    As someone who wasn't the biggest fan of this console generation, the PS5 Pro excited me. I felt "Finally, a true console worth of the "next-gen" promise...and then I played games with it. Outside of the design, which, lacks a disc drive, and doesn't come with a stand, this is largely a PS5. Sure, the internals are a little different, but you set it up the same, you launch your games the same...the difference is in how the games play and let me tell you...there's a difference, just not the difference I was looking for. The original selling point was no longer choosing between performance and graphic quality...but I feel like with the PS5 Pro there are even more choices. Developers have used the power of the PS5 pro, and PSSR, Playstations Ai upscaling method, to find new ways to get you to play 30 fps...and it doesn't look good enough to justify the 30 fps. ..and it's not a stable 30 FPS!! This is what we pay MORE for, sans a 4k Blu-ray drive? Moving past the console itself, I noticed when I purchased it, certain PS5 Pro-enhanced games now found themselves back up to full price. Sure...that's not the console's fault...but that is apart of the experience of getting the console, and it wasn't a good experience. No one piece of software screamed "THIS is why you bought a PS5 Pro!" and I get it, you can't necessarily develop a game specifically for the PS5 Pro, it's not the base model, it's not the top seller, it's a mid-gen upgrade for a small percentage of the overall user base...but if there's no software to justify the console, there's definitely no justification for a price increase with missing features (the disc drive). Last gen I purchased both mid-gen consoles and was satisfied with both of the purchases. This gen I'm reminded that I have a PC, and with the increased cost of game production, eventually all these games will have to land on PC where developers can truly push things to another space. Maybe going forward games are made with the PS5 Pro in mind, developers getting a better understanding o the benefits of PSSR, but right now? This ain't it.

    I love it! Definitely an improvement from the original. Also like the fact that it comes with 2 tb of internal storage. The design in my opinion is an improvement as well. The only downside for me was having to purchase the disc drive separately. For as much as it costs I feel like it should have been included. All in all I recommend it if you can afford the premium price.

    The PlayStation 5 Pro is seriously impressive. Games look incredible in 4K and run super smooth, even the more demanding ones. Load times are almost nonexistent, and the graphics upgrade is easy to notice. The DualSense controller still feels amazing with the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. Overall, it’s been an awesome upgrade and a great experience so far.

    The pro is definitely better, but must have the correct TV to maximize the Consoles capabilities. The console does not seem to work as hard even when I am using games on disc. The styling is nice is, is a little bigger than the PS5 slim model but smaller than the launch model. If you have a disc drive attached you do not necessarily need the stand, but I have one and prefer that because of the rubber feet. I am very happy with the console besides the price, but you have to pay to play.

    Better Framerates & Graphics, Noticeably Better

    Coming from a Xbox Series X My girlfriend bought me the PlayStation Pro for Christmas Not wanting to disappoint her I started to get a feel for it. Here are my remarks after playing on it for almost a month (keep in mind that I have an LG 4K Oled 120hz TV) I’m a very FPS (First Person Shooter) gamer I play games such as Battlefield 6, Call of Duty, and The Finals to say the least. I’ve noticed that I’m getting more consistent high-framerates on the PlayStation Pro than the Xbox Series X (mind you I have the galaxy 2Tb edition too) The PlayStation also has some PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) basically is AI powered to make imagines look better, very similar to AMD’s FSR Well that is expected to receive a major update soon (January - March) I myself am really excited to see what they have to make gaming more immersive….speaking about immersive, the PlayStation controller itself is a whole other can of worms. For instance, in Battlefield 6 you can feel your character’s footsteps! Walking, running, sliding and even vaulting over obstacles. And of course shooting, each gun has their own signature feedback. I personally thought this feature was strictly for PlayStation games but it seems like game developers are taking advantage of the controller’s potential. Final thoughts. I really found myself reaching for the PlayStation more than my Xbox…yeah I know the Xbox has a lot of games (all of my library is on there) But regardless the game son the PlayStation is so much better, can’t express how much of a literal game changer it is….pun intended. I would really recommend it!

    What needs to be said? Fantastic console and runs spectacularly, from graphics to capabilities it’s great and looks even better on a 4K TV. Highly recommend if you’re able spend the extra money and get a PRO, well worth it. Only downside is there is no disc drive.

    Turned in my PS5 for the PS5 Pro. Yeah, the onboard 2TB is really awesome, but so is GoW Ragnarök and The Last of us @ running at 60FPS. If money is not a worry, I'd advise anyone to jump in. Loads of AAA games coming between now and the next update cycle that will mostly all by Pro Enhanced. Lovin' it. BestBuy is awesome too. My pre-order had a broken seal when I went to pick it up and one of the staff found one with the seal intact.

    I love the slimmer form factor. Having the extra storage is great, especially with a 2TB Nvme ssd. Haven't seen it's true power yet. Maybe when Crimson Desert comes out!

    Great product not disappoint after a year. This product is more about the frame rate and pushing the graphical fidelity at 30 frames per second.

    A great performing system. If this version of the PS5 is for you, depends on factors like your budget, what your gaming priorities are and what kind of TV or Monitor you have. You won't get a generational leap in graphics and the lack of a disc drive is lame, but you will get more graphical options with optimized titles and plenty of ssd storage for games. Also, I assume future game releases will be able to take more advantage of this baby's extra horsepower.

    Awesome console, upgraded from the OG PS5 of 4 years old. I play Wukong on it and the graphics appear to be much smoother, clear and crisp using Sony's AI upscaling to boost games to 4K while maintaining a higher frame rate like Nvidia's DLSS. Some games might run at up to 120 frames per second, a much needed upgrade IMHO. WiFi 7 and 2TB SSD storage is a plus as well. I highly recommend the upgrade!

    Great Quality i picked up curbside and the ps5 was open box, fully functional and it even included a fortnite code for a bundle, everything looked brand new just no box, i highly suggest this if you dont care about a box and all you want is the console and save a bit of money
