Sony PlayStation 5 Pro Console vs PS5 Slim Disc Console 1TB + Portal Bundle

Buy the PS5 Pro if you want the strongest PlayStation graphics, the most storage and a disc drive you can add later. Buy the Slim bundle if you want a disc drive in the box, a second screen for handheld play and the lowest entry into the PS5 library. The Pro's extra GPU power and 2TB drive are real, but reviewers and owners say the jump over the base PS5 is modest on most games and clearest on a 4K 120Hz TV. The Slim is the better-loved value, with a huge owner base and a 4.6 rating across more than 12,000 reviews.

• Choose the PS5 Pro if you have a 4K 120Hz TV, play demanding single-player games and want maximum storage without opening the console.
• Choose the PS5 Slim bundle if you want a disc drive included, a Portal for playing away from the TV and the standard PS5 experience most games are built for.
