What reviewers say
Reviewers agree it was the most powerful console of its time, delivering detailed 4K HDR games in a compact case with a 4K Blu-ray drive. The common criticisms are the price, a thin line-up of exclusives and gains that can be marginal without a 4K TV; TechRadar also found the 1TB drive filled quickly with large 4K games.
