It's hard to find anything wrong with the Xbox One S. By all accounts, it's a slimmer, sleeker and sexier console than what we see on store shelves today. Given all the advancements, it's hard to fathom how Microsoft plans on selling it for the same price...
In short, the engineering team at Microsoft deserves a standing ovation. Condensing everything inside the original Xbox One – as well as the massive power brick – into a framework 40% of the size is a feat of engineering, And while not every gamer will be
While there's never a great time to unveil a smaller, more powerful system to someone who's just purchased one of the now second-tier original consoles, now seems like a particularly rough time, Ditching the Kinect port entirely might be the final indicat
But all that taken into account, it's hard to find anything tangible to dislike about the Xbox One S in its current form. By all accounts, it's a slimmer, sleeker and sexier console than the Xbox console we've had in our cabinets for the past two and a ha...
For most people the Xbox One S will prove a better purchase than the Scorpio. It's cheaper, it runs the same games, and you can grab one right now - or wait for the price to potentially drop even further once the Scorpio is out. Still, if your the type to...
It's relatively small for a games console. No bulky external power brick. Beautiful white design. Improved texture on the controller
The vertical stand is a £15 add-on. Though quite than its predecessor, it's still not 100% silent. No built in voice control support. HDR gaming isn't widely supported yet
For being the best version of the Xbox ever, the Xbox One S's price is pretty damn astounding. It's only £249 for the 500GB version–though you can often find it for up to £40 cheaper via various bundle and online deals–and only £299 for the 1TB edition. Y...
I can't really score the Xbox One S because of the short time I had with it, but from initial impressions it will definitely support your 4K (HDR) enabled screen a lot better than your standard Xbox One would. Especially if you are into your movie content...
If you're looking for a console that can provide the best possible gaming experience on a console at the moment, the PlayStation 4 Pro with its enhanced graphics, frame-rate and resolution is a good choice - although it doesn't feature a 4K Blu-Ray player...
Price, Controller works well, Rich colours, Decent detail with 4K content,
4K HDR images lack subtlety, Lean sound, Can't pass-through 4K video, incompatible with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, Unintuitive menus,
So how does the Xbox One S stack up as a sequel? Well, it feels a little like we've been here before. The cast might have improved but there are still a few gaping holes in the script.The Xbox One S plays the role of games console perfectly well, but does...
That means there's no easy answer as to whether you should definitely buy an Xbox One S right now. The console itself is gorgeous and its 4K Blu-ray drive makes it a tempting proposition for those thinking about making the jump to Ultra HD Blu-ray, but ul...
The Xbox One S is a great console. In many ways, it's the console the Xbox One should have been the first time round. It's gamer-focused, compact and stylish, and doesn't force you to buy Kinect. If you just want an Xbox One, this is the one to buy; at £2...
