Review on Game console Sony PlayStation 4 1000 GB HDD, Uncharted 4 Limited Edition by Wiktor Lisowicz ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is really good, I'm glad I bought it.

There are not so many exclusive games for the console, at least worthwhile ones. Personally, for two years, I really liked only Bloodborne, to a lesser extent Order 1886, Knack, Infamous Second Son, Drive Club, that's probably all. The internal hard drive is not that big, and when there is less than 100GB of free space on it, I noticed brakes, for example, when copying saves to the network or to a USB flash drive. So if you have money, it's better to take a model with 1TB. On the console, you can play with a keyboard and mouse, but in most games this will require a rather expensive adapter - CronusMax, TitanOne, XIM4, there are other options. The console has a web browser, you can also watch movies over the network and listen to music. It seems that you can play content from external USB drives. But we must keep in mind that all this is not very convenient and does not work with all formats, it is much better on a computer. In general, I will say this: it only makes sense to buy a console now if you have found some kind of exclusive on it, without which life is not a joy. Well, or if you are a very wealthy person, buying an additional device for the collection and then incurring constant expenses of thousands of dollars is a trifle for you. Otherwise, it is much better to take a gaming computer. The average gaming system unit on Core i3 + 8GB + GeForce 750 2GB will cost a maximum of 30 thousand (and on AMD it will be even cheaper), while there will be huge savings on games, not to mention much more functionality.

Pros
  • Excellent overall quality of the device, it has been working for about two years without any serious complaints. Very handy gamepad, which you can plug in headphones and a headset. Unlike the previous model, you don’t need to buy a special expensive charger for the gamepad, any smartphone charger will do.
Cons
  • The console is quite noisy - both the disk drive and the internal fans make noise during active operation. In general, there is noticeably more noise compared to, for example, the old PS3 Slim or a modern gaming PC. The gamepad runs out pretty quickly. Games are very expensive, playing online costs money.
