I absolutely love my new Xbox One S. From gaming to the streaming in 4K! If you have a 4K and want an UHD bluray, go get this console. It will have the added benefit of being a game console. I think its a steal.

I did a lot of research on 4K Tv's and I could not be happier with my purchase, the Xbox One S was the icing on the cake.

I am really liking this updated xbox. Sold my original xbox to a friend and upgraded to this one when it came out. Its much smaller and can stand on its side. I play on a desk infront of a monitor and the size of the previous xbox was a real pain to deal with. Now its out of the way. I cant really tell if there are many performance differences, it feels just about the same.

So is this better hardware than its predecessor yes but you also could pass until Scorpio comes out. Here's why, HDR is nice but after awhile you don't even notice the deference and 4K blurays don't look that much better then standard 1080p blurays. So at the end of the day this is a much better purchase in terms of what you get but don't expect magic.

I have the original too. The slim offers 4K video and streaming which is a plus. It looks gorgeous. The only console with a UHD
bluray player.

Xbox One S better than xbox one

What can i say about the Xbox One S, for starters the console is way nicer & doesn't look like a giant 1980's VCR. The power brick will not be missed same with the kinect. The actual buttons on the console are a nice addition & the redesigned controller feels slightly more solid & comfortable. The 4K player is another great addition, they should've put this sleek machine out first & never the original behemoth. I would prefer any day over the first model of the Xbox One. I would recommend it, unless you really aren't looking to get a slightly upgraded console. if you already have a Xbox One & don't really care for the 4K player that runs 300$ alone, don't spend the money wait for the Scorpio in 2017.

Worth the upgrade

I came from having an Xbox One Elite edition to the One S. Is it worth upgrading? Yes. Why?
1. 4K support and UHD Bluray player built in. It will even play 3D Blurays if your tv is equipped.
2. New controller with Bluetooth built in. Meaning you can use it with other devices, not just your Xbox.
3. Slim and simplistic design. I'm glad it has a USB port on the front this time. It also has the controller seek button on the front as well.
If you're looking at getting it, make the purchase and you won't regret it.

I'm not a console gamer to be honest with you except when it comes to fifa, all my life have been a PC gamer and I loved it. Got this as a deal with a TV and you know what, I actually like it. Started playing Holo and the controllers aren't that bad, will take time to get used to them but that's okay I guess. The device it self is fast and it looks amazing and fits right below the TV. Great performance and tons of games.The only down thing about it is the 500GB capacity but it's manageable by spending $60 and get a 1TB external hard drive and you're good to go.

I'd say even upgrading from the original Xbox One is worth it. It's smaller, more powerful, and designed better. It isn't a next gen console so there doesn't need to be drastic improvements but it could be more powerful. I'm upset the vertical stand wasn't included but not a big deal. The 2 Halo games included don't have much value if you already own them, considering most people with an Xbox One may already have both.
Pros: smaller, better design, NO POWER BRICK, reasonable price
Cons: unsure about dotted look, no vertical stand

The new Xbox one is a lot smaller and quieter. The design is better and is a great price as it essentially comes with 5 games with the entire master chief halo collection.

Hands down, I love Xbox One S. From the design to the controller. The inclusion of the 4K blu-ray drive and HDR seals the deal. Super quiet, smaller form factor, great games and Xbox Live.
I've been an Xbox fan since day one and I won't stop anytime soon. The games and console are the best in the business. I respect PS4 but Xbox One S is all I need.

As a Xbox 360 owner, I'd still recommend upgrading to a Xbox One S. It's compact, has noticeable speed increase on game menus such as halo's, the Xbox power button is a physical button and no more bulky power brick. I currently don't own a 4K TV but looking into purchasing one during Black Friday to take advantage of the new 4K streaming capabilities.

The size is just right. No power brick in the way. Loads fast and plays great up scaled games. The native 4K is great for movies and DVDs. This is a must buy for the gamer and movie lover. The one s is quite and does not produce much heat.

Graphics are amazing and the new smaller size is also nice. The frustrating thing is that all games must be installed which takes up a ton of memory. 500GB fills up very fast. I actually just had to uninstall a couple to install my new game. It can only hold about 10 games at a time which sucks because the 5 Halo games take up virtually half of your memory right off the bat.

The S is better than the original Xbox One!

I've owned a day one Xbox One since launch. Never really had a major problem with that console. So this purchase of the Xbox One S was was mainly because of the 4K capabilities. The console works fine, 4K is a visual improvement for sure! Even if you don't have a 4K TV currently, this console is the one to get. With the addition of Halo Master chief collection (Halo 1,2,3 & 4) and Halo 5 Guardians, you are essentually getting 5 games for free! The white color is a nice touch and the console itself is much smaller than the original Xbox one. Now I will add this, I prefer my PS4 over the Xbox One. But you can't go wrong with either console and this new Xbox One S is fantastic.

First off the small design with no power brick is amazing. It's so quiet you can't hear it running at all. It's in my TV stand with the door closed and there's no excess heat like before. Now to get onto the games. I noticed immediately a huge difference in the smoothness or frame rate of call of duty black ops three and about for other titles.The controller is lightweight more sleek the fact that I can use it with my PC is just a bonus. This was the console we expected from Microsoft at the beginning I'm just glad they could deliver it to us now. 4K Blu-ray player 4K video streaming this box has everything for the lowest price grab the 299 version it's perfect.

The one s is smaller and lighter. A push button start up so no more accidental on. And the best thing no more power brick. Console is quite and does not run hot. 4K is outstanding on this gaming console. A must buy.
