    Great console. Looks good, controller is fantastic. Lightning fast, no more waiting on install times. Little lacking in storage.

    Took forever to get, but worth the wait. Superior console and gets better with time. The media aspect is okay, but if you like having your gaming and media in one spot, then the ps5 is worth it.

    sleek, powerful, advanced. These are all adjectives that best buy would probably like me to use in this review. The truth is, that it's a very good console that is worlds faster than its predecessor, but I has a few drawbacks of its own, like the fact that they do not provide a charging cord with your controller (it's a standard size so finding a cord isn't a problem, but it's annoying that I have to do that in the first place) and the fact that you can't store PS5 game data on an external hard drive which eats up all of your systems memory real fast.

    Amazing console. Has great games, displays them at high frame rates and resolutions, and of you ask me, has a very interesting look. The controller really feels next generation with the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers.

    Awesome console. Very hard to find but worth the wait. Very fast and the Dualsense is mind-blowing. I believe there the new generation is based on games taking full advantage of the Dualsense and the speed of this console.

    Awesome power, features and game support! The dual sense controller is a gamer changer, hopefully more game developers utilize the features. The console itself is whisper quiet, a little on the big side, but "go big or go home" I say!

    Sony's best console yet! Fantastic graphics and hardware! A very next gen feeling controller! The rumble feels so real at times and the triggers add a dimension to gameplay that has never been felt before! Can't recommend this console enough!

    Getting a PS5 when it’s in such short supply was very stressful but my purchase was not. Plus it was ready a day early! Didn’t have to bother with ridiculously priced bundles and unneeded equipment. Very happy with the entire experience.

    This baby is almost perfect. It's super powerful, whisper quiet, and easy to use.... BUT.... it's enormous. and stylistically... polarizing. i know some people love the way it looks, but i frankly think it's ugly as sin. but i still love it.

    Amazing and powerful console. Quiet unlike the PS4 Pro. But struggles to fit in any entertainment center either standing or laying down. Not yet the super console we've been waiting for and lacking in games but give it time.

    After trying for months to get one, I can say it definitely lived up to the hype. I’ve played Spider-Man remastered on it and it’s like a whole new experience, especially with revamped photo mode. Would definitely recommend to others.

    Have had this system since the day it came out! Has held up quite well so long as the playstation is shown some love and care. I open my console on both sides and dust it out every month or so. Also use cooling accessories to assist console with overheating if you plan for long gaming sessions that may be demanding of the console. Games look beautiful and run flawlessly. The power this system brings to the table is impressive for the price! If ya go with it, have fun!

    Worth the wait and hype, graphics and frame rate is amazing. The dualsense controller is truly next gen and an experience. I’ve had it for 5 months and have not gotten any issues with it. I am totally satisfied with the purchase.

    THE PS5 IS AMAZING. I didn't own a PS4 and they've come a long way since the PS3. This thing is stylish, fast, and can do it all. True 4k output is awesome. Get PS+ and get tons of games to play on this thing.

    Great if you can get one. Controller is amazing. Completely next gen. I have both the Xbox series X and this and use PS5 much more. Stand when laying down is kind of sketchy, and the console is huge. Definitely a worthwhile purchase.

    Very nice system with next gen graphics. Super fast ssd. So far no issues or any problems playing my ps4 library. It actually makes the last gen games look and play better. I would recommend getting this system if you can get a hold of one.

    Writing this review after a long time since I finally got this. Definitely has got better load times than ps4 and even better graphics! Although 825 GB SSD is a disappointment with additional 1Tb reportedly half the price of a console!
