The price cuts on Sony’s PS5 Pro are a rare occurrence, but it was obvious that during Amazon’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale, we would witness the Japanese giant’s most powerful console available at a lower price. However, probably no one could have predicted that the discount would remain in its original state after the sale period ended, meaning you get another chance to get the PS5 Pro for $648.99, down from its original price of $749.99, resulting in a savings of $101.
Sony has not only made the PS5 Pro more powerful than the base PS5, but it also comes with a 2TB SSD right off the bat, helping you save even more money in the process
The PS5 Pro offers multiple performance improvements over the PS5, with Sony stating that its most powerful console offers 67 percent more compute units, 28 percent faster memory, which in turn, enables 45 percent faster rendering compared to the older model. With that extra processing and graphics horsepower, game developers now possess the ammunition to implement ray tracing in their titles, offering a more realistic scenery for those wanting better immersion from something that’s not a gaming desktop or gaming laptop.
Most importantly, with AI upscaling incorporated in desktop and laptop GPUs, Sony has finally introduced its own version that it calls PSSR, or PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution. In short, the PS5 Pro can produce better image quality while rendering faster framerates, particularly at higher resolutions, making the $101 price cut worth it. Additionally, if you were concerned about needing to make storage upgrades in the future, the PS5 Pro ships with a 2TB SSD as soon as you unbox it.
Unfortunately, you only get a single controller in the box, so if you happen to have another sibling who wants to get into competitive gaming, you might have to make another purchase from Amazon. Fortunately, Sony’s DualSense Wireless Controller is discounted on the online retailer too and is going for $54.99 apiece for the white color. Sadly, we cannot guarantee that these price drops are going to last, so it is best that you decide early on, or else you might lose out.
