Using the 5ghz WiFI because my router happens to be in the same room and I'm downloading right now at 12-15 MB/s. So seems to be working really well.
If it's a non-HDR 4K with HDMI 2.0, that should be correct. Those only support 4k/60 with 4:2:0.
That is the same thing I have my Nvidia Shield set to on my Sony Xbr55x850b.

So GAF. I bought a Samsung M9T 2 TB HDD for my old PS4
Excluding size, is this HDD somehow worse/slower than the stock 1TB drive in the Pro?
Should I stick this 2TB in the Pro?

Online target said that there was no inventory in stores until 11/17. I walked into my local target a half hour after it opened and they were just receiving them in the back. Walked out with one 10 minutes later fwiw.

By the way, the upscaler is great on this thing! 1080p games look better than they did on my TV's upscaler.
Also, the firmer buttons and sturdier analog sticks on the Dual Shock v2 are a big improvement.

I have Sony KDL-43W805C TV and Dell Ultrasharp 1440p U2515H Monitor and Pro games looks stunning on both devices.
I am a little bit disappointed since 1440p is not an native output option but:
IQ is INSANE.
I'm playing TF2 and MWR since day one and especially TF2 blew my mind it looks superbly clean now and i wish i can get TF2's 1440p res on my monitor as native output.
2 captures from 3840*2160 to 1080p.

Your router has to support it and you have to activate 5ghz broadcast in your router settings. You don't have to do anything with your PS4. Just log into your 5ghz network. Mine has a different SSID so check that as well.
Here's my unboxing!
I've swapped the hard drive with a 2TB unit.
I've tried three games: Tomb Raider, Uncharted 4 and R&C.
All of them have noticeable resoution increases and the HDR in such high res looks amazing.
But so far I've really liked R&C, it looks and it is smooth like a CG movie, amazing.
Tonight I'll try Dishonored 2 and other games.

I went to Target to pick up Titanfall 2 on sale, and noticed a grandmother picking up a PS4 Pro. I totally forgot about it's release, and really didn't care much.
So much for that. I went home and ordered it from target with another 10% wish list coupon + 5% Red Card discount. It ended up being $366 out the door. I don't have a 4K TV yet, but w/e.
Edit: I think I'm going to pick up a 2TB Firecuda for this as well.

Tomb raider's image quality, even on a 1080p display, really is something to behold.
Shame the DOF isn't too great in cutscenes and makes things look lower res than they are.

Yeah shame the enhanced/enriched mode isn't that clean. I'll go for the downsampled mode.
So I was just having some issues with transferring data from my old PS4 to my Pro, but I fixed it. I don't know if anyone else will have these issues, but here is the problem and solution.
Other PS4 not found:
If you put your original PS4 in the DMZ on your router, there's a chance that it's showing a WAN IP as it's IP when you go to network settings. Your PS4 Pro will show a LAN IP, and it won't be able to find your old PS4 on the network. I solved the issue by disabling the DMZ.

I'm trying to transfer stuff over but whenever it tells me to hold down the button on the other ps4 my system shuts down and it says I don't have a Lan connected. Anybody else have this problem?

Can you not return it?
I don't supposed taking the 2tb from my PS4 and putting it in the pro will just work and keep all the games I already have installed etc. Anyone tried this?
Nah, you need to format it.

Yeah, just did a bit more digging via Sucker Punches twitter page and found the following:
https://www.suckerpunch.com/hdr-and-4k/
My Pro is just plugged directly into the 1080p TV with a normal HDMI cable (not the supplied cable, its a bit too short) so hopefully they can patch or address the issue. Its not a huge deal, only if your in a pitch black area, well lit areas look amazing, its just back alleys and the like that seem a bit too dark for me.

welp the pro makes the world of final fantasy look worse, haha. hopefully the supposed update will be out soon.
Yeah their dynamic HDR is awful, it was always present. So they probably won't fix it ever.
Play Ratchet and Clank to have your jaw drop !
Man... What an irritating set of circumstances my setup gave me.
Getting through the transfer from my old PS4 to my new one was easy enough, despite the router dropping connection the first time so I couldn't connect to Sony's server to do whatever handshaking needs to be done before the transfer actually starts.
After that though... absolute hell. First I connected the Pro through my soundbase to my television, only to discover in the video output settings that although my soundbase can handle passing through a 4K signal, it can't do anything related to HDR and only supports HDCP 1.4.
Wanting to get all the features my TV supports, I figure I'll just connect the pro directly to my TV and see how it is without the nice audio my soundbase provides.
No dice. For some reason, I get sound but no picture when I directly connect my pro to my TV. I connect it back up to the soundbase so I can see what I'm doing and try switching off every bell and whistle when it comes to video and sound and manually set the resolution to 1080p to maximise the chances of eliminating whatever is causing me to not get any video. Still nothing.
At this point, I'm sweating thinking that I've dumped my money into something that isn't going to work properly or at the very best, work in a hindered state. After unplugging and re-plugging far too many cables in a cramped space while messing with individual settings, in a last ditch attempt, I tried disabling HDCP... and it worked.
Even stranger still, connecting my PS4P through my soundbase with HDCP enabled, then unplugging it and connecting it directly to my TV gets a picture and the video output settings readout states that my TV can do HDR, 4K, and has HDCP 2.2, but if I reboot the PS4P with HDCP still on, I get the same black screen with audio issue I had at the start.
For now I've got a weird jury-rigged setup where I'm running the PS4 pro directly connected to the TV with HDCP disabled and using an optical cable to the soundbase for audio. I've tried searching for a more manageable solution, but it seems people have been having similar black screen on boot issues with HDCP and the PS4 for years.

That's good to hear. I hadn't heard anyone comment on the controller yet.
You don't have to hold the button very long. You press it for maybe a half second until it beeps once.

OMG amazing, MwR had some aliasing issues and intensive bloom for me, looks much better now.
Can you do one for Black Opa 3? How is it?

Is Black Ops 3 already patched for PS4Pro?
Damn. Guess the question is just transfer from existing PS4 and live with 1tb or put the new drive in right away and redownload everything. Decisions decisions...
Some small details on The Last Guardian

So I see a link in the OP for transferring your data from one PS4 to another. But what about any other settings? If I am wiping my hardware and installing a fresh firmware before I sell it, do I still need to go into any account management to disassociate my PS4 from my account?
I guess i will have to. But it would be quicker for them to just mail me a screw.

Picking up my Pro from UPS today...ready to get home from work and boot up Titanfall 2...I've been without my OG PS4 for weeks
There is no 8-bit HDR. 8-bit is just normal video output.
