    Much faster than the PS4 and the graphics are amazing. The Fortnite bundle was a nice plus. Controller is nicer than the PS4 model as well.

    I am very pleased with the product so far. While shipping was delayed, the package arrived in perfect condition. I am most grateful for the discounted price I received due to my prompt order. The speed of loading, graphics, and variety of games have been most welcome. I look forward to future purchases. The DualShock controller has provided such an immersive experience, especially while playing Astro Bot, which particularly showcased the controller's capabilities.

    Ps5 Review

    Ive had the playstation 5 for a month now. The graphics are the best ive ever seen and the games run smooth. The only thing i dont like is playstation charges a monthly fee to play online. I bought the game Helldivers 2 and i couldnt even run the game without signing up for the subscription. Overall im happy with the console and will keep it. If you buy the disc version you will not only save yourself money but if you beat the game tou can resell to get money back. To me thats the way to go

    Absolutely thrilled with my PlayStation 5 from Best Buy! The console is incredible—fast, powerful, and stunning graphics. The online purchase was super easy, and delivery was impressively quick. Highly recommend both the PS5 and Best Buy for a smooth, hassle-free shopping experience!

    My husband owned the PS3 for years and out of the blue it stopped working. He’s not a huge gamer by any means but it’s something he enjoys in his free time. After not playing his PS3 in a couple years, I decided to buy him (us) the PS5 as I’ve heard the picture quality is outstanding and it’s so realistic. I bought him a bunch of games, the console, controllers, etc. He was so ecstatic that some games have a colorblind feature (something his old console didn’t do). He really enjoys this new consoles and all the games so far; his favorite the Last Part of Us 1 & 2. The only thing we noticed is the storage fills up significantly fast so I’ll have to buy a separate storage thing for this.

    I'm started playing again and decided to buy the PS5. A lot different from the game systems I'm use to. I'm old school. I have had it for over a couple of weeks now and been having a lot of fun. My kids can even join me on the game from their house. It took me a bit to figure out how to set everything up but after that I have had no problems.

    I got the slim ayear ago, and it is amazing at how fast it boots up and you're playing games. Love that i have been able to play my ps4 games on it, too. For current games, graphics look great, games are smooth, changing from one game to another is near seamless, almost as if you haven't changed from one to the other (unless you are swapping discs, of course). Since it is powerful it can warm up a bit, sp you do need to make sure it is in a well ventilated spot. I do wish it was a little smaller, but the size is fine.

    I’ve been really happy with my PlayStation 5. The system runs fast, the graphics look sharp, and games load almost instantly. What surprised me most is how smooth everything feels, from gameplay to switching between apps. The DualSense controller has been a standout for me too. The haptic feedback and adaptive triggers make a big difference, and some games feel completely different because of it. The console stays pretty quiet, even during long sessions. The game library keeps growing, and the newer titles really show off what the system can do. Overall, I feel like I got my money’s worth, and it’s been a great upgrade for my setup.

    Amazing Performance in a Sleek Package - Sony Play

    I’ve been using the Sony PlayStation 5 Slim for a few weeks now, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The console’s compact design is a huge plus, taking up much less space without sacrificing performance. It looks sleek and modern, fitting perfectly into my entertainment setup. The performance is incredible—games load in seconds, and the graphics are breathtaking. I’ve been blown away by the smooth gameplay, whether I’m playing action-packed titles or exploring expansive open worlds. The DualSense controller is a game-changer with its haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, providing a level of immersion that really adds to the experience. It’s also worth noting how quiet the PS5 Slim runs, even during long gaming sessions. I never have to worry about it overheating, and it stays cool and efficient. Overall, this is a top-tier gaming console that offers everything a gamer could want: performance, design, and value. Highly recommend it!

    I ordered the Sony PlayStation 5 Slim Console – Fortnite Cobalt Star Bundle for my son stationed in North Carolina with the military, and it was an absolute hit! The console arrived on time and in perfect condition. He told me the PS5 Slim runs super smooth, loads games incredibly fast, and the graphics are stunning. It’s been a great way for him to unwind after long days and stay connected with friends back home. I’m so happy I could send him something that brings a bit of fun and comfort while he’s serving. Highly recommend this console – both for the quality and the joy it brings!

    This game is really fun and has become a favorite in our home. My child absolutely loves playing it, and it keeps them entertained for long stretches. The controls are smooth, it runs great on the PS5, and the overall experience is very kid-friendly. One of the best parts is the game library interface — it’s neat, organized, and makes it easy to find exactly what you want to play. Definitely a solid choice for families and younger players.

    Bought the PS5 during last black Friday when it was finally went on sale. It also plays PS4 games and blue-ray DVDs. The games and play is awesome on the PS5. Somewhat upgrade specs from PS4, but for little more price, you get a lot more.

    First ever PlayStation, system itself is great! Not a fan of the controller with my hand being a little larger, making the controller a little awkward to hold. Prefer the beefier Xbox controller but a lot of my online friends went PC and PlayStation. Anyway great console.
