The editors liked

  • Smaller device than original PS4 that's easy to hide out of the way
  • New DualShock 4 controller with USB communication
  • Easier to swap out hard drive than before
  • Capable of HDR gaming
  • No one likes to waste power and deal with insane energy bills
  • So it's reassuring to see Sony dialling back the PS4's power consumption. Though the original PS4's looks have become comfortingly familiar
  • The new smaller
  • More reserved design will make it
  • Great gaming platform
  • Good value for money
  • Controller could be best ever
  • Faster Wi-Fi can make a big difference
  • Smaller chassis with fun design
  • Same great PS4 game library
  • More affordable than ever
  • The newer PS4 has a smaller footprint
  • Slick design
  • Quieter operation and keeps intact all of the PS4 awesomeness it's offered since 2013. The slightly updated DualShock4 controller is a bonus.
  • Always significantly quieter than the original and often silent
  • Usefully smaller and arguably better looking
  • Tiny
  • Handy tweaks to the controller

The editors didn't like

  • Not the prettiest machine on the market
  • No optical digital audio output
  • A mere 500GB HDD
  • No 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player
  • Pro's added power makes it the more obvious choice
  • When sat next to the Xbox One S
  • Which isn't massively more expensive than the 2016 PlayStation Slim
  • It's hard not to feel a little jealous of Microsoft's machine's 4K Blu-ray player. It's a luxury
  • For sure
  • But it's a future proofed one that may mean t
  • Optical audio port removed
  • Still not sure on aesthetics
  • No more optical port
  • More powerful PS4 console also available
  • The slim PS4 loses its optical audio port
  • Which will be a bummer for thirdparty headphone users. The somewhat pricier PS4 Pro delivers a larger hard drive and the promise of better graphics
  • No optical output or 4K Blu-ray drive
  • More powerful PS4 console coming soon

  • The slim PS4 loses its optical audio port, which will be a bummer for third-party headphone users. The somewhat pricier PS4 Pro delivers a larger hard drive and the promise of better graphics
  • The PS4 Slim is a deja vu game console: great for gamers on a budget, not quite as good as the PS4 Pro and skippable for any existing PlayStation 4 owner...

  • Great games, Good value, Improved power efficiency, PS Plus still a great deal, DualShock 4 better than ever
  • Optical audio removed, No 4K Bluray player
  • An excellent console with a great catalogue of AAA games, the slimmer, smaller PS4 is better in almost every way compared to the original, barring one notable exception...

  • Overall, the new PlayStation 4 gets the job done but doesn't offer any significant improvements over its predecessor. It's not much smaller or well ventilated, and its lack of an optical audio-out port more or less forces new PlayStation 4 buyers who want...

  • Always significantly quieter than the original and often silent, Usefully smaller and arguably better looking, Tiny, handy tweaks to the controller
  • No optical output or 4K Blu-ray drive
  • All told, the PS4 Slim improves on its predecessor in almost every way. It's much smaller, lighter, quieter and cheaper. Some people will miss the optical connection, but otherwise this is a job well jobbed.But should you buy one? If you already own a PS4...

  • Abstract:  La PlayStation 4 Pro est un OVNI, et surtout la première représentante d'une nouvelle ère pour les consoles de jeu vidéo. Deux fois plus puissante que la PS4 originale, elle arrive seulement trois ans après et Sony insiste sur le fait qu'elle fait partie...

  • Fini le bruit de turbine d'avion au décollage lorsque la console est fortement sollicitée, Consommation réduite, Boutons physiques plus simples à utiliser que les tactiles
  • Pas de lecteur Blu-ray UHD, Plus de sortie audio optique, Apparence moins luxueuse, Consommation toujours élevée en lecture Blu-ray, Fonctions multimédias toujours limitées
  • Évolution logique de la PS4, la PS4 Slim atténue sensiblement le principal défaut de la première version, à savoir le bruit de fonctionnement. Elle se montre également encore plus discrète dans un meuble TV et sait rester sobre sur le plan de la consommat...
