    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.

    I upgraded from the 1st gen OG launch day ps5 and I love it, definitely faster loading than the OG ps5. Though my other 5 is still running fine, this one is definitely an upgrade. I wanted the better graphics capability and ray tracing, games are even more beautiful. I'm fortunate to be able to upgrade

    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.

    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.

    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 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.

    I havent had a playstation for years so i dotn know anythign abiut ps5, but this is truly worth buying, specially if you play call of duty. i play 4k and 120 fps on my tv and it works perfectly. Altho i would really liked it came at least with the stand included, or the disc reader but well at lwast it came with more storage thats why im giving it 5 stars

    Definitely a noticeable upgrade from the PS5, especially with the PSSR update. The price has gotten ridiculous for consoles, but with the PS6 seemingly being delayed for a few years, I decided to upgrade from my PS5. The horizontal "stand" is a joke. 2 cheap clips that cause the console to still wobble. For the price, Sony should be ashamed. The stand that came with the PS5 was much better. The clips work well enough, but what this cost we deserved better. Otherwise I'm happy with it overall.

    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

    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.

    Best Gaming Console

    This is hands down the best gaming console you can get today. Yes, it’s pricey compared to other options, but it delivers on its promises. It’s also rumored to be the unofficial console of choice for the upcoming highly anticipated GTA VI. Why is that exciting? PlayStation’s Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) is getting an update soon this year just before some other heavy hitter games. PSSR has been great, delivering what consoles of this generation have promised but failed to do: 4K gaming with high frame rates consistently. It’s genuinely impressive how well the AI in PSSR works to deliver outstanding detail. And this is coming from a former Xbox fanboy. The Series X didn’t excite me anymore and I felt like Sony was cooking up something good with the PS5 Pro. I’m definitely satisfied. Can’t wait for PSSR to release as it’s said to upgrade older games as well and improve further on clarity and boost frame rates. This year will be amazing for console gaming.

    I'm a gamer, I've owned a PS1, a PS2, a PS4 and a PS5, now I'm glad to say that I own the PS5 pro, I've also owned a PS4 pro. The PS5 pro is amazing. It's faster, better graphics, everything loads quickly. Thank you.

    Some people think it’s not worth getting since it was originally a minimal upgrade from non pro model. Now that PSSR2 is out, this thing blows the base model out of the water. The graphics increase for games like Space Marine 2 or Crimson Desert are amazing. I upgraded from the original PS5. The increased storage space alone is worth it given the price of NVME drives these days. Also paired with PSVR2, playing No Man’s Sky with PSSR2 enabled is so cool.

    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

    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.

    I previously broke my 2020 Ps5 and ended up getting the ps5 pro, honestly it has a bunch of storage I can have multiple games installed at once which is very nice. It's slimmer and definitely a lot less heavier!
