Whereas thePS5 or PS5 Slim currently retails for $499.99 / 479.99.

This is a steep investment for a mid-gen upgrade and understandably beyond many folks' average budget.

However, in my real-world testing I am yet to see huge differences yet.

The Pro offers a much larger storage capacity than the PS5, which is a very welcome upgrade.

The wireless tech is upgraded in the Pro from the regular PS5 too.

The premium console has Wi-Fi 7 as opposed to Wi-Fi 6, which means quicker and smoother downloads.

It’s worth remembering that the PS5 Pro is, by default, an all-digital console.

This means it actually has more in common with the all-digital PS5 Slim Digital Edition machine than any other.

It’s still a fantastic console and will give you plenty of awesome experiences.
