Sony released some screenshots of PlayStation 4 firmware update v4.00 yesterday, and we figured that we'd pick them apart in a super simple video for you. While we don't have access to any video footage yet – we'll get that when the beta goes live, no doubt – there's a lot to glean from the refresh's first batch of screenshots.
One thing of interest we noticed is the new default background – a glittery, bokeh effect similar to the animated wallpaper employed on the PlayStation 3. There's also a glimpse of the new customisable Quick Menu and the kind of things that you can include on it, as well as a look at the updated profile page, which has gone a bit Facebook.

It all looks good. I especially like the quick menu.
I wonder if they will have a gender-fluid option. Otherwise there will be unecessary complaints.
Folders! Finally, I can now unclutter my XMB.All that leaves now is external hard drive support and I'm a happy bunny.
Edit: Actually scratch that. I've just had another crash since update 3.55. If I were to count them I'd need to take my socks off and have an abacus handy too. It's been a lot. So fix that first please, the rest can wait.
Edit2: 2 more crashes with CE-34878-0 since last edit. Is anyone else having this problem?
@SoakedCarrot That was really unnessecary and not funny.
I signed up for the beta and usually get in, but nothing from Sony as of yet. I actually hope to get in on this one, some of these changes look great.
Out of interest, do we know when this will be out for the public?
The codes for the beta access for the new firmware have been sent out so check your emails
External HDD support plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
That does look noice
So no custom background? Disappointing.
This update lacks well what any major update supplies, big features. the folders features is pretty weak honestly.
It's beginning to feel like they are doing the least work possible with each update honestly. It makes me a bit sad,
