    A good start to next-gen gaming. Lucky enough to get my hands on one and I love it. The storage is a little small but hopefully that is improbable later on! The console itself is pretty, despite being quite large. The DualSense controller is a great feature, and I love the way it fits in the hands. Excited for what else is to come for this console.

    Beautiful console and in my opinion, worth the upgrade from ps4. Although it is a whole lot bigger, i was able to find space for it easily. The controller is absolutely amazing, but does take a bit to get used to. In conparison to the dualshock 4, the new dualsense has a heftier yet more premium build. Overall an amazing console.

    PS5 Review from a brotha

    Well the PS5 is here. It is HUGE! I was surprised by how large it is. It looks like a printer or a mini heater lol The controller is heavier than the PS4. I do like the controller better though. I'm still getting used to the triggers adjusting to the game play. Sometimes I feel like I'm fighting with the triggers on the controller. I don't think every game should have features involving the triggers. It gets kinda weird, but that is just my opinion. The app closed on me while I was playing Spiderman about 4 times. I've played Spiderman about 7 or 8 hours. IT didn't close on me while I was playing 2K21 or any of my PlayStation 4 games. The jury is still out on the PlayStation 5. The most I would pay for it is $700 if I didn't have it. I hope everyone that didn't receive a PS5 gets one. I felt that I was lucky, so best wishes to you all!

    The entire thing feels like the future of gaming. The controller feels so unique that I almost couldn't believe it. The full potential hasn't even been used for it either yet. SSD means no loading times past 5-10 seconds which is amazing. For such an affordable price, you get a machine that competes with $1K+ gaming PC's. Definitely worth the upgrade

    So far, so good. Everyone might not be sold on the design, but it has grown on me and might with you too. With that said, it is much bigger than the PS4. Performance wise, it is fast and smooth. Loading times are much improved compared to the PS4. The only downside right now? There needs to be more PS5 specific games out there to make this machine more worth it.

    This is a great console, bleeding fast and nice looking. The dual-sense controller feels great, and the sensors and speaker make you feel at another level of gaming. The only caveat is that there is a lack of games. There are like 5 or 6 good PS5 games and that's all. There's a bunch of mid-tier or ps4 upgrades, but it's not the same.

    Wow!! I'm super happy with this purchase!! I waited outside in the cold for almost 6 hours to finally get my hands on one of these and i couldn't be happier!! The speed is crazy fast the visuals are amazing and games that had previous problems are all running smoothly. I can understand why these are such a high demand item.

    I was looking for one for my brother-in-law for Christmas and Best Buy came through with a few weeks to spare. He was excited about it and played Astro's Playroom and Spiderman Miles Morales. The console plays fine, but the graphical jump isn't as evident as with other console generation changes. The gameplay seems to play smoother overall though, will less loadtimes. There aren't as many heavy hitting PS5 games right now, so I would recommend people wait until there are some huge titles to really showcase the power of the console. By then, it should be easier to find. The controller is fantastic. Best Buy's employees quickly brought it out to my car using curbside pick-up and informed me on how to hold the box, as they've had issues with the boxes falling apart and the console falling out.
