Yes, secured 30th Anniversary Pro bundle on September 26th. I game most on PC (5800x3D/ 7900 XTX Nitro), but this will be a very nice upgrade in the home theater area.
@@AKSBSU damn I'm jealous they look so good 👌 I bought 2 regular PS5 Pros, one in my bedroom and the other for the lounge room to replace my launch model PS5s.
@@craigsampson3386 I actually secured it while I was in a layover waiting almost the entire time on my phone. I had 3 minutes before it was my turn to board on a 4-hour flight when I finally got in there and quickly purchased it.
Yeah let's just say my last console was the ps3, I've been messing around a little bit on the Xbox game pass cloud, but my PS5 pro is absolutely drop-dead amazing gorgeous running through a Samsung TV qled, ghost of tsushima which a course is an older game, just looks jaw-dropping I can't wait to see more!!!
The ps5 pro in Sweden costs $1100.(Just the ps5 pro, no stands, no discdrive just the ps5 pro..) I can buy a gaming PC in Sweden with a 4060ti för the same price, with a discdrive....
@@jammycjj Kinda said that wrong but ok. Not sure how it's relevant to the conversation around a minimalistic very pricey upgrade for a console. Please explain?
@@Adjustmentt well aaackutally, there are regular M.2 SSD drives and then there are M.2 SSD drives that are ALSO NVMe, simply called NVMe drives. One uses SATA on M.2, the other uses PCIe on M.2. Quite different things, and plenty of M.2 slots out there DO NOT support NVMe drives and instead only support simple M.2 SSDs so knowing the difference is important.
Depends on which ssd your talking about. ssd sata 3 is still heavily used in the world and that's completely something else. So the correct pronouncement for these systems is > "M.2 NVME SSD Gen 4." So it's an SSD but there were manyyyyy different ones before that.
Ya no, my buddy got a pro one and I brought my two 4k 60hrz Asus monitors from my PC to his place with my PS5 and there was miniscule, barely noticeable difference in a side by side comparison. We ran multiple PS5 games in different modes. It is not worth it period.
@@LR0278 I'm fine, do you need me to lay it out in simpler terms for you; you'll be able to see the difference better on a bigger TV rather than your tiny little monitors
you can actually swap the M.2 drive with the games still on it. works perfectly fine. i would make sure that you login in on the ps5 pro first just to be safe, but when doing this, the next time you turn the console on it will boot up with the “Rebuilding Database” loading screen, which should inly take a minute or two, and then all you games should be there and ready to go. just download all your save data and you’re golden.
I bought a high-end PC two years ago and made the full switch 1 year ago . I have a regular PS5 and have no need for a pro . I never touch my PS5 anymore. And like you said after investing $1,000 after a few accessories that's a bit pricey. Might as well get a decent PC at that point.
Great Video. My PS5 Pro and disk drive are coming in the mail today, and I'll pull the SSD out of my current 5 to put into the Pro. Just wasn't sure if I should do a Data transfer before or after I move the drive. Guess I'll find out soon enough :P
@Destin, I appreciate your unboxing video. I just got my PS5 pro, and I was curious how to install the SSD and disc drive. That looks much easier than I thought it was going to be. 👍🏻 thank you.
First pro console ever I’ve not bothered getting. 700 without a disc drive absolutely killed it for me. Never mind the fact the minimal upgrade just isn’t worth it
@ Nope here in the UK it’s still available everywhere. No one in their right mind is paying £700 for a console without a disc drive for minimum improvement.
I don’t mind those future proofs features that doesn’t seem to be making any sense right now, also don’t mind the price going up so high, all I care of is “Are You fricking Kidding me?” double the price and I still have to buy the Disc drive? My PS5 still works perfectly.
@@wolfsrainpet base PS5 is good enough for me. Not seen a big difference with the pro. They have plenty in stock so not hard to get if for some reason I change my mind.
Well now you will be seeing a lot of windows updates and troubleshooting and if you are lucky enough you see one of the not so rare blue screens 😂 have fun!
Ps5 pro has been fantastic for me . Days gone unpatched looks incredible. Been playing last of us 2 remastered with uncapped framerate mode and was hitting 120fps it was insane ❤.
They will NOT understand how THE PRO has changed the quality of all the games, and its just in the baby stage. OMG !! DAYS GONE looks so realistic, sharp, and plays even better. Keep having fun and enjoy the pro, because we earned it, my friend !!
I`m playing TLOU2 as well. But didn`t see it running in 120 pfs though. How is that? My TV is an LG OLED C1 and i have the C4 if i`m not mistaken. Even though, i am super happy the way it is. Super smooth e incredibly beautiful OMG. No regrets at all. I skipped tha PS5 base model, so, to me, it was a great deal.
Thank You for the video. Do you think by Christmas 2025-2026 they will release a PS5 Pro with the drive all ready installed and keep the price the same?
It's a small critique, but the packaging for the Playstation is so cheap... the xbox is packaged like a premium product, and the Playstation looks like it came from temu
Definitely agree. I'm more of a Playstation player but I buy every generation of Xbox also. The unboxing of the Xbox Series X and presentation was awesome. Really made you feel like you purchased a premium product.
I suspect that disc drive is going to be used for the PS6 as well so I went ahead and bought one before they become rare. As for the PS5 Pro, i don't need to upgrade unless it gets a deep sale this holiday.
Loving mine! Playing the crew motorfest on it and wow. Night and dsybdofference from the base ps5 and series x. No comparison! Everything is sooo smooth and temporal stable and crisp. It truly is a gsme changer with PSSR this is one of those games that clearly is a big win over series x and base ps5. I own the gsme on all platforms. It looks way mkre setsuled thsn series x running in the resolution mode at 30 fps. This thing runs 60 fps with greater detail than 30 fps on series x and base ps5. That pssr is like magic!
The PS5 Pro would have been amazing if it released day one. Now years after the base model launched it doesn't feel 'high end' enough to justify the price. If it drops in price in a year or two I might get it as my 1st PS 5 and plow through the build up PS5 catalog.
Let me help the people in the comments that don't have an OLED. I have a 75 inch TCL Q lead that I bought a few years ago. It gives beautiful 4K HDR colors but nothing beats OLED. I got the PS5 Pro and I don't see a difference. IDE rather have saved that ps5 pro money and got a Oled instead.a Oled with ps5 is a better upgrade then a Qled with a ps5 pro
I think PlayStation needs to take notes from Xbox because let's just be honest the presentation when you open the Xbox series X was much better than the opening of the PlayStation 5 Pro.
Really? At least the pro looks and feels way mkre premium tha. Series x. I have them all and the series x is a eye sore compared to pro. The pro looks like the Ferrari of consoles and series x looks loke a box truck.
@dsidebotham The Pro Reminds me of a Taco Shell, at least the series X can stand up vertically unlike the PS5 pro, you don't have to spend $30 to buy a vertical stand for Xbox, I'm just saying that Xbox actually put more effort into the box opening presentation for their Console, unlike Sony they didn't really put much effort into the presentation of the PlayStation 5 Pro because if you look at the unboxing of this video it looks like Sony put the pro in an egg carton.
@@dsidebotham plus I'm not really a fan of the design of the PlayStation 5 or the PlayStation 5 Pro personally I just don't like the flashy look cuz it just looks like something that could break if you drop it. I pretty much like the PS4 because it's pretty much simple and the console was very durable if you dropped it especially its pro version and it pretty much look like its predecessor the PS2 in my opinion the PS4 is the direct successor of the PS2, but when I look at the PS5 it just reminds me too much of the PS3. And I personally didn't like the design of the PS3 either.
@@JeannieLove What are you on about. I'm pretty sure you can get a disc drive within that price and still outclass the PS5"Pro" And disc drives haven't been relevant on a PC in years. You don't use your PC to watch bluray movies.
I'm having serious problems with gaps when trying to attach the disc drive cover/plate. One of the clips on the left side is still partially visible and there is a gap.
Use a cloth or something soft underneath when you open it. These things are easily scratched, don't do that! but you just did. Don't you care about that?
If you think you would ever want a Pro, sell your OG PS5 now and get as much as you can for it. I find it hard to believe that people subscribing to these channels are not interested in the most powerful console out there. I barely play on my PS5Pro or Series X; but I’m an enthusiast. That’s what enthusiasts do.
Destin.....after you've played couple of games you could talk about the pro fan noise......its not ps4/ps4pro loud but a good portion louder than the base model
Close to 1000 for a PlayStation that does 4k 60fps (which is what base ps5 was advertised as) or upscaled at 120fps. You could build a fully upgradable pc for the same money and get a better version of the games with more display options etc on the pc. Also using some pre-owned parts it would be possible to get much better and at least future proof pc, as god knows what price point the ps6 will come in at in a few years' time.
AWESOME DESTIN! Congratulations on the PS5 PRO and sharing your unboxing with us. I am excited for you. Cheers. I plan on getting a PS5 Slim disc drive console for Christmas.
In most countries in Europe it costs freaking 1100$ . If they included a disc drive in that price tag, I would consider buying it, this is just getting ugly now... In this video, you actually said ,,...they were nice enough to send a new plate(with the disc drive)''(???). So as you can see, they got us used to selling everything separately, now some people think it's nice of them(LOL) to include a PLATE WITH A DISC DRIVE. I'm done with Sony
This console is for people who have never bought a Playstation 5. Like a lot of xbox owners. It is a powerful sexy machine. yeah its expensive, but it is a great piece of hardware that rivals PC games.
Hi The $30 Dollar stand should be Included in the Price with Pro Model, If you upgrading from a PS5 Slim With A drive. The Drive and Drive Cover will work from the PS5 Disc version 👍👍
So spend $700 for a console where the main justification from everyone one was "iT ComeS WiTh a 2 Tb SsD". And then spend even more on a new drive?!!? Thats BONKERS!!!!!!!
Unless you have a lot of disposable income, then I don't see the point of getting a PS5 Pro when you have an original PS5. Even if you did have that much disposable income, you'd probably be better served just saving some money and getting a top-of-the-line computer instead and just stick with the original PS5. Maybe if you didn't have a PS5 then it might be worthwhile to get the PS5 Pro and you have a little bit of extra disposable income to afford the extra cost, it would be worth it for some.
In enjoying mine whoever says there isn't a major difference is lying, are thier tv is so so but I own every ps5 pro game that is enhanced so I have games to play. And I didn't play some because I knew the pro was coming.
The disk drive being scauplt to hell just like the PS5 when it first came out - Talk about underestermating the demaid SONY. Can they get anything right this year .... anything at all.
The trick with the PS5 plates is to pull the plate away at the PS logo with quite a bit of effort. Then slide the plate in the upwards direction of the console. It actually comes off pretty easy once you figure out how much force to apply when pulling outwards from the PS logo. Other youtubers have confirmed the PS5 Revision / Slim plate's top half do not work on the pro. The top half is slightly larger for the Pro from the slim. But the bottom half is the same and can be swapped between the 2.
There’s no way I’m paying $700+ for any console that doesn’t have a disc drive, if this is the way gaming is going then I’m tapping out. I’ll stay with my series x & original ps5 to they don’t work anymore & I’m done with gaming . ✌🏼
Wait? I thought the poll decided that people didn't want to see a PS5 Pro? What is the point of a poll if you were gonna do a video anyway? 😂 Unless i missed something...

Close to 1000 for a PlayStation that does 4k 60fps (which is what base ps5 was advertised as) or upscaled at 120fps.

Anyone else try installing the disc drive and not hearing that click? I dont want to push too hard as I am afraid I am going to break something.
The plates are push and pull, push and pull everyone just thinks you pull them
When will ps6 come out
The Pro stands for Professional Scalpers.
AWESOME DESTIN! Congratulations on the PS5 PRO and sharing your unboxing with us. I am excited for you. Cheers.
I plan on getting a PS5 Slim disc drive console for Christmas.
Looks super cool
In most countries in Europe it costs freaking 1100$ . If they included a disc drive in that price tag, I would consider buying it, this is just getting ugly now...
In this video, you actually said ,,...they were nice
enough to send a new plate(with the disc drive)''(???). So as you can see, they got us used to selling everything separately, now some people think it's nice of them(LOL) to include a PLATE WITH A DISC DRIVE. I'm done with Sony
Careful Destin you might lose some subs over this lol…. Did you ever apologize for saying there’s no Xbox tax
Can you place a disc drive in the xbox series x digitale?
This console is for people who have never bought a Playstation 5. Like a lot of xbox owners. It is a powerful sexy machine. yeah its expensive, but it is a great piece of hardware that rivals PC games.
Congrats dude
What is the M2 Drive and why is he changing it?
SSD storage expansion
First PS5 and I got to say this thing is amazing
Hi The $30 Dollar stand should be Included in the Price with Pro Model, If you upgrading from a PS5 Slim With A drive. The Drive and Drive Cover will work from the PS5 Disc version 👍👍
So spend $700 for a console where the main justification from everyone one was "iT ComeS WiTh a 2 Tb SsD".
And then spend even more on a new drive?!!?
Thats BONKERS!!!!!!!
I think the main justification is the power of the console.
It's probably the most noticeable upgrade. They also upgraded the WiFi. Maybe this ps5 pro was never meant to be anything major.
Love that stand!
I wish Sony put out a Spider-Man 2 version. I can’t ditch me Spider-Man console 😢
Unless you have a lot of disposable income, then I don't see the point of getting a PS5 Pro when you have an original PS5. Even if you did have that much disposable income, you'd probably be better served just saving some money and getting a top-of-the-line computer instead and just stick with the original PS5. Maybe if you didn't have a PS5 then it might be worthwhile to get the PS5 Pro and you have a little bit of extra disposable income to afford the extra cost, it would be worth it for some.
Don't you need a $1000+ TV too?
Destin, the Xbots are unhappy that you got a PS5 Pro. 😂
They are burning there Xboxes 😂.
@@residentstevethey're desperately trading in their Xbox's in the hope of getting a Playstation Pro 😂
Nah they're probably playing Death Stranding and enjoying life like normal people.
@@jgadiaz there's nothing enjoyable about owning an Xbox 🤦🏿♂️
@@davidadams3119 dude that only makes you sound like a zealot.. But I was taught to respect other people choices so I leave you to it
In enjoying mine whoever says there isn't a major difference is lying, are thier tv is so so but I own every ps5 pro game that is enhanced so I have games to play. And I didn't play some because I knew the pro was coming.
700 dollars and no disc drive??? Reviews have shown that there is really no difference between the older model and this newer one Waste of money!!!!!
The disk drive being scauplt to hell just like the PS5 when it first came out - Talk about underestermating the demaid SONY. Can they get anything right this year .... anything at all.
The trick with the PS5 plates is to pull the plate away at the PS logo with quite a bit of effort. Then slide the plate in the upwards direction of the console. It actually comes off pretty easy once you figure out how much force to apply when pulling outwards from the PS logo.
Other youtubers have confirmed the PS5 Revision / Slim plate's top half do not work on the pro. The top half is slightly larger for the Pro from the slim. But the bottom half is the same and can be swapped between the 2.
U know what looks even better? Asus ProArt 4070ti=)
There’s no way I’m paying $700+ for any console that doesn’t have a disc drive, if this is the way gaming is going then I’m tapping out. I’ll stay with my series x & original ps5 to they don’t work anymore & I’m done with gaming . ✌🏼
Good video Destin
Won’t get one. Don’t even have a ps5. But fun to watch
this is a pick up when it drops to 300-400.
Love watching xbot say the ps5 pro was not good but they end up buying it lmao
Yeah now dozens of other potential customers won't buy and he probably making the money back with his unboxing/review. Not that hard to comprehend 😂
I got mine yesterday had everything ready. Got it set up with 2TB, and disc drive and vertical stand. So stoked god of war looks STUNNING.
Wait? I thought the poll decided that people didn't want to see a PS5 Pro? What is the point of a poll if you were gonna do a video anyway? 😂 Unless i missed something...
WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY!!!! No disc drive..10% performance increase..PS5 + PS5 Pro..get a PC !!
😴😴😴😴😴😴😴
It's remarkable how little hair you have on your arms, I'm jealous
