    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.

    I was going to purchase the PS5 Pro, but without a newer TV it didn't make sense for the pro as I wouldn't reap the extra benefits of it. This was a great deal with the Black Friday prices!

    Haven't owned a PlayStation since the PlayStation 2! I missed out on a lot of Sony exclusive games like God of War, Uncharted, and The Last of Us. With the PlayStation Plus subscription, I can finally enjoy all these games I have missed out on. I know I'm near the end of this generation of game consoles and new ones are one the way, but the PlayStation 5 is still a SOLID video game console.

    My bf had lent me his old PS4 console because HE got the PS5, and I used the PS4 for roughly about a good 1-2 years until I myself decided to get my own PS5 console. It's a huge upgrade and I'm so glad I bought it! The PS5 editions of games I had on the PS4 look INCREDIBLEEEE!! Everything looks so smooth and in high quality. Took a little bit of time to navigate where some stuff was like the notifications, parties, downloads, etc. but I figured it out! My only issue is the battery life of the controller when it's not being charged, and the provided USB-C cable for it didn't really let me be able to sit up against my bed's headboard where I have my pillows and such, BUT getting a much longer regular USB-C cable (10 ft) from Target did the trick! Easy fix!

    The PlayStation 5 (PS5) has emerged as a game-changer in the realm of console gaming, captivating players with its stunning design, awe-inspiring graphics, innovative technology, and exclusive titles. While it may not match the raw power of a gaming PC, the PS5's dedicated architecture and carefully optimized games take visual immersion to new heights, making it an irresistible choice for passionate gamers. The PS5's striking design is a testament to Sony's commitment to pushing the boundaries of console aesthetics. Its sleek, monolithic black-and-white exterior, combined with the curvaceous contours, creates a modern and futuristic look that is truly eye-catching. The console's sheer presence in any entertainment setup is enough to inspire awe and elevate the gaming experience to a whole new level.
