Just a thought; Sony Interactive Entertainment officially announced that they will completely discontinue physical disc production for all new games starting in January 2028. Just so you know and can consider that too before you buy, depending how long you will keep it.

The thing is you can play any disc you got before January 2028 on either of the versions, after that if you buy games they are only digitally delivered as Sony stop selling discs. If you plan to keep your Playstation after that and buy games for it you need a console that handles that, I would personally go for the Pro version as I tend to keep a console for 5-10 years, but that is me, decide what type of economy you have and how long you will buy new games for it as you now know Sony`s plans for new releases after January 2028, that is only 18 month from now.

Yes, this is correct. You must have a high-end 4K monitor with around 150 GHz and up... So that you can use and maximize your pro version.
