    I’ve been trying to get a ps5 since release and Best Buy has always been my top choice. Having the idea to not release all stock at once and instead release it every 10 minutes or so was brilliant. It was the only way I was able to get one

    This system is really no different to me than the 4 as far as game play. I see a little difference in the clarity of the graphics. I like that it's faster with the start up and updates. I'd give that up to have the 1T memory back again though. It's like PS1 with a twist because the console looks all futuristic. The look of it is a good design but it's huge. I don't like that it only come in white. I could've waited because I feel essentially this was a money grab.

    Been using and enjoying, waiting for next gen titles to be released. Love the free Digital Copy of Astro World, show's great potential for future titles. Works great w/ PS4 games. Cuts loading time from 25-50%. I have had no problems thus far.

    Getting the PS5 Console

    Once I was able to add the PS5 to my cart, it was easy from there. The hardest part is actually getting it into your cart. It is reserved for you once in there. I did curbside and that was a breeze, just needed ID and confirmation number.

    Not a bad experience. Ps4 games still run like ps4 games. Not many launch titles. 120hz support on monitors is inconsistent not working on my 144hz monitor requiring me to buy another. No 1440p support is painful. Controller is really nice. Ps plus collection is pretty great. Wish sony made some sort of broad stroke choice like unlocking frame rates for all ps4 games to hit 120 fps cause they should. The ps5 is pretty powerful but not enough games can utilize it.

    This thing is super sick! You know rhe Xbox is nice and all but look at the design of the PS5. It's out of this world to say the least. Just one of those things that sets the bar quire high like when the iphone came out for the first time!

    It was a little difficult as far as the process of purchasing my ps5 but well worth it at the same time reason being the boys are taking over all sites but Best Buy didn’t allow that at all so i didn’t mind the extra steps. Thank you Best Buy!

    The Playstation 5 is a powerful console with a ton of great exclusives from Sony's fist party studios. The haptic feedback of the dualsense controller is pretty spectacular and really adds to the immersion when playing.

    Sony, you’ve done a great job designing this console. It’s worth paying for a great value system, making this a reasonable price range. The graphics display is amazing, even when playing on a none 4k TV. Definitely recommending this to a friend.

    The console is wonderful. The only problem is the controller. After a couple months, the controller already broke for me. Very disappointing.

    Great system but no good games out for it yet. The good thing is you can play your ps4 games on it. Slightly over rated but the controller is amazing

    The best gaming console out there right now. Period. The quality you come to expect from Sony, and the best console out there right now. No airplane sounds, and Triple A games play a treat. If only they were easier to get!

    Helped a friend get this for her husband so I’m not the one who actually uses it but we are grateful we were able to finally order this after trying at several different stores. Her husband was super happy and loves this new console.

    Amazing console. Can’t complain about anything honestly but there’s two things i really wish Sony had incorporated at launch. One being 1440p support and the other being ssd expansion from the beginning. Hopefully Sony can get that to us ASAP.

    Other then the high demand of the console it took me 3 hours to preorder the night was able to, other than that I love the PS5, also best buy did a great job making sure in advance when I was coming to get it and setting up time to receive it!

    I love this machine so far. Very thankful to get it as they are extremely hard to come by. If anyone is wandering about headphones. The Sony PS4 gold wireless headphones work fine with the system and you can turn on 3D audio in the settings.
