    The digital model looks better than the disc one to me. Its quiet and the exclusive games are great. The dualsense is amazing. Sleek.

    Best system ever created, bar none. This system sets the standard, and is consistently sold out for a reason.

    A wonderful piece of equipment. I would suggest that you obtain an external HD for the games you plan to download. They occupy a good number of space.

    Great console with way better performance and no fighter jet noise coming from it like my PS4 PRO,it’s so so quiet with all graphical demanding games,I was lucky enough to get one here at Best Buy online app and love the system they set up for me to check out with ease,sort of like a digital ticket they send to my email and complete check out with calm, instead of fighting the horde of scalpers, I also used curbside pick up and choose the store that was closest to me which took about a week before it was ready for pick up

    Wow. Me personally I prefer consoles when it comes to gaming, and the PS5 did not disappoint. I recommend everyone that has the opportunity to purchase one to take the time to play Astro's Playroom, it shows you how the PS5 works and it features in a very entertaining way. Then make yourself a favor and install an M.2 SSD because PS5 games take a lot of space, and while you are at it plug in an external HDD so you can install and play all your digital PS4 games.

    Worth it in every possible way if you loved PS4

    No issues with the actual console (picked mine up without a hitch early on launch day) and no serious complaints whatsoever. Yes it is quite a large console, but I for one love the look of it; it’s the centerpiece of my home entertainment center. Load times are practically nonexistent, although they have slightly resurfaced with the PS4 version of Cyberpunk 2077, but that won’t be an issue once the free upgrade to next generation consoles is released. Anyway, the dualsense is truly a wonder—the actuators give the controller a phenomenal tactile feel (just play Astro’s Playroom, even just for a minute to get a sense of what the dual sense is capable of) that creates some mind blowing sensations (the controllers are updated frequently though, so if you use a sold separately charging station most of the time, make sure to plug the controller in to the front or back from time to time to update it when necessary). Last, and this is very important—PLEASE USE AN ETHERNET TO TRANSFER YOUR PS4 DATA/GAMES TO YOUR NEW PS5 AND TO REDOWNLOAD DIGITAL GAMES YOU HAVE OR STREAM FALLOUT NEW VEGAS ON PS NOW. I never used an Ethernet before until my ps5 told me it would take 22 hours to transfer 200 some gbs of data over my purportedly 300 mbps download speed internet. So I went to Best Buy and bought a 25’ CAT 6 maybe? or something Ethernet cord for like twenty some bucks and it’s completely changed how I interact with video games in a profound way bc now I can delete and redownload without worrying about it taking hours (PS: I still have rest mode completely disabled on my ps5. Never had an issue with it but it has caused problems for others and I don’t wanna tempt ol’ fate. Anyway, the PS4 transfer went from a 22 hour download to a 61 minute or so download after setting up a LAN connection with my wifi router. My mbps went from high 2’s and low 3’s mbps to a steady and consistent 200+. Although unlikely lol, I hope this answers even one single question that even one single person may be having. Hope everyone stays safe, and thank you Best Buy for letting me attempt to flex my withered writing muscles (moved on to the editing side; not easy to hack it as a writer!) Happy holidays y’all!

    So happy with this Playstation update. Is it absolutely necessary if you still have a PS4? I would say not yet, especially since you need an 8k TV to see it in full effect which isn’t really a thing yet as most people still have 4K. I am enjoying the new controller more than anything, love the haptic feedback and the built in mic. Also, very happy with the speediness of games loading and apps opening/closing. Definitely still very buggy though but looking forward to future updates that will fix them. Overall a beast of a machine.
