    It's everything I expected it to be and more! It's significantly smaller than the original so it saves so much space while still maintaining the quick and great looking gaming experience. I would recommend this to any person looking to upgrade their existing console or to buy it as a gift for someone else.

    Great system, easy to use and the graphics are phenomenal. Lived up to all of the reviews I read before buying. I personally bought the used version that was Geek Squad certified as Excellent condition. It was in near perfect condition only having one small scratch on the controller. Super easy to set up as well.

    Got myself one after my ps4 started having issues, bought the digital edition just to save a few buck in a pinch and I plan to get the disc drive addon later. Works very well, no issues whatsoever with the console. I do wish the stand it comes with was a little more sturdy, but that's not a huge deal to be honest.

    I love my ps5. When I bought it, I didn't realize that I did not get the one that had the disc and I thought that it would be somewhat of an issue for me but it's not. Due to the memory size on it, I don't have to worry about not having enough.

    PS5 Slim Digital The ps5 slim digital is a console that was first announced in november, 2023. Overall, the ps5 slim digital is a great console for those who do not need a disc drive, and could use the extra storage. I got the ps5 in perfect condition, as it lists, and the price was $399 when i bought it, making Best Buy a great retailer. If shelf space is something you dont have much to spare, consider getting the PS5 slim digital console from Best Buy. You may see other retailers selling any type of ps5 for either the same price of Best Buy, or higher. The reason why you should choose Best Buy over similar retailers is because of their specialty in electronics, and their fast and efficient workers. Overall, I would have to give the experience with best buy a 9.5/10 due to their price match and easy pickup options.

    The PS5 is a really nice console and the only one i would buy if you dont own a PC. Honeslty even if yoi do own a PC the PS5 slim is workth getting cuz of sonys exclusives. Also i quite like the PS now or what ever they call the premium service where you get a few free games monthly and have access to all their premium titles to play and download with the monthly subscription. Look the Xbox every singe game is on PC now so it just doesn’t make sense to buy them when you can get PCs so cheap now and the switch is so out dated. But anyway I really think the PS5 slim is cool with the fact that you can customize the panels and also add pr remove the disc drive as needed or if upu buy a digital version and want a disc drive later on. I wish more companies would add things like that to theirs. Also the cheaper digital PS5 is identical to the PS5 higher model where the Xbox series S is not as powerful as the Series X

    Great system, I told myself I’d never give up on my Xbox until I played ps5 at a friends. Now I’m selling the Xbox! Definitely needed more storage so I purchased a wd-black 1tb to add internally.

    I recently purchased this device, and overall, I’m very impressed with its performance. The design feels modern and well-built, and it’s lightweight enough to use or carry around without any inconvenience. Setup was simple and straightforward, even for someone who isn’t extremely tech-savvy.

    Traded in the PS4 for this thanks to the online offer. Would recommend spending the extra money to get the disc option and extra memory, but this is a huge upgrade compared to the PS4. Games look amazing!
