          Microsoft Xbox One X vs Sony Playstation 4 - User Opinions

            So the big question in what you're paying for are the differences. The Xbox One X is smaller, plays 4K Blu-ray discs, and promises to run games at 60 fps and 4K. The PlayStation 4 Pro also plays games in 4K (though frame rates have varied from game to game) and has a VR headset that you can grab right now.Aug 13, 2020

            The Xbox One X has more power, better graphics (when games take advantage of that extra power) and backwards compatibility. The PS Pro has the better exclusives and virtual reality. Oh, and it's also £100 cheaper, at £339 vs £449. Plus you usually get a free game bundled in with the PlayStation.
