Gaming News PS5 Pro: the performance of the Sony console in the portable version still looks serious!
With the release of the PlayStation Pro, gamers can now conduct all sorts of technical experiments. One of them was inevitable: use the PlayStation Portal via the PS5 Pro and see the possible graphical differences…
PS Portal is the focus
The PlayStation Pro has finally been on the market since November 7th. This is the most expensive console Sony has ever offered, but also the most powerful: 799.99 dollars for a more efficient graphics card and processor as well PSSR technology that finally allows you to play in 4K AND at 60 frames per second, whereas on the standard PS5 you had to choose between resolution and fluidity. And in some cases we’re even talking about 8K, like Gran Turismo 7 or No Man’s Sky.
In short, we direct you to our test of the machine to find out what exactly it is, but players also try to spot all the differences that this new hardware brings. For example, Are there any differences when using PS Portal? It seems so, according to this player who shares his experience on X.
The PS5 Pro also de facto improves the PS portal. The image is sharper and frame rates are more stable. Even the latency seems better, but that could just be a placebo effect.

An opinion that other Internet users also share in the comments.
A placebo effect?
As a reminder, the PS Portal is not a console, but an accessory whose only function is to remotely play the PS5. So it retrieves the images and data sent from the console via an internet connection and allows you to play remotely as long as you have a good connection. Let’s clarify that too The maximum screen resolution is 1920 x 1080 pixels with a frame rate of up to 60 FPS.
In fact, forget about the 4K allowed by the PS5 Pro as the resolution is limited to the PS5 portal. On the other hand, Games that can run at 60 frames per second thanks to the console’s performance will also be displayed at 60 frames per second in the PS Portalwhich represents a significant technical improvement. Also, You can benefit from improved graphics, such as improved ray tracingone of the other advantages of the Sony device.
Maybe it’s because the Pro supports WiFi 7

However, as far as the improved latency mentioned by the player is concerned, nothing is less certain and, moreover, he himself wonders about a possible placebo effect. In the comments, Internet users argue that the PS5 Pro has more memory and Wi-Fi 7, which could improve streaming data transfer and thus improve the experience on the PS portal. However, it would make more sense to wait for real technical tests from specialist media to form an opinion.
