it's a ps5

absolutely love it

Fast and efficient

I've been PS user since PS1 days in the 2000s, always have stuck to PS2, PS3, PS4 as well as Xbox 360 and made a switch to PC in 2020; then I've decided to go back to consoles for couch-riding and crossplay OFF purposes... while I did enjoy PS5, the servers went down for some time which took me back to 2011's outage and didn't like the idea of going through that again. Game Catalogs, Classic Catalogs all are pretty decent but I've bought Xbox Series X recently and I've found that I enjoy Xbox Series X much better in terms of Game Pass, UI, and controller design. Not everyone has a same preference so both consoles are as good as PC (except the fact that PC can go over 120 FPS in all games with the right specs and optimization). Speaking of optimization, XBX and PS5 has PC beaten in optimization because it's all the same hardware whereas you have to tweak here and there on PC. Overall, PS5 is a great console whether you're a single player or competitive gamer, just not my thing at the moment.

I got the slim digital PS5 on sale black Friday $374.00 and I got some credit back which made it worth getting for the bedroom. It includes one controller, and one HDMI cable. It was delivered when I was home. I have a bigger PS5 with disc player in the living room for two years and it continues to work great. I've been playing the new PS5 slim for a while now and it's working great. I have played several digital games, and they play great. In the future I can get a disc player for it if needed. The PS5 has an app for remote play that allows me to connect to my PS5 in the living room to play disc games on the digital PS5 in the bedroom. Also works with the PS4. I have a 5TB HDD external hard drive plugged into the PS5 and it's working great and can store a lot of games and play PS4 games. I also have a 1TB SSD internal PS5 hard drive, I plugged it in with a heat sink and it's working great and fast. Hopefully the PS5 slim will last many years.

They left it on my neighbors porch! Which clearly wasn’t my address! Luckily my neighbor knows me and brought it to my house. And if my neighbor didn’t know me they would have been souped up getting a free PlayStation 5. This is the second time it happened! Very disappointing

i mean, it's Playstation... of course, it's good. i was a smidgen disappointed that it's not the disc consol. but that's on me. i should have checked for that. i figured they were all the same type and all cane with the disc loader. oh well. other than my mistake, this consol is really nice. the graphics are great and such a smooth gameplay. im a big Cyberpunk 2077 fan, and the differwnc2 in gameplay and looks are phenomenal. What a huge difference. if you're swapping from the ps4, you're going to love it. i can't compare it to the XBox cause I dont own or play on one

I got the PS5 Slim due to me moving into a new place that was limited in space. I couldn't take my PC with me due limited desk/room space. With the trend to go digital in all things, I figured I wouldn't miss not having a disc drive. Plus, I didn't want to travel with a bunch of discs. There is not a thing I don't like about this console. I bought it at a nice discount that fit my budget. I know this isn't a technical review but I just want to say that you can't go wrong with a disc-less system.

amazing console games run flawless SSD is incredible the digital verison is perfectly fine if you can only afford it but easily upgradable to have the disc drive which i did , 4k an 120htz is supportied by every game pretty much as long as your tv is up to spec , the leap from ps4 to ps5 cant even be put into words how supieor ps5 is . complete ps4 backlog support aswell and amazing ps5 only games like silent hill 2 and demon souls MUST OWN hands down the best way to play over anywhere else , controller has built in mic for gamechat so headsets arent needed for chat but would still recommended a headset for footstep audio etc for intense fast pace MP games (warzone,cod,siege) the streaming features and ability to edit videos and directly upload to youtube is my favorite i run my whole youtube channel directly from my ps5 console @CRnocommentary on youtube all call of duty game play . but yeah go playstation 5 , xbox just aint it gamepass is cool but most people are on playstation friend wise

Bought in September of this year. Madden would freeze somewhat regularly so I contacted Sony about a possible refund for just the game. Black Ops 6 would occasdionally freeze but it wasn't a big deal. Everything else ran great. Sony had me wipe the cache and rebuild the database which didn't help, they had me restore the console storage which didn't help and then had me do a full manufacturer default. It made the problems infinitely worse. All of my games freeze and crash now a few minutes after opening them. Now I'm sending it off to Sony because they said its something with the console itself and it needs to be repaired. Never got my refund for Madden, 2 of the 4 reps I spoke to were just flat out rude. So yeah, busted console after 3 months of limited play and over $200 in games I can't even play plus one defective game that I won't be reimbursed for. Maybe look into Xbox, wish I had and still may.
