That 4k blu ray player being the $100 difference im assuming too. If it didn't have that, it would probably be $399 like the Pro. So for Sony fans, they get a 4k console at a $100 less. 

 

But even then it's largely irrelevant as most ppl just go for the cheapest option. As in the S model, a PS4 slim or Switch. X and Pro will only sell a fraction of their cheaper cousins, making this whole topic redundant. 

You mean the same 4K blu ray player that's in the Xbox One S for $249? Are you trying to say that the Xbox One S would "probably be $149" if it wasn't for the 4K blu-ray drive by the same logic? That 4K blu-ray drive doesn't cost nearly as much as you think.

Really? How come standalone 4K players are between $300-$500 by themselves? Is Microsoft using the crappiest 4k player they could find? Or are they simply taking a loss on it?
