I find it interesting "cost-sensitive" only comes up with regards to hardware... I'm assuming you weren't one of the ones on here arguing in favor of 4K blu-ray support even though those movies cost like $30 each...?

Yes. Plenty of people are happy with their current console. The games will be fundamentally the same. Just as high end CE devices live alongside low-end, cheaper options, Neo will live alongside Vanilla PS4.
It's a bit weird to me how some struggle to see consoles as just another CE device and capable of operating the same way.
I didn't have a voice, although it'd make sense to include 4K UHD playback if the cost to include it is negligible. Even if people don't use it because the films cost too much, it's a feature that adds perceived value. Also presents the machine as a cheap UHD player for those not wanting a games console per se.
But those for whom $100 for a new console is too much (those on the edge of benefits, etc), $30 films won't be happening. They'll be looking for a PS4 slim that's cheap and cheerful and let's them play their slightly more affluent friends' game discs for free, and will offer the Playstation Instant Game Collection from their PS+ subscription for very good economy of entertainment.

haha. There's always that projection of knowledge and priorities onto others skewing our decision making with this type of thing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
It's the same slot. Slot curves from side to the back.
IMO, it should be "Vita Neo". Better SoC, MicroSD support, faster WiFi and full set of DS4 controls.
Also for the lulz, they should include HDMI port , bundle with every console a small stand that enables effortless video output on TV, enable DS4 communication, and release all that in a single package BEFORE Nintendo's NX.
oh, okay. well I guess that's the hard drive slot then.
While not directly related to the September 7th Sony event, it seems like the cost of PlayStation Plus is increasing to $60 MSRP for the 12 month plan, $25 MSRP for 3 months, and remain at $10 for 1 month starting on September 22nd.

Probably related. As in they wanted to get that or any negativity out of the way for the reveal.

Presently only a NA change.

Which was likely prompted by the strengthening of the YEN compared to USD. It has fallen from ~120 yen (+/- daily/weekly/monthly variance) per USD down to ~100 yen per USD. IE - it requires more USD to provide a similar amount of revenue in terms of YEN. That will be important for their financial reports as a stronger YEN compared to USD will negatively impact revenue from that region.
Of course, the benefit is that if the YEN weakens versus the dollar at some later date, they won't reverse that change. Hence it'll provide a significant revenue boost with Sony having to do nothing at that point. And since it basically just brings the price for PSN on par with Xbox Gold in that region, there should be little to no backlash to it.

Make fake Indonesia psn. a year is only 25 usd. But it have very little psn discounts.
Best discounts still on PSN us.
Okay then next year I'll move to Indonesia ps plus from us PS plus. At that price, it simply doesn't worth it.
The slim power supply input label is 220-240v @ 0.8A
In comparison the PS4 fat power supply was 100-240 @ 2.5A
Making it somewhere around a 175W power supply specs... If they designed with similar margins for efficiency, the ballpark would be 105W peak versus the fat peaking at 151W (from it's 250W PS).

Rather strange that they don't use a universal PSU. Japan and the US are both 100-110v countries.

From the video that Eurogamer had on their site, I don't think the PS logo had a light. There was a small white led near the disc slot and power/eject buttons, no other lights.
I'd prefer the hard edges of current PS4 over any rounded Apple TV/Time Capsule like design. With a design that borrows the "larger rectangle on top of a smaller rectangle" from the original PS2, the extra 3 cm thickness would not look so thick.
It's hard to tell because the room was lit, and viewing from different angles (from the photos) it really looks like a backlit led.
