Does hdmi 2.1 do anything for ps4?
HDMI 2.1 lets the video cable transfer data at a much higher rate than the HDMI 2.0 of the Xbox One X, or the HDMI 1.4 of the original PS4 and Xbox One. Its maximum data transmission rate is 48.0 Gbit per second, or six gigabytes per second. That is more than twice the bandwidth of HDMI 2.0.
