    If you think $700 is bad, it’s £700 in the UK… which is $913. 🤢

    Also:

    • median household income, UK (2022): £32,400 ($42,265)

    • median household income, USA (2022): $74,580

    A PS5 Pro is 26% of the typical UK household monthly income.

    A PS5 Pro is 11% of the typical US household monthly income.

    The US pricing is bad. The UK pricing is absolutely insane.

    The OLED Deck starts at £479. Still a lot but not as egregious. The LCD Deck is currently £262 ($344), which is pretty great.
