Is the PS5 Pro worth it over the standard PS5?

If you have a 4K TV with 120Hz support and play demanding games, the sharper image and steadier frame rates are noticeable. On a 1080p or 60Hz TV the difference is much smaller.

Do I need a Pro-patched game to see a difference?

Most of the gain comes from games patched for the Pro, where PSSR and higher frame rates kick in. Unpatched PS5 games run in a boost mode with smaller improvements.

Does it play physical discs and PS4 games?

Yes. The bundle includes a disc drive for PS5 and PS4 discs and Blu-ray movies, and the console is backwards compatible with most PS4 titles.

What is included in the box?

The PS5 Pro console with disc drive, a DualSense controller, USB charging cable, HDMI cable, power cord, horizontal stands, a hard shell controller case and God of War Ragnarok.

How much storage does it have?

It has a 4TB SSD, though a portion is reserved for system use. That leaves far more room for installed games than the base console's drive.

Can I stand it vertically?

Only horizontal stands are included, so it sits flat out of the box. A separate vertical stand is needed to stand it upright.

About the PlayStation 5 Pro 4TB SSD Console with Disc Drive, Wireless Controller and Case, God of War Ragnarok - CFI-7019 PS5 Pro

The PlayStation 5 Pro is a game console with a 4TB SSD and a disc drive. It is built to let developers add advanced ray tracing, sharper image clarity on 4K TVs and high frame rate gameplay to their games. A portion of the storage is reserved for use by the system.

PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) uses AI-enhanced resolution to give 4K TVs sharper image clarity. Compatible games can run at 60fps, or up to 120fps, with ray tracing and AI-enhanced 4K resolution at the same time. The console supports 60Hz and 120Hz displays for higher and more consistent frame rates.

The console can play over 8,500 PS4 games. The PS5 Pro version of Game Boost can give faster and smoother frame rates in some PS4 and PS5 games.
