They will both be $399.99. I wouldn't pay $299.99 for the cheaper OG XB1 or PS4 Vanilla models, we've seen this before with the XBox 360 which had the gimped cheaper model or the Wii U (Basic/Premium), people overwhlemingly chose the more expensive option because it offers them better value.

if in the end Scorpion and Neo get similar graphical capacity (as with Ps4-X1) then yes, both will have the same price. But, to our knowledge, the Scorpion is much stronger than the NEO. So I find it hard to believe that the price of them will be the same ... Alson $399 for a machine whit a 6 Tflops GPU , rumored to carry 12 GB ddr5 and a new CPU, in my view, is a little unreal... perhaps $450 take a look at this, this dude can explain much better:

The Polaris 10 that the Scorpio is likely using (a modified version of) is not that expensive. It's actually cheaper than the equivalent GPUs the PS4/XB1 used for 2013 (they were based on the 2012 7850-7870 these GPUs were $250-$350, the Polaris 10 is $200).
Price of RAM comes down, 12GB in 2017 will cost MS likely less than 8GB cost Sony in 2013.
Too many people seem to be amazed that technology gets better and cheaper as time goes on. PS4/XB1 in tech terms are ancient, they're like a 50-year-old woman. No they're not going to die any time soon, but they're not exactly in their looking dead sexy in a swimsuit during spring break phase either.
