I have aso not tested the graphics but I do not expect it to be noticeably different than the Xbox.
I will report back soon with more thoughts and impressions.

Good review of someone who has both.
The PS4 does charge the controllers while in standby mode if you select that option in the settings.
Also, glad your Xboxs are working. As you expected, they have had their issues with launch hardware as well. There have been reports of disc drive errors, and update errors requiring the unit be sent back. This happens with any major launch though, quality control can only get so much and things happen. I think people have just waited for so long that when it does happen they get very upset and its plastered all over the Internet.
For me, I like the minimalist layout of the PS4. Personally, I prefer to focus on one thing and do not have the need to switch between tv and gaming or split screen them. I can change from video games to tv with the push of a button on the remote, so it hasn't really been an issue for me at least. I can also do a lot of surfing for shows and movies on my phone or tablet while watching a current channel. To me the ability to use a second screen to get more detailed information and surf around is more useful than the current Xbox1 media center functionality. So I prefer the PS4 for its core focus on games and its native 1080p vs upscaled 1080p. I just wish they'd released GT6 on both PS3 and PS4. I also think that the touchpad on the new PS4 controller could add a lot of new functionality once games start taking advantage of it.
Both are undoubtedly a step up from last gen and should make any owner very happy.
