PlayStation 4 slim model revealed

At the PlayStation Meeting today, Sony has revealed a new PS4 model that will become the standard version going forward.

The new slimmer model promises to reduce volume by 30 percent, weight by 16 percent, and power consumption by 28 percent. It of course retains all the internal hardware features and processing capabilities of the original PS4.

Furthermore, all PS4 systems including PS4 Pro will support HDR imaging technology via software update, which enables the reproduction of brightness and darkness while realizing a much wider range of colors. Users who own an HDR-compatible TV will be able to enjoy supported games and other entertainment content with visuals that are more realistic, strikingly vivid and truer to the way the human eye sees the real world.

The new standard PS4 is starting to ship to retailers now and will be available by September 15 for $299.99 USD / $379.99 CAD.
