The editors liked
The PlayStation 4 serves up dazzling graphics
Runs on a simplified and logical interface and boasts a fantastic controller. It has the upper hand in indie games and can stream a constantly growing list of legacy titles via PlayStation Now. The PS4 makes
Great games
Good value
Improved power efficiency
PS Plus still a great deal
DualShock 4 better than ever
The latest version of the DualShock controller feels excellent and is very responsive
Controller is charged over microUSB
Still plays Blu-rays and DVDs! Graphics look excellent on titles developed for the console
The editors didn't like
The Xbox One has a slight edge in non-gaming entertainment features such as streaming content and media portal apps
Optical audio removed
No 4K Bluray player
Menu system tries to look modern
But really feels clumsy
Will not let you access content from your network
Design is kind of misleading
And throws the first-time user a curve when trying to load discs

Heaps of top-notch games, can play HDR games (if you have a compatible TV), finally adds media and app/streaming capabilities absent at launch, holds masses of future potential
Media streaming can be fussy, 500GB storage insufficient, Store download prices often absurdly high, no 4K video, PS4 Slim and Pro put question mark over this original console
On its third birthday, the Sony PlayStation 4 finds itself as part of the front-running console family. It's the one to buy if you find it for a bargain, otherwise the PS4 Slim is the natural (and near-identical) replacement. If you want 4K gaming and ext...
While we have to be remain neutral we can't help feel that Sony have finally got their Marketing spot on (at last!) with the launch of the PS4 and in doing so have won several rounds against Microsoft who have also surprised us in the way the new console...
Great games, Good value, Improved power efficiency, PS Plus still a great deal, DualShock 4 better than ever
Optical audio removed, No 4K Blu, ray player
An excellent console with a great catalogue of AAA games, the slimmer, smaller PS4 is better in almost every way compared to the original, barring one notable exception...
Both the new PS4 and the PS4 Pro offer visual advantages over the angular launch PS4, although that's where the similarities end. Sony's PS4 Pro looks to offer an enhanced gaming experience with higher framerates, increased resolution and higher quality t...
Lacks 4K Blu-ray player, PS4 Pro launch on the horizon
Despite being nearly three years old, it's still easy to see why the PS4 has enjoyed the success it has. Although it looks great on the outside, on the inside it does just enough to edge the Xbox One in this round of the console war.In most multi-platform...

On the approach to its third birthday, the Sony PlayStation 4 finds itself in the esteemed position as new-gen console front-runner. Not necessarily just in terms of numbers, but arguably in terms of quality exclusive games, with Uncharted 4 and Blo...

We hate to say it, but there is no right choice. The PS4 has raw horsepower on its side, but the Xbox One wins out on entertainment features. Things could easily and quickly change on that front, however. In terms of betting on future potential, we'd put...

Abstract: Before we start, the new CUH-1200 C-Chassis model brings some curious physical changes. Gone is the PS4's glossy panel, and the new revision gives us a uniformly matte surface on top - a material less prone to dust and scratches build-up. Smart, depressib...

The PlayStation 4 is a beautiful console in a physical sense and the most accessible console I have ever used. It tries to help and automate as much as possible of the tasks involved in the background of running and using a console. It has many inherent b...
