Worth the upgrade to most gamers even those without 4K screens

I think full price is a bit of a stretch for the worth of the PlayStation 4 Pro, but the price available here is worth it. The PlayStation 4 Pro works better in everyway compared to a normal PlayStation 4. The graphics are better in most popular games but in addition it loads faster as well. Some reviews complained about heavy 4K use causing the system to get very warm and while true , I'd say half to most of your gameplay the system will be more quite comparatively. Not every game will take full advantage of the PS4 Pro's potential but almost all games will use it in some way. A big deal is gameboost mode which has to be manually enabled in the settings menu will allow games to load faster and run at a smoother frame rate. Only supported games will get above 30fps but many games drop below 30 fps during normal gameplay the Pro will make those games run at 30 fps or significantly closer. I wasn't planning on using this with a 4K screen but I did end up buying one after purchase. The small resolution difference for some games is quite noticeable going from sub 1080p to 1080p and beyond. For those not using wired Ethernet for internet, the WiFi has been updated to current 5ghz standards. The PS4 Pro is not for everyone but in my opinion you'd have to really really not care about graphics to not find the upgrade cool. The design is weird from the front but better overall like the top and back of the system. There are easier to use buttons that aren't touch sensitive either.Read full review
