Microsoft Xbox One Slim 1TB
"Sleeker. Slimmer. Sharper." That's the promise behind the Xbox One S, and this streamlined device certainly delivers a heavyweight entertainment experience that matches the hype.
Size doesn't count
The Xbox One Slim is living proof that you don't need a monster console to have huge fun. The console is 40% smaller than traditional Xbox consoles but lets you do everything you want to do, and play every game you want to play. With its internal power supply and 1TB of internal storage, the Xbox One S is one of the most advanced Xbox models ever released.
Super clear, super real
4K Ultra HD offers four times the resolution of standard HD. Given that standard HD is pretty cool, you would have to think that 4K Ultra HD is mind-blowing. It is! It delivers the clearest, most realistic video possible. You can stream 4K content on Netflix, or check out an Ultra HD Blu-ray movie in stunning visual fidelity with High Dynamic Range.
The lowdown on High Dynamic Range
To experience richer, more vibrant colours in your favourite games, you really need High Dynamic Range. The higher contrast ratio between lights and darks means a stunning layer of visual depth is added to your games, making the experience truly dramatic and exciting.
You're in total control
The all new Xbox Wireless Controller looks as cool as it performs. The sleek, streamlined design, textured grip, and Bluetooth for gaming on Windows 10 devices, gives you greater control than ever before. You'll enjoy custom button mapping and improved wireless range, and be able to plug in any compatible headset with the 3.5mm stereo headset jack. This controller is not just new - it's a major leap ahead!

So, Microsoft's Xbox One has finally landed in South Africa (well, officially tomorrow anyway) after being missing from our shores for almost a year since its international release.
U nlike the Xbox One launch , the One S decoupled the Kinect requirement, reduced the size, switched to the now premium pearl white look, and added both 4K and HDR capabilities to both games and Blu-ray. All of this and Microsoft also reduced the launched price when compared to the original.

Microsoft Xbox One Review: A Promising Start
Microsoft's aspirations to take over the living room didn't appear out of thin air. The Xbox 360 - which launched as a dedicated game console back in 2005 - has morphed considerably over its eight year lifespan.- Kinect is a powerful UI Tool
- Multi-tasking is fast and easy
- Games showcase strong performance and increased graphical fidelity
- Lack of App Channel content
- $100 more than a PS4
- Kinect as a game instrument remains unproven
- Xbox Live is essential for most apps and functions
Hardware Review - 'Xbox One'
Xbox One is Microsoft's all-in-one gaming and entertainment system that puts you at the center of all your games, TV, movies, music, sports and Skype.
An overall impressive machine with lots of potential.
When the Xbox One was first announced, there seemed to be an overwhelming negative response. The announcement seemed to focus entirely on the One's ability to be a media player and incorporate live tv functionality, and didn't spend much time talking about games.- Voice feedback, when working, has a truly futuristic feel
- Good game selection
- Snap applications
- Well designed controller
- Xbox Live
- Kinect
- Voice feedback sometimes requires multiple attempts
- No DLNA full support
- No 3d blu ray playback
- Gesture controls
