Adding HDR and a new-look, Sony’s powerful Playstation 4 has become even more spectacular. Once you plug in this slick console, you’ll get immersive gaming at rapid speeds and with unprecedented visuals. Together with the remastered DualShock 4 controller, cross-compatible PS4 games, and wealth of social capabilities, this is a behemoth of modern gaming.
Stunning New Design
Sleek and stylishly reimagined, this Sony Playstation 4(PS4) 500GB will be a joy to look at on your AV shelf.
HDR Gaming
The Sony Playstation 4(PS4) 500GBÂ is fully compatible with the HDR10 specification. High Dynamic Range (HDR) is a display standard that allows for increased color depth and improved contrast compared to Standard Dynamic Range found on traditional HDTVs. In general, HDR-enabled content played on an HDR-compatible TV produces a noticeably fuller, richer image that is closer to what the human eye naturally sees. That means much deeper black levels that retain finer details, brighter highlights, and a much wider color spectrum than on traditional HDTVs.
Powerful hardware
The PlayStation’s graphics processing unit (GPU) contains a unified array of 18 Compute Units, which collectively generate 1.84 teraflops of processing power that can be applied freely to graphics, simulation tasks, or a mixture of the two. The PS4 is also equipped with 8GB of unified system memory, easing game creation and increasing the richness of content achievable. High-speed GDDR5 is used for the memory, giving the system a total of 176 GB/s of bandwidth and providing a further boost to graphics performance.
Brilliant Blu-ray
We love streaming our favorite shows and films, however, there’s something magical about sliding a Blu-ray disk into your player and preparing to watch as you tuck into snacks, then of course enjoying your film in glorious Full HD. If you‘re lucky enough to have 3D television, the PS4 can also play your 3D Blu-ray disks, for a truly immersive viewing experience.
Remastered DualShock 4
Sony has made its DualShock 4 Controller more ergonomic and visually appealing. Not only does the light bar shine through the top of the touchpad, but the D-Pad and joysticks have also been given an attractive grey make-over. Furthermore, the body is easier to grip, so you’ll game in absolute comfort. This is on top of returning features such as the six-axis sensor and touch-pad.
Personalized, Curated Content
The PlayStation 4 has the ability to learn your preferences. It will gauge your likes and dislikes and suggest content to match them. This allows you to discover content specifically tailored to you. It can even download and install content on your console. Search for games in your favorite genres or by your favorite game developers. You can also look over game-related information shared by your friends, view your friends’ gameplay, or get recommendations for content, such as games, TV shows, and movies.
Share button
Engage in endless personal challenges with your community, and share your epic triumphs with the press of a button. Simply hit the Share button on the controller, scan through the last few minutes of gameplay, tag it and return to the game – the video uploads as you play. The PS4 system also enables you to broadcast your gameplay in real-time.
No restrictions
PlayStation 4 doesn’t place sharing restrictions on disc-based games, so you can simply hand a game to your friend for them to try at home for as long as they want, no strings attached.
PlayStation Plus
While PlayStation Plus is not required for services such as Netflix, or sharing gameplay via the Share button, it does provide additional features to enhance your PS4 experience. The most important feature of PlayStation Plus is your ability to play online multiplayer. If you do not have a PlayStation Plus membership, you will not be able to play online.
PlayStation Plus also provides exclusive access to a regular, curated selection of titles at no additional cost known as the Instant Game Collection. In addition to free monthly games, PlayStation Plus members also get regular discounts in the PlayStation Store. PlayStation Plus also provides members with the ability to automatically (or manually) upload game save files to the Online Game Save Storage for safekeeping. PlayStation Plus members will have up to 1GB of cloud storage to allocate their PS4 save files. Other benefits of having a PlayStation Plus membership include early access to exclusive game content, automatic game patch downloads and installations, and more.
