For 2024, the PS5 Pro is designed for better performance compared to the standard PS5. It offers gaming with 4K Ultra HD picture quality and enhanced AI-upscaling at a higher refresh rate of up to 120Hz for silky smooth and more fluid motion with no lag. For the PS5, you could only pick one or the other; either 4K video quality or 120Hz refresh rate, but with the PS5 Pro, you can pick both for more immersive gaming.
Meanwhile, the PS5 Pro also has advance ray tracing for detailed in-game reflections, shadows, and illuminations, while the overall gaming experience is deeper with sharp true-to-life graphics.
