The next gen console we've all been awaiting...
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5It was quite difficult to pre-order the PS5, but I truly lucked out because even with all the restocks certain retailers have had... it is still unbelievably hard to place the order. I hope anyone that still wants one gets one soon because it really is unfair that the gamers aren't able to land one whilst scalpers have thousands. 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. It is probably the next best thing (only second to the console itself) with the way it works. It's not as slippery like the Dualshock and feels great in hand. Even after hours of gaming, I did not feel any fatigue in my hands. The battery life is probably similar to its predecessor. Overall, the console runs very smoothly and I have not experienced any sort of loudness with it. I do recommend when playing games, to choose performance over the resolution. You will absolutely get a higher FPS and I think it just runs a lot better that way. Would highly recommend this to anyone that wants to experience next gen even though we've just merely begun to play those games.

10/10 Process & Service
|Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5It took around 15 minutes for them to come out. After that it was just a speedy process of showing them the code and ID then BOOM, PS5 was in my possession JUST LIKE THAT. 10 OUT OF 10 customer service. Some of the BEST that I've EVER been through. I already knew the console was going to be extravagant. The first boot up animation was magical. The music put me on a different planet. I LOVE the lights that come through the console/controller and the haptic feedback/adaptive trigger features. The haptic feedback is CRAZY. I also LOVE how there's a built-in microphone, SO USEFUL. One of my FAVORITE parts is how LONG the charging cord is, this was the BIGGEST make or break for me. I was thinking like would I have to take breaks to let my controller charge? NO SIR, the cord is really REALLY long. So I can just keep gaming for as LONG AS I WANT. Games looks SO GOOD and download SO FAST. Loading times are pretty much NON-EXISTENT. Controller is REALLY comfortable and beautiful looking. I LOVE the glass looking buttons on it and the grip on the sides. Console is BEAUTIFUL, the neon lights look SO GOOD at night. I like how it's basically a built-in fan to keep it running smooth for eternity. And the base is made to keep it propped up and make sure that the console gets air. YouTube runs SO SMOOTH and you can watch videos in 4K. But yeah in conclusion, there were NO flaws in this process. Straight GODLY experience. Keep up the good work. God Bless you guys for real.

Great performance but launch models have a big iss
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Overall the PS5 is great. Games run at a steady frame rate, load times are basically instantaneous and the controller is something you really have to feel for yourself to understand how immersive it makes the experience. However, there is an issue with most, if not all launch models including mine. If you have an external storage device hooked up to the console and a disc inserted the console says "unsupported disc". You then have to either disconnect the external storage device or simply open another game and close out for that disc to be read. It's probably the worst issue Sony could have given that the PS5 only has 600 something GB of storage after the OS is installed to begin with. If it's a firmware issue it can be patched but if this is a hardware issue then there are going to be a lot of recalled PS5 consoles. There are a lot of people trying to get ahold of these right now but with this issue it wouldn't be a bad idea to wait a few months until it's resolved. In all I'm giving it 5 stars because it really is an amazing console, I just hope they can can fix the external storage bug with an update.

The PS5 is hands down the best gaming console ever
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5The PS5 is hands down the best gaming console to ever hit the market. The graphics of the PS5 are breath taking. You can see fine details and shadows and contrasts like never before on PlayStation products. The system is so FAST also! No long waits for a game to load up. The new controller is fantastic and really feels extremely high quality in the hands. My girlfriend can not stop playing Assasins Creed Valhalla on tbe PS5! She loves it! I would 100% recommended the PlayStation PS5 console to anyone. The only thing we had to do that was slightly abnormal was put the PS5 behind our TV so it could stay as cool and get as much air as possible. You don’t want to run your PS5 and restrict air flow.

So far, so good!
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5It's great! The system is REALLY fast.. like I'm already feeling spoiled by the lack of loading time. Anything that takes more than 5 seconds is making me impatient nowadays. lol The controller is pretty cool, but I think it gets raved about a bit excessively in the reviews I've come across. To me, the actual 'rumble' effect has decreased from past models. Now the trackpad and button sensitivity is elite! The actual console is really large. My first thought after hooking it up to my TV is that I need a new TV. It made my 40' screen look small. I admit a 40' screen isn't huge, but next to this behemoth of a system it just looks tiny. lol - I used the vertical stand, but you can also set it horizontally. You will still need the same stand, just set up from a different angle. Lastly, if you have a PS4, keep it connected to your TV until you complete the initial installation process for your PS5. They will give you the option to transfer your PS4 data over (they even let you choose what to transfer and what not to). So far it's been a pretty smooth transition with my PS5. I've only played a few games, They are still making adjustments and improvements through updates, and likely will continue to do so throughout the duration of this generation. Oh! and almost forgot! As a PS+ member, it also came with 20 classic PS4 games available for free download! Completely unexpected to me! I already owned a few and added the rest to my library. I haven't downloaded any yet, but it was a nice surprise bonus!

Best PS5 Bot Protection
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Awesome console. Using my ASUS TUF VG249Q Monitor I was able to play Cold War in 120fps.. Great upgrade from my PS4 playing & recording with my Elgato HD60S at 60fps 720p. New Dualshock is fuego, and the layout for the in-game menus are cool as well. Nice refreshment to the old Playstation feel. Best Buy had a release November 22nd @ 5am est. I added to cart for curbside pickup at my local BestBuy & their verification process to place the order was amazing. Unlike other websites with the next gen console releases.

True Nxt Gen
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Sony's flagship gaming system has arrived with all the hype solidified. The Playstation 5 is a true next generation gaming console. Intricately designed for absolute quiet gaming and heat flow, boasting an intuitive dashboard in full 4K and HDR, extremely fast on-board SSD for lighting fast game downloads and loading, and Sony's specific evolutionary game controller. The SSD is only 825 gigs with 620 gigs used for gaming so not a lot can be installed. It does have an expansion slot for NVMe drives to expand the storage. You can still plug in any external drive to play your PS4 games. Sony provides a high speed HDMI 2.1 connection for your smart TV but I recommend buying an Ultra High speed HDMI 2.1 to future proof for when you upgrade your smart TV with HDMI 2.1 connections. Currently 4K 60FPS(frame per second) is excellent on my smart TV HDMI 2.0 but if you want 4K 120FPS, then a future smart TV HDMI 2.1 upgrade is optional. Overall the system delivers and more. Also, Sony has just started and the system will evolve more with future system updates that unlocks more power....stay tuned!

Nothing Else Like It.. Worth it. Invest.
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Turning on the system for the very first time... It feels like a transcendence. THE controller. oh. my. God. I CAN'T put it into words, you have to feel it to understand the jaw dropping gleeful rush you get from using it. You can FEEL the weight of the weapons you wield. You can feel the TEXTURE of the ground you walk on. You truly feel the world in the palm of your hands. ....The 3D audio also had me turning around in real life wondering what was behind me lol. I will say, There are a lot of software bugs and issues like the system crashing and restarting, although there have already been a couple of updates that have fixed the stability issues for the most part. The UI definitely takes some getting use too, but parties with friends are annoying to set up and I hate how trophy lists scroll from left to right now. These are things that can be fixed in the future and luckily there aren't any hardware issues.

Q: QuestionWhat makes them think they have the right to say you can get 120fps when it is impossible in HDMI? Only wire that can support true 120fps is a Display Port. And PS5 only has HDMI. Max frames you'll get is 60. Don't believe me? Look it up...
Asked by TheRaptor30.
- A:Answer LISTEN, he meant your TV not PS5. You can't edit or delete your questions on here which I think is not right, but let me state some facts... I own a PS5 and I have made 3 YouTube videos that proves the PS5 will not go over 60fps and in some cases just over 30fps if you don't have a TV that supports HDMI 2.1 Over 90% of TV's don't have this tech, so if you think for one second you're getting the best frames and picture you better go do some more research. I repeat: If you don't have a TV that supports 2.1 you can kiss your dreams goodbye if you think you'll get 120fps in 4K. Only a couple TV's out there support 2.1 and I bet anything most of you don't own them. Here's the deal... If you have a couple thousand dollars and some cost over five thousand, then you can purchase one. Otherwise stop trying to make fun of someone just because you are unhappy with yourself. Kind of bad knowing you own a PS5 and can't see what it can really do..... Name calling and thinking you're better than someone only proves you have no integrity. Now go back to playing your PS4 because a new TV and PS5 is something you can't afford..
