The PS5 Pro was released last week. We have you on our waydes Launchesasked whether you would buy the console straight away, wait, or whether it would be of no interest to you.

The result surprised even us.

The PS5 Pro is generating a lot of interest from you

First of all, we would like to thank everyone who voted in the survey and commented below the article! The exact question was:Are you buying the PS5 Pro?.

With over 2,300 votes cast, the result looks like this:

AnswerPortion
“No, not even with a price reduction”44 percent
»Yes, but only with a price reduction«37 percent
»Yes, straight to the release«20 percent

Surprisingly, more than half of you who voted are interested in the PS5 Pro. Around one in five people even wanted to buy it straight away when it was released.

The PS5 Pro is one of the most controversial console launches in recent years.This is primarily due to the high price of 800 euros. In addition, it is a digital console without a built-in drive.

You can add an optional drive, but that will cost you around 120 euros extra. The accessory is currently sold out and is therefore offered at higher prices on portals such as eBay.
