I applaud how they handled the release and Black Friday online. It was sticky trying to get my hands on one however once I did the pick up process was smooth. The outermost of the package of PS5 was slightly torn. Have not plugged in or powered on system yet. This review is strictly for purchase/pick up review

Its a good one THANK GOD.. Very blessed to afford one, very very blessed too have a Good one... you reading this if you hadnt got one yet and are planning on getting one, dont stress you will get one, I'd recommend you get insurance just to be safe. God bless

I like the playstation 5 and the xbox series x. But I wish these retailers would grow a set and stop the scalpers!! They are just driving up the cost and because the retailers are doing nothing to stop it you are just as bad as they are!! So just like everyone should tell you I will tell grow a set defend the real consumers or shut your doors!!!

Awesome Machine, bought mine at the very last 9pm time slot and had it delivered within 10 days. i hooked it up to my Samsung Q6N 75" and then thru my TSR-700 and wow !!! Dolby Atmos and 4k HDR is trully amazing. i am blown away by the speed and the graphics that this machine is capable of producing. load times are a thing of the past.

Amazing next generation console with gorgeous graphics, super fast loading, and is silent for the most part. Does need some firmware updates in the future addressing some issues I have seen with “Rest Mode” but for the most part this console is a must-buy!

After having spent close to a week with this console I can decisively say this is the best console Ive ever had! Sony knocked it out of the park with this one. I love the new controller with adaptive triggers and haptic feedback (adds another layer of immersion to your games), the new tempest audio engine works with all headsets to add 3D audio to the games (coming soon to soundbars, surround sound, and even tv speakers too), and most importantly all the games Ive tried run at either a locked 60fps with dynamic 4k, or native 4k with added graphical effects like raytracing. In summary, I could not suggest this console anymore. This is an immersive experience unlike any other and if Sonys previous generation is any guide, there will be MANY reasons to have this console in the coming years.

I've now had my Playstation 5 since the 15th, and so far I'm loving the overeating Bugsnax out of it. I have had no issues with anything so far, and Astro's playroom may have the best "Hello. Welcome to your Playstation" experience. Highly Recommend this product.

I just got my PS5 today and anyone considering buying one whenever they're available I highly recommend it. Please ignore people who are saying PC is better or the new XBox is superior, each does what it sets out to do.....allow YOU to play the games you want to play. As for the controller, it's freaking awesome and weird at the same time. Playing Astrobot you can feel the bots that jump in the onscreen controller move around in your actual controller. As for the adaptive triggers that is a nice touch, the triggers kind of lock in place during the game and you have to apply various degrees of pressure to push them all the way in. They're redesign was a great choice. Also comparing to previous PS controllers these feel like their made with quality and well worth their price tag. Also for those lying about overheating, that happened ONLY at BB kiosks because they were in an enclosed container with no air flow. With proper airflow this system is 100% fine. Now regarding the apparent bricking of them I can only say from what I've read it has to do with using an external USB drive, if it's even true. Use common sense and ask yourself would Sony or Microsoft build a new system and NOT test this feature before final production? In any case if you want a PS5 then be patient and grab one when lowlifes stop using bots to buy them all up or when companies block that kind of tactic. If you prefer Xbox cool story bro, go get your xbox and enjoy the heck out of it and if you swear by pc, then awesome. We have enough crap going on in the world right now and enough hatred for several lifetimes. Enjoy whatever you enjoy and let others do the same.

I felt like I was a lottery WINNER! I was very on top of things on release date 11/12/2020 12:00 pm (EST) I was fully checked out with a time stamp of 12:01 pm (EST) I absolutely LOVE my PS5! Walmart was very fast in shipping my PS5 out to me in a unmarked BOX! Very appreciated about that

Phenomenal to even lay hands on this unit upon these daunting times, but man the chances stacked against me as a longtime PlayStation junky I had to try and man I can't believe til this day to have one this soon and quickly delivered. Not too worried upon STORAGE specs as we've all had to transition/convert PS3—>PS4. Adapt what you want on a ps5 standard and keep low standard PS4 titles til the time is made right to convert over. Smoother, crisp rates noticeable for the titles I've made the jump with. Looking forward to titles like Cyberpunk to immerse me even more to the finer detailed worlds to come.
