Why would you need to sell it?

If you look at TV market it's getting hard to get quality model with FHD resolution - soon they will be bargain bin only.
I'm expecting ‎399 (price of the original PS4 here in Europe). To bring the price up to the heights of the original XboxOne would be nothing short of madness.

I don't see why that would necessarily be the case. The Slim is pretty much just taking the place of the current PS4 systems as they run out of stock and the Neo is a new product people have been expecting. They have some overlap but not a whole lot. Still, yea likely it's coming next year.

Definitely agree, I just hope the Neo is in place for this year, it'll be games (software) that'll delay it.
because if he wants a neo or a slim (or just the money), the moment these get announced officially, used prices of PS4 are going to get down fast. Many people then sell their "old" model to get the new ones. You get definitely get more if you sell now than after sept. 7th.

Permabanned.
think it's time to wake up.
PS4 Slim will be about £250 for the 500GB model. £230 absolute lowest if they want to undercut the XB1S (£250 w/FIFA 17 bundle 500GB). As for Neo, I'd guess £400-450
4k HDR would take another 2 to 3 years to really take off. By then there would PS5 and neo would be a lot cheaper.
There are some people saying PS4 trade-in has already dropped to $150 from the initial $200. So it is unlikely the Slim would be anywhere close to that.

It's a driving factor of that technology though and Sony is certainly a company that will be pushing HDR device sales moving forward. Both in their TV division and probably VR. Possibly in Gen2 which probably is in that range as well.

Here I am patiently waiting for Neo...
I skipped PS4 because it didn't offer anything I didn't already have on PC. A UHD player that is also a 4K PS4 is worth buying, though.

I'm curious if there will be any significant changes to the Dualshock 4 with the Neo.

I really hope we get grip textures at least like they did with the Xbox One S. Sort of feels more like the Elite Controller now.

I really wish they add paddles.

Kills me that I have to do extensive modding to get proper macro functionality out of my Elite controller on PC. Microsoft really screwed over PC users looking for a premium controller. Maybe Sony can do right by us.
DVD still outsells Blu-Ray, and the overall physical media market is shrinking fast. UHD is is DOA beyond niche market.
Aside from that, Elite controller weighs too much and could lead some to repetitive strain hand & wrist issues.

Just checked Gamestop and can confirm the trade value for PS4 has dropped to 150

I'm not sure I can see a 4.2 teraflop Neo being $500, unless there are features we don't know about, or the infamous "bump".
$449 is what I'm leaning towards.
I don't think that will sway anyone from the XB1 Slim. Let's just hear the price first.

No. Why have this powerhouse console, miss the holidays? It will be October/November
Chinese Foxconn guy said that both the slim and NEO were in full production already

August 2017.
i would imagine bundles would be a good way to get rid of old stock though. unless they ceased manufacture a good while ago.
Wait, it's come and gone already without fanfare? Wow, must of been a nonevent this year since I didn't here anything and Sony is deciding a separate conference to announce their stuff...
Depends, either a week ago or exactly one year from now

I can't see this not undercutting the XB1S. Makes too much sense and harkens back to that E3
I sold mine last week in anticipation of the Neo. Didn't want the value to plummet.

Both this year... most like Slim in September and Neo in Octtober.
Makes no sense they release any of them in 2017.
Because I hardly use it, I kept it around for SFV and No Man Sky, both games under performed for me. Also, with neo coming out I'll probably just get that 6 months from now, who would want an old ps4 when they can have a slim or neo for cheaper?
This as well
Nvm I'll hold onto my ps4, I'm not paying anything above $400 for the Neo

Hmm, the Slim leak has me thinking there's a possibility Neo/Whatever might come early 2017. If it does hit in 2016, I'm going to guess a November 1st launch date. That's a Tuesday (the standard release day for most electronics/games/movies here in the US), and falls in line with the earlier documents about games being Neo-ready in October. The slim release also leads me to believe the Neo is going to be a bit more expensive than I'd guessed previously. I'm going to say either $450 or $499 with a 1tb standard HDD (maybe a game packed-in).
article is pr rewrite, numbers are tiny.
edit: they may not have even re-written it, lol.

Me too, for the PS4, camera and 2 pads £250, really happy with that.
