I'm not talking about games. X1 S has full 4k video playback and HDR. Is this new ps4 slim adding support for 4k streaming and BD and HDR or this will only come with Neo? Hardware wise I don't see much reason why not adding this support. The only thing missing for ps4 be able to display 4k is a compatible HDMI output and in case of BD an updated laser cannon.

The Playstation 4 already can already technically output at 4k. It has the HDMI port to do it, albeit you would be limited to 30fps/hz.
The Blu-Ray drive is the real kicker though.

For the PS4 Slim to have 4k/60hz and HDR, they will likely need to respin the PS4 silicon and update various library's to include that support in conjunction with a new Blu-Ray drive.

It's entirely possible that is the path they are taking, but we will need to wait on Sony for confirmation.

Thus far the Xbox One S is a media-power house that the Playstation can't match at the moment (HDR, 4k, Codec/File support/NTFS, Audio Discs etc'), doubt Sony will allow Microsoft to beat it on features for too long.
