    the graphics for games are unreal and the game load times are drastically reduced from the ps4. just wish that there are more games out for the ps5.

    We all know that PS5 is an amazing console with a promise of greatness with future launch titles and software upgrades but a complete experience is when you can purchase a PS5 and I think Bestbuy is the only retailer who has done better that anyone. 5 stars for ps5 and 6 starts to bestbuy.com

    Happy that I was able to get one!!!!! Between the scalpers and the website crashes on a lot of other retailers websites, it was near impossible to find one. Best Buy looks like they figure out the formula to stop all the foolishness and allow consumers to get their hands on a PlayStation 5.

    These have not been easy to get especially from Best Buy, you either have to be lucky or have a bot like myself. This is a good console though and def worth the money, if you feel the need to read the reviews on the product, you do not have enough interest from the start to buy it

    Awesome system everything works perfect 4k HDR is impressive and hardly any lag! Runs really soon though too but the only thing I wish is that Sony could have made the SSD 2TB instead of 800 somewhat GB’s(supposedly 1TB)! You’re gonna need an external hard drive or upgrade the internal SSD!

    Wife finally got this for me as a late Father's Day gift. I like that it came with a stand for having vertical or horizontal. I wish it was black and not white but the plates come off really easy and black ones are available to buy or the white ones can be painted.

    The PlayStation five offers ray racing compatibility games and amazing frames per second. This console has taken over my living room as my DVD player and video game console to go along with my 4K TV. The resolution in HDR in the PS five have been absolutely stunning and well worth the money.

    My son loves his playstation. Too bad he doesnt actually play it. Thats right, he only wantes it to play one game fornite. Now he seems less interested in it. And has gone back to the easier to play nintendo switch. Make sure your kids likes playing the games before investing.

    Great console, the whole family was amazed on the drastic difference from the ps4 to the ps5. The quality of the games on a 4k TV is amazing. There is much good things to say but I can't add it all in one review, all in all I would definitely recommend to get for a family member or friend.

    The PS5 has run beautifully and so intelligently from what I've experienced. The set up was of course easy and fast. The new UI is smooth and I definitely like it more than the old one on the PS4. The Dualsense Controller is AMAZING.

    I simply prefer digital gaming. No more discs to worry about. Just turn it on and go. Most of the games you buy require a download anyway, so I figure why not cut down on the clutter and save myself $100. win-win! If you really need that ultra blu-ray player then this isn't for you.

    Being that all Xbox titles are available in pc day 1 I opted for just the PS5 this generation, and so far I am loving it. Those promos about its fast loading times are no joke. My only gripe is the box I received it in had been damaged, as someone who keeps packaging this was a small bummer.

    I love this console, this is definitely a next gen. The loading times in the next gen games are faster then the Xbox and I’m not surprised. The Xbox series X loads older Xbox games faster but the new games the PS5 is way faster. I definitely recommend this console instead of the Xbox series X.

    Love the ps 5. Flawless system. My ps4 seems like it’s ancient, compared to the ps5. Reading reviews doesn’t justify the greatness of this system, you have to experience the game play and interact with the technology to understand why people are hyping ps5.

    This console is frickin amazing. This is truly the next generation of consoles. Picking it up at Best buy was incredibly easy. I applaud them for not taking up any of my time and even congradualted me for snagging one. Super nice and helpful. 10/10 would deffo go there.

    What can I say? I was one of the lucky ones who got my hands on the great PS5 early from launch day. It is bigger than i originally anticipated. I have no experienced any issues with it. Graphics are awesome and as a Playstation fan I couldn't wait to get down on this. My kids love it too!

    I don’t like that it didn’t come with a disc drive but other than that it’s cool. It’s exactly the same as the disc console without the disc drive. Buy a PS5, you won’t regret it

    As someone who has had a base PS4 for the last 5 years the PS5 is an excellent jump in quality. The Playstation 5 is everything I expected and more, it is filled with small quality of life improvements and huge technological leaps. I can not wait to see the limits of this console be pushed.

    This was one of the hardest things to get a hold of, I tried to get a pre order and never got one due to the bots and then when they finally released the bots were at it again. I finally was able to get one days before Christmas through the Best Buy app. This is a great piece of equipment
