    bought this to replace an original model that i had to sell. very nice to include a full 1TB instead of the original 825gb. the additional usb c port and dedicated disk eject button next to the disk drive (less confusing that the original with the power and eject buttons right next to each other) were very nice changes. runs very well and the slimmer form is less of an eye sore. im very satisfied with my purchase.

    Already had one PS5, but had to get another one to prevent the kids from fighting over who was able to play, so picked up the new PS5 slim with the disc drive. Love the new smaller design and the way it was revised with slightly different finishes and looks than the original. Super fast to setup and has been working perfectly since we got it. Not much else to say as it’s a great system and the best system that Sony has made to date as far as I’m concerned. Definitely recommend!

    Best console ever

    The PS5 isn’t just a console, it’s pure magic. The DualSense controller makes every game feel real—triggers fight back, vibrations change with every action, and it pulls you right into the world. Add in 4K graphics, instant load times, and exclusives like Spider-Man 2 and God of War Ragnarök, and you’ve got a system that never disappoints. It’s fast, powerful, and honestly the most fun I’ve ever had gaming. The PS5 turns every play session into an experience you don’t forget.

    A Next-Gen Console That Truly Delivers

    The PlayStation 5 is a total game-changer. I bought mine from Best Buy, and from the moment I unboxed it, I knew this was a major step forward in gaming. The console runs ultra-fast with almost no load times thanks to the SSD. Graphics are stunning, and games like NBA 2K25 and Spider-Man 2 look and feel incredibly lifelike. The DualSense controller adds a whole new layer of immersion with its adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. Whether I’m racing, fighting, or exploring, I feel more connected to the game than ever. The UI is clean and easy to navigate, and the performance is super stable. If you’re looking for the ultimate gaming experience, the PS5 is worth every penny. ✅ Yes, I recommend this product.

    Was hesitant to buy this but was totally worth it. The new controller is the best controller I’ve ever had, and the haptic feedback is really immersive. The load times on the PS5 slim are also very impressive, and so are the graphics. I was playing RDR2 and it was absolutely beautiful, it was somehow better looking than when i play on my PC, which has a RTX 3050. I also am a fan of the casing, which is just my personal opinion, looks a lot better in person than shown in the image above. The only problem i had is during set up, when it was updating the controller firmware, it got stuck on a loading screen, but i managed to fix it by shutting off the console then turning it back on, but overall i highly recommend getting this console

    As expected playstation elevates gameplay w immersive and intuitive controls and spectacular visuals on even a 83” screen. Now in a smaller footprint. Be sure to use proper HDMI cables and set up your tv and tune playstation settings/video outputs to maximize your experience! If you have a 4k TV, plug-and-play settings do not do the system its full justice. Play around with the video settings til its just right for your gameplay and equipment.

    Love the sleek design of the slim. So impressed with the downloading speed. Never did I imagine I could fit so many games in my console 1 TB of memory is a godsend. Thank you to all that made it possible and just when I thought it couldn’t get any better BEST BUY out does them selfs with Geeks Squad’s extended warranty it allowed me to feel confident of my purchase. Best Buy priced everything so affordable it was well worth the buy

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — The Best Console Experience Yet

    What I love: • Super fast loading times thanks to the built-in SSD. You jump into games in seconds. • DualSense controller is a game-changer — the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers make every game feel more immersive. • Graphics are stunning — 4K gaming is smooth, and the detail is impressive, especially in exclusives like Spider-Man: Miles Morales or Demon’s Souls. • Quiet operation — even during heavy gameplay, the console runs almost silently. • Backward compatibility with PS4 games is a huge plus. Minor tips: • Storage fills up fast, so consider expanding with an additional SSD. • Still a bit large in size, so make sure you have space in your setup.

    My daughter is handicapped and her favorite thing to do is playing PlayStation. She’s had every one of the PlayStation systems and has wanted the 5 system for a long time and we finally got it for her recently. She loves her new game and it’s a great way to entertain herself. Her nephews are gamers too and they have helped her reach levels she was having trouble reaching. It’s a win all around!

    Works much better with ethernet- highly recommend purchasing with AND get the Geek Squad Warranty. It's absolutely worth it. The console only comes with a 1 yr manufacture warranty but it doesn't cover accidents. Trust me, they cover everything.

    My PS5 is what I had hoped it would be. It arrived in a timely manner and was easy to set up. I enjoy the feel of the controller in my hand. I also appreciate its overall futuristic aesthetic. While I haven't gotten a chance to do much gaming, I am looking forward to seeing how it's improved on the previous generation of PlayStation.

    Wow! PS5 is amazing. My husband died 2 yrs ago and was unable to get the PS5. It was just so sold out everywhere. This year on his heaven-anniversary - I asked what I could do to celebrate his life in this coming year, and I heard him say what about that PS5? And so, I went to best buy and had such a great experience. I got the PS5 and a video game and now I’m playing it, living out his desire he couldn’t have. I love it. It’s so fun and makes me feel connected. Thank you for this. I’m proud to be a gamer!
