Although the visual spectacle is undoubtedly amazing, the features that have been the most beneficial so far since upgrading to the Pro can be found in the finer details of the console. Finally upgrading from the already-small-in-2013 500GB hard drive to a faster 1TB model in particular has alleviated so many system storage headaches, increasing the console's ease of use massively.

But it's perhaps the improved WiFi that's been the real lifesaver, as it makes downloading full games in an increasingly digital marketplace easier than ever.

Again, these aren't features that should have you running straight out to pick up Sony's machine (especially now that increasing hard drive space is so accessible thanks to external support), but they're surprisingly important to the Pro's overall appeal.
