That's not what my ps4 does. I have an orange light in stanby, not white.

That explain everything... you guys are not using the StandBy feature.

When the system is in standby mode, the screen is turned off. You can set the system to perform actions such as download files, or charge the controller from a USB port.
The following methods are available for entering standby mode. When the system enters standby mode, the screen turns off, the power indicator blinks in white, and then the power indicator lights up in orange.
Select (Power) from the function screen, and then select [Enter Standby Mode].
Press and hold the PS button for at least 1 second, and then select [Enter Standby Mode] on the screen that is displayed.
Touch the power button for at least 1 second (until the system beeps).
If there are no checkmarks set in the settings under (Settings) > [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Standby Mode], the system turns off completely.

To exit standby mode, use a method from "Turning on the power".

To adjust functions available in standby mode, select (Settings) > [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Standby Mode].

You need to set up what the Standby mode will do too

He said his power indicator light turns orange in standby mode, which is what you've highlighted. There is nothing to setup, you simply select "Enter Standby Mode".



Nothing too serious, but yet another plus on the looong list of ps4 positives.

Becasue that part.

"If there are no checkmarks set in the settings under (Settings) > [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Standby Mode], the system turns off completely. "

If you not configured the Standby mode then it will turns off completely... you need to check what features will be on in the Standby Mode to it works.

He hits the PS4 button 5 seconds before hitting the Xbox One button. I also don't have to walk to my controller and pick it up to wake my Xbox One. I say Xbox On from anywhere in the house and it is on and ready to go before I sit on the couch. Add in the time it takes to walk to your DS4 and pick it up and the Xbox One demolishes the PS4 wake time. I also can switch between games and apps in less than 1 second by saying Xbox Go To (insert game title).

That's fine.  I'm okay with not paying $100 extra to save two seconds, at most, each time I'd like to turn my PS4 on from standby.  The one time you don't turn the Xbox on until you're  in close proximity to using it removes any of that time you saved by turning it on from the other end of the house.

I didn't buy an Xbox simply for Kinect so I didn't pay $100 just to save time. I bought an Xbox One for Titanfall, Quantum Break, Halo, etc. I also bought for XBL which provides dedicated servers for every game. I haven't heard Sony matching that. ALso my friends  bought Xbox One so add that to the factors. I will purchase a PS4 when the exclusive catalog builds up. It will be my single player machine.

He needs setup the Standby mode.

"If there are no checkmarks set in the settings under (Settings) > [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Standby Mode], the system turns off completely."

If not it will just turn off.



Holy hell. I had read/seen reviews that mentioned this but I didn't know the exact time comparisons!

I don't know what is happening or how to help you... maybe it is some weird bug.
