Sony released PS4 firmware 2.50. There are very big changes with this latest version, but the biggest two are surely the suspend/resume and 60fps Remote Play. Of course, we all knew that this update is coming, but we wanted to know how these things were.
Check out below :

Installation
First of all, you need to update your PS4. Go to the Settings menu, and then scroll down to System Software Update. Select Next, and then Update. Wait for the installation to finish, and your PS4 will reboot itself. When you see a notification that the new system software was installed, everything's fine.

Suspend and resume
Now, rest mode has been a feature of the PS4 since day one, but it never worked the way everyone wanted it to. Sure, it would put your console into a low-power state, but it shut down all of the active applications while doing so. Thankfully, this update to rest mode finally allows you to quickly return to what you were doing.

To suspend, simply press and hold the PS button on your controller, and then scroll down to Enter Rest Mode. Your PS4 will put itself to sleep, and you’ll hear the fans spin down. To resume, simply press the PS button once more. At least for me, it only takes about 23 seconds to resume playing.


60fps Remote Play
For this Remote Play update to work, you’ll need to update your PlayStation Vita or Playstation TV as well. Head to the Settings app, and select System Update to do that. Once you’re patched, launch the PS4 Link app, and you're good to go.

If you enjoyed the thread, please leave a like, comment and tell me what you think. ;)
