“PS4 Neo is Still A PS4,” Says Sony Japan President
Morita discussed how, for long, the market has recognised the concept of a console life cycle, and that this was something PlayStation historically moved according to. However, with increasing convergence, and developments in other markets, particularly the mobile and PC markets, Morita feels that it is time to reconsider the old approach.
With PS4 Neo, Morita implies that Sony is looking to bring in something more akin to PC, with faster, iterative updates that bring enhanced experiences, without completely upsetting the existing ecosystem.
Both the PS4 and the Xbox One have experienced incredibly fast uptake, the PS4 especially: There are over 40 million PS4 units out in world as of now. Understandably, Sony’s playing it safe with the Neo, offering it as, essentially, an enhanced PS4, to avoid alienating early PS4 adopters.

I own PC and just use it... Xbox one and ps4 shouldn't be PC. Console and PC are separate experiences one is casual couch the other is more hardcore...PC consoles are going to be over priced and cheap like iPhones are now. Yearly updates with minor changes is dumb.

I own a PS4 but never used it myself. Not sure why. This Neo notice is weird. It's a PS4 at the end of the day.
