Sony has finally unveiled the PS5 Pro after months of leaks and Sisters Slavespeculation, but the console comes with a hefty price: $700.

Billed as a more powerful, graphically enhanced version of the original PS5, the Pro's price point is sure to raise some eyebrows. At $700, it’s almost as expensive as the base iPhone 16, putting this in line with other moves amid Sony's recent push for higher pricing, from being one of the first companies to charge $70 for games, to hiking the price of DualSense controllers.

It’s no surprise that the news has sparked reactions across X (formerly Twitter) and Reddit, where users are already calling Sony out for what many see as a blatant cash grab.

The major upgrade with the PS5 Pro is its ability to handle high-fidelity modes at a consistent 60fps, which sounds great on paper. But when you consider that the standard PS5 could already achieve similar results by sacrificing some resolution, it starts to feel less like a game-changer. Many users are already questioning whether slightly improved graphics justify the $700 price tag.

In fact, for that kind of money, you could easily snag a custom-built PC with an RTX 3070 on Facebook Marketplace — and that’s exactly what some (read: me) are doing instead.

The PS5 Pro also ditches the disc drive, and to top it off, the vertical stand is sold separately — a move that’s already causing debate among fans. With no major PS5 exclusives pushing the limits of the hardware, many are questioning whether the upgrade is even worth it.

It should be noted that Sony does have an excellent line up of first-party titles from God of War, The Last of Us, Marvel's Spider-Man, and the recently released AstroBot.

"PS5 has no games" aside, the Pro is priced high and looks a little goofy. Only time will tell if this will be a flop or not for Sony.
