Hello.. Surely you have notice that PS5 PRO is coming

But if the $$ is 1k ringgit more over Ps5 slim digital version.. Would you consider this upgrade.??

I am in little dilemma stage

Now using a Ps4.. Thinking of upgrade to ps5
slim digital version.. My budget is all ready but With this Ps5 pro surface up.. Putting me of holding back my purchase of Ps5 slim digital version

Please give me some advise....go for it.. Ps5 slim digital version.. Or wait for Ps5 pro.

Please comment reply.. On your view

Thank you.. Cheers

1k more than slim is too expensive

At most just several hundreds more

I recommend waiting for pro..or else your mind will always be "i should hv gotten pro for better image quality and fps"

Ps4 upgrade to ps5 pro, maybe la. I'm using Ps5 from second batch till now, barely used it recently. There's nothing must have on the PS5.

Most also I would say Spider-Man 2.

then 2 years later PS6 comes out lol

Hello.. Thanks for your advise

I am referring to the latest news that Ps5 pro is going to launch $$ at about 600us vs the 499us for the Ps5 slim digital version

Giving the fact maybe is going to be about 100 to 150 us different between the 2.. So I guess is going to be about 1k ringgit in our local market..

even if it comes out, it will take a while for Asian/local units to be available, not counting scalpers.

Alternatively, you can try getting a used ps5.

Wait for ps5 pro

If u can afford then go for pro. If not i reckon a price drop for the standard version

Get the slim digital only, if you have many ps4 disc game then buy the add on bluray drive

There will always be something better on the horizon

TS needs to decide when to stop waiting and just buy

Yes.. 1000% agreed with you.. I can go straight to buy today or tomorrow.. After all my budget is all ready... But it is always good to get some advice from here.

Thank you..

Unless pro has significant improvement, i doubt current gen still capable of 4k60 on those high graphic demand AAA games.

Best also improve those FSR/DLSS thing now :\

So if RM1k more i rather just get normal PS5

Buy the PS5 now and play... PS5 Pro come out then sell off your old PS5.. U can sell RM 1.8k also ppl will buy

Maybe buy switch or steam deck to pass time first. If ps5 pro really announce this month then you can also buy ps5 pro.

I think 3199 will be the magic number for the pro with drive

Bloody hell $700....here sure 3299 to 3499 without a disk drive. Crazy 🤪

Yeah....can forget about upgrade my PS4 Pro to PS5 Pro with tat kind of price...personally I cannot see huge difference in the graphic also unless if I pause the game and enjoy the scenery......now waiting for PS5 to drop price a bit then can buy it liao.....

price drop? you must be joking. probably u need to wait for 2nd hand or regret sales.


PS5 new slogan should be "PS5, not affordable for everyone"

Nope Im not joking....isn't it the trend? New model come out then old model will have some price adjustment.....just like how last time PS4 pro come out then PS4 normal model price adjustment.....same as any handphone model....

so hoping for some price adjustment becoz even if I buy PS5 Pro also no use if my TV is ciplak or those low end model......

did you miss the news of price increase for PS5? probably they foresee this.. even it drop also drop back to original price or slight lower only... it;s better you consider 2nd hand as i saw carousell quite numbers of people selling their unit after the announcement

If I were you, just wait for the Pro version to be available. After playing Black Myth Wukong, I realised extra juice is needed for a better gaming experience.

If the wait really is killing you, then go buy the Slim straight up. No point of thinking much as there'll be a "better" technology in the future.

Yes I'm aware of it but I could understand the price increase due to lack of semicon that time......

yes for the bolded part its better than nothing for me becoz you can't expect a sudden drastic price drop right....

I seldom consider for 2nd hand due to not so good exp with 2nd hand before this especially electronic devices......so I'll w8 to see any movement from Sony side becoz RM3k++ for a console surely will get all ppl rage and they might change their stance a bit......
