Possibly Sony's best Playstation design ever - better than even the PS2 slim
Woah woah woah, let's not get carried away here

Confirmed dual-band Wi-Fi AC. In the network status page there's "band in use" setting

I really like it, but I'm a fan of more simplistic designs. Would love to see one in the blue color from the Gran Turismo PS3 last gen.

And this:
Although could be just wireless N?

Well holy shit
However, 5ghz doesn't automatically mean AC. It could just as easily be an N adapter, which uses 2.4 or 5. We'll probably need an actual teardown to actually tell if it's AC, that or a screenshot from a routers connected devices page.

What? no way lol
Why want a slim when you can get a neo? Unless that is not out this year...
Fancy wifi and less noise dont tickle my fancy. The lack of a 4k drive like microsoft offer in the s seams a little puzzling seeing as sony are pushing hard with their 4k tvs right now.
Only thing I could see being a selling point if they announce it with a price reducution along with some nice bundles for Christmas

Haven't thought of colleges, you're right.
But anyone else can deal with a little wire along (and not inside) the walls. Cables these days are almost invisible. And it's something you do once and forget about it, it just works.
It's better than dealing with wi-fi anyway. I'm off-topic though, so I'll leave it at that.
Objectively incorrect. The PS2 slim is the GOAT console, and I'd put the OG PS4 over the Slim.
Pretty sure this was said about the PS4 which also looks great in pictures which looks (and is) so cheaply made when you hold it in your hands

Not everyone's an FPS counter? I couldn't care less about slight graphical improvements that never made much difference to me (I regurarly play old games too). However, in my setup, my consoles are very close to me, so jet engine noise is a frustration, especially for lowkey games like Bloodborne. If both revisions have the same noise level, I might as well go with the cheaper version. What would attract me on Neo would be things like significantly bigger harddrives or backwards compatibility. If slightly higher resolutions would be the only advantage on Neo however, Slim is going to be more interesting.
Ehhhh I disagree
Even the PS4 looks better than this. Comparing to the PS2 slim? Even the PS3 Super Slim? Not even close IMO
Still not an UGLY console by any means
it doesnt
PS2 slim was a sexy ass design, this really isn't. But it does look good, and it looks like Sony slimmed it as much as physically possible.

Get the neo
I love how every image of how amazing it looks is showing it at angles or vertical - rather than the horizontal flat ugly angle its actually made for

Thanks. Disappointing, I thought sony would try to push 4k blu-ray sales.

GT Sport? Maybe in Europe but they never bundle GT in America. GT3 was and GT5 was like when it was already old(did it when the corvette C7 was unveiled) and never LE, just standard.
Only if they like negative reviews and bad word of mouth for what will be the largest part of their market for many years to come. If anything, it's the Neo and Scorpio versions that I expect to get relatively lazy treatment in many cases.
The good thing about Scorpio's approach is that it has over 4X the power of the Xbox One so they should be able to hit 4K for ever 1080P Xbox One game & 1800P for the 900P games if not 4K. Devs should have a easy job for Xbox One/Xbox Scorpio games.

the blops bundle is 10% off for prime members, it begins brehs
Um
No, that is absolutely not the case. 4K will be rare on Scorpio and even rarer on Neo. We're barely at a point where the highest end graphics card still struggles with 4K.
^ If your talking about 4K ultra at 60 sure, but we've been able to do 4K30 for a while now, granted at PS3/360 level fidelity.
So its confirmed that Slim does both 2.4GHZ and 5GHZ? isn't that N? That's probably the best outcome we could possibly have, choosing between the best connection for your environment. Way better than just 5GHZ alone!

Nothing supports 5GHz alone.

It's not going to do 4K, it's going to do 4K*

So who's going to make the PS4 Sexy OT?
Then why are some annoyed at 5GHZ being confirmed? I mean if you can switch however you want. This is a feature people have been asking for for a while

Definitely. But not better than PSone.

For the most part, I like it, but I like being able to replace the glossy face plate on the launch model. I have the LittleBigPlanet one on mine!
If its only 14nm APU heat requirements, i don't see how that could be. If they had put the 28nm APU into this case, that would be one thing, but this is a new process node entirely.
Scorpio is 4.5X the power of Xbox One they will be able to run the 1080P Xbox One games in 4K.
Running and running are not the same.

Well, at least it's not below $299!
