I mean you expect systems  that are catering to the same audience to be close in power since they basically came out at the same time. On top of the gpu, you also  also had 8GB lump of fast GDDR5 memory compared to xbox slow ram. Which  gamers were going crazy for online. i would say that they differently shot themselves in the foot, and they sacrificed the specs for kinect which was DOA on xboxone.  

Game output had a far bigger impact than specs. What helped the PS3, for example, were the games, despite the system being notoriously difficult to work with.

A console is only as good as its software. 

The XBO was really, really far behind in game quality on exclusives compared to the PS4.

But they actually climbed back up with their services instead of games, people had WAY better expectations for the Xbox Series than they had for the Xbox One even when the games were still not there.

PS3 did climb back up mostly on great games tho, indeed, which was proven during the PS4 gen, first party titles sales jumped exponentially because of how good those games were.
