Xbox One S

- 4K game upscaling
- It's a cheap UHD Blu-ray player
- HDR compatible

M icrosoft's revamped Xbox One occupies a curious space in the current gaming generation. It's not because it's a sleeker take on the original bulky hardware – slimline consoles are nothing new, after all.
Xbox One S 2TB Console (4K HDR with UHD Blu-ray)
The Xbox One S is a sexy, slick game console and Ultra HD Blu-ray player. The compact, quiet, and capable hardware makes for a natural companion for 4K HDR TVs beyond the media players already on the market.
Xbox One S review: Great console, bad timing
There's no way to talk about the Xbox One S without talking about the console it's replacing, the Xbox One. So I will just start by saying the really obvious thing: the Xbox One S is what the original Xbox One should have been.- Looks great

- 4K and HDR support
- No SSD option

- Slicker and slimmer console
- Only 1.6TB of 2TB HDD usable
Xbox One S review: The right console at the wrong time
The ultimate question to ask about the Xbox One S is not whether it can do the job - it can - it's whether or not it's worth buying. And that depends on what camp you fall into. If you're a serious gamer that already has an Xbox (or a PS4 for that matter) then there's really no point.

Xbox One S Gears of War 4 Limited Edition Review
While the Xbox One S is an amazing console, it just doesn't have a place, as it's such an incremental improvement. You should probably wait for Scorpio to get bigger changes.

- 4K Netflix and Amazon Video playback
- 1080p HDR gaming
- Great wireless controller
- No power brick
- Doesn't give you 4K gaming
- Slightly slower in operation to its beefier One X sibling
