    The PS5 Pro delivers faster performance, sharper visuals, and smoother gameplay compared to the standard model. Games run beautifully in 4K with improved ray tracing, and load times are nearly instant. It’s more expensive, but if you want the best PlayStation experience available, this is it.

    I love the new PlayStation five it’s super fast to start up, everything loads quickly and has so much storage like I have all my games and still have so much storage left over. Also, the controller battery life lasts so much longer. my games look so much more clear and crisp compared to when I was playing on my PS4. i’m so happy with this new system and I’m sure anybody who gets it will be to.

    Worth it.The PS5 Pro is an outstanding upgrade for gamers seeking top-tier performance and visuals. The improved hardware delivers noticeably smoother gameplay and stunning 4K graphics with enhanced ray tracing, making games feel more immersive than ever. Load times are practically nonexistent thanks to the super-fast SSD, and the console runs surprisingly quiet even during intense gaming sessions. While the price may feel steep, the overall quality and future-proof features make it a worthwhile investment for dedicated gamers. Highly recommended for anyone ready to elevate their gaming experience!

    I've had a PS5 since they launched and decided it was time to upgrade because of the black friday sale that was going. I was able to trade in my original PS5 for almost what i originally paid for it and then got $100 off the PS5 Pro. Based on that it was 100% worth the upgrade for me. It downloads games much faster, the remote gaming from the portal os smoother, and it seems to run cooler. Graphics might be better and crisper but its hard to tell, and I am using an Alienware gaming monitor with it. The big difference is holding the higher frame rate while playing. Does it all add up to the cost of the Pro and then the additional cost of the disc drive without any discounts or trade in deals? For me it doesn't which is why I only gave it 4 stars. The slim would have sufficed if I was purchasing for the first time and a disc drive should be standard on the Pro at the current cost.

    5 Stars – A Next-Level Gaming Experience! The PS5 Pro is everything I hoped for and more. Lightning-fast performance, stunning visuals, and incredibly smooth gameplay take console gaming to the next level. Games load almost instantly, and the upgraded graphics make every detail pop, especially on a 4K screen. The system stays cool and quiet even during intense sessions. Sony really outdid themselves—this feels like the future of gaming. Highly recommend to any serious gamer!

    I purchased this in anticipation of GTA 6. I already had a launch PS5, so i was skeptical of the improvements this sustem could make. The upgrade from ps4 to ps4 pro was pretty clear, and this didnt wow me from the presentation to purchase day one. Well, ghost of yotei has released and the ray tracing pro setting using the ps5 pro’s PSSR upscaler is a game changer. I switched back from native 4k that runs 30fps, to the pro raytracing that AI upscales to 4k and runs 60fps witb ray tracing. Even in the smallest details I cannot tell a difference its not native 4k. Plus running 60 fps with the raytracing, its a truly incredible machine!

    Excellent. Very fast system with huge storage. You definitely notice a difference (I had my old ps5 running side by side as a comparison). I only wanted to play on this one after that. I did end up getting a disc drive and stand which unfortunately dont come with it. The system is physically more streamlined than the original. It looks really nice. I definitely recommend it.

    Amazing for large 4k VRR displays

    If you have a large 4k VRR TV you will appreciate this console a lot. The picture quality is amazing with supported games, standouts are all the Spiderman games and Horizon. Other games with un-capped frame rate options benefit greatly like Elden Ring, allowing you to run it in its quality mode at much higher fps. However, if you have a 48in 4k TV, or a 1080p TV and just want a console, I would go with the standard PS5, as it will be harder to distinguish the visual upgrades. There are some games that use better fidelity effects with the improved hardware, but most of what this console is about is delivering a sharper image with better performance.

    I recently upgraded to the PS5 Pro, and it has completely blown me away. The performance leap is immediately noticeable – games load lightning fast, and the upgraded visuals make every detail pop. I tested it with a 4K HDR TV, and the combination of ray tracing, smoother frame rates, and enhanced resolution makes games feel like an entirely new experience. What I also love is how quiet the system runs, even during demanding sessions. The DualSense controller’s haptics feel more immersive than ever, and the console still manages to keep that sleek, futuristic look. Backward compatibility means my PS5 library instantly benefits from the Pro’s power, which is a huge bonus. If you’re on the fence, the PS5 Pro is absolutely worth it. It’s not just an upgrade—it feels like the way these games were always meant to be played.

    The PS5 Pro is awesome. Games look way better and run super smooth, especially in 4K. It loads really fast, and I noticed it’s quieter than the regular PS5. Everything feels more powerful, and it makes playing games even more fun. If you’re into gaming and want the best experience, the PS5 Pro is totally worth it.

    The PS5 Pro is easily Sony’s most powerful console yet, and it shows—games run smoother, look sharper with its new PSSR upscaling, and ray tracing improvements add a lot of visual polish. The upgraded 2TB SSD is a huge quality-of-life boost, and Wi-Fi 7 makes it feel future-proof. Titles like Spider-Man 2 and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth really shine on this hardware, pushing frame rates and fidelity further than the base PS5. That said, the $699 price tag stings, especially since the disc drive and stand are sold separately, and only a limited number of games fully take advantage of the Pro right now. If you’re a hardcore gamer with a 4K display who wants the best PlayStation experience possible, the PS5 Pro delivers. For casual players or those happy with their current PS5, the upgrade may not feel essential.

    PS5 Pro = Worthwhile upgrade for performance enthusiasts. Not a must-own console for the average gamer. It improves graphics and frame rates in meaningful ways, but the difference only shines in the right setup (120Hz displays, supported games). For everyone else, the standard PS5 remains a very capable machine. No hype. No sugarcoat. Just reality: Good upgrade. Not game-changing.

    Currently loving my Playstation 5 Pro. I’ve had it for about a month and have enojoyed every single aspect of it. From the high resolution display, the lightining fast loading times, ability to keep high frame rates on graphic-heavy games and overall better perofrmance that the Playstation 5 Slim I had.

    The PlayStation 5 is a truly next-gen experience, offering impressive improvements over its predecessor. From its blazing-fast load times to stunning graphics, Sony has hit the mark with this console. The SSD makes loading times nearly nonexistent, and the ray tracing technology ensures games look visually stunning. The redesigned DualSense controller is a game-changer, offering haptic feedback and adaptive triggers that bring you closer to the action.

    The PlayStation 5 Pro is a fantastic upgrade for gamers seeking better performance and visuals. The enhanced graphics, smoother gameplay with 120Hz support, and realistic ray tracing make gaming truly immersive. I’m especially happy about the increased storage capacity—it’s a relief not having to constantly delete games to make space. The improved cooling system and upgraded haptic feedback on the controllers are also great additions. While it’s a bit pricey and bulkier, the PS5 Pro is worth it for anyone serious about gaming.

    PS5 Pro is absolutely amazing. This PlayStation 5 Pro works great for gaming, movies, and everything in between. The graphics are stunning, 4K resolution is crystal clear, and the performance boost is unbelievable. Games run smoother, faster, and look better than ever. The PS5 Pro is easy to install, easy to set up, and ready to go right out of the box. Hard work clearly went into this design—it feels premium, powerful, and built to last. The PS5 Pro delivers amazing speed, performance, and reliability every single time. Best Buy made the buying process fast and simple with excellent service and quick pickup. I would definitely buy the PS5 Pro again and highly recommend it to anyone who wants the ultimate gaming console with amazing power and easy setup.

    ​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.
