PS4 Slims rumors confirmed real (video)
Yesterday, rumors started surfacing on Neogaf about an upcoming new PS4 model, the PS4 slim, after the device was spotted on an auction site. Gaming website Eurogamer has now confirmed the device is real, showing a video of the device booting (video below).
It would make perfect sense for Sony to announce the PS4 Slim along with the PS4 Neo. Doing that, Sony should be able to appeal to hardcore gamers as well as more “casual” gamers looking for the PS4 experience at a more reasonable price.
It is likely that both devices will be officially announced in a few weeks.
Initial pictures of the device raised suspicions that it could be a clever photoshop or just some 3D-printed piece of plastic (honestly, the somewhat cheap-plastic-look of the console doesn’t help here), but journalists at Eurogamer have been able to meet in person with the person who originated the leaks, confirming that person is in possession of a PS4 slim, and showing the device booting to the main PS4 menu.

There’s lots of speculation about the PS4 Slim, including its specs. The Device, apparently with code CUH-2016A, will ship with a 500GB hard drive, according to the leaked pictures. It is likely this will be a “low end” version of the PS4, basically with the same specs as the original one, but with a smaller design.
I predicted 2 years ago that the PS4 slim would be released either in October 2015 or September 2016, seems like I was right on one of my 2 dates 🙂
First!
Your point?
Damn I also want to be first, be proud of yourself great job!
He’s first, are you *** jealous? I would be
fist!
I can see some great looking custom stickers/decals coming up for that console, and possibly the limited edition with cool looking artwork print and design.
That it realy slim. But the standart one is way more beautiful. The Sony Original consoles look allway better than their slim models imo.
I like big consoles and i cannot lie
“I like big consoles and i cannot lie”
…LOL.
good one :). tough i dissagree on the ps2 and 3.
And many people called it ugly to be true so fake ! 😀
BELIVE IT PEOPLE 😀 ITS heck UGLY AND REALLLLLLLLL 😀
lets hope they dont go like this design with NEO
I hate the parallelogram design of the original PS4. Several of my USB devices don’t fit because of it unless I use a USB extension cable. I do LOVE matte finishes as they don’t show fingerprints. I also hate the touch sensitive *** of the launch models. My cats are constantly turning my system on an ejecting discs when they brush against it. Also you can’t put anything on top of the launch models due to video issues if you do. I love the PS4 but the original design was not so good.
I prefer smaller consoles as they don’t take up much space in my entertainment center.
I like the design of the slim PS4 but I’ll won’t pass judgement until I see if the issue with my USB devices not fitting is fixed.
I find it highly suspicious that a device like this would have a box made for the Middle East (Arabic for “Best Selling” thing).
I would take this with a hefty amount of salt.
Look like a big router , also look like electric scale(top part can put item, bottom is base)
So, this is a totally cosmetic upgrade, right? No gaming advantage to upgrading. Money would be better spent on upgrading Hard Disk to SSD ?
I’m still buying the original one
Waiting for Neo leak as well.
video removed 🙁
whAT happend to the video of it booting ??
so ugly….
None of your prediction were right. Stupid article.
So freaking ugly
off topic but the PSone is still my favorite console.
