Unsure if you should pick up an Xbox One S or a PS4 Pro? Why don’t you let us help with a handy table comparing specifications.
Without further adieu, here are the details you’re after:
PS4 Pro | Xbox One S | |
Price | $559.95 AUD (1TB) | $499.00 AUD (1TB) |
Storage | 1 TB | 500 GB, 1TB, (limited edition 2TB) |
CPU | x86-64 AMD ‘Jaguar’, 8-core | 1.75GHz AMD 8-core APU |
GPU | 4.20 TFLOPS, AMD Radeon-based | 914 MHz AMD Radeon GCN |
Memory | 8GB GDDR 5 | 8GB DDR 3 (5GB available for games) |
Compatible games | All PS4 titles | All Xbox One titles, all approved Xbox 360 backwards compatible games |
HDR game playback | Yes (compatible titles) | Yes (compatible titles) |
4K game playback | Yes (via upscaling, native resolution) | Yes (via upscaling) |
HDR video playback | Yes (compatible titles) | Yes (compatible titles) |
4K video playback | Yes (streaming video only) | Yes (streaming video, Blu-ray) |
Size (inches) | 11.6 x 12.8 x 2 | 9 x 11.5 x 2.5 |
So there you have it — the Xbox One S has an advantage in terms of game library, but the PS4 Pro does a bit more with overall power. The Pro also has better 4K gaming playback, but loses points for a lack of 4K Blu-ray support. All the 4K and HDR stuff is also moot if you don’t have the TV for it.
While the Xbox One S looks underpowered compared the PS4 Pro, don’t forget that the rumoured specs for Microsoft’s Project Scorpio look to blow the Pro out of the water.
