The Xbox worked the first time I used it. Now every time I press the power button, it will turn on for a few seconds, then automatically shuts down.

If your TV is compatible with the 4K system, it will automatically switch over. The man is a PlayStation guy so the Xbox controllers are a challenge (completely different feel). He wanted the Forza game but they don't have it for the PS4 (the main reason he bought the system).

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.

As an entry-level console, the Xbox One S comes jam packed with great features and offers a smooth user experience. It is well worth considering if you are looking for something to spin Ultra HD Blu-rays and haven't taken the plunge yet.

Thanks to new software, more compact hardware and an excellent pack-in controller, the Xbox One S feels like a worthy successor to the older Xbox 360. If you already have an Xbox One, however, there's little reason to upgrade unless you're also planning on buying a 4K TV (or already own one).

Microsoft has redesigned the Xbox One into a slimmer, sleeker, whiter package. The Xbox One S is the same game system as the original Xbox One at heart, but the $399.99 console adds Ultra HD Blu-ray disc support, pumps up the hard drive to a full 2TB (bundles with 500GB and 1TB drives are available...

Ultra HD Blu-ray playback; Smaller footprint; Increased storage options; Redesigned gamepad features a headset jack

4K video streaming not yet available; Games aren't upconverted to 4K; No Kinect
