    The PS5 is an incredible console. Best Buy's purchasing process was smooth, and delivery was fast. The performance is amazing, with lightning-fast load times and stunning graphics. The DualSense controller's haptic feedback makes every game more immersive. An outstanding purchase!

    I normally do not do reviews, however I think the PlayStation 5 slim was a great purchase. The familiarity with the ps4 makes it easy to get started and one thing that is really nice is that all of your ps4 games work on the ps5. The only reasons that I gave a 4 star rather than a 5 is that it’s a bit on the pricier side given that the only difference from the original ps5 is 500 GBs of more storage.

    Upgraded from a PS4 my positives and negatives

    I love my new PS5 it's such an upgrade! It's so much faster than my PS4! It's a lot brighter too. The only things that I don't like is the storage space. It's good that this has the disc drive included so that helps take up less storage space. But the digital games take up a lot of space. Especially if you want to keep your game progress and saves. I like to play a game and sometimes switch to another game for a little while or have other games only when friends come over. I wouldn't like to have to only play a few games and have this loaded on the console. I had 32 games some disc versions and coming from my PS4 1TB and all of my games were saved to it to the PS5 1TB now I have less space and can't fit every game. So I had to make another purchase and get an M.2 drive so I can have all of my games downloaded at once and keep my saves in the games. So plan on making another purchase if you don't want to download and delete games. My last gripe is I had to get used to the new layout of how to get to the Home Screen and settings I learned pretty fast it was just an adjustment. It's nice to be able to adjust the sounds of the beep and controller. Also the brightness of the controller, console and the low power mode settings can be adjusted to update the system, games and charge the controllers and of that doesn't need to be done or will go in a super low energy mode. It goes from low power mode to on very quickly and you can turn it on from the PlayStation app too. I'm glad I can still play all of my PS4 games and some came with free PS5 versions.

    Xbox360 -> PS5

    I upgraded from an Xbox360 to a PS5. Yes, HUGE difference! Before I made a purchase like this I did a lot of research and found out that when comparing the PS5 to the newest Xbox PS5 had the Xbox beat. And after watching some review videos I came to the conclusion that the PS5 would probably be the best fit for me. And it is, I really only play COD on the system but I have no complaints. There is no lagging, realistic graphics, and so many different options of games available to play online with friends

    I recently purchased the PlayStation 5 Slim from Best Buy and I’m extremely satisfied with my purchase. The console is noticeably slimmer and lighter than the original PS5, making it much easier to fit into my setup without sacrificing performance. Load times are incredibly fast, gameplay is smooth, and the graphics are absolutely stunning. Best Buy’s pickup process was quick and hassle-free, and the console arrived in perfect condition. Overall, this is a fantastic upgrade and well worth the money for any PlayStation fan.

    Picked up my new PS5 through Best Buy’s curbside service, and everything was quick and hassle-free. The staff was super friendly and had my order ready right on time. The console itself is absolutely amazing — fast, powerful, and the graphics are next level. Setup was simple, and I was gaming in no time. Couldn’t be happier with both the PS5 and the smooth pickup experience. Highly recommend!

    Works much better with ethernet- highly recommend purchasing with AND get the Geek Squad Warranty. It's absolutely worth it. The console only comes with a 1 yr manufacture warranty but it doesn't cover accidents. Trust me, they cover everything.
