PS4

The Original and Basic first model of PS4 comes with AMD Jaguar octa-core processor, 8GB of GDDR5 RAM, and a 500GB or 1TB hard drive. It supports HDR but does not support the 4K version.

PS4 Slim: 

The PS4 Slim is the same as the Original version of PS4 standard version, but the key difference is that the PS4 slim is a more compact and slim version, The hardware specification, features and storage  500GB /1TB variations are the same as the standard version of PS4 als few design changes.

PS4 Pro:

PS4 Pro is quite different from the Standard version of PS4 and the PS4 Slim. PS4 Pro is a more powerful, upgraded version of GPU and faster CPU compared with the Standard version of PS4 and PS4 Slim. The Key Difference of PS4 is to experience 4K gaming and better capabilities with the latest version of TV’s. It offers higher frame rates, better graphics and performance.
