Wow, considering the internal PSU, that's a huge difference.
but i really dont know the console designers wtf was thinkin when they dont add feets on that side
this is really a ridiculous design ahahah someone need to be fired NOW for this haahah!
I think they purposefully designed it that big so that it would blend well with DVR's and such. PS4 is so small it would leave a lot of empty space on a shelf under the TV. Doesn't look too hot IMO.

dont even try to pin ms and sony's garbage designs on the rest of the tech world. Apple's console would eat these alive
Is the XB1 + the power brick the largest console ever?
OG PS3 was bigger but it had no power brick.
XB1 is a straight up HTPC kitbash MS threw together in a hurry. That, or they want this thing to look like it belongs in a home media stack.
Where is the top down view?
+ also the sides
honestly if it was 5 cm shorter (in horizontal) was nicer...but the design is lovely
I've seen the Xbox One in person. It really isn't all that big -- just a little bit bigger than the original 360 so overall it's a typical "first half of the gen" console size.
The PS4 is a "second half of the gen" slim size though making the Xbox One seem bigger than it actually is by comparison.
Now kinect though -- kinect is really big (for a camera accessory). Was surprised by its size when I saw it in person.
No, Atari 5200 and Philips CD-i were bigger.Is the XB1 + the power brick the largest console ever?

LOL what? Are you blind?They're quite similar actually. XB1 is a little bit wider but beside that they take roughly the same amount of space on the shelf.
Amazing. Oh wait, now I get it...I think they purposefully designed it that big so that it would blend well with DVR's and such. PS4 is so small it would leave a lot of empty space on a shelf under the TV. Doesn't look too hot IMO.
The vcr commets are about as dumb as saying the PS4 looks like an old eraser.
Heat vents on the top is such a bad design. Sure it's good if you are only conserned about temperature, but at the same time it's perfect dust trap. Should imho only be used as a last resort if you can't solve heat problems any other way.
The Xbox One looks like a VCR out of the 1980s and that's made even worse when one considers it doesn't have an internal power source. Kinect 2.0 is comically huge.
All that and a power brick!
If bigger = better go team Microsoft!
Could you link the thermals/sound of the Xbox One retail units. I'm not doubting you but the PS4 was considerably lower than expected. I really don't see this as an issue on the PS4.
Don't blame this on America. Apple engineers must have laughed their asses off when they saw that monstrosity.

No top down view? Heh.
Will look very nice next to my Verizon FiOS DVR:
I guess no accident there is a FiOS TV app at launch for Xbox One. I am very happy with the design for obvious reasons.

PS4 how are you so much smaller but more powerful and with internal power supply?
Why is the Xbox One so much larger when it is less powerful than the PS4?
