PlayBox 4One Gaming Laptop Prototype Revealed By PlayStation 4 And Xbox One Modder Eddie Zarick On YouTube [WATCH VIDEO]
Eddie Zarick, a modder, or modifier of the PlayStation 4, or "PS4" and Xbox One consoles, revealed the PlayBox 4One gaming laptop prototype on his official YouTube channel. The PlayBox 4One gaming laptop combines the features of the "PS4" and the Xbox One gaming consoles. Zarick claims that he made the prototype because it was requested by one of his clients. He posted a YouTube video of the PlayBox 4One gaming laptop prototype on Tuesday, Jan. 13, 2015. Read on to learn more about it.
According to Zarick's blog Edsjunk, the PlayBox 4One is a laptop prototype unit with a 22″ Vizio screen. It has custom graphics, Ethernet ports for both units, a Smart HDMI switcher inside and two wireless black controllers. It is housed in a durable plastic casing. Zarick's gaming laptop prototype is composed of an Xbox One on one side and a PlayStation 4 on the other. This hybrid laptop offers gamers the best of both worlds by being able to play video games that are geared for either of the two consoles.
Zarick said that the PlayBox 4One went through a lot of reconfiguring and compromises in order to make it all fit and work properly. He even had problems with extending the USB ports on the Xbox and making the "PS4" capacitive Power button work consistently.
"This was a prototype unit I made for a customer and is not for sale. Additional units may be built in the future, but due to the high cost and complexity of the process, it will be substantially more than my normal XBOOKs or PLAYBOOKs," Zarick wrote on Edsjunk.
Aside from the PlayBox 4One gaming laptop prototype unit, Zarick also made other modified gaming consoles such as the Xbook One laptop (modified Microsoft Xbox One), the Xbook Duo (modified Xbox 360 and Xbox One combination laptop) and the PlayBook 4 (modified Sony "PS4"). The Xbook Duo, like the PlayBox 4One, is not for sale. As for the the PlayBook 4, its price ranges from $1,195 to $1,495, depending on its components. On the other hand, the Xbook One costs from $1,195 to $1595, also depending on the items included.
