    I tried for months to purchase the PS5 & I was finally able to obtain it through Best Buy. The transaction was easy & there were no issues with pick up. My son was so excited & loves it so it was all worth it!

    This is the PS5, what did you expect? It’s as next gen as you need and full of fun ways to play the same game with loading times that account for the impatient. Have fun securing one

    Love the console. Has some glitches but that's some what expected out of any new hardware as long as it doesn't break completely!

    Playstation has set it’s gaming standards at a high level this time. I’m pleased with the overall system and function of use. Can’t wait to play GTA 6 on this when it’s released!

    It took a real effort to get this console, bit it was well worth it. Streamlined set up and seamless transition from PS4 to PS5.

    Amazing console as you all know. The only issue is that there isn’t many multiplayer games update for the Ps5 just yet. My order was also ready for pickup within a week and there was no trouble picking it up.

    For this generation, the hardware got a huge update. The SSD, CPU, and GPU. I even heard a rumor that Sony is selling PS5 at a loss. But this can't change the fact that there is not enough good game on PS5. I mean PS5 only, not PS4/PS5. I sold my PS4 pro after I got my new PS5. Generally speaking, not a huge update for me. Playing the same game, and some features on PS4 even got lost if you play it on PS5.

    This thing is HUGE! I’m still iffy on the design. But the controller is insane! I’m always excited for PlayStation exclusives. I still don’t understand why new consoles only have 1 TB hard drives tho..?

    I use my ps5 daily for gaming and streaming, I haven’t had any issues or anything, everything works fine, even after running the system for hours it doesn’t over heat and no loud fan noises to keep it running cool.

    What can I say about the PS5 that hasn't already been said? It's a great console and I'm very glad I was able to get one at launch. Like my previous PlayStation consoles, it'll provide years of entertainment.

    The console is just amazing. Completely different and smooth. The controller was absolutely horrible though, I think when I purchase it came with some sort of malfunction as the X button does not work properly

    Best installation that PlayStation has offered. The meaning of nexgen has all new meaning with what PlayStation has done with this system. System is bigger but bigger has proven to be better in this case. Must buy.
