The PlayStation 4 (PS4) gaming console lineup includes various models, each with its own power consumption characteristics. Here we examine the power consumption of three main PS4 models: the standard PS4, PS4 Slim, and PS4 Pro. Personally, I previously had a PS4 Slim, and now I have a PS4 Pro.
Standby mode/sleep mode
- PS4: 0.5 watts
- PS4 Slim: 0.5 watts
- PS4 Pro: 0.5 watts
In standby mode or sleep mode, when the console is in low power consumption mode and ready to quickly resume operation, all three models have the same minimum power consumption.
Standby mode/sleep mode – with Internet connection
- PS4: 3 watts
- PS4 Slim: 3 watts
- PS4 Pro: 3 watts
Connecting the consoles to the Internet in standby mode has some impact, all models maintain a stable power consumption of 3 watts.
Inactivity on the home screen
- PS4: 85 watts
- PS4 Slim: 50 watts
- PS4 Pro: 75 watts
In an inactive state on the home screen, we observe variations in power consumption. The PS4 Slim stands out with the lowest consumption at 50 watts, while the standard PS4 and PS4 Pro consume 85 watts and 75 watts, respectively.
Media streaming
- PS4: 90 watts
- PS4 Slim: 55 watts
- PS4 Pro: 87 watts
Media playback reveals the PS4 Slim as the most energy-efficient option with a consumption of 55 watts, while the standard PS4 and PS4 Pro consume 90 watts and 87 watts, respectively.
Less demanding gaming
- PS4: 100 watts
- PS4 Slim: 77 watts
- PS4 Pro: 145 watts
When playing less demanding or older games, power consumption varies, and the PS4 Slim again has the lowest consumption at 77 watts.
Demanding gaming
- PS4: 145 watts
- PS4 Slim: 110 watts
- PS4 Pro: 160 watts
When playing more demanding games, power consumption increases, and the PS4 Pro becomes the largest consumer at 160 watts, while the standard PS4 and PS4 Slim consume 145 watts and 110 watts, respectively.
Maximum consumption:
- PS4: 250 watts
- PS4 Slim: 165 watts
