Yves Eugene –
Very good
Blake Zimmerman –
Product came in excellent condition.
Belinda Barrie –
The game console software is so bad I can’t play the system. I’ve spent so much time trying to fix it, updating software, restoring system, etc. Nothing works. I always had PlayStations but wish I’d bought an Xbox.
Ogden Ezekiel –
PS5 goes from game to media to another game really quickly, performing really well as my game console and media for my 4k. Definitely worth it.
Eileen Ben –
For a next gen console, it surely lacks a lot of basic features. Xbox takes this generation if this don’t take a massive change. I barely pick up this console. It’s an exclusive machine because anything that is third party is always Xbox.
David Pope –
One of the greatest i ever made!!!
Maggie Toland –
This thing is ugly. Matches none of my electronics. Runs well, has great graphics, but I’ll continue to be an Xbox guy. Happy Holidays!
Bart Emily –
1 Star for all the bad business surrounding the PS5 release and sales. Will see how this new system works and I’m hopeful it will. PS5 is a 5 star item!
Pag Wilcox –
No Complaints.
I was able to get a second for my younger child. Now I need one myself.
Archibald Ivan –
Came very quick. And There were no flaws. Runs perfect and I love it sooo much
Elsa Yale –
It’s a surprise for my son. I can’t wait to give it to him. Can’t wait to see the joy on his face!
Hedy Moses –
After weeks of refreshing my app every hour on the hour, I finally got a bite! Heart racing, add to cart, go, buy, yes!
But no. No human can compete with bots. Between work, life obligations, and crisis after crisis, we normals are doing the best we can. It is so discouraging to have nothing to show for it.
I refuse to pay more than retail, because I don’t believe in rewarding unethical, dishonorable business practices.
Annabelle Jonah –
Best console!
Maureen Mary –
Enjoying the PS5 but it seems they still fall short behind xbox. Keep pushing forward ps5
Marcia Dobbin –
Cant beat a computer that purchases the whole stock in nanoseconds.
Samantha Gregory –
Fast shipping most importantly because we all want to open it up. Anyways, the experience is amazing. If you want the 4K experience you need a gaming monitor or an OLED.
Morton Galbraith –
the new games that have been coming out for ps5 have been amazing. if you can get one do it
Denise Eisenhower –
It works great, looks great, and gives you a great gaming experience. The disc fan can be a little noisey for what you would expect, but it only runs for a small portion of the time any way.
Barton Nico(l) –
Bought it for retail, it works perfectly. It’s a PS5 what else do you expect.
Xenia Dunbar –
Looking forward to the future.
Natalie Lena –
I love this gaming console better than other available products in market. The graphics are so real that feels actual when playing the games. The vibration of the controller during playtime makes me thrilled. It gives me joy and remove my stress after work.
Larry Robinson –
Next gen consult is great once you can get it
Muriel Frances –
This console is amazing when paird up with a 4k monitor!
i play fortnite and all the hyped games at the best settings on the best quality and achieve 144hz!
Meroy Garcia –
Got it just in time to play Horizon Forbidden West!
Neil Roger –
I don’t dislike the system, but it just felt like a ps4. I’m a PC gamer so the performance increase didn’t really impress me as much. There’s also few games that I would play on the ps5 so investing on a console for just a few games is not worth it for me. However, for someone that is upgrading from a ps4 you’ll definetly notice the difference in performance.
Iris Felton –
Broken machine shipped to me. Once fixed it was fun to play.
Ingram Zechariah –
Sony does it again! Best console on the market!
Ivan Dutt –
thanks to my mom for getting the ps5. our plan is to have a gaming room with multiples so we can bond and game at the same time!
Dwight Kingsley –
The best purchase
Zona Bess –
Not great packing but it’s fine.
It was wrap in black wrap that’s it
Tiffany Bessemer –
I love this packaging design and especially because this arrived quicker than it said. It arrived 2 days earlier and it’s fantastic! This is something you should get as a present, even though it’s so hard to find, when you get it it’s purely worth it!
Anna Tate –
great console!
Sampson Perkin –
But now I have been promoted to stationary entertainment god.
Mark Esther –
It is a great console. The performance can compete with most mid-range computers at an extremely affordable price tag. I hope availability gets better so I can get one more for my kids to play together on different screens.
Pandora Parker –
Worth the up grade on load times for sure
Valentina Robert –
It’s the disk ps5 not digital but it is a ps5 so I’m happy
Rosemary Curme –
I loved it
Zebulon Hicks –
Just received my console and am excited, it is very pleasing to look at and very powerful.
Ted Warren –
Amazes me that I was able to get one but the box was ruined.
Deborah Eva –
Great console if you can score. There have been more and more restocks that you has done, and invite-only could arguably be a more fair way for new people to get their hands on this. Best of luck!
Allen Clemens –
Happy I was able to finally grab a PS5. you shipped it in 2 days.
Dunn Simpson –
It’s great! My brother simply love itn
Hugh Stephen –
i am so deeply like playstation .finally i got ps 5.
i have ps 4 for many years.
Sean Christie –
Anyone who owns a PS5 now will just say this: FINALLY.
Finally got my hands on one of these well-made, high quality (in terms of build and graphics), everything about it was just great.
The you box packaging was a bit damaged, but the PS5 package was in pristine condition.
Thanks to HotStock app, I was able to get notified and rush into this app and spam the buy-now button.
I played Spider-man Miles Morales Ultimate Edition, so I played both Spider-man games, everything was AMAZING from the beginning till the end.
Ps5 is hooked into a 120Hz LG C1 55″ TV and I couldn’t be happier than the setup I currently have.
Summary of all that: a PS5 is a must have if you’re looking for a console that properly delivers.
May Harrington –
thanks to twitter I finally got it in you
Phil Rhys –
No love for any company or individual that is involved in bot purchases and boosting. Imagine paying $1200 for a $400 console that only depreciates over time.
Bernard Springhall –
Excellent
Colbert Leighton –
I really liked this system. Great graphics and features. I would have given it 5 stars although it was pricey and limited release and to me that effected my review. All in all good product Sony/PlayStation!
Jill Sonmerfield –
Very smooth and games download fast. Still adjusting to the new controller. Overall, solid.
Avery Grace –
Games are being sold for use with internet connection only! Why do i need a console? Why would i buy a single player game? If you can’t play a single player game without an internet connection did you really buy it? If you paid for it and you can’t play it because of a faulty internet connection do you own it?
Bella Trevelyan –
play station 5,finally got one.
best gift for the new year!!!!!!
Brian Gallup –
When I got the email the units were sold out. No guarantee they will hold one for me, first come first serve. Then I read reviews where people have bought several and resold them at a higher price. Just reading these is annoying and frustrating. Well I will never buy a Playstation 5 for more than the LIST PRICE so whoever these people are that resell them will never get my business. My PS4 still works although lately (conspiracy theory) it is running slow, loading slower than normal etc. and sometimes automatic saves go missing (one can only wonder)… One would think after so many years either Sony would get on the ball or the resellers would take the hint…I guess not. I suppose there are people who are willing to toss $1000 or more for a console that lists at around $500??? Not me. Not me ever… I don’t give a care how fast the PS5 is, or how wonderful people say it is. I stick with my old PS4 till these come available at normal list price!
Myra Alice –
120 fps feels so much better and haptic feedback is great
Kenneth Boyle –
Picked this up thanks to Escoboy’s Sauce.
Alva Walsh –
Huge success and very happy with the purchase.
Hannah Charles –
The wait is over. Finally secured one for the win. A must buy.
Lillian Dorothy –
Runs smoothly and was delivered faster than expected definitely recommend
Mary Hill –
Great console! A bit big but great!
Lena Bartholomew –
I love this thing thanks hard rock nick!
Burke Green –
Waited for a year for this but totally worth it! DualSense is hella good, and overall graphics are super good.
Joseph Hope –
Awesome System
Fitch Juliana –
you Purchase and delivery review: I obtained this console through you thanks to @supplyninja on Twitter with the drop, retail price, via Treasure Truck. I suggest everyone follow him. I waited over two months to obtain the console, and it came on time via you. I was very skeptical that you allowed the external box to be delivered in a partially opened condition. With a very close examination of the PS5 box and console, serial numbers matched and the console was not bricked at all.
Console review: Having said all of that, this is an AMAZING console. PS Plus has good game deals, PS Now expands the library available to you. The controller is great in hand and I am comfortable playing a game for 6+ hours before the next charge or a break. System storage is large, but these games can fill that up quickly. If you want more storage, get an M.2 and install it internally, as external additional storage can only store PS4 games. With Playstation’s exclusives in mind, Sony is showing the gaming industry how to do gaming and entertainment!
(If only it was more available).
Lou Copperfield –
I’ve had my PS5 since release & I can confidently tell you it’s worth the price. I personally never had a PS4 last generation so this was definitely a nice change. However, the library for exclusive PS5 games currently isn’t much, but Sony has proven that there’s so much to come in the future. If you haven’t gotten one, I recommended it (if you can of course)
Jack Max –
Love it! Just dont connect your external hard drive that you use for your ps4 to it.
Matt Evelina –
Great
Wordsworth Cocker –
A great next generation console I’m happy I was finally able to get my hands on! High quality material and fast and responsive. From it’s current use the fans have not been an issue at all even with games that have high demanding graphics.
Benjamin Hubbard –
The system works silk smooth. No damages on the package. Everyone deserves this masterpiece so a request is to drop these consoles more frequently.
Burton Milton –
Ps5 Disc Version nice
Baldwin Gilbert –
Best gaming console to date
Miranda Jeremiah –
PS5 is a nice upgrade over the PS4 for the price. It can play 4K Blu Rays, games at nice FPS and graphics. The controller is a massive upgrade. It feels great buttons are nice. Games load faster as they should considering everything uses SSDs now. There are some software features that I would like to be added like Discord support, better games and app storage management. Hardware wise would like to see to a smaller version for sure.
Horace Lawrence –
The graphic is really is amazing. Playing on a 4k OLED TV is hard to beat, even by a top of the line gaming PC. Load time is also great. Only downside is that you you have download / copy the game into the system even if you own the disc. This takes a while. Other than that, it is truly is a great system
Haley Lindsay –
Great thanks
Lynn Faulkner –
Good console
Vincent Adelaide –
The BEST
Daphne Lily –
Disliked the fact that I couldn’t physically punch someone in the mouth for taking my PS5 out of my cart.
Eartha Lizzie –
I was lucky enough to get a hold on one of these for my Mom just before Christmas. We’ve owned every PlayStation console, and this one is just awesome. The only issue we have is that it keeps telling us it can’t load the store, or PS Now when we try to browse. We literally have to reset our router every time and it’s quite annoying. Otherwise it’s great!
Xaviera Hemingway –
I bought it as a gift. No complaints. Arrived amazingly fast, without damage. Definitely recommend buying this from you as opposed to other retailers.
Wayne Gallacher –
PS5 is good but tbh Xbox has a better game selection.
Deirdre Hamlet –
Best game console on the market hands down. I love this thing! Worth every penny.
That aside, be careful and pay close attention to your shipping and deliveries. The consoles coming from you seem to have problems making it to their destination.
Myrna Temple –
Finally was able to get one for retail price for my son. I was able to order quickly and received it within about 2 days. The only thing is when I received it the box was torn as if someone tried to see what was inside. Other than that my son loves it.
Kelly Commons –
Taxed someone for it tho, but yeah its sweet fr. 10/10 no matter if its for retail or not
Beck Addison –
got it!!
Marvin Isaac –
PS5 the GOAT
Byron Judson –
Wish you could really get a unit for msrp
Susie Harte –
Amazing console
Truda Irving –
This is the best console ever.
Pamela –
The quality of the gameplay is great, 4k 120 fps. speed is great, shipped fast, arrived quick
Maxine Morris –
Works Perfectly and in awe with the console!
Eugene Whit –
Got the console that I paid for. Packaging was ripped at the bottom from what I assume to be a sloppy packager.
Corey Job –
The console is great as expected. However, you packed it in a huge box with no bubble wrap or anything else inside of it. The system could’ve easily been damaged from moving around inside the box so much.
Jodie Wild –
Took a W, now I play and take Ls
James Walton –
Runs smooth, high quality graphics. DualSense controller is the best. Console comes with Astro’s Playroom which is fantastic.
Ann McDonald –
Ps5! What else can I say. Great product! Item recieved on time. Will buy again
Vanessa Faraday –
PS5 is really difficult to get, but the gaming experience is truly next gen. The graphic aside – the dualsense controller is really is something else.
Abner Micah –
If you can get your hands on it, it is money well spent. Definitely worth the buy for exclusives and the powerful ssd
Bill MacArthur –
Perfect!
Robin Brown –
The best treat for this
Benedict Wilmot(t) –
Definitely worth the wait, I was able to snag one a while back from you.
Len Lloyd –
Package came in excellent condition and fast! Jumped right into playing and setup was easy. Only downside is the how massive and bulky the console is. Regardless, still happy with my new PS5!!!
Ken Vaughan –
Recommend it
Betty Maggie –
Amazing device
Eudora Hazlitt –
I love it!
Justin Adela –
Best console ever made! Would recommend this to anyone that’s looking for a great gaming experience.
Adolph Bach –
Product was brand new, fast shipping.
Harriet Birrell –
The graphics and the overall speed of operating the system make this a worthy upgrade already. An added plus is that you can still keep you ps4 catelog with you.
Lambert Leopold –
Lo mejor del mercado
Eric Martha –
Love it
Armstrong Joyce –
Goat console
Modesty Polly –
This is a great gaming console. There are so many games to play and it so much fun. Also love being able to play blu ray disc and dvds with it. The processing speed of this is so fast there is almost no “lag” in playing and loading games. Call of Duty is my favorite on this and provided hours and hours of fun.
Hogan Gabriel –
I love it and playing every day for one hour. It refreshes my mind after work. On weekends my friends love to come over to play fifa.
Ernest Nell –
The console works great. All the games I enjoyed on the ps4 works even better on the ps5. However, the fan in my ps5 is really loud in comparison. I am not sure if its just my unit but I hope it isnt broken
Mirabelle Eve –
Amazing system to have especially with Sony’s exclusive games!
Ralap Kipling –
Been waiting to get one of these for the longest time and finally got one retail price. It’s a great console now I just need a 8k tv
Carr Thoreau –
I love it the specs the 8k everything is badass
Clarence Becky –
I am playing Cyberpunk 2077 on this PS5 and I expected it to run smooth. I am still getting bad lag playing OFFLINE, and there are significant bugs that make the game essentially unplayable. I thought this would be fixed in this new generation of console but obviously that was wrong. Not sure if this is fixable some how…
Clara Crofts –
Kids and husband loved their gift! Came fast and worked as expected. Happy to get it when sold out everywhere else!
Trista Owen –
It was dope
Dylan Morton –
I get along well with my console and have been 3 months
Dick Hewlett –
I love that new gen console specially the graphics I love how fast load times are and that you can play PS4 games on it.
Angela Bloomer –
The ps5 has insanely fast loading times during games and the graphics look amazing in 4k HDR! I put a 2tb nvme ssd into the expansion slot with ease and now have ~2.7 TB of total space for games. The blueray player is a plus because i have a decent sized collection of 4k movies on blueray. I 100% recommend buying this when you have the opportunity
Derrick Nelson –
This is my best purchase of the year!
I’ve been playing PS for so many years because of its exclusive games. I really enjoy it but the loading time was a bit long recently since the modern game’s quality is good. I don’t know what type of SSD this PS5 is using but the loading time is insane – most of the time it finishes while you read the text on the screen.
With the fast loading time, the console can load the data more than you think – which can give you a way better gaming experience, the graphics are better and the lights and shadows in-game are more realistic.
Another thing I have to mention is the noise of the console. If you had a PS4 you know every time you turn it on or start to play, it’s just like you playing at the airport – super noisy. PS5 is 10 times quieter! That’s a big thing because the noise is really a distraction when you try to play FPS games listening to the footsteps. A huge plus for FPS gamers.
There are so many good things to say if you’re a gamer. I can only say it’s good if you are always a PS guy. I don’t own a next-gen XBOX so I’m not sure how that performs, but as a PS player, you will be happy about these. The long time wait was worth it.
Talk about the games, PS5 supports previous PS4 games and many of them can be upgraded to the PS5 version for free, the quality and experience were enhanced so enjoy!
Violet Will –
It came pretty fast. Works like it should and no complaints. I barely play it, it’s more of a mantle piece during the covid war. So it’s my trophy for buying one for MSRP!
George Dolly –
They keep their word
Oscar Moore –
there are still no good games for the console. they just lost activision.
Mick Darwin –
Wait and buy for MSRP or don’t but one at all. Sad that scalpers are making these so much harder to get on top the parts and material shortages. It’s a great console and worth every penny…. of MSRP. Don’t recommend spending any more than that for a scalped one.
Gabriel Bridges –
Beautiful console. Top of the line. Will be a wonderful Christmas present. Plays ps4 games tp keep cost down.
Hugo Dulles –
It was worth every penny and every second trying to get it!!!!
Darcy Moulton –
The joysticks on my controller are already sticking
Zara Antoinette –
PS5 is a great console. Highly recommend.
Theresa Clarissa –
My son loves his PS5, but he cant get off of it. haha. Great rendering speed and overall quality. Massive improvement from the PS4
Gill Camilla –
Worth every penny for it, I’m so glad I got the disc version as I can play all my old PS4 title since there aren’t as many PS5 games out there yet. but at the same time I am spoil with the beautiful graphic from PS5. it is much thicker and wider than the PS4 in turn of size, I had to make some adjustment to fit in my entertainment shelf while laying flat, but it all worked out well. picked up the PS Plus since beginning of the year so I have been racking up some free PS5 games alone with it, highly recommend getting that!
Owen Geordie –
It was hard to get, but here we are!
Alvin IV. –
Specs Xbox is better. Microsoft is buying more and more studios. Xbox is going to be the superior system. Have both but I have to say, ps let me down compared to the XS
Winston Keppel –
Amazing
Esther Washington –
When I turn on my PlayStation it touches my soul and for a brief moment I get a fleeting glimpse of 360 no scoping Phil Spencer with bullet in the shape of Jim Ryan. 10/10.
Hayden Priestley –
Love the graphics
Moira Nahum –
I come from an XBox product background where my main console was a 360, and I also have a Series X.
Both systems (Series X) are very comparable and very powerful. You can’t go wrong with either system. If you can get one.
Natividad Lewis –
Came very fast and my kids love it. They play games for hours with beautiful graphics
Beverly Eveline –
Item was shipped and received with haste. Packaging and items all in perfect condition.
Milo Toby –
Super fast system. Hard to get but if you can its worth it!
Elva Wheatley –
Glad I got one, can’t wait for more PS5 games.
Kevin Yerkes –
Finally able to get one, even though the computer chip shortage has delayed Sony from selling them in greater numbers. Absolutely amazing graphics and system! Definitely worth the upgrade from the PS4.
Ron Christian –
I was one of the lucky ones to get this the first month and have had it since and here are my thoughts.
Pros:
I only had the base PS4 since 2014 and is a major upgrade in terms of loading times, menu access, and free PS5 upgrades from PS4 games ( depending on the company and game ) so that’s mainly 60 FPS (Frames Per Second).
It is easier to clean the PS5, The system is super quiet compared to the fan of a PS4.
The UI interface is a major upgrade making it easier to access apps, settings, games, etc.
Cons:
The controller is amazing but the adaptive triggers have a flimsy coil that will break if you put too much pressure on it, mine’s been broke 2 months after use and a new one is $69 or send it in and wait a couple weeks. It also has a major drift problem where it aims in a certain direction because of it’s dated hardware and is frustrating, especially if you play multiplayer games. I had the PS4 controller since launch and never had any problem with it and I have problems with the new controllers and took 2 months for problems to occur.
In short, flimsy hardware for an advanced controller.
Storage is little compared to the games made today. it is 667 GB and that’s small if you have a big collection of PS4 and PS5 games. Mind you games like Call of Duty is 200 GB. Luckily there is a storage upgrade but it can range a couple hundred dollars so that’s based on your preference.
The PS5 is worth buying but not for the price above $500 and I hope everyone will be able to get there hands on one of these soon.
Joanna Price –
I bought this for my brother’s birthday. The new system is better and faster than previous version. Graphics are so awesome that after turning light off while playing gives you real world feeling. Although it is little bit heavy in weight but the look is better with attractive design.
Virginia Coleridge –
super lucky to get my hands on this. if you were able to get it, its definitely worth the money. definitely need an alert for this if you want a chance to buy one.
Renee Gray –
No damage. Fast delivery speed. Great quality!
Nathaniel Bethune –
Finally got it. Excellent and everything everyone says.
Stan Kathleen –
It’s a great console exceeds every expectation and great to not have to pay the scalper price
Matthew Isaiah –
I absolutely love this thing!!!!
Cecil Macadam –
Great gaming console. Easy to play and has great features compare to previous version.
Dennis Powell –
System Controller are excellent new designs.
Stand out exclusives
Worthy successor
Devin –
I’ve had every console that Sony has released. Man did they not disappoint with this one. Much better than the Xbox.
Stanford Gibson –
everything that you could ask for in one thing
Levi Tours –
I’m a big gamer and I have the Xbox series as well so I know the ps5 is the cherry on top.
Page Whittier –
I love this console worth the money 100%
Ina Ernest –
Fast delivery, wonderful product
Walker Melville –
Love it!
Chasel Swinburne –
Love my PlayStation 5, shoutout to you for getting me one!
Zenobia Jane –
Sony are really playing mind games on people
Antonia Ellis –
Thank you for helping my cousin finally get a PS5!
Giles Landon –
Ordered it off you after a few months, very nice worth the upgrade definitely
Kerr Tracy –
To customers who have spent hundreds of dollars on previous versions of consoles, games and accessories is breathtakingly bad. I just spent hours trying to order a PS5 only to be told they are sold out. This situation has been managed very poorly and reflected minimal loyalty to longstanding customers. And no method to pass on these concerns to Sony management.
Celeste Bright –
NBA 2K22 looks amazing and fun on PS5. I spend hours on PS5 daily. Great buy if you can get one!
Phoenix Spender –
Wonderful console once you find one. Beautiful graphics. New controller triangle button sticks however.
Reginald Tony –
Console is great. Works faster than ps4 and looks better. However it is so expensive for a console that I can play games with my ps4 still. Where are all the new games?!
Mandel Bulwer –
Helped score this for a friend who was looking.
Geoffrey MacDonald –
Even though there aren’t a lot of games out yet, playing the remaster version actually feels like you are starting a new game. The games run extremely smooth and so far there has been no overheating. It was very easy to set up and playing the remastered Nioh feels great. The only downside is you will eventually run out of memory space. Around 10-12 games the most right now and I had to get an external hard drive to play the rest. Wished it had more memory, but the system overall is great.
Polly Tom –
just as described and fast delivery
Novia Bobby –
Helped to get this for a friend. With a little patience you will get your hands on one as well!
Broderick Black –
The wait sucks I know, the countless hours in an online queue only to get in and see “out of stock”. Keep trying, this system is 100% worth it. The difference between this and the ps4 pro is huge. Visual, sound, and even the controller rumble. I hope everyone is able to get one!
Vivian Foster –
Great Product, well delivered. Playstation 5 best of the best.
Solomon Steele –
This console will be worth it once gta 6 releases in 2025. Also waiting for the Spiderman sequel plus wolverine. A bunch of games releasing next year hopefully they keep me occupied. Glad to have snagged one not sense of keeping the PS4 for me so this is a great upgrade overall.
Dale Orlando –
If you thought gta was good on the ps4, you will be amazed by the ps5. It runs so smoothly and I LOVE IT!!!
Zora Thomson –
Incredibly fast shipping!
Leonard Frederick –
A good way to play, awesome the dualshock, the 4k, the style, it’s big, but gorgeous.
Cash Carnegie –
I liked that it worked
Isaac Alfred –
PS5 looks amazing!!!
Winifred Crane –
Gaming PCs provide the best experience for next-gen or cutting edge gaming, but it isn’t affordable for the majority of families. This console provides a great gaming experience at a relatively affordable price. The loading times from the SSD is unbelievable and the DualSense controller is so comfortable and makes the games that utilize its features more immersive. Even though it’s a 5-star review for me, I don’t particularly like that the built-in storage is not enough if your gaming rotation is more than 4 games. I understand that this probably kept the console price down, but the small SSD limits how awesome this console could be.
Monica Fred –
Where are all the ps5 games? I’m going to switch to Halo on Xbox!
Kent Webster –
Good
Doris Ferguson –
This product is amazing.
Magee George –
product came damaged.
Alfred Dodd –
So much better than the ps4. I take it with me everywhere I go since I travel a lot. Graphics are INSANE!
Bartholomew Raphael –
still can’t find one available for 2 yrs now
Enid Katte –
nsns
Pete –
The console is amazing, the retail experience when trying to purchase a console.
I don’t blame Sony as so many others, instead I directly blame you. Literally every other retailer has placed a limit on the number of consoles you can buy, including the manufacturer. Not you, they could care less if Johnny Bot boy buys all of them, then to make matters worse, you allows Johnny to take said consoles and list them on their site for 2-3x the retail price. Not to mention letting people swipe items from your cart before you have the chance to checkout.
you used to be great when they were still growing. Now that they dominate the market they seem to care less about the consumer and more about the revenue.
Joshua Hodge –
can’t go wrong with a ps5!
Venus Nick –
Very Very happy with this console!
Very elegant looking! Best looking gaming cosole out there! Performance is Super!
Graphics is the best! Controllers are super awesome with the haptic feedback!
Marian Julian –
Perfect. No issues.
Yedda Daniel –
It has everything I wanted. Graphics, Power, and nice design
Andre Lucius –
It definitely lives up to the hype.
York Thomas –
Best console, came 4 days earlier
Woodrow Shaw –
Worked fine since early December but apparently there’s a rampant issue with the “Green Screen of Death”, I found out about it after I turned on the console and it was unusable. Screen is totally blown out with a green wash and changing HDMI cords and ports hasn’t resolved it. After research looks like there’s issues with the motherboard. Hilarious that after hunting one down for 6 months, I didn’t even get 6 months of use from it.
Wallis –
this is the best system I have ever had. it synced with my TV so I don’t even need the the TV remote to turn on or off the TV. it transfered my my ps4 and is very quick. it is just the best in so many ways.

I’ve only had PlayStation consoles since the PS3 slim. I really liked the PS4 Pro and the PS5 solves the prior gen shortcomings. Blazing fast SSD performance makes it seem like the old cartridge consoles of yesteryear for loading times. My biggest complaints are the color, shape, size, and storage capacity. This thing is BIG. The color doesn’t match any other device in my TV stand so it stands out. Thankfully you can now purchase different color plates but it’s crappy you have to pay more to make it match. The curvy design requiring a stand is awkward at best. Finally the storage capacity is 825 GB rather than a more industry standard 1 TB. With the OS you’re only left with 667 GB usable which is used up quickly. You can run PS4 games from an external drive to save space. Altogether I still like the console and am excited for Horizon Forbidden West.

I know how hard these consoles are to get still even after being in 2022. The gaming experience is amazing and the exclusives are great if you enjoy quality storyline
Angelo Sinclair –
PS5 works great! Finally got one after all the scalping madness. Can’t wait to play FF7 remake
Frank Grant –
No hiccups whatsoever with this console. Can’t speak for xbox as I never bought one, but the FPS and smoothness of gameplay is amazing. Very user friendly. This was the biggest aspect for me.
Stacey Occam –
The best gaming product on the market
Baird Bronte –
Really nice to look at and it’s way faster than the ps4
Francis Ricardo –
This console is the best $3500 game console you can get. Super fast and really awesome. I think it’s worth $7,000, but don’ tell SONY!!!
Jerome Guy –
I want to start this by saying I got my PS5 on launch through Sony directly. I was lucky enough to get one on pre-order. So everything I’m saying is from MY experience with the console and based on facts and not either lying about something or being salty because “I didn’t get one” so I make up things I’ve heard.
First STOP blaming Sony for the shortage, same with blaming Microsoft for their shortage. It’s due to component shortage which all stems from the pandemic (Covid-19). You want more consoles then do the following: 1) Get vaccinated. 2) Wear a mask. 3) STOP going to large gatherings…..
Secondly, if you want scalpers to stop “stealing” consoles or really anything then stop buying stuff from them. If there is no one buying from them then there is no profit for them to scalp highly sought after items. It’s as simple as that, yet people still throw $1,000’s of dollars at these things because they have to have it now..which keeps these people in business and they’ll do it until it’s no longer viable.
Third, yes I agree Sony dropped the ball hardcore on storage in a few ways. First 860gbish w/ 600gbish of actual usable space was not the best idea there. I can’t say if that was a design choice or due to larger drive shortages and/or cost. Secondly they dropped the ball on making the storage soldered to the motherboard preventing anyone from replacing it if it goes bad. As far as I know currently the M.2 slot is not usable as primary storage if the board one fails. Now as for some people saying you can only store 5 games on their drive are in my opinion lying about that. On my console I had the following installed just fine:
Spiderman MM
Assassins Creed Valhalla
Call of Duty Cold War (Campaign, Multiplayer & zombies)
Watchdogs Legion
Bugsnax
Astros Playroom
Demon Souls
Along with that the people saying it costs $500 for additional storage again are either misinformed or lying for whatever reasons. For a 1tb M2 drive that works on the PS5 the MOST out of pocket you’d pay is between $250 & $300. Unless you opt for the version without a heatsink and buy a 3rd party heatsink and save some money. Is that overpriced? Yes it is by A LOT. But again THERE IS A SHORTAGE currently, not to mention importing has been a nightmare. Expect paying more right now, it’s the state of things all over the world.
Third, is this a true next-gen console? Honestly that is a matter of perspective, is the PS5 or Xbox series X currently being used to their max? No not even close, part of the reason is the previous gen consoles are still alive and kicking so Sony & Microsoft are still supporting those consoles. Will we see the power the PS5 can actually do any time soon? Again probably not, at least not for another couple of years. Part of the reason and actually the main one is console shortage. Until there is a steady stream of next-gen consoles available developers will continue to support both last gen and current gen consoles because that is how they sell their games and make money. I like a lot of gamers don’t like that but it is how things are and I understand that like most normal people do.
Lastly, the argument a lot of people have….Which is better PS5/Xbox/PC/Switch? In reality none are better than the other. Play whichever you like, I opted to hold off on the Xbox Series X simply because there weren’t enough exclusive titles to make the purchase reasonable for me. But to be blunt, basing it all on power/storage/graphics is futile. I still power up my NES and play that from time to time. The whole point of a game console is to play games and have fun, don’t get hung up on specs. Focus on what games you want to play and go that route. Enjoy yourself, play online and make new friends (just don’t be toxic….there is no need for that). Video games are meant to be fun, arguing on which is better just ruins it for everyone.
So to recap. Console shortage is due to pandemic and part shortage, impatient people keep scalpers in business, storage will always be an issue regardless of times or console, and play whatever makes you happy and don’t let people shame you for what you love.
Beau Reade –
One of the best next generation console I ever played .. its bad ass and love it thanks you your amazing
Hazel Goldsmith –
Brings me the bread, love it. Also love you Treasure Truck, the goats.
Kennedy Mark –
Packaged very safely, runs beautifully! Glad to finally have one of these machines!
Queena Eugen –
This console has beautiful graphics and a fast processor. It is bulkier than the PS4, so don’t expect it to fit in a small spot like the last console. The controllers are cool (especially the built in microphone and speaker). The system itself runs quietly and looks aesthetically appealing.
Calvin Victor –
Sucks to deal with scalpers and all, but if you get the pleasure to play on PS5 you understand why you need one. I’m not a fan of the size and hopefully there will be a slim, but everyone else is great. I recommend getting ps plus membership to play more games for free; howver, you may need to upgrade the hard drive as it fills up quick. I’m excited to play GT7 on this bad boy
Amelia Rhodes –
Very happy I got my hands on this. I love it and my kids have enjoyed it.
Doreen Luke –
Whats to say that hasn’t already been said? The design is dope, the performance is awesome and the exclusives are top of the industry! Good luck trying to get one lol!
Megan Billy –
Finally got one after months of trying! It is awesome! Graphics are amazing and everything works as advertised! Would buy again!
Barret Isabel –
you has been the easiest way to get both new consoles. Easy relatively speaking, check out is the fastest. Just keep trying. The console itself is tall but u just use the stand and keep it on the floor. The trigger tension for some games is a nice touch
Jocelyn Maurice –
Wonderful
Arno William –
I was so shocked to be able to get my hands on this !!! I got it during the you treasure truck event; the week before my birthday!!! So a definite happy birthday to me !!!! It came perfectly package and really discrete to what was inside, so my package wouldn’t be stolen. Great experience!! Hopefully I can get another one for my sister!
Bridget Lou(ie) –
There is quite literally nothing else to say. This is the console of the future!
Darlene Gracie –
Works great, excellent controller, looking forward to play some playstation exclusives.
Rosalind Grantham –

Scott Carey –
Significantly better performance than a PS4 Pro, the frame rates make a huge difference in playability.
Jason Law –
I love my PS5 but sadly it only took a whole a year and some changes to get one of these beauty. But I wasn’t willing to get robbed by the scrapers to get one. But if you one of the lucky ones to get one it’s the best. And the new controller is built premium.
Uriah Edmund –
best console!!
Adam Camp –
I love it but it took me a lot of luck to get my hands on one of this
Jesse Maria –
Can’t believe I actually got a ps5 no way!!! Time to play warzone with basically no lag.
Gabrielle Joseph –
The best console ever. Super fast and works amazing. 100% recommend this over anything else.
Xavier Spencer –
played it for the first time, everything worked as expected
Nicole Lindberg(h) –
I was one of the lucky few who received an invitation from PlayStation Network to buy a PS5 and have it delivered on the release date. Since I received the PS5 it has consistently been put to use and I haven’t noticed any factory bugs as of yet. I have enjoyed the PS5 since then and have great things to say in regards to the total experience. Now, it isn’t all a basket of roses and I’ll get to that later in the review. My first impression of the console was the design was lackluster, however it quickly grew on me. Especially with the new additions of the customizable shells in various colors. My favorite feature of the new PS5 is the controller with haptic feedback. This is a great feature with a lot of potential which hasn’t been fully realized yet by game developers. The new user interface took some getting used to but I enjoy the appearance and layout more than the PS4. The GPU and RAM are very comparable to its biggest competitor. I mainly play on the performance setting combined with a TV that has a high enough refresh rate to keep up. This has proven to be a marked upgrade from the previous console and will only get better as game developers start to utilize the full potential. The area where this falters is in the hard drive which is lacking in size at around 700 gigabytes of usable space. I’ve found this to fill up much too quickly. In this day and age it should have been too costly for Sony to add a bigger hard drive. Another issue with this console is scarcity and the difficulty some are having to get their hands on one. Scalpers using bots have also made this issue an even bigger problem with inflated prices. The last issue which is possible but hasn’t been fully realized yet is Microsoft buying up some of the best and biggest game studios. Sony does have some good console exclusives but Microsoft has the ability to now make some of the very best games into Microsoft exclusives. All in all I would recommend this console to those who can get their hands on one.
Andy Edison –
LOVE THIS THING!! AMAZING STUFF
Rudolf Ella –
If you like gaming on TV, this is your best choice. All games 4K without any issue. A great upgrade compare to PS4.
Norman Sara(h) –
hard to get one playstation on line
this machine is so amazing,5k 5K screen. amazing.
try to get one.
Adela Marlowe –
love it !! thanks you
Miles Catharine –
Love the new gen consoles. Awesome speed , visuals and entertainment.
Grover Haydn –
Anyone who doesn’t give this a 5 star rating is delusional. This is the best console that has ever graced the gaming community. Sony doesn’t miss.
Murray Habakkuk –
I upgraded from an old Xbox 1, the ps5 is so fast. I can also play all the PlayStation exclusives which I am really excited for. Highly recommend!
Oswald Hood –
Literally just went on you at the moment it was selling it and was manage to get it within seconds selling out. This PS5 is better than expected! I have the Xbox series S and I feel like I just went into a new generation lol I was going to the get X but since I have the S and games on xbox isn’t really my games of choices, PS5 saved me! The PS5 controller is really the star of the show here! The controller is like a whole system!
Miriam Lytton –
Love the graphics on my new PlayStation. worth the buy for sure.
Darren Adams –
As I expected.Its performing very well.Love it
Nigel Alick –
hard to get but glad i got it finally
Teresa Wodehous –
the graphics are amazing and the games are awesome!
Benson Emmie –
Amazing product, excellent performance, and best of all shipped in two days at a swipe. It’s just too easy on you!
Erica Newman –
I received my PS5 Disc very fast. The PS5 is working fine and I’m happy to use it!
I gave 4 stars instead of 5 just because the shipping box was too big and the angles of the PS5 box got a tiny bit damaged (in addition no protective paper inside). For the rest very satisfied with it! <3
Bblythe Jones –
I clicked to buy using hot stock! Easier to order and fastest shipping. My boyfriend was happy for his birthday
Fabian Zephaniah –
Great place to look for a ps5
Pag Steinbeck –
I am disappointed with how laggy this PS5 is for being the latest model. Running games like Cyberpunk or Warzone Pacific is terrible and makes the gaming experience very upsetting.
Leila III. –
It really does everything. Watch movies, play games. I came from PC gaming background and to be honest this is just as good, the only downside is FPS titles since a controller takes more getting used to. Overall im loving the ps5 and have been putting in my hours on the new GT7
Kent Tomlinson –
Perfect Catch…
Woodrow Bess –
The actual console is a lot bigger than I thought it would be and the controller is heavier than the PS4 one. The trigger buttons feels a lot better than the PS4. Updating the system and downloading games takes forever but overall I’m very happy with the PS5.
Aurora Dodd –
powerful console thats so much faster than the ps4. definitely a sony fan for life
Cornelius Lucas –
wow, this has been the best gift ever thank you! Love the product and the design. Works great in the TV room. No complaints so far
Dorothy Parker –
This is, by far, the best console I’ve owned. My only con is that the physical design of this thing is hideous. It’s huge, and it looks like something used to communicate with intergalactic alien civilizations.
Cool, if you’re into that kind of thing, but it’s not my aesthetic. I can’t wait for Sony to release the black panels to replace the stock white ones.
Duke Beck –
The graphics for the PS5 are 10 times better than the PS4! This next gen consoles is definitely worth the price and has tons of new features that greatly enhance gameplay
Lucy Quiller –
I finally got a PS5 i love but it took me 1 year 1 month and 62 days to get one the package it came in was good and same with the main PS5 box was in good condition to aslo there were not damages on the PS5 amazing condition but the problem is that the scalpers and bots buying out the PS5 stock from people who actually deserves it and they resale the PS5 at a very high price, you you need to find a way to prevent scalpers and bots from hording PS5 but anyway good luck to everyone who’s trying to get a PS5 don’t give up just keep trying you get it eventually
Winfred Lily –
First, the PS5 gets a 4-star review from me, I was able to play a unit from one of those lucky family members that spend 24/7 clicking reload once per minute during restock announcements. It is unarguably the best current generation. The raw CPU and GPU performance are very noticeable, but it a decent internal sub-storage unit with more capacity would’ve been a win. Sadly, the library has yet to grow to a point to make it a considerable investment. It was good of many development houses to provide “free” upgrades to many PS4 generation games, but I’m hoping to see new offerings of the heavy hitting IPs on the console.
On that note, the ONE STAR is handed to the business practices of the online retail market. You are not protecting consumers enough and allow shady scalpers to sweep the stock using bots and then reselling for obscenely inflated prices. These same scalpers use you’s lenient return policy to ensure that they don’t lose any money, and then re-buy the same units for retail price once again. Scalping isn’t illegal, but it’s morally ambiguous. I will wait for as long as necessary to get a unit at the retail price.
Sophia Eisenhower –
I ordered the ps5 on April 19 and received it on April 21. I am so grateful that gave us the opportunity to secure a ps5 console for me and my family. Gran turismo 7 is a must! The graphics look so real….
Michell Beard –
The fact that it is actually pretty hard to get your hands on one for the original selling price still to this day blows my mind. I refuse to pay $200+ to someone who sits around waiting for them to drop, buys multiple and then flips it for a quick dollar. The ps5 is honestly hyped up more than what it really is. The controllers are well known to get stick drift & bad charging within the first 1.5 years of using it. And to replace the controller with a new one is expensive. There’s very limited games for the ps5 alone (to have the full ps5 experience) and the headphones are trash. They hurt your head/ears after awhile and will break over time. Period. It’s really sad to see people fighting and upselling this console bc Sony only puts out a limited amount every so often. If you look at the gross amount of PS consoles sold over the years starting from the very first one made, the ps5 doesn’t even scratch the surface of the amount made/sold. Why create something for the masses but only have very few. I have so many thoughts on this. Bottom line, Sony needs to either make a wait list and sell only to those people directly or produce enough for everyone in demand. Terrible
Jill Morley –
The biggest issue I had with my PS4 was the jet engine fans. I upgraded to this in launch and even after a year, it’s been great, quiet and an incredibly nice experience. The biggest surprise was the DualSense controller. Astro blew me away when I tried it out, from the rain drops at the tip of your fingers to the triggers forcing you to push hard to hold onto something.
PS4 games all run perfect. Manhunt was the only PS4 game that had issues (graphical) but everything else has ran better. And the PS5 load times are amazing.
Pamela Tony –
This console is garbage. Beautiful garbage.
When playing with a hardwired internet connection it constantly disconnects and immediately reconnects. If you’re playing online you will be kicked and lose all your progress and have to restart in safe mode to update software.
THIS IS UNPLAYABLE GARBAGE.
Spring Childe –
Was a Christmas gift ,arrived very quickly.
Gordon Thoreau –
Beautiful graphic, good game library, and the control is out of this world
Winston Kennan –
Nothing that I disliked about this! Great system if you can get ahold of one!
Tabitha Bunyan –
I still can’t believe I was able to get one of these. I was almost beginning to think the PS5 was fake news. It might be a giant monster sitting on the shelf, but the power this thing has is incredible. My controller sucks ass though, it started out as a work of art. But it eats battery power like nothing I’ve seen before and other people tell me that too. IT went from charging to 2 bars to not charging at all in about 2 weeks.
Edit: Hard to say if my controller is damaging my USB C cables or if the console is doing it. My charging issue was fixed with a new cable…but I’ve had to replace my cable 3 times. The original USB that came with the controller lasted 2 weeks so I used a spare one and it went bad soon after. This last time I bought a comparatively expensive cable to see if this makes a difference in how long it lasts. My PS4’s micro USB cable was $4 and lasted 6 years…what gives?
Gregary Flower –
Got this for my husband as a gift. He loves it! He’s loaded his PS4 games on thus far. We’ll get around to purchasing PS5 games. The graphics and speed are insane. TOOK ME MONTHS of following the PS5 alerts twitter to finally catch one. Best of luck to those still trying to get one!
Judy Turner –
Great gaming system, need more new games.
Regina Thackeray –
I purchased a PS5 March 2021 and had it for about 8 months now. At first me and my brother were so excited but then realized it was supremely over hyped. Well we stopped playing it mainly when we discovered we could only store about 5 games max on the PS5. After this it became extremely unappealing to play because we would have to delete games to play others. It wasnt even worth it because we had to spend an extra 500$ to install extra storage which is the price of the PS5. Also because sometimes the PS5 would have data corruption problems that would cause you to have to factor reset it and it would really freak you out to know you might have to return it and PS5 are really scarce. Makes you think you might never get it back. Overall the PS5 is a horrible gaming system because they should have been created with 2 Terebytes of storage since games occupy at least 100gb a piece. It seems like it was designed to leech customers out of there money by making them spend lots of more money on the problems they purchased. They are really selling you a very incomplete PS5 experience coming from a hardcore PS5 fan since PS1.
Lance Dryden –
For a gamer that isn’t die hard PC, this is a great value. Super fast loading times, great graphics. Can’t wait for more PS5 exclusive titles to come out so I can see what the hardware can really do.
Marvin Maria –
Amazing console. Sony just keeps on making their playstation better and better I cant stop playing. Making me never want to look at a PS4 ever again on a tv screen/monitor looks great feels great plays incredible.
Adolph Scripps –
Finally!
Calvin Wheeler –
Love my PS5 one of the best consoles I’ve owned!!!!
