    Amazing Next-Gen Game Console!

    After owning it since launch, the PlayStation 5 is without a doubt an amazing system, especially when you compare the hardware in it to the price. For $500, most modern AAA titles run at a locked 60 FPS while running native 4K resolution. The only problem is the lack of games designed specifically for PS5, but as time progresses more games will be released for it and tons of classic PS4 games are being updated to take advantage of the RDNA 2 graphics, and make those games playable at a smooth 60 FPS. Considering the PC Gaming market, and the resale prices of other consoles like the Xbox Series X/S, and Graphics Cards like the RTX 3080, IF YOU CAN GET THE SYSTEM AT RETAIL PRICE, do not pass up the offer. The PlayStation 5 is an amazing console that is easy to use, setup and play beautiful games on in masterful quality.

    Got it being a member of the BestBuy Total Tech, easily the best $200 spent, didnt get got by Bots buying them up. Glad they did it this way, System runs smooth! I've had every playstation out. This one by far is the easiest to Upgrade. Simply remove the bottom cover, 1 screw and add an M.2 and bam more storage.

    This is the best console Sony has made yet! I do recommend adding a separate SSD in the PS5 because the storage fills up fast. It's quiet and stays cool during long playtime. If you are looking at the PS5 and can buy one, do it, you won't be disappointed!

    Love the console. I have always been more of an Xbox person and still am but you can’t deny the immersive single player titles on PlayStation. The dual sense controller is fantastic. If you can get your hands on wine you can’t go wrong. My biggest complaint is it fills up fast at less than 700gb of usable space.

    The Playstation 5 is overall a great item to have the 4k picture makes it look real... The PS5 loads at fast speeds and has not delay... Great for video games and watching movies on Netflix, hulu. The controller fits great in the hand and doesn't feel weird holding it... Overall I give this 5* hands down... Must have for everyone..

    I Love the PlayStation 5 UI especially the faster loading time and ray tracing and especially the graphics, the fan is very quiet, but what amazed me was the technology in the dualsense controller in all honesty this is the best next generation console. 100% percent would recommend getting the PlayStation 5 you won’t regret the decision of buying it.

    King of the cutting edge consoles right here. What Playstation lacks in original content, they make up for in gorgeous cutting edge graphics and a great online multiplayer platform. The controller on this thing is probably the highlight. People will be using the PS5 controller not only for Playstation 5, but on their PCs and Xbox's for years to come.

    Despite being a struggle to get for a lot of people still, it is well worth the efforts. Gameplay on ps4 games tends to be smoother and the ps5 upgraded versions look better as well. Load times are the biggest improvement in my opinion. When comparing side by side the ps5 flys past its previous generations.

    I'm very happy with the PS5. The DualSense is, surprisingly, one of my favorite new features on the next gen console. The SSD is super fast and I can't begin to explain how much of a difference it makes. The addition of a 4K Bluray player is a welcomed, most needed one and being backwards compatible with the PS4 means that I have plenty of games to play while I wait for more next gen games to come out. Now the not so good. The PS5 is HUGE and it definitely will not fit in most conventional console spaces, at least not standing. There aren't many streaming apps available at launch which is disappointing, but this will surely change over the next year or so. The PS5 does not support Dolby Vision or HDR10+, which is a big disappointment for me. I hope Dolby Vision support is added in a future update.

    Fast boot up time, fast load times, quiet fan and incredible experience with the dual sense controller. Much higher quality hardware materials and UI experience compared to the PS4 Pro. Astros Playroom will definitely show off the capabilities of the control and it's fun! Very happy with the PS5 and cannot wait for the next wave of games to come.

    I absolutely love my PlayStation 5 with the disc drive! Not only does it play all of the amazing new PS5 games with incredible graphics and lightning-fast loading times, but it also has backward compatibility with my PS4 games. This has been a game changer for me, as I have a huge library of PS4 games that I can now play on my new console. The backward compatibility feature is seamless and works flawlessly, allowing me to enjoy all of my favorite games from the previous generation without any issues. Overall, I highly recommend the disc version of the PlayStation 5 for its impressive performance and the added bonus of being able to play my old PS4 games. It's a win-win situation! It's definitely a bummer that it has been so hard to come by since its release in 2020. It seems like every time it's restocked, it sells out almost instantly. imma pray for y;all

    PS5 is worth every penny. I am a frequent PC gamer, but the console has enough features to get me to purchase this. Not only the console exclusives are some of the best (FF, God of war, last of us, horizon zero dawn , etc but the haptic feedback and controller are amazing. Definitely a staple of an gamer's household.
