A Complete Comparison Between PS5 And PS5 Pro & Price In Pakistan

Since its launch, the PlayStation 5 (PS5) arrived with a bang and effectively changed the face of the gaming experience. While everyone is excited about the upcoming PS5 Pro, it has appealed to gamers wondering how the two consoles will compare. This will be an extensive comparison to help you decide whether to buy or upgrade while discussing the PS5 price in Pakistan.

PS5 is futuristic in design and comes in white and black. Its tall and curved design is a sight to behold; its size may, however, cause problems if you are working with a compact setup. The console also comes with user-customizable faceplates, allowing gamers to dress their consoles as they want. Officially, the details relating to the look of the PS5 Pro are scarce; however, leaks indicate it might follow the PS5 styling, with some minor alterations for improved airflow and cooling. Because of upgraded hardware, the Pro will likely be bulkier, but it should have a more efficient layout. If the PS5 Pro design gets any tweaks, they would be very minor and mostly fit the traditional PS5 look, which is not going to change much.

PS5 is powered by an AMD Zen 2 CPU with 8 cores running at 3.5 GHz, a customized AMD RDNA 2 GPU with performance up to 10.28 TFLOPs, 16 GB of GDDR6 RAM, and 825 GB SSD for ultra-fast loading of games. The console offers 4K gaming up to 120 FPS, with ray tracing enabled for realism. The PS5 Pro, on the other hand, may contain a slightly upgraded AMD chipset with faster clocking, superior RDNA 3 GPU exceeding 20 TFLOPs, and possibly a bigger SSD, likely 1TB or larger. It is going to be able to natively render 4K at 120 FPS.

The PS5 by now gives a stellar gaming experience with exclusive titles such as "Demon's Souls" and "Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart." The Dual Sense controller, with its adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, enhances immersion in gameplay. There is backward compatibility with most PS4 games, leaving players with a multitude of choices. The PS5 Pro is set to extend the experience with improved graphics, faster loading times, and possibly advanced VR technology that would make any PlayStation VR fan embark on a dream. While both consoles present amazing gaming opportunities, the Pro may entice those whose first choice is raw performance. 

As of now, the PS5 is being offered in Pakistan at market prices from 200,000 PKR to 250,000 PKR, based on the variant (Digital Edition or Standard with disc drive) and availability. Prices may vary due to import taxes and demand. The PS5 Pro is rumored to enter the market at a greater price point, maybe around the 280,000 PKR to 320,000 PKR range. This price will include added features and performance upgrades, thereby justifying the price difference. For now, the PS5 is a more economical choice, while the PS5 Pro will be for those who don't mind paying more for premium features.
