when did the playstation 4 pro come out
PlayStation 4 PlayStation 4 Pro (codenamed Neo)[39] was announced on September 7, 2016, and launched worldwide on November 10, 2016.[196] Its model number is CUH-7000.[197] It is an upgraded version of the PlayStation 4 with improved hardware to enable 4K rendering and improved PlayStation VR performance, including an upgraded GPU with 4.2 teraflops of processing power and hardware support for checkerboard rendering,[198] and a higher CPU clock. The PS4 Pro also includes 1 GB of DDR3 memory that is used to swap out non-gaming applications that run in the background, allowing games to utilize an additional 512 MB of the console's GDDR5 memory.[199] Games marketed as PS4 Pro Enhanced may be optimized for higher graphics quality, resolution, or HDR support when running on PS4 Pro.[200] Although capable of streaming 4K video, the PS4 Pro does not support Ultra HD Blu-ray.[201][202][203]
PlayStation Vita A revised model of the Vita was released in Japan on October 10, 2013, in Europe on February 7, 2014[105] and in North America on May 6, 2014.[106] The revised model, officially called the PCH-2000 series[107] and commonly referred to as the PS Vita Slim,[108] is 20% thinner and 15% lighter compared to the original model.[96] While it largely maintains the original's overall structure and layout, the original's OLED screen has been replaced with a lower-cost LCD display.[96] The model also roughly added about an extra hour of battery life.[96] The newer model also comes with 1Â GB of internal storage memory, although it is not possible to use both the internal memory and memory card concurrently.[109] Upon inserting a PS Vita memory card, the system will offer to copy the existing data from the internal memory to the new card.[110] This model has a micro USB Type B port, which can be used to charge the device along with any standard micro USB cable. The model was released in six colors in Japan (white, black, light blue, lime green, pink, and khaki),[96] although it was only released in black and light blue in North America and Europe.[111]
