If you were thinking of purchasing a PS5 Pro, then now is very much the time to do it, as a couple of UK retailers have the console on special offer with £60 off the current RRP.
Both Argos and John Lewis are selling the console for £639. Argos have an offer where you can spread the cost over twelve months, which works out at £25.68per month, and John Lewis will let you pay for the console within six months with no additional interest.
The PS5 Pro has PSSR upscaling, a 2TB SSD, an upgraded GPU, Wi-Fi 7 Support, and other features to make games feel extra snazzy.
There are still peculiar design choices though, “One bizarre design choice is that the PS5 Pro still wobbles!” said Stefan “Included in the box are two attachable feet to slot into the gilled section, providing two contact points to anything you set the console on, but there’s only one other contact point on the case. It’s certainly far better than the original PS5’s strange mounting disc, which made moving it for any reason a perilous chore (and also let the console wobble very easily), but you still have a tripod and pushing on a corner will wobble it. I believe this should be improved with the disc drive adding a flattened bulge to the bottom, but it’s no less barmy.”
