“The launch of PS4 Pro is an immensely exciting moment for PlayStation”.

Its memory feature is at 8GB GDDR5 at 218GB/s, which means 24% more bandwidth, 512MB more useable memory. The 2.0 update also support PS4 Pro high res content for creating and sharing 1080p videos and 4K screenshots from the capture gallery. Thus far only framerate improvements and HDR support have been confirmed.
