Sony PS4 Pro Price & Specs —Sony PS4 Pro is a more sophisticated game console than its other PS4 counterparts. It was released in late 2016 just about the same time as the PS4 Slim, which is now, most times, called PS4 (without ‘Slim’ because it is believed to have phased out the old PS4, released in 2013).

The Sony PS4 Pro specifications are similar in various ways to the old PS4 and the Slim version, only that some of its features are more advanced. Two of these advancements are evident in its higher CPU and GPU — the processor speed of P4 Pro is 2.1GHz compared to the 1.6GHz of the other variants and the graphics processor is 4.2 TFLOP compared to 1.84 TFLOP of the other variants.

As a result of these higher CPU and GPU power of the Sony PS4 Pro, the gaming console provides more efficiency in running games, with an improved graphics performance. Below are Sony PS4 Pro key specs:
