The fact that I don't notice differences doesn't mean they're not there... But if I don't notice them, I can't see any reason to spend that much money on it.
Sony if you gonna pro …PRO! The pro is the top tier console. Like when you buy a top tier vehicle it comes with ALL bells and whistles. The ps5 pro at MINIMUM should have a damn disc drive for $700. Or a dual sense edge controller. Something. It’s for the ENTHUSIASTS so it should have EVERYTHING!
Yeah xbox is killing it!!! Like ot or not. BO6 on gamepass, stalker 2 is a banger & indiana Jones is going to be hitting too.... + 500+ games so theirs definitley some bangers on there. & it's definitley holding its own & still yet better at some games then the ps5 pro. Definitley you really gotta be a lil slow not to want to get on the box & steam will prolly be playing on their next console & say what you want but they don't need a refresh theirs still some power left under the hood to tap into. Series S/X is killing the game right now like it or not.
I kind of wish I didn't buy the PS5 Pro. But I had sold a lot of things so I bought it with cash so no complaint over buying it. I don't really notice any visual difference once so ever in any game at all. What I have noticed is slightly faster loading as well as upgrading the graphics in the PS4 games. I also notice better frame rate in Call of Duty games. That's about it though. Better frame rate, slightly better PS4 graphics. So overall I would say it's not really worth it. But I will keep it as I do like that it has 2TB SSD NVME inside of it. I like that for sure. But I have a gaming PC as well. Myh PC is with Nvidia 4070 super graphics card. It get's 33.5 teraflops. Way better than the 16.7 teraflops of the PS5 Pro. I played Call of Duty Black Ops 6 on my PS5 Pro and the PC as I have Xbox game pass Ultimate and got the game for free of course. I noticed better graphics and better frame rate on my PC for sure. My PC is is a 165 Hz 1440p monitor vs PS5 on a 4K 120 Hz TV. Even with 1440p though, wow PC graphics and frame rate are way better for sure.
Yep because PC has more than just resolution going on,I remember years ago playing tomb raider in 1080p on PC and it looked better than rise of tomb raider in 4K on my ps4pro so I get what you are saying about 1440p on your pc looking betterment than console 4k
I was about to pull the trigger on a pro about a week ago. There had been a succession of positive videos that I had just come off of, and was getting pumped. I listed my base PS5 and didn't get any bites right away, and in the interim saw some more videos about some games that actually looked worse. I'm very thankful for that little cool down. I had, because I feel like I just saved myself a lot of money. I'm going to keep my eye on how games and developers handle it over the next year, also see if it might come down to price a little bit.
Good idea. Theres no point in rushing to get it. They’re not gonna be out of stock. Wait and see what the devs do, look at comparisons of future games, then decide. And maybe you’ll even get lucky and snag one for much cheaper
you are just accellerating the destruction of western studios by not buying their games, it plays right in the hands of microsoft to sell every ips for pennies to Chlna.
So everything in this world has gone up in price dramatically over the last 4 years including salaries and you expect gaming consoles to get cheaper?Xbox is barely selling consoles and 75 percent of the sales are Series S.Xbox sold the Series X last year for holidays for $350 here in the US and it barely moved the sales.
I use to be a big Playstation fanboy until I got the series x and I absolutely love it I also have a ps5 and its been collecting dust lol no need to upgrade to 5 pro I'll wait for ps6
$499 bs5 pro $199 Concord tax. That console had red flags I mean, think about it. As soon as the Concord $400 million loss Sony came out with this console which is the same PS5 just with a few small upgrades. Plus they sold back Hideo Kojima IP rights. They needed money 💰 Just save $300 more dollars and buy a Pre Built PC at this point
I couldn't get into the PS5 either I don't have a pro but had the slim but something about it just doesn't feel right. Every time I boot it up I'm reminded that I prefer the Xbox ecosystem much more. The controller is another factor it's too light on the hands, the thumbstick placement is best on Xbox controllers, it's just not a comfortable controller to game on for long sessions. It might all just be personal preference but I definitely had to go back to series X with elite series 2 controller it's just very comfortable to game on.
@@Michael-t4d you game on one system for to long , I can play arcade Xbox Nintendo and PlayStation and the controller dosent bother me I’m used to it though
We went from being gameplay oriented to digital foundry oreinted with gaming. 7 year developmental cycles trying to do what a $1800 4090 $500 Ryzen does on a sub $1000 box packed with low bid components. But at least indies are still rolling strong! My PS5 collects dust now. I play my 3060ti and switch a lot more. It's not like Sony is killing it with exclusive releases.
"We don't need." Who is we. I am not you so you do not speak for me. If you do not want it, then you are not the target audience, so shut up and don't buy it.
I prefer PlayStation over Xbox, but own both. Sony has much better exclusive games in my opinion and while $699 is pricey, the 3DO was that much over 10 years ago. That said, I’d probably opt to get a standard PS5 over the pro unless you are a die hard gamer. I definitely think the PSVR2 benefits a lot from the Pro model, however.
@@thev3432 Well then your comment is even more out of touch. Microsoft and Xbox are doing fine, there will be another Xbox console for those that want one, don't want a PC, and don't for some reason want a Sony console. Hardware sales are not a meaningful metric anymore, haven't been for some time. It is all about content and how many "buy" your game. That is why Sony is moving so many titles to PC.
You're not the only one, but all reviewers mention that the Xbox is not having a mid-cycle refresh. Let's not forget that the PS4Pro was released November 2016, and One X November 2017.
I think the funniest thing about the PS5 Pro is how upset people are about not being able to buy something that was never meant for them in the first place. And I’m not all too thrilled about the price tag either, but it’s been made clear on several occasions that this is specifically targeting people that want their games to look, feel and play the best they’ve ever been on a PlayStation console with little to no compromise as a result. No one is forcing anyone to buy this. The slim does still exist and anyone wanting a ps5 can always get that instead. Besides, I’m certain most of you have phones, tablets, laptops, smart watches, clothing, etc. that cost about the same if not more than this thing. So what are we really talking about here?
And still they dont look. Many games are more blurry in ps5 pro. If few old games which everyone already played looks better... its not worth for 700$ or 930$ what it costs in Europe, anyways
It has to do with the price, of course. PS4Pro was 2.3x faster than the base model, and was only 100 dollars more. PS5Pro is 1.5x faster than the bas model, but 300 dollars more expensive.
Bro, I'm saying the same exact thing!!?? People literally spend thousands of dollars to upgrade iPhones every year to basically have the same exact phone they had the previous year with little to no differences at all and justify that but somehow get mad about Sony adding $200 to a Pro level console that was specifically taylor made for a certain type of player anyway. Im that player, so I spent the money and am not complaining or regretting my decision. It's just weird how people can somehow act like we as a society don't buy the same phones every year for near or over the price of a console that will get you years of use.
@@CREEBANDZ510 With phones, it's been the same business model for almost 30 years, but it's a new thing for consoles. In the previous generation, the Pro model was 2.3x faster than the base model and carried the $100 stronger price tag. In Europe, the base model is €399, and the Pro is double the price at €799. The Pro model is only 1.6x faster this time around with double the price.
Mark ..if you already have a PS5 it is not worth getting a PS5 Pro. Claiming $700 is not worth that level of graphics is the wrong way to look at it. Coming from the PS4 Pro I have 2 options. $500 for the base PS5 or $700 for the PS5 Pro. That's $200 for the extra enhancement, not $700. Half of the extra $200 is for the added 1TB of SSD storage. Well worth it. Don't judge a console by lame games produced by lazy devs who think AI upscaling can polish a turd without any optimisation. Judge a console by the best games made by the best devs. They set the bar and show what is possible going forward. Sometimes the improvement is better frame rate and frame pacing rather than pixel detail. The console has only been out a few weeks and you're writing it off. In a years time, base PS5 will be struggling with new games and PS5 Pro will start to shine. Everyone said the PS4 Pro was not worth it as well, but over time games ran better on it. AI upscaling needs a nice clean source image so the upscaler can identify the subpixel detail and reproduce it with new pixels. If the image is blurred, noisy or compressed, it has artefacts that destroy the subpixel ghost image across the pixels, so the AI upscaler has nothing to work with. Flickering frames that are not temporally stable is the AI upscaler hunting for subpixel detail and just rendering what it can. All these games that are failing are feeding low quality source images into the AI upscaler, thinking it can polish a turd. Sony's quality control should not be signing off such shoddy work because it gives a bad impression and that generates negative rants from people like you. To be honest you do not need the disc drive. I bought it but haven't used it, because I fitted a 4TB SSD and all the games I own on disc are either free or really cheap to get them in digital format. I'm all in on game preservation, but discs are not the answer. A plastic carrier is worthless because it only contains a faction of the game when you consider all the updates. Game preservation is buy lots of storage and store the whole game locally without deleting it, and remasters preserve games worth preserving for the new hardware.
@@jeffd.3290 In Europe the digital edition PS5 is 374 at the moment. The Pro is 800. And take a look at Avatar, Alan Wake 2, Star Wars Outlaws or Dragon's Dogma 2 running on the Pro. That's not a 426 euros difference. In fact those games arguably look worse on the Pro.
i am going from the ps3 to the ps5. i purchased it about three weeks ago . held on from opening it in case i went pro. $1199.00 AUD and no disc drive anywere. playing rise of the tomb raider and loos amazing on my ps5 slim with drive i got on sale. still getting used to the controller. the ps3 one felt better in the hand. but its not bad still getting used to it. different than 2013 tom raider on ps3 buttons made more sense
I have both the Playstation 5 Slim Disc Version and Playstation 5 Pro. All my games are downloaded digitally, and to be honest, I definitely do notice a difference in my games when comparing the new Playstation 5 Pro console to the original Playstation 5 Slim Disc Version. I'll admit I am a pixel peeper and enjoy looking for those fine details as I'm a huge fan of 4K graphics/visuals and usually always prioritize Fidelity/Quality mode for better graphics over better framerate. The fact that I can now have the best of both worlds is the entire reasoning behind my purchase. People act like they are forgetting what Mark Cernys' entire sales pitch was. It was to use PSSR 4K upscaling to give us a 4K or near 4K image while retaining a smooth 60fps. So basically, it eliminates the need to pick between the same Fidelity Modes and Performance Modes. Even though you still have to compromise and make a choice in a lot of games, it seems like the better choice is always Performance Pro Mode as you'll be getting the 4K graphics you did with the base models Fidelity Mode while still being able to play at 60fps.
People need to set expectations. If you are buying the ps5 pro for picture quality you will be disappointed, its not much of a difference to the naked eye. The image just looks sharper and more "detailed". People buy the ps5 pro for the boost in fps when games are "properely" patched. For me, i traded in my ps5 and xbox series x at gamestop for a trade credit of $820. so i had a positive balance of $60 to spend it on whatever i want on top of the ps5 pro i got for "free". At the end of the day, you cannot build a pc that is the same price of a ps5 pro that has better or the same performance. Playstation has always sold their consules at a loss either way so those people ps5 pro is overpriced, your claim is invalid. My $1500 PC does weaker performance than my $700 ps5 pro. As with dlss it was a nightmare the first year, but after that it got better. Same for pssr. You people comparing dlss that has gone a major revamp, bugs, and fixes to PSSR that just came out is an irrelevant comparison.
U gave your 2 very good consoles away, with what u got to play the best from both platforms just to get this over priced remaster, remade machine.... 🥴
Great video! One thing I constantly see online are two arguments against Xbox. One is that it doesn't have exclusive games that aren't available on other platforms. Two is that if you have a powerful PC, the Xbox console makes no sense. I think both of these arguments are completely irrelevant. And this is coming from somene who (like yourself) owns a very capable gaming desktop PC and the Xbox Series X. After spending ~1400€ on a PC and over 200€ on peripherals (mechanical keyboard and mouse) which raises the price to over 1600€, I'm just pleasantly shocked how close a 440€ console gets me to the same experience. And why did I get a console then? I wanted another gaming setup on another room and I love the system's plug and play nature. I just press on the controller's button and it turns on the TV, the soundbar and everything. No need to type in passwords, or juggle between mouse+keyboard and controller if you want to play certain games on a controller instead of M&K. Also love how the Xbox ecosystem just gives you added benefits for playing on both Windows and the Xbox console. "Xbox Play Anywhere" gets you two copies on both the PC and console for the price of one. Your games also have cloudsync so you can continue where you left off on a completely different platform. I also think it's great that all of the cloudsave stuff works *without* having a subscription. Take note, Sony and Nintendo. Take note. I don't currently subscribe to GamePass, but it's just a way better offering than PS Plus when it comes to day1 AAA releases. About exclusivity... I've played mostly on PC since I was a kid and I never troubled myself with the idea of "having access to games other people don't have access to". I think that's completely a psychological thing to some people. If you have dozens or hundreds of interesting games available to you, it doesn't matter at all whether they're available on some other platform. Skyrim was an awesome game according to many people, yet it was ported to pretty much every system on the planet including the toaster in your kitchen. That doesn't take away from its greatness. What I do appreciate tho' is how Xbox puts focus on backwards compatibility so not only can you play all those older titles on a new system, but you also get added benefits like increased framerates, HDR and added resolutions. Fallout 3 looks way better on an Xbox Series X than it did on the Xbox 360 back in the day, whereas on the PS5 it doesn't run at all because of the lack of proper backwards compatibility. And to anyone saying "who plays older games?!" I can only say: A LOT of people do. Like a lot.
I'm not saying Sony wouldn't have good exclusives, but on the other hand I never pay high sums for any games. I don't even pay 40€ for games and I wait for them to be on a -75-90% discount first. So all of the God of War, Uncharted, The Last of Us, Spiderman etc. games with 70€ price tags would just be a "no" from me. I mostly play 5-15€ for my games and I have no problems waiting a few years after they' been released. Again: I'm not saying those games are bad. They're not. But at the same time for me? I'd rather get more games that are 10-15€ than buy any 40-70€ games, really. But that's just me. If you're also as stingy as I am when it comes to game prices, you'd prolly also not have any added benefits from those exclusive offerings either. I've paid roughly 300€'ish for around 37 games by now because of steep Xbox discounts. And if there'd ever be some 60-80€ game I'd have an eye on, I'd just subscribe to a single month of GamePass Ultimate to play it and that's that. From what I've understood, Sony's exclusives aren't on their subscription service, so there's no avoiding those high prices...
It got a very beefy gpu but they're not taking advantage of it at all. Good on xbox for skipping the mid refresh to focus on releasing the next gen ahead of sony
@@s4f3ty you can tell when it's a console person that knows fuck all about hardware.. cause a 4090 is like the only GPU you people have ever heard of. And what you said makes no sense and is not even close to what I'm talking about
People relax they have not made a game strictly for the PS five Pro yet this shit kills me when people are basically facing their opinions on recycled games, everyone’s gonna bite their words when they make the new batch of games strictly and solely for the PS five
And they never will make a game strictly for the PS5 Pro, that would be absolutely stupid. Games will always take lead on the PS5 and the Pro will get resolution upgrades due to more rasterization power, and some additional level of RT support, but we all know it is not a RT powerhouse either. PSSR will get better in time, just like DLSS did, but we all need to be logical here, Sony is *not* going to provide a gaming experience that exceeds the $700 price point, especially with such a relatively non-existent CPU upgrade over PS5 Amatuer.
I think if Developers, allow the options to manually set your graphical options that will help a lot. And still offer this predetermined graphical option as well.. it's time for Sony and Xbox to give us all the options and we decide how we want are games to look.. my brother-in-law has a PS5 and I know he has a few options but nothing major that he is allowed to change in games. But I also heard Xbox is supposed to be coming out with a more computer like gaming system. Which may allow these options like PC does, not sure if it's true but it will be a game changer.. it's kind of sad all that horsepower in the Pro is being held back
My friend has a PRO and there is NO DIFFERENCE! All the Pro does, is bring the PS5 up closer to the power of the Series X. Since the PS5 has a much weaker GPU and everything else in comparison. I saw no difference between PS5 VS Pro. None! Anyone who claims they do is a ''fanboy'' just trying to convince themselves because they spent $700.
Ps5 pro have 800€ in the ''rich'' Greece + 30€ the stand + 120€ the disk drive. This means converting to Dollars that in Greece (and the rest Europe, but in Greece the basic salary is 830€ (880$)) you need to pay 1.007$ to have a Ps5 pro with disk drive and standing.
Superb Video! A little bird tells me that Microsoft plans to bring a new "Hybrid Gen Xbox X2" that will include hardware and software to play any PC game. They plan to release late 2026 or 2027 so many people do not see the point of a "Mid Cycle Upgrade" since a new console is just around the corner ;)
It is over priced. I have one and love it. You need to make sure you have a OLED tv at 120htz with VRR then you will be happy.looks better and runs better. If you are playing on a reg led 4 k tv waste of your money.
@@jasonrodgers6192 Yep. I have a Panasonic JZ980 Oled and it's just not that much of a huge deal. I don't even like sitting in a pitch black room watching TV anyway because it hurts my eyes (especially with HDR content). The most important feature on a TV is VRR at 120hz. That makes console gaming better. Oled is neither here nor there though. I'd just recommend a good brand when buying a TV because build quality matters.
I think that only the future games will show the PS5 Pro potential. - They will improve PSSR. - Developers will start aiming at PS5 Pro and the original PS5 will run games only at 30fps in new games due to lack of PSSR. So I recommend not buying it right now. Remember: console doesn't matter, games do. If there are no significant differences right now then there is no point buying PS5 Pro right now
Ps5 pro need update patches if you want to see big differences. In GT7 ths 1.54update patch make a nice difference in flat (25+ more fps in performance mode and higher resolution with much better ray tracing in quality mode) AND in PSVR2 (reprojection here is VERY BIG difference,cause you can see the scenery when you look right or left without blur or double image, but CRYSTAL clear motion picture). Month by month and game by game the differences will increase. I didnt had a Ps5 so the Pro is nice choice, cause i can have a good library now of flat games and of course as a psvr lover, a good library of psvr2 games, some of them, blew me away. I like that youre honest. If you have ps5, its not necessary to upgrade to ps5 pro unless you like perfection.
The Pro doesn't have hardware-based AI so it is no surprise it does not work well. According to TechpowerUp it's still RDNA 2.0 with some Frankenstein features added through software. The base PS5 could do it as well. The Pro, as it has now, is clearly a rip off. The PS4 price was 299€ here in the EU when the PS4 Pro came out for just 399€. How can the Pro cost 799€ (without a disc drive and a proper stand that will cost a whopping 170€ extra). Even the 699$ in the US is way too much. The GPU does not even beat a RX7700XT. It is more like a RX7600XT with 256bit mem bus and some more CU/shaders not turned off by as AMD.
The one thing i really wonder is the fact when Monster Hunter Wilds and GTA 6 comes out. Will the PS5 Pro will make those games a lot better. I believe so and that is the reason why I am gonna purchase one at the beggining of next year. The fact you can trade in your base PS5 for almost 300 and get the PS5 Pro for 400 plus tax to me isn't that bad.
I don't think it will make those games "a lot" better. Chances are GTA 6 will be CPU heaving, the PS5 Pro has very little uplift there over the base model. So other than some resolution upgrades and minimal RT, I don't think we can really expect much else.
Oookkk, I'm afraid I have to fundamentally disagree with just about all of the claims made here.. Jumping into it: -As it is targeted to the most 'engaged players', my presumption would be most people would be trading there base PS5 for the PRO, knocking the net outlay for the console down to ~$400. When you look at your setup as a whole, I would then ask what would be a better upgrade for $400? -The upgrade presented by the PRO is really only FULLY unlocked with a higher end display. With a 65"+ OLED, VRR, and 120hz capability you can unquestionably see a nice difference. I would not recommend this someone with a smaller, lower end LCD. Save up and get a better TV! -One thing to bear in mind, not all sections of all games will have a high level of extra detail to be unlocked by the PRO. For example, in GOW Ragnarok, Jotunheim, Vanaheim, & Svartalfheim look WAY better. While Helheim and Alfheim just don't have the fine detail to look a whole lot better. -Circling back to the core reason for the PRO; unlocking the capability to experience Fidelity level graphics in Performance mode. In my experience so far, GOW Ragnarok, The Crew Motorfest, Forbidden West, F1 2024, & Black Ops (white speckling needs to get fixed), that is EXACTLY what it has done. Its actually been a really great experience on console to get razor sharp visuals while still running at 60+ fps.
There are instances where it is worth it. I personally wish i could get it to guarantee high frame rates. I got spoiled by 120 hz. But again like the dual sense and PSVR2, it still boils down to the developer support. If they support it then it is will remain worth it. I can't afford it so I'll just wait until the six drops to upgrade. I got a Spiderman PS5 and 30th anniversary portal so I'm good for now.
If you’re going to make videos be factual the ps5 Pro isn’t selling out because it isn’t a chip shortage anymore in 2020 COVID caused a chip shortage leading to the PS5 being scarce, you’re just another nerd hating on the PS5 Pro its sad Smh
Mark u really just helped me make my decision 😂 Thank u so much for this video and as always your honest opinion ❤ I don't own a PS5 but I was thinking of getting the Pro! Seeing there's really no difference fr I'm saving the extra $400 and going for the PS5 😂
Dude Pony have Ripped you off Big Time, no disk drive etc Suxor, BSSR works badly as well and you need the latest TV to see any small improvement, this is why I have personally been saying its the BS5 Pro since Day 1 🙇
I have the original Launch Day PS5 BEAST! Love it! BUT I also got the Xbox Series X as a Christmas gift, and I actually ended up liking that more. So much so, that I bought a Series S version for when I travel and stay with relatives. I use my RTX 4080 laptop for hotel travel gaming though.
Look to each is own if you have a ps5 keep what you have if you want to upgrade then upgrade we all like different things so enjoy what you have and enjoy gaming if it’s on a ps5 or ps5 pro or Xbox or Nintendo just enjoy gaming period.
The value that Xbox series X/S provides with Gamepass is unmatched. In addition to the amazing controller which is perfect, especially for FPS games like COD, high quality hardware build, quick resume, list goes on. I literally see no reason to have a PlayStation other than the few exclusives, which I don’t really care about since I mostly play COD anyway.
I looove big consoles especially the old original Xbox that sucker was big too and I loved how big that console was! And the standard ps5 hight is great too lmbo. Hope the ps6 will be even bigger!
I don't know I played with expensive HDMI cords and both my playstation 5 and Xbox series X look amazing no Blurry shit like I see on this Utube video's trying to make the PS5 look like shit and Xbox if those people are useing the HDMI cable's that came with there system then I guess it can look wrose who know's I use the Expensive Monster HDMI's with the Gold plate on them and they help make both Systems look great guess I will get a Pro and see when I am able to buy a disk drive in a store So I can play my collection of physical games And not get ripped off buying everything Digitally.
Lol this discussion. You buy the consoles your friends have. If you're a serious gamer and stick to a console its only obvious to get the next upgrade to continue playing your games. Why you got an Xbox series X is the same story why someone could get a ps5 pro. I don't agree with the ps4 pro being a greater upgrade because it's absolutely not the case. That jet engine noise:p? Launch had the same issues took years to fix. Many games ran worse on ps4 pro then a regular ps4 by new bugs. The issue you're describing is not because of the console that's the whole marketing around it. To name a few whack ps4 pro releases that suck: Skyrim, dying light, monster hunter world.
Great overall summary , it’s pointless , the amount of newer games don’t justify this purchase , it’s like we are getting new consoles to replay the same Spider-Man game again , strange . Might as well get a slim and an Xbox series s or used x for that price . Cheers
Boot up killing floor boot up call of duty mw 2019...you'll clearly see that they now look a ton better vs playing them on XSX...keep in mind that KF2 was a 1440P game on the PS5 PRO and it runs at 1800P on the Xbox One X...you'll see that it runs at like Native 4K now with no fps drops..while you are at it boot up DIRT 5 in the Image quality mode and now there are no frame rate drops like it used to drop on the standard PS5 and it still looks better..Unsubbed
i have a xbox series x and when i bought my ps5 i never touched the xbox again. i love the ps5 controller and the console looks great too and the graphics are awesome. i also got the pro and love that there is more storage and a bit better graphics. the pro is not a big improvement over the og ps5 but we do see a bit better picture and no stuttering or slowdowns. the only thing i really liked about xbox was gamepass but i got the ps premium and has tons of games too. my xbox had issues with dvd movies that were getting fuzzy image and dont even work. i actually have 2 series x and both had this issue. no problems at all with my ps5.
I only got the pro because of storage but i agree the differences are very minimal and not worth the price tag i do think sony not including a disc drive and stand option, is a dick move and advertising the console as a pro version it should come with all the bells and whistles
The fact that I don't notice differences doesn't mean they're not there... But if I don't notice them, I can't see any reason to spend that much money on it.
Sony if you gonna pro …PRO! The pro is the top tier console. Like when you buy a top tier vehicle it comes with ALL bells and whistles. The ps5 pro at MINIMUM should have a damn disc drive for $700. Or a dual sense edge controller. Something. It’s for the ENTHUSIASTS so it should have EVERYTHING!
Man you're so right. Pro should have the full experience
I will always and forever be a die-hard Sony fanboy for life. There's no Xbox or PC that could ever make me switch.
Then you're the exact type of brainwashed consumer that the corporatist pigs love

I kind of wish I didn't buy the PS5 Pro. But I had sold a lot of things so I bought it with cash so no complaint over buying it. I don't really notice any visual difference once so ever in any game at all. What I have noticed is slightly faster loading as well as upgrading the graphics in the PS4 games. I also notice better frame rate in Call of Duty games. That's about it though. Better frame rate, slightly better PS4 graphics. So overall I would say it's not really worth it. But I will keep it as I do like that it has 2TB SSD NVME inside of it. I like that for sure. But I have a gaming PC as well. Myh PC is with Nvidia 4070 super graphics card. It get's 33.5 teraflops. Way better than the 16.7 teraflops of the PS5 Pro. I played Call of Duty Black Ops 6 on my PS5 Pro and the PC as I have Xbox game pass Ultimate and got the game for free of course. I noticed better graphics and better frame rate on my PC for sure. My PC is is a 165 Hz 1440p monitor vs PS5 on a 4K 120 Hz TV. Even with 1440p though, wow PC graphics and frame rate are way better for sure.
Oled with vrr? With my c2 I see a noticeable difference. Games looks and run beautifully. Been playing spider man 2 and ragnarok. It’s awesome
As a rat bot you wouldn’t see any difference even if it was obvious. Please don’t waste your money next time.
Yep because PC has more than just resolution going on,I remember years ago playing tomb raider in 1080p on PC and it looked better than rise of tomb raider in 4K on my ps4pro so I get what you are saying about 1440p on your pc looking betterment than console 4k
I was about to pull the trigger on a pro about a week ago. There had been a succession of positive videos that I had just come off of, and was getting pumped. I listed my base PS5 and didn't get any bites right away, and in the interim saw some more videos about some games that actually looked worse. I'm very thankful for that little cool down. I had, because I feel like I just saved myself a lot of money. I'm going to keep my eye on how games and developers handle it over the next year, also see if it might come down to price a little bit.
Good idea. Theres no point in rushing to get it. They’re not gonna be out of stock. Wait and see what the devs do, look at comparisons of future games, then decide. And maybe you’ll even get lucky and snag one for much cheaper
I love your honest review and you made me stick with the original PS5. Thank you and keep the good work.
I just love how all the latest releases are on Game Pass from Day 1 so I won't have to go broke buying super expensive 100 dollar games every month

@evp159 Just maken up shit. But we all know the regular ps5 is way better than the Series S and at the same price... Be hard pass .
So everything in this world has gone up in price dramatically over the last 4 years including salaries and you expect gaming consoles to get cheaper?Xbox is barely selling consoles and 75 percent of the sales are Series S.Xbox sold the Series X last year for holidays for $350 here in the US and it barely moved the sales.
I use to be a big Playstation fanboy until I got the series x and I absolutely love it I also have a ps5 and its been collecting dust lol no need to upgrade to 5 pro I'll wait for ps6

May not be worth it but at the same time it's worth more than having that Xbox lol
$499 bs5 pro
$199 Concord tax. That console had red flags I mean, think about it. As soon as the Concord $400 million loss Sony came out with this console which is the same PS5 just with a few small upgrades. Plus they sold back Hideo Kojima IP rights. They needed money 💰 Just save $300 more dollars and buy a Pre Built PC at this point
I couldn't get into the PS5 either I don't have a pro but had the slim but something about it just doesn't feel right. Every time I boot it up I'm reminded that I prefer the Xbox ecosystem much more. The controller is another factor it's too light on the hands, the thumbstick placement is best on Xbox controllers, it's just not a comfortable controller to game on for long sessions. It might all just be personal preference but I definitely had to go back to series X with elite series 2 controller it's just very comfortable to game on.
lol thought it was just me I have both and always gravitate back to xbix it just feels like home
@@Michael-t4d you game on one system for to long , I can play arcade Xbox Nintendo and PlayStation and the controller dosent bother me I’m used to it though

We went from being gameplay oriented to digital foundry oreinted with gaming. 7 year developmental cycles trying to do what a $1800 4090 $500 Ryzen does on a sub $1000 box packed with low bid components. But at least indies are still rolling strong! My PS5 collects dust now. I play my 3060ti and switch a lot more. It's not like Sony is killing it with exclusive releases.
We dont need mid gen refreshes, Sony,MS needs to stop making handicapped consoles from the beginning.
They need to pump the numbers for shareholders from quarter to quarter......we as you say, dont need mid gen nor give a rats ass about shareholders
So technology is stagnant throughout the generation?
L take, did you want the base ps5 to cost $899 at launch?
"We don't need." Who is we. I am not you so you do not speak for me. If you do not want it, then you are not the target audience, so shut up and don't buy it.
What a great honest review! Good job!
Thanks for watching!:)
Slim is fine, Pro is a gimmick.
I do like the 30th anniversary edition.
I prefer PlayStation over Xbox, but own both. Sony has much better exclusive games in my opinion and while $699 is pricey, the 3DO was that much over 10 years ago. That said, I’d probably opt to get a standard PS5 over the pro unless you are a die hard gamer. I definitely think the PSVR2 benefits a lot from the Pro model, however.
Dude lets be honest here. Xbox as a console is dead.
@@thev3432 It is? I just got some games and played in just last night, seems pretty "alive" to me. 🤦♂
@@davidandrew6855 you can still play games on Atari 2600 also. Means nothing as far as viability.
@@thev3432 Well then your comment is even more out of touch. Microsoft and Xbox are doing fine, there will be another Xbox console for those that want one, don't want a PC, and don't for some reason want a Sony console.
Hardware sales are not a meaningful metric anymore, haven't been for some time. It is all about content and how many "buy" your game. That is why Sony is moving so many titles to PC.
Only reason i wanted the pro was 30th anniversary but scalpers took that away from me so i could care less now stay with ps5
Duude, the PlayStation 5 pro looks worse than the PlayStation 5, this console is a scam!
False. You are confused
Many games even runt worse on the ps5 pro than on the ps5....
You're not the only one, but all reviewers mention that the Xbox is not having a mid-cycle refresh. Let's not forget that the PS4Pro was released November 2016, and One X November 2017.
I think the funniest thing about the PS5 Pro is how upset people are about not being able to buy something that was never meant for them in the first place. And I’m not all too thrilled about the price tag either, but it’s been made clear on several occasions that this is specifically targeting people that want their games to look, feel and play the best they’ve ever been on a PlayStation console with little to no compromise as a result. No one is forcing anyone to buy this. The slim does still exist and anyone wanting a ps5 can always get that instead. Besides, I’m certain most of you have phones, tablets, laptops, smart watches, clothing, etc. that cost about the same if not more than this thing. So what are we really talking about here?
And still they dont look. Many games are more blurry in ps5 pro. If few old games which everyone already played looks better... its not worth for 700$ or 930$ what it costs in Europe, anyways
It has to do with the price, of course. PS4Pro was 2.3x faster than the base model, and was only 100 dollars more. PS5Pro is 1.5x faster than the bas model, but 300 dollars more expensive.
Star wars and Avatar run better on Ps5 then on Ps5 Pro enhanced... Ps5 Pro is the worst Playstation ever made.
Bro, I'm saying the same exact thing!!?? People literally spend thousands of dollars to upgrade iPhones every year to basically have the same exact phone they had the previous year with little to no differences at all and justify that but somehow get mad about Sony adding $200 to a Pro level console that was specifically taylor made for a certain type of player anyway. Im that player, so I spent the money and am not complaining or regretting my decision. It's just weird how people can somehow act like we as a society don't buy the same phones every year for near or over the price of a console that will get you years of use.
@@CREEBANDZ510 With phones, it's been the same business model for almost 30 years, but it's a new thing for consoles. In the previous generation, the Pro model was 2.3x faster than the base model and carried the $100 stronger price tag. In Europe, the base model is €399, and the Pro is double the price at €799. The Pro model is only 1.6x faster this time around with double the price.
Mark ..if you already have a PS5 it is not worth getting a PS5 Pro. Claiming $700 is not worth that level of graphics is the wrong way to look at it. Coming from the PS4 Pro I have 2 options. $500 for the base PS5 or $700 for the PS5 Pro. That's $200 for the extra enhancement, not $700. Half of the extra $200 is for the added 1TB of SSD storage. Well worth it. Don't judge a console by lame games produced by lazy devs who think AI upscaling can polish a turd without any optimisation. Judge a console by the best games made by the best devs. They set the bar and show what is possible going forward. Sometimes the improvement is better frame rate and frame pacing rather than pixel detail. The console has only been out a few weeks and you're writing it off.
In a years time, base PS5 will be struggling with new games and PS5 Pro will start to shine. Everyone said the PS4 Pro was not worth it as well, but over time games ran better on it. AI upscaling needs a nice clean source image so the upscaler can identify the subpixel detail and reproduce it with new pixels. If the image is blurred, noisy or compressed, it has artefacts that destroy the subpixel ghost image across the pixels, so the AI upscaler has nothing to work with. Flickering frames that are not temporally stable is the AI upscaler hunting for subpixel detail and just rendering what it can. All these games that are failing are feeding low quality source images into the AI upscaler, thinking it can polish a turd. Sony's quality control should not be signing off such shoddy work because it gives a bad impression and that generates negative rants from people like you.
To be honest you do not need the disc drive. I bought it but haven't used it, because I fitted a 4TB SSD and all the games I own on disc are either free or really cheap to get them in digital format. I'm all in on game preservation, but discs are not the answer. A plastic carrier is worthless because it only contains a faction of the game when you consider all the updates. Game preservation is buy lots of storage and store the whole game locally without deleting it, and remasters preserve games worth preserving for the new hardware.
Pretty sure he mentioned you can get a ps5 for $374 right now and the ps5 pro is $749, that’s closer to a $360 dollar difference rather than $200.
Holy yap
@@jeffd.3290 In Europe the digital edition PS5 is 374 at the moment. The Pro is 800. And take a look at Avatar, Alan Wake 2, Star Wars Outlaws or Dragon's Dogma 2 running on the Pro. That's not a 426 euros difference. In fact those games arguably look worse on the Pro.
When you can get the regular ps5 for under 400, and the difference in performance is minimal, it is exactly the right way to look at it...
Ps4 pro doesn't do 4k native
i am going from the ps3 to the ps5. i purchased it about three weeks ago . held on from opening it in case i went pro. $1199.00 AUD and no disc drive anywere. playing rise of the tomb raider and loos amazing on my ps5 slim with drive i got on sale. still getting used to the controller. the ps3 one felt better in the hand. but its not bad still getting used to it. different than 2013 tom raider on ps3 buttons made more sense
I have both the Playstation 5 Slim Disc Version and Playstation 5 Pro. All my games are downloaded digitally, and to be honest, I definitely do notice a difference in my games when comparing the new Playstation 5 Pro console to the original Playstation 5 Slim Disc Version. I'll admit I am a pixel peeper and enjoy looking for those fine details as I'm a huge fan of 4K graphics/visuals and usually always prioritize Fidelity/Quality mode for better graphics over better framerate. The fact that I can now have the best of both worlds is the entire reasoning behind my purchase. People act like they are forgetting what Mark Cernys' entire sales pitch was. It was to use PSSR 4K upscaling to give us a 4K or near 4K image while retaining a smooth 60fps. So basically, it eliminates the need to pick between the same Fidelity Modes and Performance Modes. Even though you still have to compromise and make a choice in a lot of games, it seems like the better choice is always Performance Pro Mode as you'll be getting the 4K graphics you did with the base models Fidelity Mode while still being able to play at 60fps.
Most games right now look worse on the Ps5 Pro
False but Cope harder
okay not making a difference is one thing but this is just false🤣. cope broke boy
@@gabriel99nvnope its true...
People need to set expectations. If you are buying the ps5 pro for picture quality you will be disappointed, its not much of a difference to the naked eye. The image just looks sharper and more "detailed". People buy the ps5 pro for the boost in fps when games are "properely" patched. For me, i traded in my ps5 and xbox series x at gamestop for a trade credit of $820. so i had a positive balance of $60 to spend it on whatever i want on top of the ps5 pro i got for "free". At the end of the day, you cannot build a pc that is the same price of a ps5 pro that has better or the same performance. Playstation has always sold their consules at a loss either way so those people ps5 pro is overpriced, your claim is invalid. My $1500 PC does weaker performance than my $700 ps5 pro. As with dlss it was a nightmare the first year, but after that it got better. Same for pssr. You people comparing dlss that has gone a major revamp, bugs, and fixes to PSSR that just came out is an irrelevant comparison.
U gave your 2 very good consoles away, with what u got to play the best from both platforms just to get this over priced remaster, remade machine.... 🥴

Damn man you done f’d up.
Great video!
One thing I constantly see online are two arguments against Xbox. One is that it doesn't have exclusive games that aren't available on other platforms. Two is that if you have a powerful PC, the Xbox console makes no sense.
I think both of these arguments are completely irrelevant. And this is coming from somene who (like yourself) owns a very capable gaming desktop PC and the Xbox Series X.
After spending ~1400€ on a PC and over 200€ on peripherals (mechanical keyboard and mouse) which raises the price to over 1600€, I'm just pleasantly shocked how close a 440€ console gets me to the same experience.
And why did I get a console then? I wanted another gaming setup on another room and I love the system's plug and play nature. I just press on the controller's button and it turns on the TV, the soundbar and everything. No need to type in passwords, or juggle between mouse+keyboard and controller if you want to play certain games on a controller instead of M&K.
Also love how the Xbox ecosystem just gives you added benefits for playing on both Windows and the Xbox console. "Xbox Play Anywhere" gets you two copies on both the PC and console for the price of one. Your games also have cloudsync so you can continue where you left off on a completely different platform.
I also think it's great that all of the cloudsave stuff works *without* having a subscription. Take note, Sony and Nintendo. Take note.
I don't currently subscribe to GamePass, but it's just a way better offering than PS Plus when it comes to day1 AAA releases.
About exclusivity... I've played mostly on PC since I was a kid and I never troubled myself with the idea of "having access to games other people don't have access to". I think that's completely a psychological thing to some people. If you have dozens or hundreds of interesting games available to you, it doesn't matter at all whether they're available on some other platform.
Skyrim was an awesome game according to many people, yet it was ported to pretty much every system on the planet including the toaster in your kitchen. That doesn't take away from its greatness.
What I do appreciate tho' is how Xbox puts focus on backwards compatibility so not only can you play all those older titles on a new system, but you also get added benefits like increased framerates, HDR and added resolutions. Fallout 3 looks way better on an Xbox Series X than it did on the Xbox 360 back in the day, whereas on the PS5 it doesn't run at all because of the lack of proper backwards compatibility. And to anyone saying "who plays older games?!" I can only say: A LOT of people do. Like a lot.
I'm not saying Sony wouldn't have good exclusives, but on the other hand I never pay high sums for any games. I don't even pay 40€ for games and I wait for them to be on a -75-90% discount first. So all of the God of War, Uncharted, The Last of Us, Spiderman etc. games with 70€ price tags would just be a "no" from me.
I mostly play 5-15€ for my games and I have no problems waiting a few years after they' been released.
Again: I'm not saying those games are bad. They're not. But at the same time for me? I'd rather get more games that are 10-15€ than buy any 40-70€ games, really. But that's just me. If you're also as stingy as I am when it comes to game prices, you'd prolly also not have any added benefits from those exclusive offerings either.
I've paid roughly 300€'ish for around 37 games by now because of steep Xbox discounts.
And if there'd ever be some 60-80€ game I'd have an eye on, I'd just subscribe to a single month of GamePass Ultimate to play it and that's that.
From what I've understood, Sony's exclusives aren't on their subscription service, so there's no avoiding those high prices...
It got a very beefy gpu but they're not taking advantage of it at all. Good on xbox for skipping the mid refresh to focus on releasing the next gen ahead of sony
I am hoping MS ditches the two model approach like they have been doing lately.
Beefy GPU in a console? Where? The pro is a 7700xt at most..that is a midrange GPU. That is not beefy
@RocWolf7 oh yeah and a 4090 is a budget gpu in your eyes too
@@s4f3ty you can tell when it's a console person that knows fuck all about hardware.. cause a 4090 is like the only GPU you people have ever heard of. And what you said makes no sense and is not even close to what I'm talking about
@RocWolf7 console person my ass
People relax they have not made a game strictly for the PS five Pro yet this shit kills me when people are basically facing their opinions on recycled games, everyone’s gonna bite their words when they make the new batch of games strictly and solely for the PS five
And they never will make a game strictly for the PS5 Pro, that would be absolutely stupid.
Games will always take lead on the PS5 and the Pro will get resolution upgrades due to more rasterization power, and some additional level of RT support, but we all know it is not a RT powerhouse either. PSSR will get better in time, just like DLSS did, but we all need to be logical here, Sony is *not* going to provide a gaming experience that exceeds the $700 price point, especially with such a relatively non-existent CPU upgrade over PS5 Amatuer.
The beautiful thing about the Pro. Don't buy it at 700 dollars. Wait until it drops on in price. Supply demand. No one buys they lower the price.
The double ice cream sandwich(PS4pro) is the best Playstation design.
Try TLOU I+II, GoW Ragnarök, Stellar Blade, R&C Rift Apart, Horizon FW.
If proper done by devs, PSSR is really a gamechanger.
NO VR, NO GYRO, NO ADAPTIVE TRIGGERS, NOT EVEN HAPTICS = DEADBOX

No games, no games and no games.. deadstation..
This thing should have been 550 or 600 max I was gonna get one because I don’t have a PS5 yet but the price is a big turn off I will stick with a slim
I think if Developers, allow the options to manually set your graphical options that will help a lot. And still offer this predetermined graphical option as well.. it's time for Sony and Xbox to give us all the options and we decide how we want are games to look.. my brother-in-law has a PS5 and I know he has a few options but nothing major that he is allowed to change in games. But I also heard Xbox is supposed to be coming out with a more computer like gaming system. Which may allow these options like PC does, not sure if it's true but it will be a game changer.. it's kind of sad all that horsepower in the Pro is being held back
My friend has a PRO and there is NO DIFFERENCE! All the Pro does, is bring the PS5 up closer to the power of the Series X. Since the PS5 has a much weaker GPU and everything else in comparison. I saw no difference between PS5 VS Pro. None! Anyone who claims they do is a ''fanboy'' just trying to convince themselves because they spent $700.

Superb Video! A little bird tells me that Microsoft plans to bring a new "Hybrid Gen Xbox X2" that will include hardware and software to play any PC game. They plan to release late 2026 or 2027 so many people do not see the point of a "Mid Cycle Upgrade" since a new console is just around the corner ;)
It is over priced. I have one and love it. You need to make sure you have a OLED tv at 120htz with VRR then you will be happy.looks better and runs better. If you are playing on a reg led 4 k tv waste of your money.
I have an Oled and still returned it….yall need to to stop with the oled narrative….its minor upgrades for $700….glad you’re enjoying it tho
@@jasonrodgers6192 Yep. I have a Panasonic JZ980 Oled and it's just not that much of a huge deal. I don't even like sitting in a pitch black room watching TV anyway because it hurts my eyes (especially with HDR content). The most important feature on a TV is VRR at 120hz. That makes console gaming better. Oled is neither here nor there though. I'd just recommend a good brand when buying a TV because build quality matters.
I think that only the future games will show the PS5 Pro potential.
- They will improve PSSR.
- Developers will start aiming at PS5 Pro and the original PS5 will run games only at 30fps in new games due to lack of PSSR.
So I recommend not buying it right now. Remember: console doesn't matter, games do. If there are no significant differences right now then there is no point buying PS5 Pro right now
Ps5 pro need update patches if you want to see big differences. In GT7 ths 1.54update patch make a nice difference in flat (25+ more fps in performance mode and higher resolution with much better ray tracing in quality mode) AND in PSVR2 (reprojection here is VERY BIG difference,cause you can see the scenery when you look right or left without blur or double image, but CRYSTAL clear motion picture). Month by month and game by game the differences will increase. I didnt had a Ps5 so the Pro is nice choice, cause i can have a good library now of flat games and of course as a psvr lover, a good library of psvr2 games, some of them, blew me away. I like that youre honest. If you have ps5, its not necessary to upgrade to ps5 pro unless you like perfection.
Games like Dragons Dogma2 plays stable 4K 60fps on the pro. The pro machine prepare for the upcoming titles.
Also with 8k TV's coming out you'll notice that much more and with faster frame rates!
I bought it too . And feel exactly the same as the reviewer is saying. It is very very expensive should've been 600 dollors max with the stand .
going from the ps5 to ps5 pro is like going from a rx 6700 to a rx 6800
Great Video I built A PC Instead Of The Ps5 Pro
Great video. Everything true and on the spot
Question: Do you regret leaving your library behind?
Nah tbh
The Pro doesn't have hardware-based AI so it is no surprise it does not work well. According to TechpowerUp it's still RDNA 2.0 with some Frankenstein features added through software. The base PS5 could do it as well. The Pro, as it has now, is clearly a rip off.
The PS4 price was 299€ here in the EU when the PS4 Pro came out for just 399€. How can the Pro cost 799€ (without a disc drive and a proper stand that will cost a whopping 170€ extra). Even the 699$ in the US is way too much. The GPU does not even beat a RX7700XT. It is more like a RX7600XT with 256bit mem bus and some more CU/shaders not turned off by as AMD.
The one thing i really wonder is the fact when Monster Hunter Wilds and GTA 6 comes out. Will the PS5 Pro will make those games a lot better. I believe so and that is the reason why I am gonna purchase one at the beggining of next year. The fact you can trade in your base PS5 for almost 300 and get the PS5 Pro for 400 plus tax to me isn't that bad.
I don't think it will make those games "a lot" better. Chances are GTA 6 will be CPU heaving, the PS5 Pro has very little uplift there over the base model. So other than some resolution upgrades and minimal RT, I don't think we can really expect much else.
I feel sorry for the gamers who can't see it.....but there is a difference owning the PlayStation 5 Pro....... it's in your WALLET 😢
Oookkk, I'm afraid I have to fundamentally disagree with just about all of the claims made here.. Jumping into it:
-As it is targeted to the most 'engaged players', my presumption would be most people would be trading there base PS5 for the PRO, knocking the net outlay for the console down to ~$400. When you look at your setup as a whole, I would then ask what would be a better upgrade for $400?
-The upgrade presented by the PRO is really only FULLY unlocked with a higher end display. With a 65"+ OLED, VRR, and 120hz capability you can unquestionably see a nice difference. I would not recommend this someone with a smaller, lower end LCD. Save up and get a better TV!
-One thing to bear in mind, not all sections of all games will have a high level of extra detail to be unlocked by the PRO. For example, in GOW Ragnarok, Jotunheim, Vanaheim, & Svartalfheim look WAY better. While Helheim and Alfheim just don't have the fine detail to look a whole lot better.
-Circling back to the core reason for the PRO; unlocking the capability to experience Fidelity level graphics in Performance mode. In my experience so far, GOW Ragnarok, The Crew Motorfest, Forbidden West, F1 2024, & Black Ops (white speckling needs to get fixed), that is EXACTLY what it has done. Its actually been a really great experience on console to get razor sharp visuals while still running at 60+ fps.
Is the Xbox series x that much better than the series s?
The ps3 slim was definitely the best looking console. W take
I traded my ps5 in at best buy and got pro. They gave me 210 in trade. I'm happy
Pro should even be a thing.
Thanks for being honest 👍🏻 I'm sticking with my og ps5 with drive & stand included for my mostly physical game collection
Ps5 pro with no web browser LMAO
There are instances where it is worth it. I personally wish i could get it to guarantee high frame rates. I got spoiled by 120 hz. But again like the dual sense and PSVR2, it still boils down to the developer support. If they support it then it is will remain worth it. I can't afford it so I'll just wait until the six drops to upgrade. I got a Spiderman PS5 and 30th anniversary portal so I'm good for now.
Wait?? Are you telling me the ps5 and pro have two different UI?
My ps5 pro still in the box I need a new tv any suggestions on what tv is best to get as of right now I’m playing on my ally x so it’s fine I can wait

Mark u really just helped me make my decision 😂 Thank u so much for this video and as always your honest opinion ❤ I don't own a PS5 but I was thinking of getting the Pro! Seeing there's really no difference fr I'm saving the extra $400 and going for the PS5 😂
Dude Pony have Ripped you off Big Time, no disk drive etc Suxor, BSSR works badly as well and you need the latest TV to see any small improvement, this is why I have personally been saying its the BS5 Pro since Day 1 🙇
I have the original Launch Day PS5 BEAST! Love it! BUT I also got the Xbox Series X as a Christmas gift, and I actually ended up liking that more. So much so, that I bought a Series S version for when I travel and stay with relatives. I use my RTX 4080 laptop for hotel travel gaming though.
Now swap ps5 for a pc and you will have the best.
The difference 100% depends on your tv
Playstation and Xbox has a different game rom for every console. PC don't. With a PC you purchase a game and download it once.
It's called the PS5 Pro Aka "Baller's Edition".
Thanks Mark. Great video... once again as usual :) ❤ from 🇵🇹
Look to each is own if you have a ps5 keep what you have if you want to upgrade then upgrade we all like different things so enjoy what you have and enjoy gaming if it’s on a ps5 or ps5 pro or Xbox or Nintendo just enjoy gaming period.
I got the ps5 pro and pay for the disk drive on Sony site so I paid regular price. 😅
The value that Xbox series X/S provides with Gamepass is unmatched. In addition to the amazing controller which is perfect, especially for FPS games like COD, high quality hardware build, quick resume, list goes on. I literally see no reason to have a PlayStation other than the few exclusives, which I don’t really care about since I mostly play COD anyway.
PCMR = If you know, you know.
I looove big consoles especially the old original Xbox that sucker was big too and I loved how big that console was! And the standard ps5 hight is great too lmbo. Hope the ps6 will be even bigger!
All these youtubers complaining about the price, but buy it anyways is comical..😅
there's to many people saying this glad i didn't buy it
ps4 gen was better. just save your money for next gen. $700 for a ps pro is insane. rather buy a laptop with a 3080.
Next Black Friday I sense I will pick up a pro
I play on a 85 inch QLED 120hz with vrr 10 more frames is very noticeable and so are details
Your eyes lie to you 😂😅😂
lol tv and not a monitor
@@cocacola3269not really
I don't know I played with expensive HDMI cords and both my playstation 5 and Xbox series X look amazing no Blurry shit like I see on this Utube video's trying to make the PS5 look like shit and Xbox if those people are useing the HDMI cable's that came with there system then I guess it can look wrose who know's I use the Expensive Monster HDMI's with the Gold plate on them and they help make both Systems look great guess I will get a Pro and see when I am able to buy a disk drive in a store So I can play my collection of physical games And not get ripped off buying everything Digitally.
@baileyIrishCream6984 sounds great
Lol this discussion. You buy the consoles your friends have. If you're a serious gamer and stick to a console its only obvious to get the next upgrade to continue playing your games. Why you got an Xbox series X is the same story why someone could get a ps5 pro. I don't agree with the ps4 pro being a greater upgrade because it's absolutely not the case. That jet engine noise:p? Launch had the same issues took years to fix. Many games ran worse on ps4 pro then a regular ps4 by new bugs. The issue you're describing is not because of the console that's the whole marketing around it. To name a few whack ps4 pro releases that suck: Skyrim, dying light, monster hunter world.
Great overall summary , it’s pointless , the amount of newer games don’t justify this purchase , it’s like we are getting new consoles to replay the same Spider-Man game again , strange . Might as well get a slim and an Xbox series s or used x for that price . Cheers
Need 1st party titles also to really see.
Boot up killing floor boot up call of duty mw 2019...you'll clearly see that they now look a ton better vs playing them on XSX...keep in mind that KF2 was a 1440P game on the PS5 PRO and it runs at 1800P on the Xbox One X...you'll
see that it runs at like Native 4K now with no fps drops..while you are at it boot up DIRT 5 in the Image quality mode and now there are no frame rate drops like it used to drop on the standard PS5 and it still looks better..Unsubbed
Good honest video. Just did my react! Kool dude. It is a scam indeed.
why did you get a 4090 laptop if you don't care for graphics? a 4060 laptop would have been just fine no?
This guy is showing us side by side shit of old games smh
Gotta wait until the next Gen true games come out. Not the cheap PS4 slightly polished one!
i have a xbox series x and when i bought my ps5 i never touched the xbox again. i love the ps5 controller and the console looks great too and the graphics are awesome. i also got the pro and love that there is more storage and a bit better graphics. the pro is not a big improvement over the og ps5 but we do see a bit better picture and no stuttering or slowdowns. the only thing i really liked about xbox was gamepass but i got the ps premium and has tons of games too. my xbox had issues with dvd movies that were getting fuzzy image and dont even work. i actually have 2 series x and both had this issue. no problems at all with my ps5.
I only got the pro because of storage but i agree the differences are very minimal and not worth the price tag i do think sony not including a disc drive and stand option, is a dick move and advertising the console as a pro version it should come with all the bells and whistles
its the 2TB that makes this thing expensive, look at the 2TB xbox, also expensive
👍 SPOT ON ! 👍
At least they gave us a 2 TB ssd instead of a 1 TB that’s over 100 right there
$200 you mean 😂
