Yes, it improved on every aspect of the ps4. Load times were non-existent, graphics upgrade was good enough, the exclusives were always great. I like a dedicated box for gaming, not that I don't play pc games as well, it's just easier to pick up and go on a console especiallywith rest mode..

I got it a few months after it released, which is how long it took to find one, and at the time i was deciding between building a new PC or getting a PS5 and at the time the PS5 was way cheaper due to GPUs being ridiculously priced. I thought it was a great price for what you got and it's a solid system. I use it on average once every other day and has given me no issues.

It was a solid console in every aspect to me. My one complaint is as much as I like the controllers they suffer from stick drift and I have gone through 4 controllers so far. Same goes for every one of my friends so it's awful.

Those are all pretty good reasons.

My experience with all of it was quite a bit different, for reasons that were mostly out of my control, and it affected my overall impression.

It's good to know that some people were/are happy with it though.
