Sorry, but I don't see a post 9 anywhere

It seems that is a power cable. My PS4 in Asia has similar power plug model.

That power cable is flipping me off
 
There is no additional USB ports on the back [just AUX for the camera].

But they moved USB ports on the front to be really far one from another.

Guess moving one to the edge is a concession to the awkward PSVR setup, but not sure why they wouldn't move both. One at the back would be nice of course.

Haha someone's just actually bought it, it actually did do him a favour. I'm gonna trade my PS4 in tomorrow and grab one off him :)

I would be cautious. Sony may brick all slims activated before the official announce. There's also a very big chance these are stolen goods.

I just hope this doesn't take over as the permanent "non-Neo" model. I don't want them to phase out the original PS4 in the short-term.

Damn they shurnk shit down.

It really doesn't look smaller in any way, maybe not as deep, but definitely as wide, and almost just as high as the original. Only tried comparing to the DS4, but yeah, doesn't look smaller, and if it is, it's not by much I think.

Yeah, can easily see 449 or 499 for Neo. It's meant to be a premium model for higher end users, right?

That would go against Sony's mantra of considering 399$ the ideal launch price for new platforms.
Something that has also been proven by the PSVR 399$ price while the competition was at least 200$ more.
Also the PS4 was a much more advanced and expensive design to manufacture in 2013 compared to what Neo is in 2016 and it still launched at 399$.
They might go greedy but I really don't think they'll ask more than 399$ for Neo, they want to sell them.

Well, now that we have an image, we can do comparisons.

While not a sexy look, it's a very plain black tech look. very easy, symmetrical, intuitive design. While we don't know if it will still make noise, we do know that the PS4 Slim is going for a basic design.

The Xbox one S, while looking a bit more sexy, is going for a stylistic design. this makes sense as the Xbox one needs to boost it sales, so is trying to get the buyers to be attracted toward it with it's white and glossy/matte combo finish.

The PS4 doesn't need that, as it's winning. The PS4 just need s a slick easy visual, streamlined look.

One thing though the PS4 S doesn't seem to have optical out. While the XO has removed the kinect jack, which you need an adapter.

Both take off ports.

My guess is the price of the PS4 Swill be based on the material. if it's a regular material, I expect around a $350 price like the OR PS4. If it's a cheaper plastic, I expect $299.

That's a very good price range to under cut the Xbox one S, although the Xbox one S does have HDR and Blu-ray so it'll be an interesting fight. In NA.

For everywhere else, the streamlined PS$ slim design will likely dominate.

I like it! I think the design is great! Would love to see it next to the OG PS4 so we really could see how much smaller it is.

I get that they're going for the understated PS3 slim style here, but... so boring. Especially next to the amazing redesign Microsoft did with Xbox One S. That one is actually something to display. This... you hide.

Not sure what's so hard to believe, the guy even open the box.
It's a beauty of a console, looks very elegant as well (I like it more than the original).

As I said before, same thing happened when the PS3 slim launched. I also registered mine with Sony so while it may be dodgy, it's probably not illegal.

Certain people just get their hands on stuff early. It is what it is.

Looks like an apple streaming device. Cheaper version of course :p

I think it's definitely real, and I'm amazed how small they've made it. $299? $250? Will sell like crazy anyway.

Not interested in buying it personally, OG PS4 is still very small and it's the best looking console ever.

Neo I'm interested in, IF it's a big upgrade otherwise I'll just stick with standard.
