No 4K Blu-ray player or 4K streaming
No optical audio out port
No PS4 Pro-like hardware improvements
No optical audio output
Online multiplayer requires a PS Plus subscription
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
4K resolution limited to PS4 Pro model
Lacks the UHD Blu-ray drive of the similarly priced Xbox One S
Pack-in DualShock 4 controller still has abysmal battery life
Excellent video game exclusives, Great way to experience VR, Same power as original PS4 but slimmer model
4K resolution limited to PS4 Pro model,
The PlayStation 4 Slim really is just the original PS4 model in a smaller shell—that's it. All the hardware is the same and will play exactly like a thicker PS4. What it won't do is play like a PS4 Pro, which has 4K support and more power. What the PS4 Sl...
Excellent exclusive games, Fantastic value for money, Dualshock 4 controller is great
No 4K Blu-ray player or 4K streaming, No optical audio out port
As a games console, the PS4 Slim is every bit as fantastic as the launch PS4. It offers the same specs, the same great library of games and services but now in a slimmer, sleeker form. Where the PS4 Slim slips up is with its lack of 4K Blu-ray and 4K stre...

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...
More compact than before, Quieter performance, Even more portable than before, No more distracting LED strip
Lacks the UHD Blu-ray drive of the similarly priced Xbox One S, Pack-in DualShock 4 controller still has abysmal battery life, Only available with a 500GB disk
In a vacuum, the PlayStation 4 Slim is a great console. It's smaller, quieter and much more portable than the original PS4. But unless you need a new console right now and are on a strict budget, there's no reason to buy it when the higher-powered PS4...

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...
Faster Wi-Fi can make a big difference, Smaller chassis with fun design, Same great PS4 game library, More affordable than ever
No more optical port, More powerful PS4 console also available
Yes, if you don't already own a PS4. The PlayStation 4 Slim is the most affordable version of this generation's most popular console and, therefore, a great way to experience all of the amazing games this generation on a budget. However, if you can wait a...
