    Not bad for a console. I wish there were more launch titles, but it should be fine by the end of the year. Still not a PC, but at least I can play games with my pleb friends.

    A powerful console with lots of options. Not as much backwards compatibility as the xbox series system and the controller is a little different to get used to.

    Has worked very well so far (about 2 months), save a few in-game crashes. Easy set up. Runs native PS5 and backwards-compatible games very smoothly. Blu-ray disc drive works well.

    I was able too buy this very warily and my entire family loves it! I really enjoy the sensors on the remotes because it just makes the games worth it.

    Though they are tough to get right now, I’ve enjoyed the PS5. I’d recommend investing in an additional 1TB SSD NVMe with heat sync for more storage.

    The backwards compatibility with ps4 games plus enhancements such as higher framerates really sets this generation of consoles apart from their predecessors.

    Not only is the system amazing, but Best Buy seems to be the only retailer to put the necessary effort in to allow actual customers to purchase, rather than bots. Well done Best Buy!

    It’s a PS5. It’s a great little machine. Definitely recommend grabbing PS+ if you don’t have it to get access to the PS+ collection and free monthly games.

    Amazing Console. I would hold off on purchasing at the moment. The Console has a lack of games. I mostly play ps4 games off it. I would wait until it is more available if you can.

    Amazing console. Not a lot of games still, but tried Spider-Man and it’s gorgeous. Love the vibrating remote. The console doesn’t get loud fan sound when it’s working hard.

    The console is really large and not attractive. The awkward shape makes it hard to put on a shelf.
