PS4 Pro SETUP & REVIEW (4K HDR) 

I think the main thing to take away from this is that , there really is no huge change in graphics when It comes to games. That being said, if you have a 4K TV, and just have a regular PS4 that outputs a max resolution of 1080p, you're "stretching" 1080p content across a 4K screen, so it's not going to look good. The PS Pro fixes that using super sampling, anti aliasing and upscaling to reduce the effects of 1080p "stretching"

The PS4 Pro is freaking fantastic. I'm running it on a Sony Bravia 55' Ultra 4K television, and the difference in graphics is stunning. Even when I walk right up to the screen, there's no hint of pixelating or jagged edges. And the color is phenomenal. Ratchet and Clank looks like a whole new game. If you have a quality 4K television, you owe it to yourself to go Pro. You'll be so glad you did. Can't wait to see the difference with the VR headset, but the damn things are sold out everywhere!

I love it when he says (Heych)DMI

PS4 pro + 4k TV for life❤

Who is seeing this video and still don't have a PS4 pro?

Another great video. I wouldn't bother I just got a PS4 slim and Its more than I'll ever need especially since I don't have a 4K tv.

Something you should mention - games like Uncharted 4 and TLOU are getting converted into 4K - they aren't games being created with 4K in mind, like Horizon or Mass Effect Andromeda will be - so what you're seeing here isn't the full potential of the PS4 Pro. I'd say in about a year or so, devs will really let the capability show.

I was holding off I do have an hdr 4k This makes my choice easier thank you

Look who is killing it!!!! Hope to see you at another RU-vid event soon :D

I'm actually gonna subscribe. Idk why but I am.

I wish I had any console.... Edit: I GOT A PS4 PRO (2020) I came back to this comment after 3 years and it has 100 likes lmao

Pro is best for new buyers

Don't know what people are moaning about no 4k Blue ray player, i work in tech store and no one bloody buys 4k dvds anyway. 4k blue rays are gonna be so expensive

R. I. P. HDR when you get flashed in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege

Don’t apologize bro. Do your thing, that’s why we’re here.your video is informative 👌🏿

Got my PRO today, Ratchet and Clank and Last of Us look incredibly sharp and my 4k tv doesn't even support hdr, also in VR games that have been patched like Playroom, Rush of Blood and Thumper there is a huge difference in clarity. Playroom VR looks muuuch better on the PRO and some stuff is noticeable now that otherwise looked like a blurry mess on the standard Ps4. I definitely recommend the purchase, youtube videos are compressed so it really doesn't do it justice.

Why do British people pronounce it "Hayche" DMI?

Thank very much for the review , I will just keep my PS3 with 1080p tv and be happy :)

I have a PS4 pro 1 TB question is is it native 4K or do I have to make it that way cause a 4K tv and also can my pro play blu ray??

Bought a 55 ks8000. Best thing I did. For ps4 pro. Or even pc gaming. Colors and blacks are superb

Ratchet and Clank sold me on the Pro it looked like a Pixar movie it was so good. Just wait until developers get to grips with it moving forward.

In my opinion if you want to buy a new console, ps4 pro would be a good choice, because it's the same price as old ps4 at launch but offers more future-prooingf and I also recommend PS VR because you are missing alot of fun.

got mine within only 1 day after ordering. Cant open it till Xmas tho no biggy will play on the old/ps4 for its last remaining days

Finally someone who isn't going ga-ga over 4k with the PS4 Pro! I know this video is a year old now, but I've recently upgraded to a 4k tv and decided to upgrade my PS4 too based on all the other videos saying it was a great idea with a 4k set. I noticed very little difference between my TV upscaling from 1080p on the original PS4 to checkerboard 4k or whatever quasi-4k resolution above 1080 games run in. HDR makes a bigger difference than the bump in resolution, but the original PS4 also does HDR. A 4k HDR TV with decent resolution handling tech (the Samsungs, Sonys etc) means the difference is just not noticeable to the untrained eye. Glad it's not just me...

im glad most people I know are able to enjoy the things they have

Upgraded from slim to ps4pro . night and day difference

Very helpful, professional, and hot! 😃

I love how you say 'monitor' it looks like manytr xD

Thanks a lot. This video was so helpful and safe to say I'm happy with my new PS4 Pro!

I have 60" a 4k HDR TV, and it looks amazing, now ive played pc on 4k and ps4 pro on 4k , and for a console, it is definitely up there,

yey you really got one! thanks for the review :) great job!

I just can't wait to see the Xbox Scorpio also great review man :D

very little difference when upgrading the Pro with an SSD, unfortunately. Load times ARE faster but certainly not fast enough to justify the huge cost of a 1TB SSD. With the PS4, storage is vastly more important than speed. The 2TB Seagate (ST2000LM007) drive would be a much smarter investment

I love that you have mentioned two games that I am highly anticipating. "Days Gone" and "Horizon Zero Dawn".

I'm glad you got the pro just before. I prefer that model instead of the slim I got but no worries since I've been having fun with it. Hope that console is still functional. Nice unboxing video.

You have the same tv that is in my living room.

YUV420 BlazeIt! Damn.... I just had to do that....

Now the way i feel the fact is that you have a console that can capture 4K with the Pro now what you can't capture is native 4k but bottom line you will get a resolution that is pretty dam close to native 4k with proper TV of course just like you do on PC but without a 4k monitor you won't get 4K as well as if the games doesn't support 4k then same applies. Bottom line hardware wise PS4 pro is most powerful console atm and allow you to play games at 1080p and with 60 fps without a hitch which is what majority of the gamers want any platform to provide no matter console or PC. A Gaming platform at $400 that can handle 1080p and a steady 60fps is a complete steal never mind other features and it reaching resolutions pretty dam close to native 4k. For the fact that it has more hard drive space and most likely faster hard drive , faster rams from what i hear too, better cpu and gpu that allows for better resolutions and frame rates all that is good enough reason to buy and recommend the Ps4 PRO regardless if you care about native 4k or 4k gaming or not hardware wise what your getting is worth the $400 dollar asking price all day and that is coming from someone who owns a high end gaming PC. Consoles are surely headed in right directions and in better place then it was last generation and the closest to PCs hardware wise it has ever been but of course fact that consoles are standardized means it still will never reach the potential a Pc can reach but then again thats fine because it doesn't have too people love consoles for exactly what it is and provides a platform that is easy to afford, play, and maintain and that is why they are standardized in first place.

Great vid, I have a Phillips 120hz 4k tv, but it has no hdr. Is the resolution gonna be 4k when it is played?

i can definitely see the difference between the blacks and whites and great lighting

everyone in comments talking about buying 4k tvs while i am here with 720p in my country 4k tvs cost 2000$ fucking hell is everyone rich in comment section

Is the resolution makes a difference from being on automatic

can PS4 pro users online gameshare with normal PS4 players ?

Actually playing Horizon's Zero Down in PS4 PRO and SAMSUNG KS7000 and it blows my mind, simply amazing! You only see really well HDR when you see it in front of you, any video will show you anything real.

Questions or anybody who knows the answer: I'm getting a PS4 Pro very soon and was wondering if games like UN4 and Horizon ZD and BF1, do they automatically know that your playing on a Pro and play on the Pro settings or do you have to do that manually?

Uncharted 4 looks fantastic

have you tried ps4 pro and 4k monitor? im looking to buy a panel for ps4 pro,not sure tv or monitor

The important thing is dont try to play pro on 1080p tv and cry about no difference at all. You need 4k res and at least large tv to see difference.

I've had my Xbox one X since May 2019 just ordered a pro today get it tomorrow

Does the controller you first use to set your ps4 up automatically connect and doesnt need to be paired?

This video is kind of old, I found the HDMI UHD color section under external device manager section in general setting on my samsung TV. Good job there, old but is still gold

i own one and its completely worth it.

for god sake people why do you need a bluray player? it's a gaming console! PS4 PRO is totally worth it: since it is twice as powerful as the og ps4, and it comes with 1TB. Also, why do you need 4K? why are you sad just because the graphics are upscaling? even if it's real 4K, it would run at 30fps which is bad. 4K is good when it is stable and smooth. 1080p with 60fps is way better, and I rather sacrifice graphics for fps! Moreover, HDR TVs over 50-inch of size increases input lag and it's way more expensive, so I will just get a 43-inch 4K TV without HDR. I want smoothness over nicer and more natural color! HDR is nothing mind blowing, you will get used to it like it's nothing.

Thank you so much! I had no idea how to turn the hdr on until now.

Thanks for your upload. I have a pro and 4k but I had no idea how to get them working together (I am not very bright). thanks again.

Hey man if I keep the resolution in auotomatic the games I play still look 4k or not?

Don't let this guy in this video discourage you on buying a 4K TV and a PlayStation 4 Pro. When I upgraded from a PlayStation 4 to a playstation pro with the 4K TV. I told myself I would never go back to where I was at. The TV and the playStation pro it's a must get together that's if you like a lot of graphics and detail. I don't know if the host of the video is an Xbox fanboy? But I'm telling you from my experience. The TV and the pro it's the best thing that happened to me in gaming. Plus PlayStation 4 Pro got the boost mode setting that makes your quality better. But that works with certain games such as this game he choose to put up. Now this game we looking at now needs boost mode and he probably doesn't have it on. Because at that time when they made this game they wasn't thinking about 4K gaming on the on console's. If your game already looking good as far as the graphics and detail. It's no need to turn on boost mode. So don't let this guy discourage you. I have both systems and I love my playstation 4 Pro better with that TV.

I'm still trying to get a ps4 and there already releaseing Pro 😖

In 2018 ps4 pro makes more sense than it was in 2016, lost of 4k ps4 pro enhance videgames now, great time

I live in Portugal (stuff here cost a bit more than the rest of europe example tv phones games) and i bought a 4k uhd hdr samsung 30 inch tv for 500€. Also bought a ps4 pro for 399€. Very good price for a console with 4.2TF power. Ps4 pro runs games at dynamic (or static on some game) 2k (1440p) and 3k (1880p) that is then upscaled with checkboard tecnique to near 4k results which is very nice. Some games have native 4k yes but most come with 2-4k dynamic resolution that tend to keep stable at some resolution in beetween (depending on the game) and then upscaled to 4k + hdr. Also many games are comming out with 1080p 60fps option too which is nice :) I love my ps4 pro :)

ROG Swift PG27UQ Gaming Monitor - 27” 4K (3840 x 2160), 144Hz, HDR, G-SYNC™

Does this device requires a 4k tv.. One question :-).please Can it work on a regular tv please help me

sony is eating up more marketshare with the pro.. so by the time scorpio comes out- many people will overlook it due to price point, and because of a lack of exclusives (everything on xbox is also on pc), and because of the fact that they already have a ps4 and don't want to pay for online for two systems.. my prediction is scorpio will be dead in the water

I bought a PS4 Pro and I have never owned a PS4. I am a fanboy of consoles. I have buyers remorse though from purchasing the PS4 Pro. As I already own a Wii-U and Xbox one first gen. I like the knowledge of having a powerful console. I look forward to buying the Nintendo switch as I enjoy first party nintendo games. I wish I would of not bought the PS4 Pro and instead bought a digital camera for the same price as the PS4 Pro. I don’t really game all that much as I find myself just watching people play the video games I like on youtube. I get the same satisfaction as watching other players play video games on youtube as I do playing the games myself. I grew up with consoles from a vast generation of decades. The NES being my first console. I don’t know if I will buy Xbox Scorpio at this present time ? I want to buy the Nintendo Switch for the mario and Zelda games and perhaps metroid.

very helpful review on tv settings. I had no idea I needed to change the picture option. thanks!

Everybody talks 4k hdr and graphics, but TVs have bad response times... That alone i dont get a 4k hdr TV... That response time is very important for games!

Not joking did you get a 4k hdmi cord

Honestly people, I wouldn't waste my money on the PS4 Pro. Most reports are saying that the PS4 Pro doesn't make a big difference, and even the 4K mode displays a softness in the visuals, detracting from the whole point of 4K in the first place. Many reputable channels are mentioning that the 4K mode on PS4 Pro has a softness to it, not sharp! "Checkerboard upscaling" is proving to be incompetent, very disappointing! And three things to consider, the PS4 doesn't allow you to play Audio CDs (very evil stunt on Sony's part), and it doesn't have a 4K Blu-ray player, and the PS4 controller is a sham, badly designed, the Microsoft controller is much better with superior contours, the PS4 controller gives me wrist-ache all the time and it has bad battery-time, I'm gonna wait for Microsoft's Scorpio console... FYI... "Xbox executive Aaron Greenberg has discussed the upcoming Xbox console, saying it's capable of delivering "true 4K." "People who have spent thousands of dollars on a high-end PC are getting that experience. How do we bring that to scale in a console in your living room? That's a big part of what Project Scorpio is about," he added. Microsoft has said that all of its first-party games will run at a native 4K. "Any games we're making that we're launching in the Scorpio time frame, we're making sure they can 'natively' render at 4K," Microsoft Studios GM Shannon Loftis said. Earlier this month, Xbox engineering lead Mike Ybarra said Project Scorpio will "of course" support backwards compatibility for Xbox 360 games. The console also plays all Xbox One titles. Many people will be buying 4K movie DISKS, streaming sucks, highly compressed, and on PS4 you have no choice but to stream, bad move Sony, bad move.

Watching this in end of 2023 and gonna buy it soon.

Great bro, you are talking about the things nobody else talked. Good review

I think its awesome!

""Hayche De My"???????

HaacheDMI

Got mine for 330 bucks, for that price even though I have a 1080p display it was TOTALLY WORTH IT!

Does it require internet connection on first tym setup

Will it work on non 4k-tv?

Xbox can't play 4k games Ps4 can't play 4k movies both sucks in my opinion!! I'll stick to my older ps4!! 1080p is quite good for me!!

I like to eat rocks

I've got my pro hooked up to my 70" 4k smart tv and I noticed a huge difference especially with Ark survival evolved and Shadow of Mordor

Worth every cent for owners with a 4K tv. Could never go back to a regular PS4

Xbox Noobs are jealous

Xbox one s is better

Today is my birthday 20th april and I got a ps4 pro when I just woke up so I recommend this video

does the frame rates go up . like on Battlefield 1 on a normal ps4 the game struggles sometimes . would the pro sort this out ?? good video btw 😎

I'm getting the ps4 pro because of final fantasy 15 baby!!!

the Samsung one connect box is for the Samsung ks8000 Series and up maybe younger version I'm not sure but it's basically your HDMI ports that are supposed to go to the back of the TV but they just decided to make a box separate that have a special connected to the TV.

This console is worth buying !i compared 1080 to 4k and it was like waw i swear💪🏻

Good review. Torn between this and a Ps4 slim.

Your video looks great and good explanation really great good job and thanks for your video 👊

Pro is the Best

It's possible (maybe even likely) that Sony will have all PS4 games work on both the standard console & the Pro for a limited time; meaning maybe for a couple of years the games will run on both versions, but then all future games will be made to work only on the Pro; if that happens, it's a smart & sneaky strategy.

A little tip for this tv , under special viewing mode select game mode for consoles. Otherwise you are going to find latency from the controller. I learned the hard way and almost returned my tv because I didn't know about it. Now it's more responsive than my other old 1080p tv

I'm waiting for a PS5 Slim and Switch Pro

Could you make a current review related to the same topic? I just bought a PS4 pro and i'm finding out how to take advantage from it... ;)

nice video...clear explanation...I'll stick back to my PS4

4k and hdr is the future

thank you. was wondering why it looked the same lol looks amazing glad i bought a pro

Getting both tomorrow with Horizon zero dawn. Normal just and iPad/iPhone gamer. Looking forward to the 4k HDR experience!

Thank you sooo much man I didn't know how to set up my HDR it was just on 4k and with this video I did

I just bought the ps4 pro. I also got an Xbox one. I love both consoles but still love Xbox more. Especially bc the Xbox controller is better
