    A smaller size might be at a cost.

    This system is smaller than the original which makes it easier to transport. It also does have about 160gigabytes more memory. I am a bit worried because I'm having some issues with the internet connection... I keep getting booted off of the Playstation network. I think I have fixed the problem by using an ethernet connection. Also the fan is getting really loud when playing a game too. If you are able get the OG Playstation instead of this one.

    PlayStation! I had a PlayStation one, PlayStation two, PlayStation 4, PlayStation five is amazing! Love the slim console, the high storage capacity, wish you would come with two controllers! I love the PlayStation platform and the games I have had many other consoles as well! Referred the slim to my son and he loves his as well! Loves to stream and play with friends across the country!

    We were skeptic about purchasing because we've never utilized the convenience of having it shipped to a store without hassles however the transaction was smooth! We ordered and was able to have it shipped to the THE SAME DAY... not to mention ON CHRISTAMAS EVE...THANKS A MILLION BEST BUY...hands down you are the BEST!

    Great product, i have been a Playstation guy my whole life - started with the original (not the one) and was very excited for the PS5 to get to a reasonable price point. Great product and very sleek looking

    I purchased the PlayStation 5 as a surprise “just because I love you” gift for my husband. He was so happy to get it. He had had the PlayStation 4 since it came out and he basically play sport games on it. He loved the graphics when he watched my son play 2024 The Show baseball game on his PlayStation 5 so I decided to get him one. He is really happy with everything the system can do. The only thing I didn’t like was when Beat Buy shipped the game system they did not package it in a box. Thank God I was at home to receive it because the UPS driver also said that he couldn’t believe Best Buy didn’t put the system in a shipping box.

    Sony is really taking and holding the lead in the console wars. I bought a PS5 for my son, and one for my fiancé and myself. Both work pretty much exactly as expected. My only issue is not as much a problem with the device, but the fact that to play a lot of game you really need PSN, and PSN has gotten insanely expensive, especially when you have to buy two, Oh, and do yourself a favor and add the PS VR5 headset and have a blast transporting yourself to new worlds!

    Picked up my PS5 at Best Buy, and I couldn't be happier! The staff was incredibly friendly and guided me through the options, making the buying experience a breeze. The console itself is a game-changer—stunning graphics and lightning-fast load times have completely transformed my gaming sessions!

    I had the original PS5, and I can say this is lighter and more convenient and cheaper then the original, would definitely recommend getting this over the regular PS5

    I have had xbox all my life, but when upgrading, I wanted something that wasn’t just going to give me better graphics (The xbox one X) so I went with the PS5 and I am beyond happy with it. the graphics are amazing even on my Tv that isn’t 4k. The FPS is great as well. the exclusives are pretty good , though there aren’t many out for it yet. I just bought suicide squad , so i’m very excited to try it out! spider man is also a great title for this system. the one thing I would say is definitely buy an SSD for extra storage as the storage runs out quickly and you aren’t able to use an external hardrive (a downside for me because with xbox you’re able to)

    I have the original OG Playstation 5. I am super pleased with this new slmi design. Less bulky, and much more lean. It comes with 2 plastic tabs to keep the horizontal look, and its sits pretty good.

    Great console, no issues at all. Fast speed when gaming, meaning games run smooth. Quiet, I like how it's much smaller and can be displayed nicely.

    It works perfectly is it amazing console The game is awesome I have no problems with it I l Love the layout of the interface the controller feels amazing and I enjoy the features that the controller has like the touch sensitivity and sound there's so many good things I can say about this console and I can say it's a good console because at this time I own a Xbox and gaming PC and Nintendo switch and the PlayStation 5 is somewhat on par with my gaming PC so I highly recommend getting a PlayStation 5

    I like the new look of the PS5 now you could actually fit it in smaller places and you don’t have to worry about it not fitting into other places light into TV stands that have cabinets and stuff and I like how you can actually replace the hard drive on it if something happened to the hard drive and I also like how it has one terabyte of storage so that means you can store a little bit more games on it and it still has the M2 drive bay before you could add more storage to it even though you have one terabyte of storage on it already you have best of both worlds and you also can move your PS5 around without the stand coming from up under it. That is a plus for it too.
