    Little to no value AT THIS TIME

    First, I’m not here to tell you how to spend your money. If you’re happy with your Pro, cool. Sony wants you to buy the console on future promises without delivering much of anything up front. I really wanted for this to be awesome, as I preordered it, just to be very let down. I see no value at this time ($833 for a console and disc drive is extremely expensive, with a current 1/5 “wow” factor) and returned it and the disc drive. I do see future potential for it, I’ll consider it again in a couple years. They advertise “Disc Free” on (the damaged) box, as if that’s a benefit. No launch games to say “Hey! Check out what this can do!” is insane. Instead, check out older releases that every PS5 owner has (likely) already played years ago. Umm, why wasn’t Astro Bot included as an enhanced game? Is there a difference having the Pro (on a proper display of course)? Yes, but marginal. Sometimes better (let’s zoom in to see if we can tell most of the time), but lots of games looked and performed worse. PSSR is a mess. Did I mention no disc drive? Yep, worth mentioning again, as it’s a slap in the face being forced to buy an essential disc drive. Fact: over 80% of PS5’s sold before the Pro launch were disc drive models. Sony is alienating its hardcore audience in so many ways. They want to nickel and dime you in every way possible while under-delivering. Over 6 weeks later, things are still a mess. Having owned every single PlayStation console since/around launch, with exception of the PS3 that was purchased a couple years later, this is the most disastrous release ever. PS4 game enhancement is negligible. Nothing too positive to say about this right now, but again, I think once a disc drive model is available, there’s a decent game library, a price drop, and lots of bugs are fixed, it will have some value. I think Sony needs to act quickly on customer concerns and they definitely aren’t - e.g. An update was released a month after launch to aid in console data transfer….that should’ve been day one. That’s enough of my rant. Glad I could get my money back after being robbed.

    Bought an Open Box and honestly was really surprised with how well it was maintained. Even opened it up to see it all completely dusted and clean. It was as if I bought it new!

    Doesn't come with drive. To me it's like buying a new car without tires. Just put it on and sell it complete. Other than that, it does perform well.

    Great machine for the price, developers need to optimize for it though. Not a magic bullet but makes most games better.

    Great investment. The system is a great update from the 4. The storage space is a bonus, no need to worry about deleting games to install new ones as long as you’re realistic with what games you actually keep installed and play.

    The Ps5 Pro feels and looks good , it was easy pick up and the customer service was great they got me out the door quickly. I noticed though that some games on the pro tend to have an error notification while playing them but it does not happen every time.

    Absolutely love my ps5. Tons of great games and it has all the streaming services you could want. The PlayStation plus service just adds even more value with tons of included games from big franchises, as well as classics from generations past.
