The editors didn't like

  • Can't play Ultra HD Blu-rays
  • Blu-rays
  • DVDs
  • Or disc-based games

  • Conventional media remote control costs extra
  • Loads discs slower than dedicated UHD Blu-ray players

  • 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

  • Games aren't in true 4K
  • Only one frontal USB port
  • Requires an adapter for Kinect to work

  • 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
  • No reason to buy unless you own a 4K TV
  • Not a real 4K gaming console at all

  • 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...
