2 Reasons to Wait for the PS5 & 4 Reasons To Buy a PS4 Pro
Don't Wait if You Can't Spend a Lot | |||||||

The PS5 is $499 and the PS5 All Digital is $399. These aren't cheap consoles and you won't find any deals on the PS5 in 2020 or early 2021. Microsoft comes in a little cheaper at $299 for the digital Xbox Series S, but it isn't as powerful as the PS5 All Digital Edition or the Xbox Series X. If you can't spend at least $400 and then a little more on games and any accessories that you decide you need, you should hold off on the PS5 and look for a PS4 deal. Expect to see a price drop a year later, but at that point, you're waiting over a year for an upgrade if you aren't willing to spend a lot of money upfront. | |||||||

Any PS Vita owner would instantly agree that Sony has abandoned the handheld console years ago with no first-party releases. At the most, players get some great indie titles, Japanese games but Uncharted, God of War which got released along with the Vita are the only ones that are still available with no big announcements in sight. Despite all the negative criticism and backlash, Sony ignored them and focused on PS4 which seems to be their only strong product in the consumer market.
The number of AAA exclusives Sony has is the biggest saving grace for the PlayStation 4 console and its lifetime is slowly coming to a close. The PS4 Pro and PS VR are already out to fill the gap before the big PlayStation 5 console is announced, possibly in 2020. The company seems to be slowly phasing out the PlayStation 3 console and the handheld PS Vita so that they could better focus on the newer platforms.
