The PlayStation Neo is the PlayStation 4 Pro, Sony revealed today at PlayStation's press conference.
Sony's Andrew House said that the PS4 Pro will "stand alongside and complement the original PS4" with its 4K and HDR capabilities. The same game discs and downloads will run on the PS4 and PS4 Pro.
The PS4 Pro has a boosted CPU clock rate, a 1 terabyte hard drive, and more than double the power of the PS4 GPU.

Additionally, a new Netflix app with 600 hours of 4K content, including Marvel's Luke Cage, will be available at launch. YouTube is also developing an app for the PS4 Pro that supports 4K content.
Every PS4 will be HDR-capable with a firmware update next week. The PS4 Pro will be available on November 10 for $399 USD.
