I'm not sure if the reduction percent has been measured yet for the PS4 Slim so this thread either announces or confirms it.

Using the size comparison images I worked out these dimensions.

PS4 - 275mm x 273mm x 55mm = 4,129,125mm3

PS4 Slim - 259mm x 246mm x 40mm = 2,548,560mm3

That gives us a reduction of 38.3%, similar to the recent reduction of the XB1.

They made it 40% smaller by removing power supply and adding the giant power supply cable that one can swing like a medieval flail.

Power pack still internal

I thought the PS4 was ok. But had waaay more respect for sony when i saw it next to an XB1 for the first time. Then MS released the XB1s, which is still even bigger than the PS4. And i watched a teardown of it and it's remarkably well put together.

Which brings me to the PS4s...... I have no idea how Sony does this shit.

they should have made the top white and the bottom black, so that it would look even smaller

What's shocking is that the PS4 OG top side is more of a square than the slim.

So much for a realistic medieval game!  I guess I'll just have to swing my broad sword :)

It's done with mirrors and slight of hand.

Interesting to know. I have an accurate 1:1 screenshot of that.

Does that include the power brick?



 

The PS5 Exists.

The slim still uses an internal power supply. 



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
