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...
HDR gaming, UHD Blu-ray drive, Some apps support 4K/HDR streaming, Excellent controller, Price
Full HD resolution in games (upscaled to 4K), Still relatively high power consumption for streaming, Not as powerful as PS4 Pro, Still lacks 4K/HDR in several apps
Like Sony, Microsoft has released a mid-cycle console refresh. Unlike Sony, Microsoft has not made the GPU faster in any significant way. Still, you have to consider what Xbox One S is. It is not designed to be a new high-end game console because that con...

Reasonably sized - far smaller than Xbox One, Controller further perfected over Xbox One, Plays all Xbox One games, 4K video output, Ultra HD gaming upscaling
True 4K gaming isn't quite here yet, Kinect needs adapter to connect, Not a replacement for Xbox One (that'll come next year)

Doens't support high-definition audio codecs such as Dolby TrueHD, Conventional media remote control costs extra, Loads discs slower than dedicated UHD Blu-ray players
This is a great Ultra HD Blu-ray player for most people, but home theater aficionados should steer clear. The game console won't stream high-def audio codecs such as Dolby TrueHD or Dolby Atmos today...

Fantastic design, New controller is great, Stylish heat vent, Good selection of games, Backwards compatibility
Insecure stand, Slow OS
Regardless of some areas in need of improvement, the Xbox One S is still a fantastic device. You do get the quality you'd expect for the price in almost everything. The hardware looks fantastic and seems almost like something you would expect to see in an...

Abstract: As a consumer, I've never cared much about video game console redesigns. I had the boxy PlayStation 2 until I no longer had any use for a PlayStation 2. I still have an OG PlayStation 3 sitting in my entertainment center, complete with the backwards compa...
