    Ps5 is a big step from ps4! Amazing graphics 4K 120FPS. And the load times into game and switching from game to game is quick! Very quite system as well. Defiantly recommend if you come across stock.

    Definitely lives up to the hype for next generation. Playstation goes beyond standards for gaming with the haptic feedback on the controllers and having the same features as the blu-ray version.

    For what it can do, the ps5 is remarkable for its price! Graphics are amazing... games look remarkable. And the new dual sense controller makes the experience much more immersive than previous gen.

    The Playstation 5 is probably one of 2020's most mystical inventions. It took a long time to get one, but when I finally did, the wait was well worth it. I've finally set it up and I can tell you that it's extremely speedy and snappy compared to the Playstation 4. The only downfall currently is that there's not that many games available. As more developers provide games for the platform, this is definitely going to be something that's worth it. For now, I'll be playing Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales and taking my time with it. It's extremely nice to be able to login to my PSN account and be able to talk to my friends that are still on PS4's waiting for their day to get lucky and get a PS5.

    Holy Cow. This is awesome. I understand why it is so hard to find. Graphics are amazing. Load times are way better. I downloaded 3 games in under a hour, when my other systems would all day for one.

    Honestly, what do you expect? It's next-gen. The console itself to begin with looks like some type of alien object that's casually placed in your living room. The controller is fantastic, much bigger so it can grip in my hands properly now. I always liked the PS4 controller but now holding this I can see how much less of a controller it is compared to the PS5's. Lastly, you honestly won't get the full next-gen experience​ until HDMI 2.1 4k monitors come out that runs over 120hz. So if money is a little tight I​ would wait till it dies down. Not worth paying over retail for this console. So if you were thinking of buying it from those scalpers don't.

    This is a great addition to my console collection. The only con is that it takes up an entire shelf alone. It's sleek and futuristic. Definitely a conversation and stand out piece.

    I love this console as it’s simply amassing. It’s so fast and slick it’s incredible. The graphics are jaw dropping and the 3D pulse headphones are an amazing compliment. Couldn’t ask for anything more.

    I use this every single day to play my games. The graphics look splendid even on my 1440p monitor that supports HDM1 2.1. I can't wait to see how far this console pushes the gaming industry.

    The DualSense Makes This Console Amazing

    I'd like to first call out how much I hate the fact that these consoles are being bought in bulk by scalpers. It's unreal what people have to go through to purchase just one of these. If you don't have one, please keep at it and don't buy above retail if at all possible. The Playstation 5 console is amazing. I own all consoles, including a Series X & Switch, and can say that the DualSense is what constantly has me leaning towards my Playstation more with titles. The adaptive triggers and haptic feedback make it so much more of an immersive experience. I strongly recommend this be your first console purchase if you're on the fence wondering which one to go with.

    I am loving my PS5 thus far. It's a definite improvement over the PS4. The capabilities of this console are insane, and I'm loving the improved graphics and frame-rates, fast load times and smooth UI.
