10 Things You Didn't Know The PS4 Pro Could Do

The PS4 Pro completely changed the way the PS4 is played. On the surface, fans of the consoles get to enjoy updated graphics and improved visuals, but Sony has packed a number of other features into the console. These features go well beyond the visuals and will help you get the most out of your console.

One of the best features is the ability to play on all types of computers thanks to the PS4 Pro Remote Play option. The computers will automatically feature 1080p graphics and high-quality visuals. Along with computers, owning the PS Vita comes with several advantages. You can connect to the PS4 through remote play and also have the ability to use the PS Vita as a separate controller. You’ll also have storage up to 2 terabytes and have incredibly fast speeds by installing a SSD to your PS4. You don’t have to start all over with the PS4 because you can execute a fast file transfer which will provide you with great speeds to get all of your files. Cut down on the delayed times it takes to start up your PS4 by enabling an HDMI device link. With this link, your TV will automatically turn on and go to the PS4 input. Browsing and downloading games can take up a lot of time. If you’re looking to speed up the process, then you can download the PS4 app and connect it directly to your pro console for downloads. Along with downloads, you can update a number of games in your library to enjoy improved graphics and other features. Other features include VR improvements, 4K video streaming, and the ability to enjoy enhanced Wi-Fi. Without further ado, here are 10 things you didn’t know the PS4 Pro could do. Enjoy!

I knew by the music this would not benefit me at all.

GIVE US BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY WITH INSTALLABLE GAMES SONY!!!

[DMACAVILLION]

I was impressed with the fact u could use your laptop to play it on

More than half of these aren't exclusive to the PS4 Pro at all. Not only are a great deal of them standard PS4 features but I believe a few are even available on the PS3. While interesting, this video comes across like an up-sell from Sony themselves. Maybe Sony "sponsors" this channel...



Side note, the Sony branded BT dongle is only necessary for players who wish to use their headset while playing remotely. Otherwise a standard Bluetooth connection to your PC is the only thing necessary for wireless play with your PS4 controller.

I’m hard wired into my router, but some folks don’t have that option.. but I find 2.4 GHz more reliable. Especially since the 5 GHz I heard has trouble going through thick walls.. or if your in a basement.. and router far away. A good place for a router is a central location in your home.. or… if you can hard wire into the router.. even better.. right now I have my gaming PC, PS4 Pro hardwired into my gaming router.

Pro is still worth getting even without a 4k tv. The game will run better and smoother. I play ffxiv a lot and it's end game content. having more frame rate made huge difference in my gameplay.

As a ps4 pro owner this video is so stupid. Makes pro owners look dumb because most features are on base ps4 system. Reason to buy a pro HDR, better performance, boost mode, improved vr.

Thought this was about things we didn't know the "PRO" could do...? Most of them both PS4's can do.... Dumb video!

[roundone]

remote play works if u have military grade Internet connection ...

Not a dumb video, not all of us have the desire or time to research yet another thing in life. This taught me a bunch. I didn't know my barely used VITA could be used with the PS4 or I could remote play PS4 games on my PC. Very cool stuff. The SSD is not 3x faster though. Something in the PS4 setup holds the SSD back from full potential. Still a nice upgrade if you can get a good deal on a 250gb +. I might snag a 250 if I can find a good brand for around $40-50.

Ive had PS4 for 4 years now, i paid $500 for it. When the Pro came out i couldnt afford it. Just a few days ago my local EB Games had a promo. Trade in your PS4 and get 1tb PS4 Pro and pay $250 price difference. I traded it in yesterday which was the last day of the promo! Man what close luck!

[justintoribio]

Honestly I got rid off all my consoles to buy this ps4 pro and I’m hype hopefully this weekend I could get it

[fullofmoochabeans]

Why are xbox fanboys watching a ps4 pro video?

[ragnarox]

Umm, I can do half of these in my normal ps4

0:18 "before you watch, press subscribe" nah think I'll press that dislike button instead

[szudygergely]

I have PS4 Slim 1TB, but It's good enough for me 👌

I am sitting tight with my PS4 Pro while I wait patiently for a PS5. I have had my Pro for about 2 years. Upgraded from the base PS4 after getting my first 4k TV. I have not put an SSD in it, but it still runs PS4 games like a champ! I am looking forward to a PS5, but having the Pro makes the wait less anxious. I read peeps saying their Pro runs loud, but mine is not. No louder than my base PS4, which wasn't loud either.
