Needs adapter for Kinect, Could fragment Xbox One audience
The Xbox One S seems like the perfect system for first-time buyers. But being sleeker, cheaper and more powerful than its predecessor, the One S could also rub early adopters (who shelled out for Kinect) the wrong way...
Supports High Dynamic Range, Xbox Game Pass is an awesome deal, Price point
Upscales to 4K, not natively, User interface is a nightmare,
The Microsoft Xbox One S is an interesting beast: it's a gaming console with an emphasis on entertainment while keeping its price sweet and simple. We think it's perfect for newcomers to experience Xbox games without dropping a lot of cash. And if you hav...
Can play games, Built-in 4K Blu-Ray Player, 1TB storage
Games aren't in true 4K, Only one frontal USB port, Requires an adapter for Kinect to work,
The Xbox One S is a great combination of gaming console and blu-ray player. It's getting replaced with a new console by the end of the year and might get even cheaper. Unlike the One X, this console doesn't play games in true 4K. That said, it's much chea...

The Xbox One S All-Digital Edition is simply a One S game console without an optical drive for $50 less, but the trade-off isn't worth it...
Abstract: So you plopped down a pile of cash to buy a 4K TV, maybe even one that delivers high dynamic range. Awesome. Once you've wowed your friends and family with those lush demo files the manufacturer provided, you're going to want to splash some 4K movies acro...
Abstract: For decades, Nintendo's family-friendly video game consoles – and the worlds created within their unique games – have been beloved to adults and children alike. The New Nintendo 3DS XL aims to continue pleasing with upgraded hardware, improved 3D technolo...
Nearly flawless as an Ultra HD Blu-ray player (in terms of video quality, that is), Can stream 4K video from the internet, HDMI input for connecting and controlling a set-top box
Conventional media remote control costs extra, Loads discs slower than dedicated UHD Blu-ray players
This is a great Ultra HD Blu-ray player, especially for gamers...
What Microsoft needed to do with the Xbox One S is pretty itself up for newcomers that might be tempted by the PS4 Slim or the PS4 Pro. It needed to polish the rough edges of Xbox One's hardware flaws and provide some new technology for the latest display...
