All the rumours I've read say a better gpu. some say higher clocked CPU. Some say about an hdmi in. And they also suggest that revs might have access to not all the extra power but some of it. Meaning games will be smoother and maintain 1080p a bit better. Also PSVR will be smoother with the upgrade.

Personally MS took them by surprise with their announcement. I think they were just going to release a slim PS4. But then saw MS announcement and have decided to add better hardware. The question is how it compares for power and price to Xbox version 2.

Again, no they didn't, Sony spoke of this months before MS made their statement. If anything MS have said what they said because they knew Sony had already mentioned it and they probably heard from developers before these sites did. I'm not saying that's what happened, just that if we assume one company is basically 'copying' the other, it HAS to be MS. From what I've read it looks like two different strategies to me but for some reason you've thrown the 'copying' card in there.

You will have to show me what Sony said last year. I'm not saying copying per se. I bellieve Sony were always going bring out a PS 4 slim with 4k video/Netflix. But im saying I believe MS announcement has made them increase power. For example a 2x better Generational GPU. Which all the rumours say. Sony could have added 4k video with the existing gpu. So the added power has nothing to do with 4k video.
