    Sony really did a good job with this one. The graphics, speed, the way the controller fells it just all works. This will be one of there staples for years to come

    Great console, amazing graphics and power. So great that these are finally readily available! Got a wonky controller so had to replace that, which was a bummer though.

    The controller is one of the best I’ve used. The console runs really quiet. The console is a lot bigger than I expected and I had to place it on top of my entertainment stand.

    Awesome new console. The hype for the PS5 was warranted. Graphics are amazing & new SSD allows games to load faster. New features are great except it is a bit heavy & tall.

    Hands down, the best console out right now. Which is why it's so hard to obtain one. So far I've had no issues with mine, fingers crossed, and have been loving it since launch. The controller innovation alone is not like anything I've experienced before. Definitely play Astros Playroom to understand. Even I was skeptical about their big push on the controller features, and I assure you that it's not just a gimmick. It will ultimately come down to how well developers utilize them in there end though. I have high hopes they will, it's just too good not to. You can however change the intensity of completely turn it off of it's not something you enjoy. So don't fret if that would possibly turn you away because you think it would ruin your competitive CoD play. I do have a TV capable of using the 120fps mode, and those games that offer that feel so smooth. Definitely recommend when play FPS games online. Other than that 4k 60 fps is what I stick to, unless I just want to gush over some ray tracing for a bit. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUT THE CONSOLE IN STANDBY MODE WHILE UPLOADING VIDEOS TO YOUR MESSAGES/YOUTUBE/TWITTER. A friend did that, and the console was stuck trying to put itself into standby mode. He did get the issue resolved, but just to be safe, don't do that. Those with PS4 should know what I'm talking about. Other than that, you should be fine. In my own opinion, this is by far the best PlayStation Sony had made. I would even dare say that it's the best out right now, seeing as it's going toe to toe and even outperforming in some areas. For a $500 console (or $400 if you want just Digital), it's running games at a high end PC level in the $1400-$2000 range. That's just impressive. It is by no means a perfect console, there are some things I do not like about it or the decisions they made. Such as how short the power cord is, which limited where I could put it on my entertainment center. With its size, it could be a problem for dinner people. Not my complaint, but it is some people's complaints. I wish the disk drive was a little quieter, but I do play with a headset, so I don't notice it while playing. But you will if you don't. It's not a constant loud nose, but it is for a few seconds here and there. Storage! But I understand why they went with that size, to help keep the price down. Also with as fast as it downloads and installs (dependant on your internet speed) it's not all that bad to remove games you're not playing at that time. But they should have been ready to have expanded storage ready. We're just wait on that. And PS5 games will not be stored on external HDD's or SSD's, so you can't just move them over. Which is another con I have, but it's not a big deal to me. PS4 games however can be stored externally and run off the external drive to save space for your PS5 games on the console. Not much to gripe about really for me, just nit-pick stuff. But I'm enjoying the console and loving the games. It's all about the games, that's what matters. And Sony is delivering.

    This machine is super fast yet very quiet. The new controller is revolutionary. I’ve owned every single playstation released since the 90s. This one truly feels ‘next-gen’.

    Was lucky enough to get a PS5 back in December 2020. Been playing it for a while and its such a noticeable difference over my launch day PS4. I took care of my PS4 so it was not that noisy, but the PS5 is much quieter. Sony's first party titles are the primary reason to pick one of these up and I'm super excited to be able to play them. I also game on PC with and RTX 3090, so it made more sense for me to buy a PS5 since now I'll have access to all of Sony's first party titles, as well as anything Xbox puts out on Gamepass through my PC.
