PS4 PlayMemories App Gains 4K Support

PS4_PlayMemories_AppIf in your arsenal of entertainment devices you have a PS4 and a 4K television then the following news is specifically for you. Sony has updated the PlayMemories App on PS4 with 4K support. For those unfamiliar, PlayMemories syncs your photos between your different devices (think iCloud & Photo Stream) for easy access and consumption. While 4K video is something new for consumers, digital cameras have been able to capture at that resolution for many years. Now those with a 4K TV will have an easy way to consume their photos. Details after the jump.

PlayMemories App 1.5 Changelog:

  • Faster browsing of large numbers of photos and videos stored in PlayMemories Online.
  • Support for 4K resolution for still images. Highly precise and comfortable representation even when listing a large number of photos.
  • Support for video playback.

While not the 4K video output we’ve been hoping which has been hinted at by Netflix, this is a good first step for 4K enthusiasts.
