    The PlayStation never worked, it was a gift for my son’s girlfriend at college so it took a couple of weeks to get it back. I explained this to BestBuy support and they said I could return it with an authorization number they provided. When I got to BestBuy they said it was a number associated with a credit account. I didn’t have this account with them and the only communication I had with them was in regards to the PlayStation. I have screenshots showing the number but they don’t care. They even agreed to help in writing but never followed through. I spent weeks trying to get someone to help me but I just got the run around. ZERO response, no customer service. We had the PlayStation looked at, paid $80 and were told it was a bad GPU. On an item advertised as “excellent like new”. Stay away!

    I recently picked up the PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition, and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase. Right out of the box, the slimmer design is a huge win. Much more manageable for my setup and way sleeker looking than the original. It fits perfectly in my entertainment center without taking up too much space. Performance wise it’s just as powerful as the standard PS5. Games like Spiderman and Marvel Rivals run buttery smooth with fast loading times and gorgeous visuals. The lack of a disc drive hasn’t bothered me at all since I mostly buy my games digitally anyway. Setup was super easy, and transferring data from my old PS4 was seamless. The DualSense controller still feels amazing with all the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers—definitely a game changer. If you’re like me and prefer a smaller console with no need for physical discs, the PS5 Slim Digital Edition is absolutely the way to go. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to upgrade their gaming experience!

    I turned on the playstation and got it all set up to play and, in the hour that it took to set it up, there was an audible pop from the system and it would not turn back on. I am retuening to Best Buy today for a replacement. Hopefully I will have better luck with that one.

    The PlayStation 5 is a remarkable leap forward in gaming technology, offering a truly next-gen experience that delivers on every front. From its sleek design to its impressive performance, the PS5 redefines what we can expect from a modern console. Design & Build Quality The PS5's design is bold and futuristic, standing out with its distinctive white and black color scheme complemented by blue LED accents. While its size is considerably larger than its predecessors, it’s a testament to the advanced cooling system and powerful hardware inside. The build quality is premium, and the console feels sturdy and well-engineered. Performance & Speed The PS5 is a powerhouse. The new custom SSD dramatically reduces load times, making it feel like you’re instantly immersed in the game world. The system’s processing power allows for stunning visuals with 4K resolution at up to 120Hz, along with ray tracing for lifelike lighting and reflections. Whether you're playing fast-paced action games or more visually demanding titles, the PS5’s performance remains smooth and fluid throughout. DualSense Controller The standout feature of the PS5 is undoubtedly the DualSense controller. Sony has completely revamped the gaming experience with advanced haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, making every game feel more immersive. The subtle vibrations and resistance in the triggers add a tactile layer that truly enhances gameplay, whether you’re feeling the tension of a bowstring or the rumble of a car engine. It’s a game-changer that adds a new dimension to interactive play. Game Library & Backward Compatibility The PS5’s library of exclusive titles is already impressive, with standout games like Demon's Souls, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and Returnal. Backward compatibility with PS4 games means that you won’t have to leave your old favorites behind, and the added performance boost on PS5 makes them look and play better than ever. Plus, with the PlayStation Plus Collection, you gain access to a curated list of some of the best PS4 titles, further sweetening the deal. User Interface & Features Navigating the PS5 is a smooth experience thanks to the updated user interface, which is sleek, responsive, and intuitive. The new Control Center provides easy access to essential features without interrupting gameplay, making it simpler than ever to check messages, manage downloads, or adjust settings. The console also supports 3D audio, which, when paired with compatible headphones, offers an immersive sound experience that enhances the gameplay. The PlayStation 5 is an absolute triumph. It brings incredible performance, innovative features, and a growing library of must-play games, making it one of the best gaming consoles on the market today. Whether you're a long-time PlayStation fan or new to the brand, the PS5 offers a truly next-gen gaming experience that is well worth the investment

    First off, the PS5 Slim looks clean. It’s slimmer, sleeker, but still packs the same beastly performance under the hood. Lightning-fast load times, stunning 4K graphics, and buttery-smooth gameplay — it's everything PlayStation fans expect, just sharper and more compact. This bundle takes it even further with the exclusive Fortnite Cobalt Star Pack — dropping bonus skins, V-Bucks, and extra style straight into your hands. Whether you’re a casual player or grinding ranked, you’re stepping into Fortnite like a true champion. Setup is crazy simple. No discs, no hassle — pure digital convenience. It’s the perfect future-proof system for gamers who want everything faster, cleaner, and smoother. Pros: Sleek new Slim design — lighter, thinner, same wild power Insane load speeds with the ultra-fast SSD Fortnite Cobalt Star bonus gear and V-Bucks included Perfect for digital-only gamers — no clutter, no discs Sony once again flexes why they’re the kings of console gaming Cons: Smaller internal storage than disc version (expandable though) Fortnite not your thing? You still get the PS5 magic Bottom Line: Sony absolutely nailed it again. The PS5 Slim Digital Fortnite Cobalt Star Bundle isn’t just a console — it’s an invitation to greatness. Whether you’re dropping in Fortnite, swinging through Spider-Man 2, or battling in Helldivers II, this machine is built to dominate.
