      Not the same people but I know what you mean. The Pro is for enthusiast who don't want to show off (who cares) but want the latest tech. Having the latest iPhone is completely different thing. It is more like "if I dont' have the latest model people think I'm a poor loser".

      Ps4 pro sold 30k less than ps5 pro did in jp first week. Your comment is made from ignorance. Pro models are NEVER the bulk of sales like the base model. Ps4 pro sold only 15%-20% out of the total of base ps4 users. Ps5 pro is going to be the same way but seems to be on track to out preform ps4 pro. If you'll give criticism do it logically by talking about the inconvenience of performance on pro enhancements with different games. Some being insanely great upgrades and others no real change..

    I literally chose this morning to buy a standard PS for my son even though I ALWAYS buy the future proof option. In Austrlia, I paid $610 for standard PS5 (Black Friday Costco) Vs no discount anywhere of Pro 1199. Even for me, spending $590 (~50% more) was dumb and unjustifyable even for me. So I think PS is lying about their optimism on Pro, given I would be in the top 5% of people willing to overpay for the best.

The explanation I hear is that there aren't as many units, so devs don't take the time. Do you believe Sony will sell more PS5 Pro's than Series X's to make it worthwhile for the devs to unlock the full potential of the hardware? Because, now they have to make a game for 4 different SKU's with the same total budget.

It's like saying "let's sell an entire community cars, then we'll determine how successful they sell after everyone has already bought one". Why would anyone be buying it after the market it was intended for already owns it. The ps5 pro was never meant to be owned by everyone, same as the ps4 pro. Those that CAN afford it and WANT it, will buy it. But those that CAN'T won't. The moment Sony sells to those that can, they've already got what they wanted. Which is what's happening.

      Many people were expecting Pro to enter PS5 generation, cause they couldn't buy PS5 for at least first 2 years, and didn't want to buy old HW full price. There people were expecting PS5 Pro to be like PS4 Pro - more power for the same price.
      Other people were waiting for PS5 Pro to replace a gaming PC for them, cause GPUs are too expensive.
      All these people were planning for months in advance to buy a PS5 Pro for 500$, not 800 euro. Maybe when it arrived they chose to buy it anyway, not to stay frustrated.
      But I guarantee that all these people will not be waiting for PS6 Pro, and it will sell much worse, if the same situation repeats.
      Sony has almost no good exclusives now, and they mostly all come to PC later. Instead of an overpriced console one can as well buy a gaming PC.

    I have my Pro for couple of days. I upgraded from the slim. Why ? I just bought the PS5 just yet and I thought to myself: I am already late to the party, so go with the pro. I have played Hogwarts legacy on the slim for around 30 hours and it was absolute fine. Now with the pro I have major graphic bugs. In some scenes the room I am standing with the Charakter is glowing pure white with shiny blue and red artifacts. Also the reflection on the surface of the lakes are flimmering and not accurate when it was fine with the PS5 Slim. I am disappointed.
    It’s not that I have a faulty PlayStation because the first time I was seeing those issues, I went to Media Markt the next day and got my pro replaced with a brand new console. Still the same issues…

      I saw the writing on the wall when it came to the insignificant CPU upgrades on the Pro. I felt the same way towards the GPU but I didn't expect it to be this bad in practice. I guess this is what happens when you have diminishing returns and the PS4 Pro did not offer very advanced tech like RT. Games are just too advanced for even the Pro model to catch up on but as usual, it's a console but for 700 dollars? It's not a good look and it's not a good purchase. Maybe for one or two games (literally) but overall, we're getting diminishing returns and that's just not good enough.

      You're forgetting that the initial sales of the PS5 Pro are only the initial sales of the PS5 Pro, not sales over the course of a year or two years to properly gauge how the market as a whole reacts. And really, even the initial sales of the PS5 Pro aren't that great, considering that scalpers are having trouble selling their stock at higher prices.
      I expect PS5 Pro sales to drop off a cliff after the holiday. And I don't expect the PS6 to be $699, not if Sony wants to actually sell the thing in large numbers. It'll be no more than $499. Although, the PS6 will likely be no more powerful than the PS5 if Sony decides to make it a hybrid console, like the Switch, because Nintendo is destroying Sony in Japan right now, and a big part of the reason for that is because of the Switch's size and portability.

Not only the PS5 slim increased in price compare to the original model, but the PS5 Pro is even more expensive. For me, that did impacted my decision to upgrade my original PS5 to the Pro. Selling my PS5 to upgrade meant to spend basically twice the money for not twice the performance. I'll wait till PS6. I also have a gaming PC, so I don't feel the need or FOMO of upgrading.

That $399 PS4 Pro today would retail for $526 plus it included a disc drive! I understand that PS5 Pro includes 2TB of SSD storage, which is definitely more expensive than the cheap 5400RPM laptop hard drive the PS4 Pro was saddled with, but to charge almost double ($700 + $80 disc drive) to match what you got in 2016 is outrageous.

      They will eventually be forced imo. I've been thinking about this (and the GPU market) lately and I think I realized something: forever now, hardware developments have been essentially a spectrum.
      You had advancement and investment all along it. But right now, the is a very distinct diverging towards the extremes.
      On one end you have Nvidia hedging forward towards only the highest end desktop and enterprise stuff. While AMD, ARM and many others are investing towards the bottom end in advancing mobile for the markets who cannot be afforded to be served on the high end.
      ...the middle - where consoles and most GPU sales have always existed - is drying out. Companies no longer can afford to invest there, nor seem interested. And as a result we are seeing less and less compelling tech options, advancements consumer offerings there.
      Instead you have companies (and I suspect Nintendo, Sony and Xbox will follow) seeing a segmented market, where you serve the mass with mobile augmented with cloud, streaming, AI or whatever .. and a halo market who support halo products.
      The rush now is to advance the mobile experience to that which consumers traditionally expect from mid-tier hardware offerings.
      In this, the companies will be forced if they go with AMD or ARM to stay within the confines of the technology they have fabricated and developed (or mobile), or venture with Nvidia or their own inhouse solutions...
      Solutions, I imagine will result in those halo products I described. And that is how we end up in a future, where to satisfy the niche crowd of hardcore halo consumers - while still surviving off the mass market - we end up at two skews: mobile and desktop.
      I suspect Nintendo's Switch, like Steam Deck too - are setting a trend of mobile living room hardware that can be docked to streamed to a TV or Monitor.

      It isn't a base platform, it is for the enthusiast. Sony doesn't need you to buy a Pro, they need you to buy a PS5 and buy software. They don't depend on the Pro and "selling well" can simply mean it is moving at a fluid rate, or even a relative flow to the last Pro console. Also this isn't like when the PS5 launched and shortages are everywhere, they knew before PS5 even launched they were going to have shortages. Everyone was targeting TSMC (AMD, Nvidia, Intel at times, many many more). TSMC wasn't only shut down, but when they came back up, everyone needed their products at the same time. We can probably assume it isn't really difficult for TSMC to fill products to AMD now, and for AMD to design RDNA2 for consoles.
      Everyone knows the PS5 Pro demand is going to be 10-20% of that of a base PS5 model, so expectations and supply are much different. If the PS5 Pro were to even sell 20% of the base model, that is a success and "selling well". The bar is simply different, as are expectations, for the Pro vs the base.

      He is saying it's not worth $700 to him. Further more, it's NOT $200 better. Remember that PS5 Base/Slim got a $50-$100 Price hike years into release depending on region. The PS5 was much cheaper, so it's really a $300 difference.
      ALSO remember that the $700, is MINUS the disc drive which was included in the $500 PS5 your comparing it too. So increase that difference for what your getting versus PS5 Base at launch.
      ALSO realize that in many places (like the US) that's $700 PLUS Federal sales tax, internet sales tax (as he bought his from Sony), electronic tax (depending on State), shipping & insurance (which you pay for when buying from Sony)...
      Meaning he probably paid closer to $750-$770 most likely, and more if he got the drive or stand... which where included with the base PS5 when it launched for $450.
