Xbone runs hotter than PS4, takes longer to boot too!
Quote:
Xbox One review embargo has been lifted and we are getting reviews from various technology websites. As details are pouring in, we are knowing more about the underlying hardware and can compare it to its competitor PlayStation 4.
Digital Foundry have also gotten their hands on an Xbox One and according to their measurement, the console will take a total of 1 minute and 8 seconds to start from a cold boot. Standby is much more convenient though and will only take 18 seconds.
1 minutes and 8 seconds is a lot of time and likely relates to the system loading the various operating systems in its memory. Digital Foundry also did a temperature test for Xbox One just like they did for PlayStation 4. This test really came as a surprise since the Xbox One produced more heat, despite having a bigger cooler and a more spacious design. The console produces less heat in idle mode and while playing a blu-ray movie but once we start gaming and multitasking, the temperature can shoot up far more than what we get on PlayStation 4. Gaming and multitasking leads to 45 Celsius(113 Fahrenheit) temperature on PlayStation 4, similar activity on Xbox One can bump the temperature up to 49 Celsius(120 Fahrenheit).
AnandTech also tried their hand on testing the standby power usage for Xbox One and compared it to PlayStation 4. While Xbox One had lower power consumption when it was actually turned on, it required almost double the power in standby mode, likely relating to the Kinect commands available in standby mode. If we put both of them side by side, Xbox One consumed 15.3W in standby compared to 8.59W of PlayStation 4.

PS4 can boot up in less than 30 seconds, if you're asking. And highwayuni, golden, sunshine,savemeoprah better buy extended warranties, no one wants RROD v2.0 after all, considering y'all xbone gets hotter than the King.

It probably gets hot because it has games to be played on it.

 Sony seems to care much more about user experience than Microsoft does.

You need to compromise, its either you have a cooler system that puts you to sleep or a system you're actually gonna use that uses more power.

I guess 1080p gaming is just too hot to handle for Xbone. 
And PS4 will remain the same temperature when Naughty Dog, Santa Monica, Media Molecule, Bend, Guerilla, Sucker Punch, Evolution, Quantic Dream, Japan Studio and Polyphony Digital joins the fray...
You better hide dem wigs, bitches...

Some of those games might have 1080p, but they can't even stabilize at 30fps. Even the new Mario game on Wii U can do 1080p and 60fps.

this!! I love the way people always said the PS3 was more powerful than the Xbox 360 but the 360 versions always looked better.
They can do miracles with lighting effects, and it's not that the XBOX ONE can't do 1080p, because Forza Motorsport 5 runs at 1080p on the XBOX ONE soooo yeah, it's up to the developer of the games, these are only launch games, we'll see in a year or two time which is better.
temp of console also depends on the room and how the console is being stored (e.g: vent is up against a wall)
Plus in my opinion, Xbox usually has better games, and franchises

I'm getting both consoles. I've thoroughly enjoyed my PS4 thus far though.

Well if your PS doesn't end up bricked, you'll be able to enjoy a wonderful variety of critically panned games.

Will Sony pull a Nintendo and announce their hit-games 5 years before their release?

1 minutes and 8 seconds to load your games system, social media device, and cable box. That's not a bad deal at all.
Xbone is more powerful and feature rich, we had to compromise somewhere.
