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.

    Completely satisfied with my purchase. However, I should’ve gotten the disc version so I could play physical discs since they go on sale often

    Coming from an Xbox Series X, this is a completely different experience. The controller has to be the best i’ve ever used, the haptics aren’t just rumbles that happen every now and again when there’s an explosion. They direct sound and immerse you in a level I haven’t experienced. The microphone, speakers, touchpad, and adaptive triggers all in one package is truly impressive. The original play and look amazing on OLED screens and price to performance couldn’t be better. Does get a bit louder with fan noise than the Xbox, but can be greatly minimized by putting it to your right.

    I got it for my dad… for a reason.. he lost the roku remote again and lets just say he refuses to buy a new one so now he watches his Netflix on the PlayStation and he has not complained not once about it. He also has not lost the remote :)

    Bought this for my son to replace the PS4 he gave to my youngest. It runs great. The stand is not included with the slim, it is sold separate, that is the only negative.

    First, I want to say Best Buy delivered this game pretty quickly I was surprised. But so far I love the console compared to the other ps5 disc versions. It makes everything so much easier.

    It is a better upgrade than the PS4 as well as somehow being better than the Pro which is only better by a bit. Was excited to get this during Black Friday and I was not disappointed. It feels way better to play this and my ER loading times went through the roof...or I guess under since it loaded faster...BUT ANYWAYS I have been waiting to get this since it came out and I finally did. If you got a PS4 and can afford this then I would recommend it.

    Swift and easy, I always enjoy my time at bestbuy. Attentive staff that always handle your needs with care. As for the playstation, I feel that the console sells itself. The load times are fast and gaming in 4k (with the right monitor) is unbeatable. I don't yet see a need to upgrade to a PS5 pro since the regular PS5 handles all of my needs.
