PS5 Pro vs Xbox Series X: Which Console Is More Powerful in 2026?

The PS5 Pro is significantly more powerful than the Xbox Series X on paper — 33.5 TFLOPS (GPU) vs 12 TFLOPS — thanks to its PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) upscaling and enhanced GPU. However, in real-world gaming both consoles deliver excellent 4K performance, and the Xbox Series X remains the better value at $499 vs the PS5 Pro's $699. If raw GPU power and PlayStation exclusives (Spider-Man, God of War, Gran Turismo) matter most, the PS5 Pro wins. If value and Game Pass (thousands of games included) is your priority, Xbox Series X wins.
