PS4 Pro vs. PS4 Specs, Price And Review: Which Console Wins The Game? [WATCH]

Sony has just launched its much-anticipated PlayStation 4 Pro console on Thursday, Nov. 10 and it is expected to be a more powerful version of the existing PS4. For avid gamers, is the new PS4 Pro worth the switch? Read on for a roundup of specs, price and other details on the latest game console from Sony.

Like the PS4 Slim released last September, the PS4 Pro has a similar slanted slim look, but is obviously heavier and sturdier at 11.6 x 2.1 x 12 inches. Another addition is a power LED light bar. The PS4 Pro also brought back the optical S/PDIF port which was missing from the PS4 Slim version. It also has another USB 3.1 port at the back aside from the two in front.

According to The Verge, Sony Interactive Entertainment President Shawn Layden stated that the PS4 Pro was designed for gamers who crave for a gaming experience that has high-end visuals. This is made possible through the PS4 Pro's latest imaging technology.  

The PS4 Pro has the latest upgrade that supports HDR video and gaming. Thus, developers have bolstered graphical fidelity instead of merely cranking up the resolution. It boasts of faster graphics and a 1TB hard drive.

Gamers would be pleased to know that games and accessories of their old PS4 are compatible with the Pro version. The PS4 Pro is fully compatible with all past, present, and future PS4 titles, and vice-versa.  

Based on the review ofGameSpot, the PS4 Pro may be the most powerful console on the market today offering more advanced features. Sadly, the Pro version doesn't support 4k BluRay disks. Meaning, the upgrade only works with HDTV or a new 4K TV to make use of its enhanced processing power. 

What's the price tag for all these add-ons? The PS4 is priced at $299, and the new PS4 Pro version is $100 higher at $399. Do you think the $100 price difference is it worth the upgrade?
