Customers are saying

Customers commend the product's top-notch overall performance, excellent graphics, and fantastic load speeds, often highlighting its convenient size, quiet operation, and overall quality as a console, noting its good value for the price. However, some users express concerns regarding the storage capacity, the disc drive being sold separately, and the battery life, while others mention that it does not come with a stand; despite being listed as a potential concern, many customers report not experiencing any overheating issues.

    Sweet console but it keeps getting disconnected from the tv. Is a 4k under with game mode and doesn’t matter if game mode is on or off. Eventually tv says “disconnected” “check connections”. Console is very hot. Going to put a fan on it and see if that helps.

    The ps5 is an amazing game console for casual gamers. The only problem I have is that this isn’t enough games to play

    Crazy annoying UI - I feel stupid trying to navigate this product... Unfortunately returned this after about a week of use. I'm not a fan of the design of the hardware, but thought it would be fun to play Forza as it was recently made available on the PS5. The game was filled with micro transactions that made the game so annoying to play. I'm sure PS5 is super fun for people who game all the time, but it was not easy to use or fun for someone who only casually uses it.

    A great console. My biggest gripe is that I wish Sony would allow backwards compatibility with all previous systems with disc support. Highly recommend nonetheless.

    Works great, downloads fast, and smooth game play. Game storage could be improved, controllers don’t last that long. They get stuck after a while. For how expensive these controllers are my old PlayStation 1, 2 and 3 controllers never had to be replaced and they were WAYYYYY cheaper….

    Its a ps5 digital. Does what you expect it to do. The slightly increased storage is nice but the extra $50 halfway thru the ps5's life is not cool.

    Its a solid console, but the huge and awkward shape makes it not really good as a console, as its kinda hard to put things around it.

    The system is great but the HDMI cable that came with it does not work. I had to use one of my own HDMI cables so I could play the game.
