A recent video comparison highlights that the Xbox Series X outperforms the PS5 Pro, despite being four years older and costing $200 less. The Xbox Series X can often be found for under $500, unlike the PS5 Pro which retails at around $700. This high price tag has left many gamers surprised, especially since the PS5 Pro hasn’t fully justified its cost. To make matters worse, it was recently announced that Sony will address a significant issue with the PS5 Pro, causing some games to run less optimally on the Pro than on the regular PS5. However, just as things seemed to be improving for the PS5 Pro, a new video has emerged that undermines its performance again.
On social media platform X, a fresh video appears to show an edge that the Xbox Series X enjoys over the PS5 Pro. Given their respective ages and prices, this development doesn’t reflect well on the PS5 Pro.
The video, kindly provided by Vincent Teoh, demonstrates that the supposed PS5 Pro exhibits a lower HDMI 2.1 Bandwidth than the Xbox Series X.
Similar to the PS5, it’s worth noting that the hypothetical PS5 Pro also caps at 32Gbps HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, restricting 4K resolution at 120 frames per second to YUV 4:2:2 format. In contrast, the Xbox Series X, boasting a 40Gbps HDMI 2.1 connection, can deliver 4K at 120 frames per second in full RGB/4:4:4 color depth. This information was gathered using a Philips 2024 OLED TV, which is capable of accurately reporting the HDMI bandwidth of its connected video source.
Essentially, while the average user might not notice much difference, the situation isn’t ideal. The PS5 Pro, marketed as an elite gaming machine capable of surpassing the performance of both the PS5 and Xbox Series X, has been shown in this video to fall short. Unfortunately, there is no software update available that can rectify this issue for either Sony or the owners of the PS5 Pro.
