The editors liked

  • 4K Ultra HD playback
  • Slicker and slimmer console
  • 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

  • Great for players that only buy digital titles
  • Comes with three games

  • It's relatively small for a games console. No bulky external power brick. Beautiful white design. Improved texture on the controller
  • Signifikant reduktion av både storlek och vikt
  • Strömma i 4K och HDR
  • Spela med underbart HDR-förbättrat färgdjup

The editors didn't like

  • Only 1.6TB of 2TB HDD usable
  • 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
  • 4K HDR images lack subtlety
  • Lean sound
  • Can't pass-through 4K video
  • Incompatible with Dolby Atmos and DTS
  • X
  • Unintuitive menus
  • Price tag isn't justifiable
  • Not for those who prefer discs
  • Looks the same as the Xbox One S
  • Games are more expensive
  • No 4K Blu-ray or DVD support
  • No Kinect port
  • 4K
  • Ultra HD Blu-ray and HDR settings only work with newer TVs
  • And may require some trial and error. The updated controller feels cheaper than its predecessor. Project Scorpio
  • The more powerful Xbox One successor
  • Arrives in late 2017
  • No support for true 4K gaming
  • Technical specifications largely unchanged from Xbox One
  • No Kinect port (if that is
  • Indeed
  • A con)
  • Will be superseded by Project Scorpio console next year
  • Doesn't give you 4K gaming
  • Slightly slower in operation to its beefier One X sibling
  • Not cheap enough to justify dropping the disc drive
  • Xbox UI is still clunky
  • Xbox One S with drive is a similar price
  • Needs adapter for Kinect
  • Could fragment Xbox One audience
  • Gaming is not improved by much so few reasons to upgrade bar 4K video
  • Needs extra 4K app support from the likes of Amazon
  • No native Kinect port
  • 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
  • Behöver en adapter för Kinect
  • Spelande i 4K begränsas till uppskalning
  • PS4 still has the better exclusives
  • Controller not rechargeable as standard
  • Not as small as expected
  • Hardware still slower than PlayStation 4
  • Cortana is disappointing
  • Not native 4K in games
  • Noisy and slow in playback
  • Game controller not ideal remote
  • Only one HDMI output
  • No Dolby Vision support
  • No analogue audio
  • No display

  • Your favourite games in pin-sharp detail, The cheapest 4K Blu-ray player you can buy, Sleek new design, sans power brick
  • PS4 still has the better exclusives, Controller not rechargeable as standard
  • If the Xbox One S is meant to atone for the original One's botched launch, it's job done. This is a great 4K Blu-ray player, and it does a fab job of upscaling your favourite games into 4K.But it's not the only 4K games console out this year.The lingering...

  • In the end, whether or not you should get the Xbox One S depends on major factor: Whether you already have an Xbox One. While the 4K and HDR capabilities are a boon, the 4K boost doesn't apply to games, so it's a question of whether a nice, slim console i...

  • cofThe Xbox One S is a great device. However, if you already own an Xbox One, there is little reason to upgrade it unless you are craving for the 4K resolution your old box doesn't support.If you're considering the Xbox One already, then we definitely con...

  • Disco duro de 1TB, Tres juegos incluidos, Más conveniente, Streaming en 4K y HDR
  • El precio no está justificado, No es para aquellos que prefieran discos, Es igual que la Xbox One S
  • La Xbox One S All-Digital se ve y funciona como su predecesora, menos por la unidad de disco. Está más enfocada para aquellos que prefieran deshacerse de los discos físicos, ya que ofrece mucho espacio para descargas digitales, pero tiene dificultades par...

  • Tamaño muy reducido, Streaming en 4K y HDR, Juegos en HDR
  • Necesita un adaptador para Kinect, Juegos 4K limitados al escalado
  • Xbox One S es la cúspide de lo que Microsoft se propuso crear con la Xbox One original. A pesar de haberse lanzado hace más de tres años, la One S es todo lo que una videoconsola debería ser: elegante, potente y bien equipada. No está al nivel de Xbox One...
