You're right...now did Polygon make an opinion piece asking Microsoft to just announce it already because its laughable that they didn't? Correct me if i'm wrong. Just saying, GAF is just GAF..

Big difference in 1 day and 2 weeks. What would be the point?

Even more believable:

Slim $299 (with a game bundled in some markets), 250$ price used to firesale old PS4s units in stock. 50$ timed price drop for BF and December like last year.
PS4K 399$ at launch, vanilla, 1 or 2 games bundled during the holiday season, still at 399$.

Sorry if this was answered or a potentially dumb question, but does it look like the PS4 slim has HDR and 4K BR output too?

I'll lick a toilet plunger if this isn't true.

$299 would probably mean it will be £249 for the UK. So I dont mind paying the extra £50 to get it 3 weeks early

It does not. Those features will probably come with Neo.

The video sold me on the design. Replacing my OG Launch PS4 with Neo though.

How Sony made the thing is small baffles me.

Yeah. Although I still think they might push it on the Neo price - at the very least I can see a larger storage $449/$499 SKU, even if there is a $399 SKU. There's certainly no way in hell it's going to be less than $399.

Neo will be around $499/£450 I reckon. I think there maybe some surprises in store for us like updated UI more in line of what the 4.0 Beta has given us.

Its a bad test using just your ear. Also, we have no logical comparisons for your thermal pasted PS4.

Personally my PS4 has not made a lick of noise to begin with

Unfortunately judging audio from this kind of setup is impossible without a reference. And sometimes even with one it's hard.

So let's just wait for proper tests.

At least download and install a Decibel Meter App and mesure the distance to the console. Without one the video is useless.

-What firmware does it ship with?

-Does the 4.0 beta work with it?

-How loud is it? Does the idle noise sound less electrical (buzzy) than the blue CUH-1200 model you have?

-The optical audio selection is completely missing from the settings menu?

-Are the Share/Option and D-Pad more tactile and easier to press than the original DS4 controller?

Thanks! (questions were probably answered somewhere else but these are all the ones at the top of my head)

vin-buc · Aug 25, 2016

I'm going to wait and see about the noise but if it's that loud I will be upset. For those of us who have had loud systems - it's unbearable and I was hoping that any new console is nearly whisper quiet.

This was day one until this popped up.

Not much improvement then, if at all. Disappointing if true.

Noise levels (compared to fat PS4) playing demanding games are what I'm most interested in.

Thanks for posting and congrats!

Can you post a pic of the depth comparison? Give W x H x D measurements?

Noise, noise, noise - how loud??? What games are you playing/testing with?

Many thanks!

It's really hard for me to imagine any progress on this front with an even smaller box.

Can only hope that's wrong. 70-80 db is in the range that I set my volume to for watching movies in my home theater...

Yo.

- Not signed in yet, but will find out...

- Ships with 3.51

- Yep, just the 'audio format (priority)' setting is available.

- Pads nigh-on identical, unfortunately...

- Got an original CUH-1000 and a 20th Anniversary model, and is whisper quiet compared to those - not an entirely fair test as the original has a 2TB drive so is a bit squeaky...but it's noticably quiet compared to those.

I like them being split. My Gold headset dongle can sit on the far right alone. When I plug in the usb cable it's not all over it. Looks more clean imo.

Dissapointed to see this at 500GB, hopefully the default hardrive for the Neo is 1TB.

I'd really like to see a nice SATA 3 port and an SSD involved in the mix, too. But, hey- it's nice to want things, right?

I think we can pretty much count on there being a 500GB base model and a 1TB model at a stupidly high markup.

Most people don't have any idea how to measure noise levels, even with a decent sound pressure level meter, and chances are it was some random app on a phone which is even less accurate. Wait for someone who knows what they're doing to do an A/B comparison with a launch console before drawing any conclusions.

Yep. I would not believe any kind of sound comparisons until this is people's hands who know how to do this stuff. Anything before then is purely anecdotal at best.
