US PS4 says 110V can I use 220V?

US PS4 says 110V can I use 220V?

Before in plug in my USA PS4 here in the UK do I risk damaging it as the exterior info etched onto the box suggests it only supports 110V 60 Htz? Your very helpful tear down stated that the US box you examined would accept upto 240V. How did this internal observation compare with the external info please?

"I have gotten ps3 slim from north america and connected it to a 220 to 240 voltage and it works just fine so also does the ps4 i got from north america, they all have either 110 or 120 volt on them but they can hold higher voltage which is a smart move by sony. All you need to do is change the power cord that connects to the wall and your console will work fine.

"They are all 110-220v.

The BIG problem is the Zone for games and DVD's.

All America is Zone 1.........we and bloody Europe are Zone 2, Zone 3 is Asia and Zone 4 is where 99% of people can't buy them!!!!

Hope that helps all of you not aware that unless you buy a pirated game somewhere, which are hacked to all Zones, picking up a game or DVD in the USA will not play on your XBox One or PS4.

Cheers,

"For those of you that think sony might want you to buy another PS4 in another place to get there products sold more, is not fully the case here. I know it could say Universal, (meaning the PS4 should work everywhere) but that's not how companies work these days. Think about it, what if it ""did"" say Universal? You wouldn't know what's recommended, so what if you need to replace the easiest and simplest thing in your PS4, but you need the exact Voltage, that would mess up your day... not to mention your PS4. But I know that it ""could"" say ""this PS4 is universal, but 120V is recommended,"" but sadly they don't have that these days. They don't expect you to take your PS4 everywhere you go, (which is pretty stupid because what to we do 24/7?) they put the voltage number based on where it was made.

I have bought PS4 just from Australia. Can I use the same in India ? Or it require to buy new power cord or just to change the pin adapter and can run the same?
