Which console would survive a 15 ft drop, Xbox One or PS4?

4.6
The age old question of which is better, PS4 or Xbox One. This time, the tests have nothing to do with the internal components.

As part of Wire’s Battle Damage, the team attempts to drop both the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One from varying heights to see which one is the sturdiest, and the loser gets the chainsaw treatment.

At first they drop both consoles from a 5 ft height, then they drop them from 15 ft. I won’t spoil the end result here, so give it a watch.

Forget the power disparity between the two consoles, this is what you should be fighting over.

TREND They should have tried to run a game on the XBONE just to see if it was fully functional.


Depending if it was already installed it might have worked.

OT: i am actually shocked that Xbox did as well as it did.

Really, drop tests on consoles now? Who is going to be carrying their console around at shoulder height day to day? It's not a phone.

It's not surprise the ponystation 4 couldn't take it, we know who the man is that should be obvious since day 1

Xbox one are made for Men!

Eyebrow I'm glad to know Xbox One is more durable because I'm getting one at Christmas.


If you're dumb enough to allow your console to be dropped then you shouldn't have one anyway.

temporaryjohnny Just saying the ps4 landed flat on its side where the xbox one didn't it hit its edges so it didn't do at much harm. But hey I still enjoy the ps4 thats my opinion. You can talk all the reasons how xbox one is better but I'm not switching to the xbox one. Besides I wannt one for some exclusives.


THAT WOULD HAVE MADE IT WORST FOR THE XBOX. aS YOU CAN TELL THE PS4 FAN DROPPED THEM FROM THE 15 FT HIGHT AND HE TRIED TO MAKE MORE DAMAGE ON THE XBOX ONE BY DROPING IT ON ITS CORNER

EDIT:forgot my caps was on
