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.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    Not even a week in this PS5 randomly shuts off. Best Buy won’t help me return it. Not even my fault - ridiculous.

    Everyrhing was fine with it, even the moniter was good for the ps5. although the second day i turned it on, it kept freezing when i’d open a game it would freeze and shut the whole ps5 off. We tried the ps5 on another moniter and it did the same

    I bought my PlayStation 5 earlier this month, and it’s been a great upgrade so far. Games load incredibly fast, and everything just feels smoother compared to my old console. The controller felt weird at first, but now I really like it. It is pretty big, which makes setup a little awkward. Still, I’ve been using it almost every day and don’t regret buying it.

    So I bought the system and maybe used it every other day for 9 days for about an hour. Booted it up on day 9 get all the way to the main screen, then system turns completely off. Changed hdmi cables, changed tvs, cuanged the power source cord, changed tv settings and nothing worked. System will not turn on. This is the second time same issue.

    my package wasn’t delivered to me. i contacted customer service, they offered a refund or replacement, i chose the refund and figured i just go pick it up in person. it’s been 3 weeks and my refund has yet to be processed. i spoke with 5 different agents, they all keep saying “the last agent has processed the refund, please allow 24 hours”

    It arrived damaged. The console won’t turn on at all, and the packaging appeared to have been previously opened. I tried multiple outlets and cables to ensure it wasn’t an issue on my end, but the console shows no signs of power no lights or response whatsoever. Very disappointed

    Had it for two months. Hasn’t played a game yet and only used it for media. Two months and a week and the HDMI port failed. One week past warranty. I’m never buying garbage products made by Sony again. They can’t do anything right.

    It did not work and I was told to send it back and they would send out another one. I was sent the ups bar code to send it back. Got an email saying refund. Well, that was not what I was told. I was told I would be getting another game system
