    I’ve had my PS5 for a bit now and it’s been an incredible upgrade. The performance is super smooth, load times are insanely fast, and the graphics are on another level compared to older consoles. Games run beautifully and everything feels more responsive.

    If you mainly play Playstation and you want to get the best possible graphics and performance, then this is for you. It's not an alternative to a powerful PC, and you shouldn't think of it like that. The PS5 games look great, and the boost to older games is also welcome. The 2tb SSD is nice to have, since modern games are only getting bigger. It would have been nice if you didn't have to pay for a stand and a disc drive, but what can you do. Overall, a very good console.

    I wasn't sure initially if I had made the right decision in upgrading to the pro but once I started playing the PS5 pro enhanced games it is noticeably better in terms of picture quality, frame rates and load times. It's an excellent piece of hardware if you're a PlayStation fan.

    ​I have been a loyal Xbox user for as long as I can remember, but I’ve had my eye on a PlayStation for a while now. After years of wanting one, I finally decided to pull the trigger and picked it up from Best Buy. Honestly, I couldn't be happier with the decision. ​The Experience: Coming from the Xbox ecosystem, I wasn't sure how the transition would feel, but this is a truly great product. The hardware feels premium and the setup process was incredibly smooth. One of the biggest standouts for me has been the DualSense controller; the haptic feedback is a complete game-changer and feels very different from what I’m used to. ​Why I Bought It: I’ve always loved my Xbox, but I kept feeling like I was missing out on the incredible library of PlayStation exclusives. Now that I finally have one sitting on my shelf, I can see what all the hype is about. The graphics are stunning, the UI is snappy, and it runs so quietly. ​Final Verdict: If you’ve been a long-time Xbox owner like me and are on the fence about switching or adding a second console to your setup, do it! It’s a fantastic piece of tech that I wish I’d bought sooner. Big thanks to Best Buy for making the purchase and pickup process so easy.

    It was easy to transfer all PS4 data to the PS5 - the interface is clean and the PS5 is so much nicer: faster, better menu layout, crisp graphics, etc. Getting the PS5 pro was the way to go - its worth the higher price tag. Buying was easy too. I liked the whole experience and came back to order the charger stand and headset that go with.

    Coming from the launch edition console i don’t really notice a difference in performance i only upgraded cause of the price and needed more memory. I can say its quieter and it doesn’t come with a disc drive sold separately and sony doesn't have any plates yet for it and the ones they do have are sold out at the time

    I bought the Sony PlayStation 5, and honestly it has been one of the best purchases we’ve made. It works incredibly well — it’s fast, the graphics are amazing, and everything runs very smoothly. Beyond the technology, what I value the most is that it has helped us spend more quality time together as a family. We’ve been able to play together with my daughter and my wife, and it has become a really fun way to share time at home. I definitely recommend it. It’s an excellent console and a great option if you also want to create fun family moments.

    Ps5 pro the real truth

    I bought this as I have been a playstation gamer since the original. I've had all the consoles since launch. This to me is sonys greatest console ever. However the price is very high and also you need to buy the disc drive which is a further £100. Totaling $900 for console and disc drive. To the average consumer that is a huge chunk of money. You also have to have a newer TV with all the bells and whistles on it. Ie vrr. 120htz. 4k.hdr.etc. But once you have all that the difference is mind blowing in games that have been ps5 pro enhanced. Alan wake 2 is absolutely incredible. The details and the ray tracing effects are on another level. Every game so far I have replayed is outstanding in some sort of way. The ps5 pro also enhances certain ps4 games which is fantastic. Giving your old ps4 games a new lease of life. Would I recommend this product. Absolutely. But it is expensive. Very offer 12 months buy now pay later which is a lot less stressful on the wallet. If you are feeling on the fence over this product. Belive me when I say it is an outstanding piece of technology. This is the future of gaming.

    This is a great product. It does what it says it would do. It is overall a better product than the original ps5 The features are great like pssr and advanced ray tracing and the optimized console performance creates higher and more consistent silky smooth frame rates for the games I've been playing

    Great performance. Allows higher graphical fidelity at the same frame rates than the standard PS5. It also hits 120fps in more games.

    Bought the PS5 Pro for “responsible adult reasons” and wow… huge mistake for my free time. Setup was easy, load times are basically gone, and everything looks ridiculously good. Games run so smooth it feels unfair. If you enjoy productivity and sleep, maybe skip it. Otherwise, highly recommend.

    Next-Gen Powerhouse That Delivers

    The PS5 is everything I hoped for in a next-gen console. Lightning-fast load times thanks to the SSD, stunning 4K graphics with ray tracing, and the DualSense controller is a genuine game-changer—haptic feedback and adaptive triggers make gameplay feel immersive in a way I didn’t expect. It’s quiet, sleek, and surprisingly easy to set up. I’ve been playing titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and the performance is buttery smooth. Backward compatibility with PS4 games is a huge plus, and the UI feels intuitive and snappy.

    Overall system runs smoother than base PS5. super quiet noticeable bump to graphics. Can’t wait to see how things go once developers have more time with the console. Extra storage is very welcome. Added my previous WD black drive from my launch ps5 for a total of 3rb of space. Very happy with pro.

    Best Playstation Ever Made

    If you have a top tier television or monitor-highly reccomend (120hz) capability with VRR and HDR OLED or QLED and know how to tweak advanced settings to enhance picture this thing is a total beast! Monster Hunter Wilds is fantastic and Horizon remastered is one of the best looking games I’ve ever seen running on this thing. Disc drive took all of 5 min to install and I added another 2TB of SSD memory that was super easy to uprade for a total of 4TB. You will absolutely notice a difference in your games and load times. It’s up to you if it’s worth the asking price but you are hands down getting the closest thing to a gaming pc the console players have ever had and don’t have to spend hours tweaking settings and options to get your games to run. I am absolutely thrilled with this purchase and was worth it to ensure fames will look best on this for next 5-6 years until the new gen starts.

    2tb's of storage, the new PSSR feature and the enhancements for certain games (FF7 Rebirth) was the biggest selling point for me. I think Sony really outdid themselves with this console and it's performance. My biggest gripe with the console isn't about performance or any sort of hardware issue. It's the fact it doesn't come with a disc drive, that is probably everyones big issue. I do believe this is more or so for the enthusiast sony gamer or for anyone who wants to make the most out of their display that supports hdmi 2.1 and can really take advantage of the 120hz and uncapped frame modes some of these games can offer now. But truthfully, I really do enjoy this console.

    PS5 Pro is worth the upgrade, even if you disagree

    Gave my nephew my old ps5 as a gift and I upgraded to the ps5 pro, and lets say its worth the upgrade. God of War Ragnarok and other ps5 pro enhanced games feel like PC upgrades. One thing to keep in mind not all PS4 or PS5 games have pro enhanced patches yet so some games will still run as they did before. I'm the type of person that pays attention to the tiny details and want to get the best out of my Alienware monitor which this ps5 pro does. I'm definitely happy with my purchase. Comes with 2 TB which is much needed since a lot of games take up a lot of space.

    Giant leap for previous gen gamers

    Great system. Beyond happy with this purchase after waiting some time to jump from the PS4 to the PS5 Pro. Anyone in the same boat as myself that has been waiting to upgrade systems, this one is a definite leap in quality from one generation to the next. Purchasing the optical drive is a must for anyone who really does want to get the most out of the system and enjoy not only games, but uncompressed 4K UHD tv and movies. While it is a bummer that PS3 games are still not available (MGS4), there is plenty to enjoy with such a large library all ready available. With a possible price hike due to ram shortages, among other things, if you're on the fence about getting the system I say do it now.
