PlayStation 4 1TB Console (CUH-2216A / CUH-2015B / CUH-2218B/ CUH-2216B/WH 2116 B) Review – Jet Black
Having spent several weeks extensively using the PlayStation 4 1TB Console (CUH-2216A / CUH-2015B / CUH-2218B/ CUH-2216B/WH 2116 B) – Jet Black, I’m ready to share my in-depth review. This console represents a mature stage in the PS4’s lifecycle, offering a solid gaming experience at a potentially more affordable price point than newer consoles. But does it still hold up? Let’s find out.
The PS4 boasts a range of features designed to enhance the gaming experience. The 1TB hard drive provides ample space for a sizeable game library, and the included DualShock 4 controller remains a comfortable and responsive peripheral. The inclusion of HDR support is a significant plus, enhancing visual fidelity for compatible games. Features like Share Play and remote play further enhance the social aspect of gaming. I found the built-in voice assistant helpful for quickly navigating the console’s menus. The noise-cancelling feature on the headset, while not perfect, was a noticeable improvement over previous iterations.

Performance is generally excellent. I played a variety of titles, ranging from graphically demanding AAA games to indie darlings, and experienced minimal issues. Load times were generally acceptable, though some older titles still suffered from longer loading screens. The system remained remarkably quiet even during extended gaming sessions. Online multiplayer functionality was smooth and lag-free for the most part. However, I did experience occasional minor glitches, nothing game-breaking but worth noting. Overall, the performance was consistent with what I’d expect from a system of its age.

The PlayStation 4 1TB Console (CUH-2216A / CUH-2015B / CUH-2218B/ CUH-2216B/WH 2116 B) offers a compelling gaming experience, especially at a potentially more budget-friendly price. While it lacks some of the bells and whistles of newer consoles, its extensive game library and generally solid performance make it a worthwhile investment for those seeking a reliable and entertaining gaming system. I would confidently recommend this console to those looking for a solid gaming experience without breaking the bank. However, If 4K resolution is a must have, you may want to consider other options.
