A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

As I described above, I decided to make perfect from perfect by adding filters to the excellent cooling system so that less dust gets inside the console, and even more so larger particles and all sorts of insects do not get into it. For this, fine-grained foam rubber is quite suitable, which must be cut into strips that match the width of the ventilation holes and tightly install these strips into the holes around the entire perimeter (the system takes air for cooling from three sides, and blows it out from behind). Filters will need to be changed as they get dirty.
For the safe operation of the system (in order not to lose data and prevent damage to the system), I recommend purchasing an uninterruptible power supply! For this model, taking into account uninterrupted operation with a TV and, for example (in my case), with a steering wheel, you can meet 3000-5000.
Also from the package I was pleased with a rather long HDMI cable and a mini-headset.
Should a PS4 Pro be taken by those who decide to switch consoles (from PS3 or early PS4) in anticipation of the release of PS5? For myself, I decided that it is worth and not a bit sorry about buying! The CUH-7208B is a polished product that lives up to its time and outperforms the competition in many ways (for me, for example, it's the ability to race in Gran Turismo, which is only available on the PlayStation). Especially since the PS4 (as announced) will be supported by SONY for several more years after the release of the PS5. And also the plus of this console is the image in 4K quality. And personally, I will think about buying the next generation of the console only after a test drive by gamers and the release of several models of consoles with improvements, ates and cured possible sores.

Pros

There are many advantages and they are all listed more than once, so I see no reason to repeat myself. They can be found in any product description in any store. PlayStation, as always, on top! On my own behalf, I can add that I was impressed by the low noise level and thoughtfulness of the cooling system, which, however, as an avid tuner, I decided to finalize (I will describe this below in the comments). Also, the video picture on SONY 4K TVs seems flawless! And in general, the graphics engine of the console cannot but rejoice, and in some ways even delight! The talking joystick is also a cool thing!

Cons

The only downside for me as a racer is the incompatibility with the Logitech G27 wheel (and other "old" wheels), which is very annoying. Indeed, at the moment we have to look for a solution to this problem using third-party devices. And I don't know how they will behave (what will be the total signal delay). Yes, and some ready-made solutions (such as DRIVE HUB) cost around 8000-9000, which is almost equivalent to an additional payment when selling an old steering wheel and buying a new one. But! My G27 suits me perfectly and I categorically do not want to change it to G29! I would like to call this decision by SONY and Logitech a corporate marketing conspiracy against users. This is extremely inconvenient, even unfair to users, which is why I gave 4 stars for ease of use (although I would like to put 1 on emotions, but objectively the console is very convenient to use).
