items: items 1: content: Wow! First time owning a Playstation. After having spent sometime at Best Buy talking over it with the very knowledge staff. I applied for a Best Buy credit card and was granted credit right there on the spot! I used the card to not only purchase my new PS 5, I also got a great deal on a home theater sound system to complement and enhance my gaming experience.
If you haven't had the Playstation experience, and not sure if you want to, I can say as a gamer from the 80's and this being my first time owning a Playstation I am so impressed and couldn't be happier!
Easy to set up and navigate through its good to familiarize yourself with the menu, settings and controller options. Most of these have easy to follow in-game tutorials and support.
The DualSense Wireless Controller fits nicely in your hands and has many features, (I played through the Astro's PLAYROOM tutorial, that was pre-installed with my PS5 console) Super fun and easy to interact with, you'll be surprised and amazed by the many functions of this controller designed to give you the ultimate gaming experience!
The PS5 Console looks amazing. Out of the box it has white detachable face plates which can be swapped out for different designs and colors, (I changed mine to Black)
Most come with the standard features and products like power cords, USB cables. (Check your box for details) Knowing how to take on and off the face plate will help with cleaning and general maintenance.
I have my PS5 Horizontal in a dust free area, and it looks great and fits right in. For my first gaming experience I chose the game Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered for the PS5. Playing this game on an Olde screen really puts you into another world. You can tell a lot of care went into the game, as some of the details are stunning. I often stop just to watch the sunset. With the controller rumbling and pushing out sound effects from the game just puts you even deeper into this beautiful colored and vibrant world.
But no matter the experience you're looking for Im sure you'll find it here with the PS5 Slim Console! Enjoy the future of Gaming!

items 2: content: After buying the PS5 and replacing my PS4 I only have good things to say about my purchase. I’ll start with the loading speeds. after playing on the PS5 i realized the drastic change in loading speeds as i realized loading screens were almost non existent. Not just in games but booting them up is so much faster than on a PS4. The graphics and visuals are beautiful making any game you play on a PS5 run smoothly and beautifully as if you are watching movies. Lastly the controller haptic feedback which is one of the biggest reasons why i bought this console. The controllers are way more immersive in mainly shooter games as there is resistance in the triggers that imitate as if you were actually pulling a trigger from an actual gun. Another thing is the recoil in the triggers. I don’t know how they were able to do this but now when you hold down the controller triggers they vibrate and imitate recoil to make it feel more real and immersive. Now of course if you do not like the feeling of the feedback you can turn this setting off. But I could not help but smile the whole time as I was playing the PS5 and I was just amazed at the technology and the huge leap in Playstation. If you have the money i would 100% recommend picking yourself up a PS5 from your local best buy.

items 3: content: After not being able to get a PS5 in 2020 due to buying a (at the time) $1,700 dollar PC gaming rig. The way my friends spoke about it was basically saying that the PS5 was a pipe dream. So I finally got one in the beginning of May to play God of War Ragnarok, Spiderman Miles Morales, Gran Turismo and Spiderman 2. After installing and setting it up it is 100% worth the hype and praise for a 500 dollar console. It runs beautifully at 60fps on all of my games I purchased, and even on games like NBA 2K and Madden having those frames and performance boosts can make or break your competitive games.
What I also love the most about it is 2 things, one is having a optional security passcode for each time you turn on your PS5 and logging in. Even though I use it only in my house it helps when uninvited guests come over and try to play your console without permission. And the 2nd thing is that the gameplay capture system on board has been greatly improved from the PS4. You can now on the fly record or snap clips from up to a 1 hour ago, and now you can snap as little as 10 seconds, to 15, 30, 1 minute, 5, and then 10 minutes and beyond. The footage is also crystal clear surprisingly at 1080P 60FPS with your choice of upping to 1440P or 4K. Huge step up from the PS4 as a content creator, YouTuber, or Streamer.
I also love the new PS5 controller! It is such a step up from the PS4 controller that I loved and they made improvements. Firstly the battery lasts 3 to 4 times longer than the PS4 controller battery, has an onboard mic in the controller and toggle mute button that I didn't even find out until a couple nights ago. And it also features an almost engraved Playstation button pattern for the controller shell, and has adaptive triggers that will enhance gameplay and adjust depending on the game you're playing.
I've also purchased 3 PS5 Dualsense Edge Pro controllers for my games I play competitively on console and each controller I can set up to my exact liking and have up to 4 profiles on each. Just simply plug in run the software update and you're good to go. Will come in handy when I have friends over and we fire up fighting games or sports games. And the best part, is how it captures the PS3 era with specific games playing a theme to it on the home screen when you hover over your game.
Overall, it is a great console and makes me wish I could've gotten it sooner before I switched to PC gaming. I always been a PlayStation kid since the original Sony PlayStation, all the way up to the PlayStation 5. And each console has not let me down. I genuinely feel like a kid again unboxing my new PlayStation for the first time. And I'm already loving the exclusives that PlayStation has to offer along with recommended modern titles like God of War and Need For Speed. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to save New York from Rhino and Sandman with Peter Parker and Miles Morales!

items 4: content: Playstation cares about the user experience.
In the Ps4 and Ps3 era, the controller microhones and touchpads were gimmicks. But not any more.
Playing Returnal with my Ps5 Pro controller, the onboard speaker actually does a lot for immersion!
They've got it down.
It turns on my Sony TV when I turn it on, and turns off when my tv turns off. My TCL doesn't do that.
The headphone jack works great, even though it shuts off the speakerss on the TV, that's actually a benefit, because it's rare that you would want both and my wife can use it with no hassle.
PS Plus is as good as Gamepass ever was now.
Tons of PS1, PS2 and PS3/4 titles that you can download immediately or stream instantly.
I can be nostalgic at the drop of a dime and I love it.
Watching YouTube on my TV with headphones through the controller allows me to watch quietly with a big setup and mostly wirelessly.
The haptic controllers are a really cool experience and are fun sometimes even if not all the time!
Sony is more compatible with USB microphones that Xbox and you can just plug in some headphones that have a microphone without complicated work arounds like Xbox.
It HDMI 2.1 for high refresh rates and resolutions, even if not customizable like a PC, the default settings often just work best.
Overall, very pleased with mine.
I was going to wait and upgrade to the Pro, but I haven't noticed any reason to do so. I'm a pretty discerning user, as I love high resolution and frame rates. So that's saying a lot!
I also was doing some upgrades to my NAS (hard drive storage unit) and ordered an extra SSD.
Well well well. My Xbox can't use that for extra storage, but my Sony Can!
I DO tend to play my Xbox more because it has Roboquest. And that is really the only reason. I prefer the experience of my PS5 in almost every way.

items 5: content: Ordered this around the black Friday week. Great playing so far.
The slim has a little bit of extra internal ssd storage over the original which many will appreciate. Great looking console vs competition in my opinion and I've warmed to the futuristic styling of the console. No cheap looks here.
Great looking visuals from the games I've purchased for it (Helldivers 2, LOU remake). Very smooth with my tv and the provided HDMI cable. Make sure to use this cable or a suitable hdmi version equivalent (2.1 or higher)
The controller steps up from the PS4 with more dimensions to the haptic feedback and a more weighty feel. A USB C charge port means the controller can be charged easily from other device chargers. The provided charging cable is a little short to reach where you will likely be sitting.
I went for the disk version as am still attached to some of the PS4 console games I have on disk. I find it runs nice and quiet. Blu ray movies playback nicely. If you're digital only then you can save a bit more in terms of money and space by getting the digital version.
Overall a great continuation of the console line.

items 6: content: I recently upgraded from my PS4, and I'm really glad I did. Of games that were just PS5. Most of the games that are on the market right now. I already own for the PS4. So I figured why bother. But Best buy gave me a good credit deal during the holidays and I bought this and a TV. I'm having a blast with the PS5 even though I'm playing some of the same games. I'm replaying Ghost of Tsushima from the start after I've already beaten it on the PS4. It's even more beautiful. I'm playing God of war Ragnarok which is awesome. The haptic feedback controllers alone are worth the price of admission. I really enjoy the feedback I get in the R2/L2 buttons on my racing games. Bought a couple new games, they kind of suck, but I'm still glad I upgraded. I just hope they start making some good original games again. Seems like covid killed that. The graphics are excellent. I PC gamed for years until the PS3, which was a step down, but my son became old enough to play games. The PS4 has pretty good graphics. But this PS5 is the first time I've seen really strong graphics on a console. It looks great, especially on a Sony OLED TV.

items 7: content: this gaming console I bought as a gift for my partner. It came as a bundle, that being the one terabyte PlayStation, two controllers in which one was white and one was camo gray, As well as the controller stand/charger. The price at the time of purchase, was of the lowest price and the most amount of objects. The limited edition camouflage controller is really cool, as haptic motors are very superior to that of a traditional vibration motor. I also love that the controllers come with built-in microphones. The operating system of this PlayStation is well thought out, and is a nice addition to my entertainment at my house. I enjoy playing Sims four, call of duty, Black ops six, Minecraft, etc. I would highly recommend BJ's for this deal next Christmas, as grand theft auto six is coming out soon and a PlayStation five is a must have for that game.

items 8: content: I panic bought this on the cyber Monday sale and it only took 4 days to get to my house in perfect condition!!
It turns out my PS4 that I thought died just needed to be brought to my local electronics fixer for a simple fix.
But hey, I love this one as much as my 4 (a bit more actually) so yay for finally getting the 5 after all this time, I really love how fast it is and especially how many ps4 games are backwards compatible with it, I got the disc version and it seems to work perfect. Also the duelshock controller is such an upgrade compared to the PS4 controller!!
One thing I truly don't like about this is how white it is, I know it's superficial but the og black just looked better for the previous models, I already have plans and items in my Amazon cart to reshell both the controller and the console itself, so that'll be fun.
This was also my first time using BestBuy online, (usually I just go there, but again panic lol) it was awesome with a very quick delivery and no problems with the box so thanks for that!!

items 9: content: The PlayStation 5 exceeded all my expectations. The graphics quality, system speed, and immersive experience are absolutely incredible. The DualSense controller brings games to life with its haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. Playing on this console truly feels like next-gen gaming.
My shopping experience with Best Buy was also outstanding. I ordered online and picked it up in-store. The process was fast, well-organized, and the staff was super friendly. The PS5 was ready for pickup even earlier than expected and in perfect condition.
Thank you, Best Buy, for making everything so easy! I highly recommend both the console and buying it from here

items 10: content: We got our avid PS4 player son this for his birthday. It's so worth upgrading from the PS4. All of his PS4 games transferred effortlessly to his PS5 via his PlayStation account.
No more messing /investing into headsets. Microphone built into the controller!
It was between this and a gaming PC that he wanted. And I wasn't financially ready to go the pc route. And thank God I didn't. An inexpensive Amazon purchases of a wireless keyboard and mouse work with the PS5!
They're always on point with the price in comparison to other stores. I won't buy anywhere else because I have to have the geek squad protection which comes in clutch. Especially with controllers and notorious drift issues. Easy peasy getting replacements.

items 11: content: The PS5 is a fantastic gaming console. The graphics are sharp, and the fast load times make a big difference in gameplay. The new controller feels great, with cool features like adaptive triggers and haptic feedback that add to the experience. The console itself is pretty big but has a sleek, modern design. It runs quietly and smoothly, even with high-performance games. Backward compatibility with most PS4 games is a plus. While it’s pricey and hard to find, the overall performance makes it worth the investment for serious gamers or anyone wanting a top-notch entertainment system.
