Ps4 – Will US PS4 work on 220V

hardwareps4

I bought a new PS4 Batman bundle from Amazon.com and I was wondering if it will work on 220V. I asked the support in Amazon and did some research and people say that it would work, however when I chatted with PS support agent she said that it may or may not work! And she said that US PS may not work in other regions because it was designed specifically for US region. I thought that PS4 is region free no?

I went to Game Stop and a rep there confirmed that it will work on 220V

Can someone please confirm if it will work or not on 220V?

While "officially" Sony says North American PlayStation 4 consoles only accept 120 V, the power supplies the console actually ships with do support 100-240V at 50 or 60 Hz. This is confirmed by an iFixit thread asking this same question:

jrjessjuliet: Ok guys this is the final answer and please take note!! All ps4 models irrespective of region or model number are dual voltage! It's a portable console so it can travel with you to any country from 110v to 240v since it has a voltage regulator build in. I'm living in Malaysia with 240v but I'm using an Amazon PS4 from US with a rated 120v without any issues!!!

Joe: The ps4 120 V is dual voltage.. I took the risk; I plugged it in and it works . Don t worry guys ;)

You can safely verify this yourself by checking for this label underneath your PS4, near where the power cord attaches:

The above picture was taken from iFixit's PlayStation 4 teardown, which also states:

The power supply is rated at an AC Input of 100-240 volts. This means you can take your game around the world with your trusty PS4 always at your side; just remember to bring your power socket adapters.
