    Upgraded from the original PS5. Run more quiet and does not overheat like my original PS5. Love the fact ut can play my games in enhanced more. The extra frame rates are very noticeable. No regrets. Highly recommended if you thinking about upgrading.

    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.

    It genuinely exceeded my expectations right out of the box. Coming directly from a PS4 after years i was finally able to to get my hands on a PS5 Pro and it was such an awesome transition everything is so different in a very great way. The controller, the game smoothness, fast loading time and graphics also when youre in a party chat with your friends the audio is so crisp and clear. If youre looking to upgrade your PS5 to a PS5 Pro i would highly recommend it.

    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

    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.

    PS5 – A Beast of a Console

    I picked up my PS5 from Best Buy and let me tell you this thing rips. The graphics are wild, load times are practically nonexistent, and the DualSense controller? Feels like magic in your hands. Even when I’m not playing the latest AAA game, I’m deep in The Binding of Isaac, and it runs buttery smooth. No lag, no delays just pure, chaotic dungeon-crawling bliss. I didn’t think I’d notice a difference on an “older” indie game, but even that feels upgraded. Best Buy made it super easy to grab one and I couldn’t be happier. Whether you’re into cinematic blockbusters or cursed basement roguelikes like me the PS5 is 100% worth it.

    Good Performance, but Overpriced

    The PS5 Pro is pretty good. I get a stable 60 fps in most games. The Spider Man series are the only games where my system can achieve more than 60 fps and still look visually stunning. I just don't think the added $200 is worth those upgrades. This system needs a specification bump on the CPU to at least 5 ghz while maintaining its 8 cores. More RAM wouldn't hurt either. However at that point one might as well build or buy a mid-range PC. I would recommend the PS5 pro as a guilty pleasure purchase.

    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.

    Worth the upgrade

    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 console is amazing, the graphics are way better than the base PS5. The WiFi is faster and the load times seem faster as well. The fact that I can play my games in quality mode with faster frame rates makes this a must have, highly recommended!

    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!

    The Playstation 5 Pro is the pinnacle of modern day gaming, its stunning graphical detail and smooth framerates give the gamer the best experience when playing games. While the price can be a little daunting and at the sake of this review sounding like ChatGPT wrote it lol. The console is worth the money and then some to get the best possible gaming experience money can buy right now. Couple the console with the most immersive controller on the market with Dualsense and you have a winning package!

    Purchased this for my son. Hes into gaming and had a few issues with the hdmi cable on his old 1st gen Playstation, so i decided to upgrade to the pro. I had him give his old one which he fixed to one of his friends for free since he was getting a new one, kindness is better. He loves the speex and graphics and the storage is amazing. Purchasex the disc attachment too, which i would highly recommend getting along with the Playstation pro. Great purchase imo.

    While the performance of most (not all) PS5 games is identical on the base PS5 and Pro, the resolution and graphical boost were immediately noticeable on the Pro. I didn’t expect to notice a substantial difference in those areas, but I immediately did in games like Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Spider-Man 2. The games look noticeably sharper than they did on my base PS5. So far, the experience has been fantastic and I don’t regret purchasing the console at all. However, if you don’t have a base PS5 to resell, the vaule proposition isn’t great.

    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.
