very nice to include a full 1TB instead of the original 825gb. the additional usb c port and dedicated disk eject button next to the disk drive (less confusing that the original with the power and eject buttons right next to each other) were very nice changes. runs very well and the slimmer form is less of an eye sore. im very satisfied with my purchase.
