graphics
The biggest question in the gaming world is; which one has better graphics However, it is very difficult to answer. We say difficult because if you compare the graphics of the current Xbox 360 to the PS3, it will vary from game to game and generally the difference is not that big. It all depends on the way the games are made.
The only way to judge the graphics of both consoles is to look at what’s going on under the hood: check the GPU, CPU, and core system memory running the program.
Xbox One vs. Sony PS4 – Controllers
Microsoft has made some minor redesigns and redesigns of Kinect. Microsoft claims that they have made over forty improvements. However, most of the changes are related to ergonomics. An integrated battery compartment, new triggers and Wi-Fi Direct will come with the new controller.
PS4 – Moderate redesign and integrated Move
Sony has made some serious changes here. Now, there will be a motion light on the back of the controller, which will function as the
Move the motion control ‘sticks’. There is also a share button that allows you to instantly share gameplay moments. Sony has given a completely new look to Sixaxis. However, the shape of the controllers is very similar to the current model, but users will now get more control with a touchpad that sits between the D-pad and the buttons.
xbox one hardware
The Xbox One processor will be based on AMD’s Jaguar architecture. It will use a 1.75 GHz x86-64 octa-core APU that comes with 8 GB of DDR3 RAM with a memory bandwidth of 68.3 GB/s. However, according to some reports, 3GB of RAM will be reserved for the operating system and gaming applications.
The memory subsystem will also come with an additional 32MB of “onboard static” RAM, or eSRAM, with a memory bandwidth of 102GB/s.
The console has a Blu-ray Disc optical drive and a 500 GB non-replaceable hard drive.
The graphics processing unit (GPU) will run on AMD GCN. It will have a total of 768 cores running at 853 MHz providing an estimated maximum theoretical power of 1.31 TFLOPS.
The game console will feature Wi-Fi Direct, Gigabit Ethernet and 802.11n wireless for networking.
The Xbox One will support 4K (3840 × 2160) (2160p) resolution video output and 7.1 surround sound. The Xbox One will have an HDMI 1.4 for both input and output, however it will not support composite or component video.
PlayStation 4 hardware
The heart of both consoles is similar. Both have a processor developed by AMD. The PlayStation 4 will also use an AMD processor. The PS4’s CPU consists of eight x86-64 cores packed with 8GB of GDDR5 memory that will give the console considerable longevity.
The system can run at a maximum clock speed of 2.75 GHz. The PS4 will also come with secondary custom chips. This chip basically performs tasks associated with downloading, uploading, and social gaming.
The PS4 will support photos and videos at 4K resolution, but it’s not expected to be able to play games beyond 1080p. The console will have a 500 GB hard drive for additional storage, which can be upgraded by the user.
For networking, the PlayStation 4 will support Bluetooth, 2 USB 3.0 ports, and WiFi. Users will be able to include an auxiliary port for connection to the PS4 camera,
A mono headset, which can be connected to the DualShock 4, will come bundled with the system.
Who is more powerful?
The simple answer is the PS4. Look at the technical reasons mentioned above, it is clear that the PS4 is more powerful.
Do you know that the news that Sony’s PS4 is (almost) categorically more powerful than the Xbox One is one of the reasons why the PS4 pre-order sold out before the Xbox One?
However, it’s worth noting that there are likely to be only minor differences in the titles released for both consoles. There is little benefit to a developer in making one version much prettier than the other.
Design
Xbox One: 3.18kg, 10% larger than 360 design and ‘big black box’,
PS4: 2.8kg, tilted design,
Xbox One is big, while PS4 is sleeker, slimmer and will easily fit in the space under the TV.

Price
This is a deciding factor, where PS4 clearly wins.
Xbox One = $499 (US), £429 (UK), and $599 (Australia).
PS4 = $399 (US), £349 (UK), €399 (Europe), and $549 (Australia)
The PS4 Camera, formerly known as the PlayStation 4 Eye, will cost $59 in the US, £54 in the UK and $99 in Australia. Even after this, the PS4 is still cheaper.
Sony may have a clear advantage this holiday season, because it is priced lower than its competitor.
According to Eurogamer, Sony will make a loss of around $60 per unit, but it’s a marketing ploy. Sony is actually looking for typical users who purchase a PlayStation Plus subscription and at least one launch title. That’s why Sony hopes to make a profit on the PS4 sooner.
