Customer Ratings & Reviews

First, I appreciate the lower price of the digital edition. Sure there are downsides to not being able to use a disc however kids don't respect the disc anyway. If this were mine alone (if I enjoyed gaming) then the disc option is nice for sell/buy/trade. Second, I can't speak much for performance myself, but my teen loves it. Graphics look amazing to me! Third, my son isn't very techie for a teen so I have to do the work of setting things up. It was just as much of a pain as the PS4. Mostly my 45yo brain trying to remember (and be calm). It is important to go through and be sure things are truly locked down from our younger child. Fourth, online purchase and pick up from Best Buy is always a good experience.

I already owned an Xbox Series X and wanted the best of both worlds so I finally bought this PS5 Slim and I am absolutely loving it. It runs very smooth and I can now play all of the amazing Sony exclusive games like Ghost of Tsushima and Helldivers 2, which is the main reason for my purchase. Console is quiet and it looks cool. The only downside is the Dual Sense Controller has a very short battery life compared to what I'm used to (Xbox Elite mk2 controller with a ridiculously long battery life). Despite that, 10 out of 10 from me.

The PS5 Slim is a refined version of Sony’s powerhouse console, offering the same next-gen gaming experience in a more compact and streamlined design. While it doesn’t introduce drastic performance changes, the added storage is a game-changer for players who constantly juggle between large game files. The PS5 Slim trims down the bulky original design, making it a better fit for smaller entertainment setups. Despite the smaller frame, it still packs the same impressive power, delivering fast load times, smooth gameplay, and stunning visuals thanks to the ultra-high-speed SSD and ray tracing capabilities.

Far superior console than others, I have the competitors and the speed and graphics are a lot better

I had the original PlayStation 5 and while the performance is identical, it's great to have the form factor of this one. It seems quieter, much smaller and lighter. Overall, great purchase. Good games, awesome controllers.

You can tell the difference from ps4-PS5.. it loads faster and what not. I do think memory at 1T is maybe not enough if you’re full digital like me. I will be purchasing more memory in the once I can’t save.

definitely worth the price. Gameplay is so smooth and the fans are so much softer than older consoles (in my opinion). I just wish the stand was sold together with the console rather than seperately but this is a great console regardless.

Just got this! The PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition in white offers a sleek design, powerful performance, and a vast digital library. With its compact size and digital-only focus, it's perfect for gamers like me that prefer a streamlined experience without sacrificing quality."

I recently purchased the PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition from Best Buy, and I’m absolutely thrilled with my experience. The console has a sleek, modern look that fits perfectly into my setup. Despite being a slimmer version, it still packs the incredible power and speed that the PS5 is known for, with smooth 4K graphics and quick loading times that make every game feel immersive. The setup was straightforward, and the digital-only format is surprisingly convenient. I don’t miss having a disc drive, as the console’s storage and online access have covered all my gaming needs. Best Buy’s purchase and delivery process was quick and seamless, making the whole experience hassle-free. Highly recommend this console for anyone looking to upgrade or dive into the next-gen gaming world!

I absolutely love this product! The performance is smooth, fast, and reliable. Everything works exactly as expected, and the quality really stands out. Setup was simple, and I noticed a big difference right away compared to older models. It’s definitely worth the investment if you’re looking for something dependable and high-performing. I would highly recommend it to anyone thinking about buying!

Picked up the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition from the Durham store after ordering online. The process was smooth and the console works flawlessly. Fast load times, quiet operation, and great performance overall. Perfect upgrade for anyone moving to next-gen gaming.

Im impressed with how fast games load. Kids are loving it. Always mentioning how pretty the games look.

The PS5 Slim is a fantastic upgrade. Its sleek, compact design fits perfectly in my setup, and the 1TB storage is a major plus. Setup was seamless, and the performance is lightning-fast. Highly recommend buying from Best Buy!

The PlayStation 5 delivers everything I could have hoped for in a next-gen console and more. From lightning-fast load times to stunning graphics, it’s a major leap forward in both performance and immersion. Right out of the box, the design is sleek and futuristic, and while it’s larger than previous consoles, it feels like a statement piece. The setup was quick and painless, and the new user interface is clean, intuitive, and much more responsive than the PS4's.

The PS5 has been awesome so far. Games load super fast, the graphics look amazing, and the DualSense controller actually makes a big difference. Everything just feels smooth and easy to use. Definitely worth it if you’re thinking about upgrading.

The PlayStation 5 is a powerful and fast console that delivers smooth gameplay, super nices graphics, and almost instant load times, I love that part! But overall it offers an excellent gaming experience that feels truly next-generation.

Works great, loads fast. Loads of games to play. Great way to play with friends and family.

The PS5 runs games so smoothly and fast. They open and load so quick and in 4K. Truly amazing.

Works great, runs extremely quiet, I do wish it included a better stand rather than the cheap ones they provide, however, at least they provide something, inital setup of the console was super quick and easy. Quality of the PS5 is really good. The one thing I would recommend to anyone considering buying a ps5 slim without the disc drive is to buy the version that has the disc drive. Because the price is actually more expensive to add it later. However, if you were like me, I dont mind buying the disc drive at a later date. Especially since most of my games I own for the ps5 are digital. That way when I decide I do want the disc drive I can simply buy it.

If you wanted to build a pc tower that could play high level games at 4k and 120fps you’d be staring $1000 in the face. This thing is basically a tower pc at the fraction of the price. I like the size and portability of the slim edition. I don’t miss the disc drive, I have plenty of space for game and if I want I can easily add another 2 tb of storage, has a slot already there for it. My only grip is that it no longer comes with the vertical stand. The original version came with it, now we have too spend an extra $30 bucks for it. Sony should’ve found a way to include it in the original packaging for the slim. Even if that meant raising it’s price by $20.
