Should I Upgrade to PS5 Pro if I Already Own a PS5?

-

I’m considering whether to buy the PS5 Pro now that I already have the standard PS5. For those who own the Pro, is it really worth the investment? I have an OLED display, so I’m curious if there are noticeable differences in graphics or performance. Any insights would be appreciated!

Honestly, if you already have a PS5, the Pro might not give you a massive improvement, especially if you’re using an OLED. Most games will look a bit better, but if you’re not seeing a huge difference on your screen, it could be a tough sell. If I were you, I’d probably just keep the PS5 and wait for something more groundbreaking to come along.

Yeah, I’m with you on that. If you’re gaming on an OLED, the differences will be subtle, at best.

Thanks for the insight! I think I’ll stick with my current setup for now.

I wouldn’t rush to get the Pro. I have both, and to be honest, I haven’t noticed a significant difference when playing. I’d rather put that money towards something else, like a cool collector’s item or some new games. Unless you really want those minor upgrades, I think you’re good with the PS5 as is.

Exactly! The PS5 is already a solid console, no need to jump ship for slight improvements.

That’s a good point, I’ll keep it in mind!

If you’ve got the cash and want the latest tech, sure, go for the Pro, but if you’re strapped, save it for something more worthwhile, like games or accessories. At the moment, there aren’t a ton of exclusive games pushing its performance, so consider if that $699 price is justified right now.

Right? I don’t see a need unless you’re really into collecting or want the best of everything.

I appreciate the feedback! I’ll weigh my options carefully.
