Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’m impressed by ps5 and what it offers. it’s worth upgrading to the disk version if you want to watch blu rays and having physical copies of the game. Pros: -great performance/picture -plays both ps4 and ps5 games - has disk drive to play blu rays -console stays cool and mostly quiet compared to ps4. Cons: -Newly released consoles initially come with some technical issues such as crashing/freezing that hopefully updates will fix. -Storage is ridiculously small...so you’ll have to buy an expansion drive. -Disk drive can be a bit loud.

Great start to the new generation very easy to set up. Much quieter than the ps4. If I had to complain about anything it'd be the small amount of storage not a huge problem now but will be soon if we don't get expandable storage options

PS5 is definitely worth the wait. The graphics are much improved. The speed is ridiculous in comparison to the PS4 Pro. Load times unbelievably faster. The dread update times are much quicker.

Incredible graphics & speed. Definitely difficult to get but got lucky. My biggest complaint is amount of storage space for games. Hope Sony has plans for adding more. Until then, I’ll continue running Samsung 1T external SSD.

Just. Amazing. The controller is the star of the show here. Astros Playground (free game included with all PS5 systems) will show you just how much these various types of rumble and tension features changes the game. Stepping on glass, rolling through gravel, rain falling, traversing through sand, running on metal, etc ALL FEEL DIFFERENT and accurate. It's hard to explain, but it's just next level. Controller also comes with a mic built in and a speaker, so it's usable to chat with friends if you don't have a headset at the moment. The mic sounds really good, pretty impressive actually, but the speaker could have been better/louder. Framrate and load times on older (PS4) games are awesome too. A lot of games are coming out with free ps5 upgrades that allow you to take advantage of 4k and 120/60 fps.

The most powerful and consumer friendly system they have ever made. The power you get at only $500 and the compatibility with PS4 is amazing. Yeah Xbox has full backwards compatibility but the ps5 has so much better exclusives and a REASON to buy the system. I wouldn’t want to buy a console from a company who is considering not making another console in place of moving to a full streaming service. When the series X Came out they talked about just not doing consoles again. I’d rather be somewhere that is not ready to move on months after release. They clearly took care with the ps5 SSD options as the only one Microsoft allows is a proprietary inferior memory card. Yes it’s easier to install but I mean 3 screws isn’t hard either.

I have waited soooo long for this console to drop and it was well worth it. Amazing graphics, fast loading speed, and a gorgeous looking machine in your TV stand. The Dualsense controller is on another level of futuristic technology.

The visuals are amazing, the games are so much fun, and runs great! Couldn’t have asked for anything better! Was previously an Xbox person, but had to switch the PlayStation

It’s a PS5, what more is there to say! Hands down the best system to have with the best games to play. It’s not a pc of course but I have no problems facing pc players online.

Waited for many years like so many others. Was one of the lucky ones that managed to buy one around release. Yes, not just scalpers managed to get one into the cart. Very grateful. I hope everyone that wants one gets one as soon as possible. It's an amazing console, can recommend playing demon soul's as the first game to try on it if only for the graphics. The graphics will blow you away, no doubt about that. And the special controller will immerse you further into all the games. Does this product really need a review though? Maybe for people that are buying it as a gift for someone. If you are thinking about gifting one of these to a gamer just know you are aaaamazing and it will probably be the best gift ever received. For a gamer this console is everything. If you are able, get it.

With the grace of God and I seriously mean, the "grace" of God, I managed to preorder this beast on 9.17.20. I got it sent to me a day after it's release which is not a problem considering the pandemic we are going through (again). Despite hearing about all the faults that people are having with their PS5s, I have yet to encounter one so far so that is good. It is quiet, the load times are much faster than the previous gens, and the controller is much more welcoming to hold for big handed people like myself. That said, I am satisfied. Also, word of advice. Please do not buy these consoles from scalpers on Amazon, Ebay, etc. These machines are great, but not worth paying 2x, 3x, 4x the retail price. Patience is a virtue. Do not give scalpers any power. The wait will certainly be worth it.

Best system hands down! I’m lucky to have one and was able to pre order and pick this up when it first dropped! Extremely hard to get but I definitely see why! The only con is the size of the system it’s huge but looks so nice!

Fantastic Console, I have been a Sony playstation Fan since the 1st generation. By all means try and get the disc version, even older PS4 games play a bit smoother than the PS4 Pro. To get the full capability out of this console you will need a true 120hz Native TV 4k or 8k and must have at least 1 HDMI 2.1 port. This will allow true 4k@120 again on games that support 4k 120 you will truly be next level Gaming. Also the SSD storage is about 800gbs which certain games will eat that up quickly. So add at least an extra 1TB/2TB SSD stick to expand the storage for PS5 Games. I also recommend getting a external hard drive and connect via USB for PS4 Games

Great Upgrade from the PS4. Seemless gameplay as load times are basically gone. The haptic feedback for the controller is a must experince. Ive also noticed a major increase to the visuals and proformance on my ps4 games i play.

This console is blazing fast! I love the fact that I can play all my PS4 games on the PS5, while some of them also get improved graphics and frames per second. Looking forward to playing the new spiderman on this!

The ps5 is new faster and overall better than the ps4. But it brings nothing new feature wise, it's the same just better. It loads, downloads, and uploads faster overall. The different layout takes a while to get used to. A thing I wished they didn't change was that when you clicked on a game I still have you a prompt of whether to launch it or not if another game was open, because too many times I've accidentally clicked a game and closed a match I was in the middle of. Graphics wise only certain games have improved that updated to a ps5 version but those do look better. The party system is different too and I wish you could share play between ps4 and ps5. Overall it's better but not different. It has more space compatible with older ps4 games and still nice.

Not too many "next gen" games a year in, but the ones it does have are good, and the performance increase in PS4 games alone is worth the upgrade if you can get one. For reference, I play ESO. On a PS4 Pro using an SSD, it took sometimes a minute or two to load a zone. On the PS5, it takes literally 1 to 3 seconds. The jump from sub 30 fps in the game to ~60 makes it feel like a new game. The haptic feedback and adaptive triggers in the controller are revolutionary in some games, but are pretty annoying in other games. Thankfully you can turn it off if you want. Get a TV that can take full advantage of 4K, 120 hz, and VRR ( when it comes out). Also, don't buy from scalpers.

This is my first PlayStation, and it’s honestly amazing. The remote adds so much to the games, because of the Taptic feedback and the vibrations, and the console is fast, and futuristic looking.

Fantastic system - amazing PlayStation only games.

Does it really need a review? Super fast console, games look beautiful. Haptic controller is unique and game changing for immersion. Buy one when in stock
