Sony may be working on newer PS4, PS3 models – rumour

4.4
Sony has registered two PlayStation models with the Indonesian Ministry of Communications, indicating that a hardware revision could be on the way.


The first listing on a website related to the Indonesian Ministry of Communications shows the model number (CUH-1106A). The Asian PS4 model name is (CUH-1006A), and as DualShockers suggest, this could indicate a newer revision of sorts of the PS4 model, not a completely new model like the older Slim to the original PS3.

DualShockers also adds that this might not be a model with a bigger hard-drive, as the hard-drive is indicated by the last letter, which is unchanged.

The second listing is a PS3 listing, with the model name (CECH-4306CH), which seems to be following the model number of the Super Slim model (CECH-4001A), indicating that a revision of the Super Slim line is also on the cards.

If this is indeed a newer model, Sony could be announcing at E3 next month, we’ll find out soon enough.

Potion The PS4 is already a really small console i can only wonder how much smaller they will be able to make it.


They couldn't make it much smaller without making it too small to withstand drops and stuff.


Yeah i don't think consoles really need to be durable, because its not like a mobile phone or DS.

A console is not built to withstand drops, it's not a phone. They will probably just use more efficient parts that require less power, like many of the 360 upgrades.

*Internal power brick.
Auto correct on ios is just amazing.

Oasis The ps4's design was clearly rushed anyway so it could do with a fresh look.


How was it rushed? Most people find the design superior in looks to the xbox one, and it houses stronger hardware and an internal power rock in smaller shell.

Might be a hardware revision more than a size reduction. This would be similar to the xbox 360 model changes from xenon to jasper (and everything in between), just making the console more effiecient.
