Sony PlayStation 5 Pro Gaming Console
Imported from Japan. Keep your favourite games ready and waiting for you to jump in and play with 2TB of SSD storage built in. With the power of the PS5 Pro, compatible games can be played at 60fps, or up to 120fps, with Ray Tracing and AI enhanced 4K resolution using PSSR, all at the same time, on your 4K TV. The PS5 Pro console can play over 8,500 PS4 games. With the PS5 Pro version of the Game Boost feature, you can even enjoy faster and smoother frame rates in some of the PS4 and PS5 console’s greatest games. Turn on the Enhanced Image Quality for PS4 games feature to enable additional system post processing power that can improve the resolution for select PS4 games. Supports enhanced wireless internet capabilities with more usable bandwidth to increase transfer speeds with IEEE 802.11be and your compatible router, which means you can experience reduced latency and boosted stability when playing online. Custom integration of the PS5 Pro console's systems lets creators pull data from the SSD so quickly that they can design games in ways never before possible. Enjoy the crisp visual performance of games that natively support 1440p resolution. If you are playing a game with a higher native resolution (such as 4K), you may benefit from improved anti-aliasing through supersampling down to 1440p output. Compatible with your 8K display through HDMI 2.1 support, so you can play games that support 8K resolution output.

The upgrade from the base PS5 is good but not great. The CPU needed an upgrade to match the GPU. The extra 350mhz only makes a slight difference IMO. While the console does boost frames for non-Pro Enhanced games and gives a slight touch in image quality on PS4 games. Most games that are Pro Enhanced are suffering from teething issues. I believe the PSSR tech will shine through after a year or two when devs have some time with it. The menu navigation does seem smoother and the 2TB SSD is a nice addition to store more games. My console seems slightly louder than the base PS5, there's a light jet engine humm once you get a game loaded up, but it's nothing serious. If you got a headset on or got your soundbar cranked up you won't really notice it. Giving it 4 stars due ... MoreThe upgrade from the base PS5 is good but not great.

The extra $700 on performance isn't there, but we may see an improvement on that down the road. My suggestion IMO: Only purchase this console if you're an enthusiast or got money to burn. By the time the Pro may start to show benefits, we'll be half way towards PS6. Which you may as well keep your money aside for that.

I love seeing all the Xbox fan boys rate this 1 star. Xbox has gone 3rd party, because Xbox Series X is only capable of 900p 30fps. So every Microsoft Game Studios game will run best on a PS5, either 4k30 or 1164p60 on the base PS5, and 4k60 on the Pro. As Digital Foundry has proven the PS5Pro will run every game at 4k60 at a minimum, some games will have 4k60 with Ray Tracing. And for those with an 8k display there are 2 games confirmed to have 8k60 modes. You could not buy a PC for less than $2000 that would match PS5Pro’s performance. I can’t believe that the Pro is only $100 more than the 2TB Microsoft Series 30fps box. It’s insane how expensive the Series Lbox is and it can barely do 30fps at 900p resolution. The PS5 Pro is approximately 50x more powerful, and ... MoreI love seeing all the Xbox fan boys rate this 1 star. Xbox has gone 3rd party, because Xbox Series X is only capable of 900p 30fps.

If you are a parent and you don’t want your kid getting laughed at in school get them a PS5 Pro. Better games, better controller, better subscription service that doesn’t raise the price twice in 1 year and paywall the only decent feature behind a $400/year paywall and Microsoft has only released 1 game this entire year. So people with Gamepass have spent $400 on one game lol

The PS5 Pro is hands down one of the current-gen game consoles to own - with a hardware quality reputation (Sony) and a robust of library of titles, this thing is worth every penny if (keyword: IF) you can afford it. I have the base PS5 (which I will be giving away as a present for a family member) and I decided to splurge on this thing as an upgrade seeing I skipped on the PS4 Pro when it came out. I have noticed games loading faster, in some cases, it's instantaneous. Visual fidelity is a tad nicer although not much noticeable to the naked eye. It's internal cooling system has also been improved after watching a teardown on Youtube (iFixIt) so heat dissipation should also be improved from the previous model iteration.Walmart delivered my PS5 Pro just on time ... MoreThe PS5 Pro is hands down one of the current-gen game consoles to own - with a hardware quality reputation (Sony) and a robust of library of titles, this thing is worth every penny if (keyword: IF) you can afford it.

Overall, I am well satisfied with my purchase (despite the haters and nay-sayers) and I feel I am enjoying playing video games with more motivation.

I'm a huge fan of the original Playstation 5. The fast storage and dualsense controllers stood out as the biggest advancements to me. But if you have the latest and greatest tv and want to play the latest games with all the eye candy it is capable of, you are stuck with an annoyingly low fps. And if you want better fps, you're stuck with a lower resolution. And usually there is no balance to both. The pro was advertised to address those issues and from the games I have played so far, it delivers. As many have pointed out, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth plays dramatically better on the pro and other games also show an improvement. The improvements vary from game to game. I also appreciate the 2TB storage. I won't have to rush out and buy an additional ssd anytime soon. The ... MoreI'm a huge fan of the original Playstation 5.

I also appreciate the 2TB storage. I won't have to rush out and buy an additional ssd anytime soon. The only disappointment is the disc drive. Not because I had to pay extra for it. But because at the time of this review, the disc drive add on is sold out at all the major retailers. So if you have a physical game library like I do, the only way you can get one is by buying one from a scalper. Luckily, I bought a disc drive a month before the pro came out. If you have a physical PS5 library, I would wait until these get back in stock. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase, but this is not going to be for everyone. If you're a casual gamer and already have a PS5, I wouldn't recommend it. But if you have the money to spend and have a monitor or TV will all the bells and whistles, you won't be disappointed.
First of all, its expensive, too expensice for a console. However, I game on a 77 inch oled and sit about 8 feet away. Games like Final Fantasy Rebirth, Alan Wake 2, and Star Wars Outlaws were noticeably blurry to the eye on tbe regular ps5. Ot was like you were playing this high end system with nice graphics, but they ran out of juice for the resolution part. It was like playing the game through the bad lense at the eye doctor. Anyway, the ps5 pro fixed this with more horespower and pssr. Those games I mentioned, among others like Hogwarts Academy and Dragon age Veilguard look super sharp and crips. This not only makes it look like you booted up a high end pc, but it also adds depth and immersion. I feel like i see kore of the background and the worlds are more ... MoreFirst of all, its expensive, too expensice for a console. However, I game on a 77 inch oled and sit about 8 feet away.

Now, i you have a tv 55 inches or less and you sit 10 or more feet from your tv, this honestly might not be a good purchase for you. The change might be barely noticeable in that situation. Anyway, im still yet to play any game thet was 30 fps only on the vanilla ps5 or see one thst has added ray tracing, but im sure that will be good too.
Note: I play on LG G1 OLED with panel capable of 120hz and VRR.* The PS5 pro is everything that Sony built it up to be. Increased fidelity in higher frame rate modes with a little extra (PSSR) to boot. So far the games that I have tested (Horizon Forbidden West, Dragons Dogma 2, Hogwarts Legacy, Cyberpunk 2077, and Black Ops 6) all perfom better than they did on the regular PS5 and those games in the list that are optimized by the developers for PS5 Pro feels like I’m playing them for the first time again, the upgrade is that impressive. Dragons Dogma 2 which had the pro patch on release day of the PS5 Pro looks so good in performance mode and I am getting a stable 60 FPS median in Balanced mode with ray tracing effects on. Before on the PS5 original, i was getting ... MoreNote: I play on LG G1 OLED with panel capable of 120hz and VRR.* The PS5 pro is everything that Sony built it up to be.

Dragons Dogma 2 which had the pro patch on release day of the PS5 Pro looks so good in performance mode and I am getting a stable 60 FPS median in Balanced mode with ray tracing effects on. Before on the PS5 original, i was getting 30FPS with ray tracing on. To make things sweeter, PSSR brings out another level of detail in far ranging graphics this was noticable in Dragons Dogma 2 and Horizon Forbidden West more than the others. That all being said, a couple of the games i tested, Black Ops 6 and Cyberpunk 2077, which do not have PS5 Pro patches (cyberpunk might not ever have it) play just a bit better but if you werent OCD about graphics like I tend to be you probably wouldnt inow which console you were playing on if the images were side by side. This was very dissappointing as I believed the upgraded hardware itself could take these games to a new level of fidelity but it does not. At the time of writing this black ops 6 still gas not released its pro patch and my hope is that the unsightly graniness in 120hz mode might be solved by PSSR. I think we will see the true test of its capabilities in games further doen the road which will be produced to cater to the upgrade of the PS5 pro and not just patches for older titles, which is very exciting. All in all, the ps5 pro is worth the expense if you want the best graphics, which I did. I think it is worth noting again like i did in the beginning of this review that having a good TV set to really bring out the detail is important too. Especially one that unlocks the features of this console, VRR, 120hz so its potential can be realized. If you do not have a set that can atleast produce those outputs I would pass on the PS5 Pro.
There's a lot of hate surrounding this device. Most of it is unfounded. The price point is high, and the tangible stuff you get doesn't seem like its worth it. No disc drive, no upright stand, the horizontal feet are kind of cheap looking. Sony also missed the chance to have something major drop built for the PS5 Pro that would showcase its power. There that's the negatives out of the way. The games I've played have had varying amounts of improvements. The one thing I have to say about the games with enhancements. Think of a hamburger. If you add salt and pepper.. you enhanced it. But its still not a steak. If you keep that in mind you'll be a happier person. Each game is very different in the amount of improvements.

FC25 the lighting, gameplay and subtle details to players is a very noticeable improvement, Spider-Man Remastered... looks and plays amazing! Its more in line with the PC in the ray tracing and frame rate (in line not better than max settings don't at me) Call of Duty stable 120 frame rate, butter smooth.. there are others not so noticeable Dragon Age frame rate is definitely better but visuals are about the same. First Descendant the same. Stellar Blade VAST improvements. I could go on but you get the idea. Milage for each game will vary. That bein said, as more games come out built with the PS5 Pro in mind we should see a big uptick in improvements.Should you buy? IMO if you have an old PlayStation 5 or are in the market to get one, this would be the one to choose. If you have a slim or the Sony anniversary edition, I wouldn't make a special purchase right now, maybe wait for a sale. Of course its your money do what you like, just go into it with the right expectations and you'll be happier. I don't regret it and I'm enjoying it.
I bought this because i sold my Ps5 for a good amount and it was a no brainer to get the Pro. I do notice an improvement in graphics and faster UI menu navigation even while playing games. My PS5 was a bit sluggish on the menus, this Pro is not like that. I hope to see developers utilize the PS5 Pro more. One negative for me is that the inputs like HDMI, and USB seem to wiggle and are a bit loose. I noticed this when plugging in the connections and it was a bit concerning and made me question the longevity of the system. The very lacking packaging and without a vertical stand made me frown. Something seems off with how this PS5 Pro was presented by Sony, no Edge controller, just the OG ps5 one, no proprietary UI enhancements, just the regular ps5 menus, no PS5 Pro ... MoreI bought this because i sold my Ps5 for a good amount and it was a no brainer to get the Pro.

Nothing really screams out "look at me, i'm the PS5 Pro" and it kinda makes me feel like "why is this being sold?". Sony is really missing the opportunity to sell, attract, and retain their player base with the lacking effort here. Im not trying to sound picky but the fact is that even simple products like Gillette razors are marketed, advertised, and packaged eloquently, with awesome visual representations. The higher tier razors get better looks, better accessories, and better packaging. Those products are boasted and praised by the company and it doesn't just show in social media advertising , it shows by whats actually supplied and integrated into the products themselves so that the consumer feels like they're really using something great. Sony, you're not new to the consumer market, don't fall short on connecting with your customer base by not showcasing the benefits of this PS5 Pro, which is the top of the line console to date. Customers want to feel like they are valued and also that the product they purchased has value. Its not just about the technology, processor, plastic, in the box that matters, its also the unique and distinctive aspects that make your products stand out from the rest.! Don't get me wrong, i enjoy the PS5 Pro, its not a bad product, but i am going to call out what is blatantly obvious. Do better because you are better Sony!
Let me first start out by saying the Wi-Fi 7 is an absolute joke, I have Multi-Link operation enabled with my Wi-Fi 7 router and MLO enabled in the PS5 Pro settings. I am barely able to crack 300 Mbps on a 2.5 gbps isp connection. It’s also worth noting this is the only device that has this issue. All my other Wi-Fi seven devices are lightning fast and do not experience this issue. Hopefully it’s just a software bug. However, PlayStation network has a notorious reputation for being terribly slow. It’s unforgivable that they did not add a 2.5 gbe LAN port on a “Pro” console. Now let’s go to the games: while it does look slightly better, it’s not a significant improvement. For a device this powerful it’s actually downright insulting. They capped the HDMI port to 32 GB ... MoreLet me first start out by saying the Wi-Fi 7 is an absolute joke, I have Multi-Link operation enabled with my Wi-Fi 7 router and MLO enabled in the PS5 Pro settings.

Now let’s go to the games: while it does look slightly better, it’s not a significant improvement. For a device this powerful it’s actually downright insulting. They capped the HDMI port to 32 GB per second like they did with the base PS5. That means if you have frame rates higher than 60, you will be downgraded from RGB to YUV422 color space. There was no excuse to not put a full bandwidth 48 GB HDMI 2.1a port on this system. I will admit that the ray tracing does look better, but RTX is just the biggest gimmick ever, I would much rather have higher resolution and faster frame rates. The only time Ray tracing add something is in PC gaming where you have a huge jump computing power. I will maintain my position on consoles it’s an absolute joke feature. I would not recommend the PS5 Pro as of right now. The base PS5 is plenty good enough and it’s less expensive. If you want a significant jump, get a PC.
Getting a PS5 Pro is a decision that I do not regret. It has already been a transformative experience by providing substantially better graphics (details, resolution, etc) while also delivering better framerates than before. There are already roughly 100+ games that are either Pro enhanced or arriving shortly. In addition, the system can boost image clarity for all PS4 titles, and the automatic boost mode essentially ensures that any game you throw at it will perform better. Playing games with dynamic reaolution are startlingly different/improved thanks to the Pro’s significantly better GPU. This console simply csn’t be beat for the price, especially when compared to PC. A comparable PC with similar specs is easily twice as much in price as the PS5 Pro (even more ... MoreGetting a PS5 Pro is a decision that I do not regret.

A comparable PC with similar specs is easily twice as much in price as the PS5 Pro (even more expensive for prebuilt PCs), plus PC gaming is filled with rampant cheaters, buggy/bad game ports, and you have to deal with the cancer of Windows OS. Save yourself a giant headache and get a PS5 Pro instead.
