PS4 has come a long way. There are three versions of PS4 now: PS4 Slim, PS4, and PS4 Pro. The PS4 Slim, thought to be overshadowed by PS4 Pro, now has doubled its storage while keeping the same price!
PS4 Slim doubles storage for the same price!
Recently, Sony has revamped the slim version of the PlayStation 4. The notable upgrade is that now the PS4 Slim has doubled its storage. However, its price remains the same. The console was introduced back in September along with the powerful PS4 Pro. At that time, it only had 500GB of storage. Now, having that doubled, each device now will have 1TB of storage out of the box, starting now.
The PS4 Slim price remains the same, for $299.99. Microsoft Xbox One S also has the same price, but only offers half of the storage (500GB). There are a few bundles with the 1TB version for the price of $349.99. Aside from the increased storage, and a slightly redesigned DualShock 4 controller, the Sony slim device stays largely the same. Sony has announced that the new device will arrive at big retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop right in April.

The best console from now is still the PS4 Pro, with the price tag of $399.99. It supports 4K gaming and 4K movies, since it has enhanced hardware compared to the other two. Even for 1080p television, the PS4 Pro can enhance performance on some games. Also, it is worth noting that the PS4 and PS4 Pro’s built-in hard drives are easy to swap out with something more powerful and efficient, such as a SSD. For PS4 Slim, however, an increased storage at the same price is never bad. So, it is up to you to choose.
PS4 is still Sony’s main asset for future
With this move, now the PS4 Slim offer more than its Microsoft counterpart on value-for-money. This can be a very smart move from Sony, to push the sale of the slim PS4. Are you going to buy this slim console?
