Customer Ratings & Reviews

Truly a Next gen gaming console. Everything about the PS5 just SCREAMS next gen from it futuristic looks, CPU, better custom GPU than the XBSX, SSD, UI, Gaming performance, Graphics and the pure thought and ingenuity Sony had put in to the cooling system. I also have the XBSX but playing on it just feel like I'm playing a faster XB1X and nothing next gen about it. If you want to play next gen games buy a PS5 if your satisfied with retro gaming than the XBSX or XBSS is good for you.

Quick load times. Controller upgraded. Almost downgraded for how big it is but who cares? It goes in the media cabinet.

I went with the PS5 over the Xbox Series X because I have a PC. And most games that are released on the Xbox Series X. They get released on PC. Plus Game Pass on PC is great! Anyways, back to the PS5. The new controllers are an improvement to the previous generation. When I had my PS4 Pro. I said to myself that it would be my last console. However, since the PS5 is backwards compatible with PS4 games. It was an easy choice to buy this PS5. Wish it was all previous backwards compatibility. But oh well. One of the first games i played on the PS5 was Spider-Man Remastered. The quality and performance is awesome! It definitely feels the closest the consoles have gotten close to a gaming PC. The Miles Morles games looks even better! When I tried to play Apex Legends. It surprised me with the quality and buttery smooth motion. That it actually got me a little motion sick. Hardware wise, Microsoft new console is better. But for those that already have a good Gaming PC. You should go with a PS5. I have yet to have any issues with my PS5. The only time that the console has been loud. Is when I play a game from disc. The added PS collection is great because there are games that I wanted to play! The console is massive. and Definitely have to make sure you have room for it. Whether you set it horizontal or vertical. The hot air gets pushed upward (if setting up vertical). Which I feel is more optimal and the way it is meant to be set up. Be careful when taking out the screw for the stand. Do not force taking out the screw. You'll end up breaking it. I am excited to see the next PS exclusives look like. At the end of the day. It doesn't matter what console is "better". What matters is that you have fun. Plus, more games that are multiplayer or co-op are becoming Cross-Platform. So it won't matter which console you prefer more. Because you'll still be able to play with your friends. :)

The PS5 is my current favorite console due to plenty of things but the thing that stands out the most is performance. The performance is outstanding which one should expect from a 500 dollar console in 2021, but this thing handles everything like a champ. Quick loading times, amazing graphics, and it never bogs down. The only issue I’ve had with it is some wifi issues but hopefully that will be solved in a future firmware update.

The PS5 speaks for itself. Can't go wrong using this product, and add the warranty just in case too.

What is there to say? Sony continues the trend of betting on their first party developers, and it works every single time. Of course the hardware has to complement the amazing software, and with the PS5, they have delivered once again. The technical masterpiece that is the SSD is mind blowing. The build quality of the rest of the hardware is solid as well. Only thing that caught me off guard was just how massive the console is. I knew it was big, but it still surprised me when I pulled it out of the box. The controller is a massive improvement over all the previous Sony controllers. And that's coming from someone who loved all the iterations of the Dualshock. The build quality, the comfort, the haptics are all amazing. I didn't know I wanted this so bad. There is only one complaint I have with the PS5 is the lack of backwards compatibility with anything older than a PS4. And even with that, it has quirks of requiring physical discs to be in the console for it to launch those games. Digital games are handled with no issues. That is the one department the Series X has on the PS5, imo. Other than that, I am completely satisfied with the PS5.

The PS5 is so much faster than the 4, the graphics are a big leap forward, the speed of loading and server-based games is much faster, and the née controller is the best controller I’ve ever used. The standard PS5 controller has the best features and the best feeling response. It’s better than pro controllers

Great console, but you definitely need to add more space with an SSD if you really want a lot of games.

Massive upgrade from last gen you can immediately tell the difference, definitely worth it

Very good console, I have been playing this console for a while Good graphics and fast ssd, better load load times

Love the new controller! Load times are so much quicker, console is HUGE but it still made it on mydesk setup!

Coming from the PS4, the PS5 was a significant step up in performance. The ability to transfer your PS4 games to the PS5 via an external drive saved a lot time and was very welcome. The built-in high speed SSD storage allows for very quick load times, but is relatively limited in size so that you're not going to be able to store all your old PS4 games and new PS5 games concurrently. Highly recommend getting an external Drive to store/play most of your PS4 games and leaving the limited high speed storage for PS5 games and active PS4 games. Unfortunately, after using the PS5 for about 50+ hrs, mostly on AC: Valhalla, I started seeing erratic analog thumb stick drifting on the dualsense controller after 3-5+ hours of continuous use. Weird thing is that the drifting would disappear during the first part of next day's gaming and then reappear after 3-5+ hours and would continue to drift erratically outside of the game and in the PS5 UI. After troubleshooting with Sony support and resetting the controller, I'm in the process of returning the controller for repair. Overall, the PS5 is a very capable and fast gaming console. Highly recommended.

Got to love Sony gaming! Great library and performance!!!

Powerful and sleek, the PS5 is a next gen console through and through cant wait to see what games sony brings to the table

As hard as it is to get, this console holds a great amount of value for only $399 and is definitely worth it. Its exclusive games are extremely replayable and its ability to support 120 fps as well as 4k gaming is amazing. The controller feels and performs great, and has no issues after 20+ days of constant use. The addition of adaptive triggers and haptic feedback in supported games gives a greater and more immersive experience when playing, making the PS5 that much more worthwhile.

Great console, super fast with amazing graphics, Sony outdone themselves with the dualsense controller.

I picked up the new PS 5 yesterday with a couple of games and I have to say that it looks very impressive so far. What I especially love about it is that you don’t have to wait for a while until the game loads. You can start playing almost immediately. Also the 4K makes a big difference in the quality of the graphics. I am really happy that I was able to preorder it since it was sold out almost immediately. I’m sure that everyone that was able to buy it is really enjoying it right now.

Excellent technology. Best system. Graphics and the capabilities are out of this world

This is faster, awesome grafix and almost the same os as the PS4. the new features it has in the controller is amazing.

the ps5 performs well but it will overheat and turn off playing more complex graphical intensive games unless a fan is pointed directly at it (i keep the system on 24/7 and never turn it off) other than that it’s good but the controller is trash stick drift like crazy
