Flame bait article.

Edge has been on a crusade against Xbox for some time now, but anyway.

Sony and Microsoft are each still working on the graphics drivers for each console, and Xbox One is lagging behind in this regard – Microsoft “has been late on their drivers and that has been hurting them,” said one source. Another described Xbox One’s graphics drivers less charitably as “horrible”.

We've known this for months and its the reason for the lower performace. Not hardware as the article implies with the title.

And don't forget this part

Xbox One does, however, boast superior performance to PS4 in other ways. “Let’s say you are using procedural generation or raytracing via parametric surfaces – that is, using a lot of memory writes and not much texturing or ALU - Xbox One will be likely be faster,” said one developer.
As the Xbox graphics drivers improve, their could be some situations where the Xbox performs better:leon:

so youre saying xbox is behind in development.. something xbots have constantly been denying :patrice::mjpls:

The software yes. It's been known for months and even admitted by Microsoft.

The first party devs get the updates first, which is why their games are further along, and we have not even seen any 3rd party's running on Xbox consoles yet

They said that it could damage perceptions of a cross platform title, not to mention Xbox One, if the PS4 version shipped with an obviously superior resolution and framerate; better to “castrate” the PS4 version and release near-identical games to avoid ruffling any feathers.
This claim was later countered by a contact at a different studio. “It would be totally fine for us to make one version prettier without any political difficulties but it usually doesn’t make financial sense,” they said, “unless it’s a very simple tweak.”
