Sony - PlayStation 5 Digital Edition Console

Honestly, what do you expect? It's next-gen. The console itself to begin with looks like some type of alien object that's casually placed in your living room. The controller is fantastic, much bigger so it can grip in my hands properly now. I always liked the PS4 controller but now holding this I can see how much less of a controller it is compared to the PS5's. Lastly, you honestly won't get the full next-gen experience​ until HDMI 2.1 4k monitors come out that runs over 120hz. So if money is a little tight I​ would wait till it dies down. Not worth paying over retail for this console. So if you were thinking of buying it from those scalpers don't.

I am lucky to have acquired both next-Gen gaming consoles the Xbox series X and the PlayStation 5. PS5 -Standard Unboxing just like PS4 -New Dual Sense Controllers feel amazing and is rechargeable -Free game installed Astro’s playroom -Only Console with Next-Gen exclusives at launch -Cool futuristic design at least the digital version looks cool the disc looks like it was just slapped on last minute -SSD is really fast -Great and easy to use User Interface -Games look amazing PS5 CONS -slightly weaker specs -Only 825gb of storage?? -Still some bugs to work out XBOX SERIES X -Unboxing was cool almost Apple like -Game Pass (game library) -Design fits more to blend in and is really cool and is very Apple like as well. -Has better Specs on paper -Quick Resume is cool -Microsoft has deep pockets just bought Bethesda XBOX SERIES X CONS -No Next-Gen exclusives at launch -Same Controllers basically that still need batteries -I’m personally sick of another subscription (game pass) -Still some bugs to workout Right now I think PS5 is the better system right now comes with Astro’s Playroom and currently playing Miles Morales and Demon souls is just amazing. But that may change in the future because Microsoft just bought Bethesda (Doom, Fallout, Elder Scrolls) for their GamePass subscription which can be a pro or con depending how you look at it. They want to be like Netflix of games and push another subscription to drain our wallets is the way I look at it. I love Halo and the Fallout series so I’m keeping both systems. I also read another review that said the PS5 was crashing on the new Call of Duty and I can tell you it’s the games fault not the system because my Xbox series X was crashing too playing it as I prefer to play First person shooters on Xbox because of the controller. Although the PlayStation’s new controller will give Xbox’s controller a run for its money because of its interactiveness. Overall both systems are really good and I’m keeping both but I will have to give the edge to PlayStation because it’s overall package just feels next Gen where the Xbox series X just feels like a really really powerful Xbox! PlayStation 5 stars Xbox 4 stars!

Amazing system. Fantastic performance and overall gorgeous machine. Very very pleased with it. However, i did encounter a small ( or big, however you look at it. ) software glitch last night. My friend and i share games via gameshare, and when he sent me a game from his profile, the game was calculating how much space and time was needed for the download, and not even 1 sec after it was finished calculating, my system had a panic attack otherwise freaked out on me, screen went black, Me being ( my dumb self ) accidentally put the system into rest mode ( while i myself, am panicking. ) then, nothing. System was froze up. Would not come back on from rest mode whatsoever. I waited 10 mins, tried again, still nothing. So i did my only option at that point, hard reset. ( unplugged the power cable from the system, it was so painful. ) i turned it back on after plugging it back up, and it was fixed. Back to new. Day 2 of having it and everything is working perfectly. Haven't had any other issues out side of that one incident. So NOTE to future buyers: its a great system, its not loud at all, it doesn't really get hot, and the controller is fricking off the wall bananas. BUT! There are still some software bugs happening that sony themselves still needs to iron out. As to be expected, it is new tech after all. All in all, i definitely recommend the playstation 5 to anyone that is willing to get around the fact that there is still minor bugs and kinks.

Pretty cool console, however pretty big and heavy compared to PS4 size. I’m sure the size is due to nextgen tech. Controller is amazing and comfortable and reminds me of the Xbox One X style. The controller has built in microphone, no more headsets. The charger on the PS5 controller is different from PS4. I have two PlayStation 5 one disc one digital and I prefer the digital the other belongs to my 10yr old. It’s sleeker and quieter than the disc version. I will say the download speeds are faster than PS4, but the X Box series X is much faster at downloading large GB files. My oldest sons Xbox smoked both my 10yr old and my console download. It has the cool blue recess lighting when on and amber when on sleep mode. Graphics are fantastic, but to get the full experience I recommend having a 4-8k tv. The Home Screen and setups are different from PS4 so it takes getting use to.

The PlayStation 5 is an amazing piece of hardware. The console is super quiet and very stylish, though it is fairly large so make sure you have enough space for it. The PS5 launched with a pretty decent selection of games and with backwards compatibility there are plenty of games to enjoy. The most significant thing that will standout to most people is the redesigned controller that really makes the next gen experience feel next gen. I have yet to run into any problems with my console but some people have had a noisy disc drive, haven’t run into that issue since I have the digital edition. The only flaws I can really find with the console is that the UI is a little bare and the party system is annoying. Other than those minor issues the console is an excellent choice for your gaming needs.

This console really is next gen! It has an inbuilt mic in the controller, some games can run at 120fps, and the new controller’s haptic feedback is really cool. The side panels are easy to remove so you can customize them if you choose to do so. %99 of PS4 games are backwards compatible with the PS5 and some of them are improved on the new console. I would %100 recommend this console to anyone that is interested in it!

Everything It expect it would be fast, innovative the controller is blown out of portion a bit but it is amazing nothing like it, Makes your gaming experience unique. It needs some updates to improve on the system to make it better than the 4 with the features(Themes and Storage). But features like the switcher, activity cards letting you hop back in specific portions of the game. The whole dashboard the built in mic Makes everything about the ps5 amazing. Makes 1080p games look even better. All backwards compatibility games that are unlocked play and look alot better on ps5. Stable 60 every game I've played. Ghost, Saints Row 3, Miles, Sackboy, even sports game feel, look and play better. The ability the customize the whites plates is exciting which Im doing with mine rn. Best Next Gen Console. There's no debate

Is console is truly the greatest thing since sliced bread. Yes, it is bulky. And yes it will have your wife give you an evil eye over its placement. Yet, it is by far the truest next gen experience in a console I've ever witnessed. It is quiet, quick, it's controllers are absolutely the most exhilarating controller experience out there to date. Another thing that makes this console so different is the dedicated audio engine and hardware. 3D headsets truly come alive with this console. The only minor inconvenience has been the download speed a PlayStation 4 titles. For some reason PS5 titles load in about 15 minutes or less while you're playing a game. But PlayStation 4 titles take much longer to load with a lot of pauses in the download bar. Not a deal breaker though because there aren't that many PS4 titles I want to carry over.
