Indeed you are mistaken. HDR support was introduced in 4.0 update for all ps4 systems. And AFAIK there are no 4k tvs that don't have built-in upscalers. While the xboxones upscaler does have some benefits compared to the tv upscaler it's definitely not a huge improvement. Also games that natively run at a higher resolution on ps4 will still look better using the tv upscaler compared to a lower resolution upscaled by the xboxones. But again like I said the difference will be negligible. Basically you'll see a near identical quality in all cases between the ps4 and the xboxones. Edit: On 4k tvs I mean.

I see, of course you are talking about the tv set doing the upscaling for the ps4 (in place of the one built into the xone slim). I see your ppoint that in the bigger scheme of things it prob mames minimal diff.  I guess then it comes down to the brilliant marketing of MS by creating the perception of a stand out feature simply cos its built into the console..It succeeded with me and with prob heaps others.

As Ferrari pointed out, the only hardware found in Xbox that PlayStation doesn't have is a UHD player. That has literally no affect or provides no advantage for games. PS4, all of them, have HDR. They also have a power advantage, all of them, so at the very least you see higher native resolutions in AAA multiplats. 

 

The Ps4 pro however has over 3x the GPU power of the xb slim for only $100 more so it's all about which trade offs you want to make and what you intend to do with your console. If you prefer image quality for video games, Pro is far and away the only option. If you prefer image quality for movies, the xb slim will be your choice. I will say that microsofts flamboyant and loud marketing seems to be paying off for NA
