Too small, too soon. This is more like a second revision, and given Sony's track record with slim models I could actually see something this size coming by the end of the generation. But not this year!

I will trade my PS4 in for a white version of this if its real. Without hesitation
$299 slim PS4 Holiday 2015 with No Mans Sky and Uncharted for the main holiday blockbusters?

Hmmm
More like $350 and I doubt No Mans Sky gets a retail relase let alone a bundle.
Thank you for this.

This. I think the first revision will be just a little bit smaller, offer a 1TB HDD and maybe have an updated DS4. Price tag maybe 349. Sony has no need for a very low price, thing is selling great at 400. Second "super slim" revision will be very small because of a shrink.

Too Soon. The "fat" is still selling like hot cakes.

Those links don't work.
That doesn't matter if they can make it cheaper.
True but shouldn't Sony be looking at increasing/maintaining the PS4's great momentum instead of waiting for it to decrease?
A slim should do that, in addition to bringing costs down as mentioned above.

Doubt it. Slim didn't release until 3 years after the original.
Yeah considering that it's already probably smaller than what an XB1 slim would be, and due to noise I can't see a smaller one really being an upgrade... it seems unlikely at least at present.
Plus I can't imagine releasing a slim SKU now would goose their sales.

I liked the also fake Bone Slim better:

Since the PS4 is still quite new (not even 15 months old), still selling at it's original price, still selling very good - would it even make sense from a business standpoint to release a slim version for an assumed lower price this year?
Given their history of revisions they will eventually announce a PS4 Slim, but in the 2nd year of the hardware's lifecycle I just don't see it.
My guess would be E3 2016 at the earliest.

If that was real and around the size of a mac mini I would have bought one.
When I think about it we will never see a slim as small as the pstwo ever again, that thing was made by wizards to get it so tiny.

So the Blu-Rays get dropped down into the TOP of the unit, standing up?

Why does it have an optical disc slot?

It also makes toast
The ps2 slim was literally a graphics chip attached to a dvd reader. The new consoles have way more going on inside them.
I think this is fake but it's not unlikely that both Microsoft and Sony will introduce revisions of their hardware because of a few important manufacturing advancements, namely 20nm APUs and (for Sony) the availability of 1GB GDDR5 memory chips.
I also expect price cuts because of this.

looks like a printer/scanner combo
In case you still think this is real:

So fake. Internal Sony documents don't look like this

I would love if in the future they release a $99 version with no optical drive but 2 hdd slots so I can fit all my games on it.

Looks bad, and easily fake. Why would they release a slim so early? 2016 at the earliest.

PS4 is small enough, at what point is it too small. I like my devices to have some presence.
How else am I supposed to share my screenshots? "Xbox Print That".
Well there it is...
And this thread has provided some hilarious posts. Thanks the fake leaker for that!
That's what I'm thinking. Seems like some fan design.

Looks amazing. If it is real WOW! Somehow doubt this thing would not be a fire starter though.

The current ps4 is is the size of the original ps3 slim model. I would assume they will do it by next year to cut costs down and lower the price, but since it's selling really really good I don't think it's ever happening anytime soon. There is nothing wrong with the current ps4 in term of reliability except for the controllers and that's replaceable.
