Here are details on the changes via PlayStation when they announced the console:

Upgraded GPU: With PS5 Pro, we are upgrading to a GPU that has 67% more Compute Units than the current PS5 console and 28% faster memory. Overall, this enables up to 45% faster rendering for gameplay, making the experience much smoother.
Advanced Ray Tracing: We’ve added even more powerful ray tracing that provides more dynamic reflection and refraction of light. This allows the rays to be cast at double, and at times triple, the speeds of the current PS5 console.
AI-Driven Upscaling: We’re also introducing PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution, an AI-driven upscaling that uses a machine learning-based technology to provide super sharp image clarity by adding an extraordinary amount of detail.

PlayStation 5 Pro will launch on November 7 for $699.99 / £699.99 / €799.99 / ¥119,980.

Now we know why it can reserve like 2gbs more than the base PS5 for video game memory. Because it comes with 2 GB for the OS running in the background... The 45%+ faster rasterization on top of having PSSR too upscale things, and the ~3x ray tracing ability, along with 2TB disc space. Its a nice upgrade over a PS5.

It's definitely a nice upgrade, Sony went big on the GPU to get the most bang for buck.

Just a shame the Ram didn't see a substantial uplift... A.I upscaling and Ray Tracing is stupidly memory hungry and only 2GB extra is going to be a severe bottleneck.
Still, something would have had to give for more Ram... Either a smaller GPU or a higher price, take what we can get in the end.

It's still a good console, it's just not a budget or balanced console. - The Series S is the console for that.

Something like Monster Hunter Wilds is very very demanding on PC. That will be the test... how does it run on Series S vs Playstation 5 Pro. Alot of less demanding games, I bet the Series S comes off looking fine vs the PS5pro, and for those games, Series S will seem like a bargin. However I bet something like Monster Hunter Wilds, will be one with very clear differnces.

Monster Hunter Wilds is just poorly optimized.
Even the Beta on PS5 has a low rendering resolution where they use FSR as a crux, which showcases some extreme levels of breakup in the rendering.

I am thinking they haven't batched the draw calls appropriately, because there is no way it should bottleneck a Ryzen 7800X3D.

This is gonna suck the electricity right out the wall socket. In these trying times, it'll double the electricity bill of the ps5 on top of it's price.
