Previously, he was the Senior Editor of Home Entertainment at TechRadar, covering TVs, headphones, speakers, video games, VR and streaming devices. For example, many of the games with Pro patches do boast a sharper image while many also run at higher frame rates compared to the standard PS4. Its slick design and 4K capabilities mean it still performs incredibly well, even when compared to its next-gen equivalent. It's a little more expensive than the regular PS4 was, but that's because it uses slightly different hardware to get better results in terms of performance. There are other important things to mention too, like whether you should grab a PSVR headset to go along with the PS4 Pro.

The system is encased in a matte black shell, similar to the one used on the PS4 Slim released in September 2016. However, this time around you won't find rounded corners along the edges – the PlayStation 4 Pro is sharp in every sense of the word.There's now a light bar built into the touchpad –a nice feature when you don’t want to turn the controller over in your hand to find out what player you are –but more importantly the triggers have been tweaked and it feels a bit lighter in the hand. Plus, as we pointed out in the PlayStation 4 Slim review, the controller can also switch seamlessly between Bluetooth and wired mode when it's connected to the system via USB cable. You won't find an HDMI input port here like you would on the Xbox One, but Sony's workaround to its cable conundrum, PlayStation Vue, is an arguably effective one. We wouldn't say the PS4 Pro's design is a complete copy of the original PS4's, there are a lot of similarities – the first being the decision to keep the console a flat parallelogram. We only point that last part out because it's up to game developers themselves to issue those patches and ultimately utilize the more powerful hardware.

This console has been looked after to a high standard, comes with 2 controllers with a little wear on each. You should also note that Sony's PS4 Pro system has a few deficiencies in the home entertainment department: particularly in not having an Ultra HD Blu-ray player installed. When Sony first unveiled the PS4 Pro, there were jokes that the system felt like two PS4s stacked on top of one another, but the second you pull the system from the box that observation becomes less of a joke and more a fair observation.Another design difference is the silver PlayStation logo that sits in the center of the top surface, adding a nice touch of elegance. PS4 Pro, 1TB, including 2 controllers (black and white), headset, hdmi cable, usb cable, and read dead redemption 2 game.

The PS4 Pro was Sony’s most powerful console before the launch of the PS5, but even then, it doesn’t take away from the fact the Pro is still a significant bit of gaming kit. Loads of games run 4K natively on the PS4, including Red Dead Redemption 2, Marvel’s Spider-Man and No Man’s Sky.

Ethernet, optical audio and PlayStation Camera ports line up along the back next to the power connector. While that might not sound like a huge addition, for a pro gamer it can mean the difference between a win (and a pot of esports prize money) or a loss. We've covered the specs, outlined the capabilities and listed some of the games that are great to play. One final point here: while the exterior is nice, Sony has spent more time working on the inside of the console.The PS4 Pro also uses a bulkier female connector on its power cable to draw more power, instead of the generic two-prong cable Sony has traditionally supplied with every PS4. Inside is a larger 1TB hard drive, which is500GB more than you'll find on the original PS4 or the base model of the PS4 Slim.

Now, it's worth noting that should you want to see what games in 4K HDR look like, you're going to need a 4K HDR TV - your old 1080p screen probably won't see a benefit outside of a few extra frames.On the front of the console, you might notice that there are no touch-capacitive buttons: Sony has decided to ditch the accident-prone pads for more traditional plastic buttons, but they do the job just the same. While the swapping out of a Wi-Fi antenna may not seem like a big deal, it helps the PS4 Pro download games faster: a 160MB game (Pac-Man 256) downloaded in under a minute on a 15Mbps connection, something that should have always been the case but wasn't on the original PS4. It's both a little wider and a little taller than the original PS4, and a fair bit heavier, too (though unless you carry your console around a lot, that's unlikely to matter). Introductions are limited to motor finance, CarMoney Limited will pay us a fixed commission per paid out deal. The only reason for selling is that I dont use it as much as it should be used and it's just going to waste.
