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
The Xbox One S is a slick looking game console that's 40 percent smaller than the original and ditches the infamously gigantic power brick. It can display 4K video from streaming services and Ultra HD Blu-rays
And supports HDR contrast on video and games
Massive 2 TB Launch Edition should store most of your games

The editors didn't like
Can't play Ultra HD Blu-rays
Blu-rays
DVDs
Or disc-based games
Just as large as the regular Xbox One S
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
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
Without a 4K TV
One S advantages go away
Attaching the stand feels permanent
Even if it isn't
Next-gen Project Scorpio is little more than a year away
Lacking in power
Weakest exclusive lineup
Can't play games in 4K
No SSD option
Might be better to wait for Project Scorpio
Insecure stand
Slow OS
True 4K gaming isn't quite here yet
Kinect needs adapter to connect
Not a replacement for Xbox One (that'll come next year)
Games aren't in true 4K
Only one frontal USB port
Requires an adapter for Kinect to work
Upscales to 4K
Not natively
User interface is a nightmare
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
4K streaming apps and 4K Blu-ray playback don't work out of the box
HDR video for gaming won't be available until this fall

hübsches, platzsparendes Design, kein externes Netzteil mehr, Tasten statt Touchflächen, 4K-Blu-Ray-Laufwerk und 4K-Streaming, geringfügig stärkere Leistung als das alte Modell, Konsole auch stehend nutzbar
Weiß ist nicht jedermanns Sache, nur 1,6 der 2 TB verfügbar
Erfreulicherweise hat die Überarbeitung neben 4K-Streaming und 4K-Blu-Ray-Laufwerk auch noch einen kleinen Leistungsschub mit sich gebracht, der sich nicht bei allen, aber zumindest einigen Spielen spürbar bemerkbar macht. Ärgerlich ist hingegen, dass nur...

Design, Blu-ray-Laufwerk
Lautstärke bei UHD-Blu-rays
Die Xbox One S hält, was sie verspricht und beschert Spielern ein gelungenes Upgrade. Besitzer des Vormodells müssen aber nicht umsteigen, ausser man sucht derzeit nach einem günstigen UHD-Blu-ray-Player. Echte Cineasten oder Audiophile sollten sich aber...

Als je voor het winkelschap met gamecontrollers staat, heb je ruim de keuze. Lang niet elke gamepad presteert echter even goed. Vooral in het budgetsegment komen we genoeg controllers tegen die de basis van een gamepad – het accuraat registreren en doorge...
