Xbox One is massive compared to the PS4
In the image above, you can see the PS4 sitting on-top of the Xbox One, courtesy of PCgamers.de. Even when placed next to the Xbox 360, the One is still quite large.
But does size really matter? To most gamers, probably not. Seeing that the Xbox One is a device that is designed to stay inside your AV cabinet, being portable is not an important attribute for the console.
Also, don’t forget that the PS4 has its power-supply built in, while the Xbox One has an external power unit.
There are likely loads of reasons why the console is so large, one likely being the need to keep all the components cool. Back when the Xbox 360 launched, it was plagued by defective units and seeing the size of the Xbox One, Microsoft likely spared no expense to keep the console from over-heating.

Looks like I will have a extra room when I install this bad boy.... I guess the extra 100 wasn't for Kinect 2 its for the sheer amount of materials ;-)

Why can't people just get their console of choice and not have to argue about it? Plus who cares how big it is it's not like we have limited space.

First of I'm going to start by saying holy sh*t that comment train below me...
Secondly I have been on Xbox since I started Online Gaming so I don't really care if it's a bit bigger, it's called an X(Box) for a reason, it's box shaped and I actually really like the design. I also quite like the PS4 design but I just prefer Xbox for all aspects of the Online experience. Go ahead and call me an "Xbox Fanboy" all you like I'm just giving my opinion.

I can see the power-supply being built in the PS4 causing problems.
Sony is starting to have PS4 problems ALREADY.
