Sony PlayStation 4 Pro review: The default choice

 

Sony's PlayStation 4 Pro was the first of its kind for gaming consoles when it launched in November 2016, able to process gameplay at 4K UHD resolution with high dynamic range (HDR), thanks to a better graphics card and other hardware improvements. ...

4K gaming for less than $500 Improves visuals on select PlayStation VR titles Makes all games run slightly better than standard PS4 Looks good even on 1080p TVs Supports all PS4 games

HDR can be difficult to set up Very few titles offer 4K support at launch No 4K Blu-ray Player

The PS4 Pro is undoubtedly the best version of the PlayStation 4, but it is not so much better that you should feel compelled to upgrade when a better new console is on the way shortly.

Razer BlackShark V2 Pro Review

 

Powerful sound ; Excellent microphone ; Comfortable fit ; THX Spatial Audio works well

Higher frequencies could be a bit more crisp ; Nearly twice as expensive as the wired version of the headset

The Razer BlackShark V2 Pro takes the BlackShark V2's excellent performance and makes it wireless, for a hefty premium.

Sony PS4 Pro review

 

The most powerful version of the PS4 is also the best

Excellent exclusive games ; Awesome graphical performance ; Strong app selection

Sound could be more dynamic ; No 4K Blu-ray player

It's arguably the best games console you can buy right now, but the PS4 Pro is not quite the all-in-one 4K player that it could be and will soon be replaced

Sony PS4 Pro review: 4K HDR gaming for PlayStation fans

 

Although Microsoft makes a song and dance about its powerful Xbox One X console, and justifiably so, it was Sony that beat its main rival to the 4K punch, with this, the PlayStation 4 Pro. It is capable of playing games with resolutions up to 4K and...

4K HDR gaming Well supported with enhanced games Provides better experience for PSVR

A beast in looks and size No 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray playback Only a 1TB HDD which will fill rapidly

A fantastic 4K HDR games console that has a full year ahead of any similarly capable rival. It would have been nice to have 4K Blu-ray playback and a larger hard drive, but PS4 games look distinctly better when played on a Pro and, for gamers, that's...

Sony PlayStation 4 Pro review

 

Got a whizz-bang, 4K HDR TV? The PS4 Pro is the console you need - even without 4K Blu-ray

4K and HDR gaming goodness ; A helping hand for PSVR ; Familiar, sleek styling

No 4K Blu-Ray support ; Lots of games still waiting for Pro support ; PS4 VR cable swapping

Forget about the lack of 4K Blu-Ray – the PS4 Pro is the console your 4K TV dreams of

PlayStation 4 Pro (& HDR gaming) review

 

PlayStation 4 Pro is the first console to support 4K resolution and High Dynamic Range. We examine what this means for the gaming experience

HDR gaming! ; Higher resolution ; Some apps support 4K streaming ; Comprehensive game catalog ; World-class exclusives

No UHD Blu-ray drive ; Noisy ; High power consumption when streaming ; Many games lack HDR ; Struggles to deliver true 4K
