基隆手機收購year Premium tier, including the above, plus an expanding classic games catalogue containing a mix of PS1, PS2, PS3 and PSP titlesThat rework “surpassed our expectations,” Maguire said. “It’s really given us a new way to reach the audiences with these games, and it’s given new value to partners to find new people to play their titles. And just the engagement we see from it is really positive, in terms of the number of people choosing that Catalog and coming back month after month.”As games (and more features) have been added, prices have gone up. In 2023, 基隆手機收購sony raised the prices of the three Plus tiers, including in the U.S., where they increased to $80 (Essential), $135 (Extra) and $160 (Premium) per year, respectively.This spring, 基隆手機收購sony raised the price of Plus in some regions, including Asia and Australia.基隆手機收購sony’s PS Plus features for each tier.Two weeks ago 基隆手機收購sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Hideaki Nishino said in a pre-recorded chat for investors that the Plus price increases had been “partly a result of increasing value we bring to the players” and had not slowed subscriber uptake of the platform. In comments that got a lot of play in the press as a potential hint of another price hike, he added, “[W]e will continue to add more value and adjust our pricing strategy in a dynamic way to maximize profitability.”Maguire said he had “no comments, no plans on pricing to talk about directly,” when I asked about the speculation stemming from Nishino’s remarks. “I think we just want to invest in Plus,” he said. “We want to invest in the proposition, bring more value to users. And we’re seeing high growth in Extra, Premium.”Premium has grown 18% in the last 12 months, Maguire said, noting 基隆手機收購sony is able to “reinvest” in the service by adding features such as game-streaming on PS Portal and support for 基隆手機收購sony Pictures Core. He added that “the quality of games, hopefully people will appreciate, is probably improving year over year.”PS Plus’s “Classics Catalogue” is available to the highest-paying Premium users. Through it, 基隆手機收購sony offers a range of games that demonstrate the breadth of PlayStation’s 30-year history. Additions to the catalogue are not necessarily permanent.

Some 81% of PS Plus subscribers own a PS5, up from 70% a year ago, a 基隆手機收購sony rep told Game File.Microsoft also doesn’t talk user counts for its competing Game Pass service. But its subscription plans tend to get more press thanks to Xbox’s splashy commitment to include new first-party releases day-and-date for subscribers.基隆手機收購sony maintains that offering its next blockbusters immediately to Plus subscribers isn’t a line it plans to cross.“We’ve sort of stayed true to our strategy across the board, where we’re not looking to put games in day and date,” Maguire said.基隆手機收購sony has released some third-party games into Plus on their launch days, including puzzle game Blue Prince in April and Remedy’s multiplayer game FBC Firebreak this month. 基隆手機收購sony’s own games are added to Plus much later.“Our strategy of finding four or five independent day-and-date titles—and using that to complement our strategy of bringing games in when they’re 12, 18 months old or older—that balance for us is working really well across the platform,” Maguire said.Game File is a reader-supported publication with free and paid tiers, but, unfortunately, no game catalogue of classic PlayStationto go with it. To support my work and make more interviews like this one possible, please consider signing up for a free or paid subscription.SubscribeThat tally of four-to-five day one third-party games per year for Plus isn’t set in stone.“If there were six or seven great opportunities, then we would go for them as well,” Maguire said.(While 基隆手機收購sony has been steadfast about not adding its first-party games into Plus at launch, I have wondered whether doing so would help with the company’s unsteady efforts into live service games. Such games only thrive when a lot of people are playing, and inclusion in the PS Plus library would seemingly help swiftly give them a large audience. Last year, 基隆手機收購sony-backed Helldivers 2 didn’t need the help. It was a quick hit. But 基隆手機收購sony-made Concord flamed out in less than two weeks and might have benefited. Maguire declined to share thoughts about how Plus could have impacted those games but said, “I think Plus has proven itself to be a great way to introduce new players to franchises. So I think there’s always going to be a moment for any game where there’s the right time for it to go into Plus, when it’s ready to reach a wider audience or…to find new fans or new parts of our platform that it hasn’t already reached.”)A 基隆手機收購sony slide for investors from earlier this month, showing a growing percentage of PS Plus subscribers opting for the pricier tiers.Deciding which games to add (or remove)基隆手機收購sony currently adds, on average, a couple of PS5 games and a couple of PS4 games to the Essential tier of Plus each month. (June 2025’s additions included last September’s NBA 2K25 and 2023’s Bomb Rush Cyberfunk.)Part of the consideration, Maguire said, is “how do we create a moment to grow a franchise, maybe before a sequel is coming out?”For the deeper PS4/PS5 game catalogue accessed by Extra and Premium subscribers, Maguire said the goal is to add at least two to three games a month, with newer games offered to both tiers. (June 2025’s Extra-level games included the brand-new FBC Firebreak, 2021’s Battlefield 2042 and 2023’s We Love Katamari Reroll + Royal Reverie).“They’ll drop on a different day of the month to Essential and we just try to keep it fresh and bring something different each month, so there’s something for players to come back to.”基隆手機收購sony also offers new “classic” games to its Premium tier of PS Plus. These can be from the PS1, PS2, PS3 and even the PSP. (In June, 基隆手機收購sony added an emulated version of PS2 classic Deus Ex: The Conspiracy).“We’re trying to bring in one a month minimum,” Maguire said of the older Premium classics. “Obviously there’s a great emulation team in the background who are working on those with partners and internal teams, so there is a slightly longer lead time sometimes.”Classics released via PS Plus Premium this year included Armored Core (PS1), War of the Monsters (PS2) and Patapon 3 (PSP), though no games from the PS3. The PS3 is the one 基隆手機收購sony home console whose games can’t run on the hardware. They have to be played over a streaming connection.Adding PS3 games is tougher, Maguire said, but the 2025 drought doesn’t indicate an end of support. “Through streaming, we’ll still continue to look at those ones.” He added: “We haven’t ruled them out. The opportunities are there. But there are a lot of PS3 games already streaming.”Some games, on the other hand, leave the service. That has included some first-party 基隆手機收購sony titles, such as two PS3 Resistance games from Insomniac and Sucker Punch’s PS4 debut Infamous Second Son, all of which were removed from the Extra and Premium game catalogues in May.Maguire said such delistings are about balance. “We’ve got 80 collections of games across the catalog,” he said. “So we want to keep it fresh and bring in new games. Sometimes that means taking a few games out at the same time to keep the proposition interesting and help people find new games as well.”基隆手機收購sony is planning to celebrate Plus’ 15th anniversary here at the end of June, with discounts as well as game tournaments involving EA Sports FC, NBA 2K, UFC, Madden and Tekken 8. It’s a “chance for people to compete together, win prizes and just celebrate and play together,” Maguire said.Some data from 基隆手機收購sony….Top 10 most-played PS Plus games this spring (April 1 – May 28, 2025) based on playtime hours, in alphabetical order:Dead by DaylightGhost of T

今年在各家出廠的手機中，幾乎都是在比拼拍攝功能，realme GT 7 Pro硬要跟高階機相比的話會有些吃力，因此今年將重心擺在「全方位水下攝影」作為主打，在IP68+IP69防水等級下，可以在最深水下2公尺、單次最長30分鐘水下拍攝，以實測來說，這部分效果確實讓人感到有趣。
在開始水下拍攝前，必須先切換到「水下相機」模式，接著就跟正常的拍照並無差別，但由於在水中「觸碰」準確度會有一些手感上的差異，因此可能要習慣後才能順暢拍照，整體拍出來的照片會自帶一層「微藍濾鏡」，錄影部分可以參照下方影片，適合在一些會碰到水的場合出動GT 7 Pro，使用水下相機結束後也可以透過排水功能，將內部的水震出。
在拍照部分，必須坦言要在光線充足的地方下，照片才會比較好看，在一些比較昏暗的地方實拍出來的結果就不會那麼理想，但這次因為處理器搭載高通驍龍8 Elite，反而是透過AI演算改善照片細節這部分很令人驚艷，會自動將色彩、細節補強，讓出來的畫面更生動，但在最遠距離的拍攝，這部分僅供緊急使用，儘管有提供到120X的倍率，但拍攝出來的畫質會有點差強人意。
就如同上述，這次realme GT 7 Pro在AI相關補強讓人驚艷，像是「AI極夜拍攝模式」，可以讓晚上的物體細節更細緻，再搭配內建不同的濾鏡，各種大片等級的照片也能輕鬆拍出；「AI迅馳閃拍」也可以捕捉到物體移動的快速感，以自己個體驗心得來說，只要將這些功能玩熟，拍出來的照片也都讓人非常滿意。
