    Incredibly bulky. Yes, even though it says slim, it takes up a lot of space. Set up is a pain. Not intuitive at all. But my kiddo wanted to play Astrobot and waited patiently for 6 months for it, so we purchased it. Set up was a pain, did I already say that? Yeah that’s how annoying it was for a new user (my PS3 acct didn’t work anymore!!). Also, very unclear on how to keep kids safe while playing online with friends only (with the Nintendo switch, this is far easier to navigate). Very few game options for little gamers. If it weren’t for Astrobot I wouldn’t have purchased it but here we are. Would I recommend it? Not unless you really want a Sony exclusive game. Sonic graphics are much better on this system though, I’ll say that.

    One of the best purchases I have made for a console. Absolutely loving the PS5. The employees are extremely helpful and very informative. I really appreciate the fact that when an employee does not know the information, they ask their peers and actually try to find the answers!

    This has to be the best gaming system out there. I have a Nintendo Switch OLED which is great for portable gaming but the PlayStation 5 is a much better gaming experience. Best gaming = PS5, kids/portable gaming = Switch.

    Performance is on point, no complaints! The PS5 has been great and has helped me overcome difficult times. I have been able to play with friends, explore new games, and replay older ps4 games from my library.

    It delivers blistering load-times, jaw-dropping visuals and a next-gen controller experience though its digital service still trails rivals

    I absolutely love this item!! Works extremely well! We play the game almost daily!!! I was extremely happy to see that the game “SpongeBob cosmic shake” was still made til this day. This game was my all time favorite game since I was a kid when we had an older version PS and it’s amazing to have it again. So to say the least I am very very happy for this purchase.

    Even if you are not familiar with any PlayStation system, you will not have a problem setting this one up. Everything is included that you will need. There are onscreen and print options for all instructions. The graphics are the best around, period! Even older model games look good.

    This was a gift for my son. He had been asking for a new system to play online with his friends. A lot of research went into this between the PS5 and the Xbox series X. Ultimately I went with the PS5.
