The PlayStation 4 Pro, set to arrive Nov. 10, is the latest edition of Sony's popular console brand. The revamped system boasts 4K resolution and HDR technology along with revved-up hardware. Since its reveal on Sept. 7, the internet has had a lot of thoughts on the new console and its competitors, like Xbox's Project Scorpio.
The response has been... negative, to say the least. Here's what Twitter is saying:
So aside from being prettier & running... better (?)... if you own a PS4, & have infinite cash, why should you get a PS4 Pro?
Aside from 4K resolution and HDR, the PS4 Pro doesn't have any real groundbreaking features. The absence of a 4K Blu-ray player is notable.
The iPhone 7 Plus has no telephoto OIS The PS4 Pro has no UHD Blu-ray Corner cutters! Sad!
Delay the PS4 Pro and ship it with a 4K Blu-Ray Drive. https://t.co/pgcng6zj4z
Others criticized the shape of the new console.

PS4 Pro? Not PS4 Neo? I liked Neo more. #PlayStationMeeting
Though there is scattered praise here and there...
Not gonna lie... I just saw some PS4 Pro footage of #FFXV.... it *does* look like a completely different game. Graphics wise, very noticable
...most people just don't really get the point.
Not sure about PS4 Pro. You want console power? Get a Scorpio. You want an intro next-gen console? Get a PS4. The PS4 Pro is for...?
