Thanks to the Raru team for securing me a PS5.
This was a painless buying process, with fast shipping, keep it up.

Funny

Reviewed by C M on Nov 25, 2020

I find it funny that Raru only post reviews they can get behind and answer, else the rest are "dismissed" after I have noticed other online "gaming" sites are providing a better service than you guys, tis time to say GOODBYE...

An honest PS5 review

Reviewed by Kevin B on Nov 25, 2020

So I have had my PS5 for about a week now and here are my feelings.

The looks:
The PS5 console itself is a chonky piece of hardware, an absolute unit. The largest console I have ever owned. This device will stand out in most living rooms. Sony was obviously going for a bold statement here. I also feel that form follow function here as the curved "wings" prevent the air intakes from getting blocked. Just be prepared to have space available for this console. The device is also very quiet compared to the PS4 Pro.

The controller:
This is the best Sony controller to date. It is slightly larger than the PS4 DualShock and slightly heavier. It also has haptic feedback and adaptive triggers that, while not transformative to the gaming experience, adds some great tactile feedback to games that support it. Also, USB-C FINALLY!

The UI:
This can be summed up in one word. Elegant. There will be improvements as the patches roll out, but the UI and UX is perfectly functional at launch.

The games:
While there are not many games that are really 100% exclusive to the console yet, the Spider-Man games running the PS5 versions are fluid at 60FPS but you can only have Ray-Tracing enabled at the 30FPS mode. I think we will in time see some amazing 1st part Sony games just like we did for the last generation. But for now, if you missed out on the launch drops of the consoles, you are not really missing out. So there is really no need to be leaving rude reviews for Raru like some of the guys below this.

All in all, this is a true "next-gen" console that is a must get within the next 6 months to a year due to the "skinny" launch line up of games. The controller is a big improvement and the looks of the device itself are striking. I see this console hitting its stride with a few more next-gen exclusives landing next year.

No Updates on Allocation

Reviewed by Kyle H on Nov 22, 2020

I received no updates on Allocation for 1st batch and 2nd batch.... Terrible service from Raru as usual... Those who you call speak without passion to their customers, believe they can control the narrative all because they have no recording system for calls and therefor can speak to customers any how.

imagine we could actually buy it..

When can we expect the second batch of preorders to be shipped and delivered?

Reviewed by Willem G on Nov 16, 2020

I was under the impression the second batch of preorder stock would start shipping around mid-December.

However, my order history suggests that the unit may only ship on 31 December; when will you be able to provide some clarity?

Raru Admin Note:

The 31 Dec. is a place holder date. The hope is that the stock will come in before then, but if there are delays we will let customers know.

So excited

Second Allocation

Reviewed by Elmo F on Nov 13, 2020

How can you make the Pre Order Live at 8:00am - I then added the console to my Cart went immediately to Checkout but then the allocation was sold out in less than a minute how's this possible? Now I have to wait again this is ridiculous man.

Raru Admin Note: The second drop pre-order allocation sold out in about a minute due to overwhelming demand. The next drop is expected early 2021. We will advise once we get more info regarding when those pre-orders can go live again.

At this point, I think it's safe to assume there will not be a second allocation before release

Reviewed by Joshua C on Oct 23, 2020

It's nearing the release date, there is absolutely no way that there will be a second wave of pre-orders before the console releases.

I guess I'll be contending for a console on release day.
