 This is Ross with The Verge. Big day for Sony. The company announced two new consoles. First one we kind of already knew about in a leak, PlayStation 4 Slim. As the name suggests, it's just a slimmer version of the current PlayStation 4. That's actually coming out September 15th, really soon, for $300. That's a hundred lower than it used to be. The big news however, PlayStation 4 Pro. Once was called Codename Neo. Now the PlayStation 4 is not actually a new console, it's just a slightly upgraded version of the current 4. In fact, all the same games will be compatible across both. What you get with the 4 Pro however, is certain future games will be 4K HDR compatible. Actually the original will be HDR compatible soon too, with a firmware upgrade. With the 4 Pro, you get 4K gaming. Certain games will be upgraded. The PlayStation VR will have more graphical power. Other things the PlayStation 4 Pro has, it's a terabyte hard drive and it will have a new Netflix and a new YouTube app really promoting the 4K content push. And again, the kind of the reason to get a 4 Pro at this point, is to just really make the most of a 4K television set. If you don't have a 4K, this is probably not the thing you want to get. But what PlayStation is trying to do, what Sony is trying to do right now, is kind of the iPhone upgrade model. It is better if you have the right TV and if you don't, you're not missing much yet. However, that being said, at $400, it's not a bad way to kind of enter in future proof some of the game you want to do going forward. It kind of solves the chicken and the egg problem. Bigger surprise than that is the PlayStation 4 Pro is coming out this year, November 10th in fact. And again, it's taking the $400 price tier that the original PlayStation 4 had. If you don't need that and you don't feel like you're getting a 4K set anytime soon, get the Slim. It's cheaper.
