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).

    My boys had a PlayStation a long time ago and ended up with an Xbox which was so confusing. This PlayStation makes it so easy to set up and use and we are sticking to PlayStation from now one. We got the one where you don’t need the disks and it has been the best choice!
