I really like the XBox design team, too had the console's target is not for me as they are going for more bros still, and I like more varied emotional experiences.

They just showed of a bevy of games in all categories. What do you mean by this?

 

[Dr. Black Jack]

They really need to include an Elite controller in there.

 

[Apparition]

I think the S looks better, the two-tone color scheme and the grill on the top are really striking. The X doesn't look bad by any means but it's basically a more traditional version of the S.

I'd love to have it in white again, kind of bummed out if it's only available in black.



How in the hell is it so small? If this is as quiet as the S it's pathetic how much better engineered this than the Pro. The price is easier to justify when the competition looks ridiculous and sounds like a hair dryer.

This spec sheet show there is a white model (or at least a render of it). It is not that small. It is bigger on two dimensions than the S but slimmer.

 

[RoKKeR]

MS hardware is fucking on fire right now, across the board.

 

[Garrett 2U]

That console is gorgeous.

Yes.. that needs to be changed

Well I mean it is 4K HDR on Xbox One S and Xbox One X.

 

[leng jai]

Impressively small, the S looks better though aside from the ugly circular vent.

 

[Xenoflare]

I mentioned this earlier today but I remember Spencer talking about FFXV being one of the 30 old titles that are getting patched for One X, I'll be waiting for DF to get on that once the patch hits

 

[brickarts295]

So I guess no vertical stand?

The 4K HDR on the box art might be confusing since it doesn't specify the models it is possible on.

I guess they are going to slap a "Plays better on One X" in the back :/

 

[AirPowerFTW]

Cringe.

Aren't three of the those last four bullets the same thing?

 

[Amerzel]

Console is gorgeous, I'll be buying one, wish it was cheaper but maybe they'll be a nice trade in deal.

 

[Red Devil]

🤔

Dumb comparison, all Xbones will play the games, unlike with the Wii and Wii U.

 

[RdN]

The hardware looks great.

 

[SolarMystic]

For $499, it should really come with a 2tb HDD.

 

[immortald3ath]

That thing looks sexy.

 

[L4DANathan]

I remember when I first saw the name and compared the abbreviations:

Xbox One = Xbone
Xbox One X = Xbox

I thought that was clever.

 

[Mufc1427]

Really nice looking hardware. I'm probably gonna replace my OG Xbox One with this, once the price drops.

 

[LKSmash]

So sleek. Excited to get one this fall.

 

[RoKKeR]

Box art stuff is weird. Figured they would throw "enhanced for One X" or whatever on there like they did for the trailers.

 

[JaffeLion]

🤔

? Xbox one X is NOT a new console generation.. Wii U was.. but people thought that its not a new console generation. and thats exactly the point. Microsoft did the right thing.

 

[Dr. Black Jack]

I remember when I first saw the name and compared the abbreviations:

Xbox One = Xbone
Xbox One X = Xbox

I thought that was clever.

Xbox Wunks
Xbonks

 

[ClayKavalier]

This spec sheet show there is a white model (or at least a render of it). It is not that small. It is bigger on two dimensions than the S but slimmer.

The official images are pretty misleading then, they make the X look quite a bit smaller.

I remember when I first saw the name and compared the abbreviations:

Xbox One = Xbone
Xbox One X = Xbox

I thought that was clever.

How is it any different than Xbox One S? People who like calling it Xbone will still refer to the platform as that.

 

[malfcn]

Looking great. Now I need a tv, upgrade and time.

 

[Sinfamy]

Spoiler

X BOX ONE X BOX ONE X BOX ONE X

 

[CosmicGroinPull]

XOXOXOXO

 

[Clancy]

This spec sheet show there is a white model (or at least a render of it). It is not that small. It is bigger on two dimensions than the S but slimmer.

The images are color inverted for whatever reason. The S and OG XBO should be white and black respectively.

 

[wesleyshark]

Sexy

Gorgeous console.

Goddamn what a fucking beautiful console.

Took all the words out of my mouth

 

[Khaos Kontrol]

Beautiful looking console. And very impressive how small it is with all that power.

 

[frogger]

what does the HDMI in do?

 

[Ivan]

looks really nice.

And what's the thing with black crush everybody's talking about? Is it the same problem from early x360 days?

 

[almostjuliuscaesar]

still can't believe it's smaller than the One S

 

[malfcn]

what does the HDMI in do?

What does Xbox One do?

 

[fersnake]

i think that 1Tb is really low, for a 4k gaming system. that's my only "con" other than that the specs well... the cpu but whatever it looks really nice and my god so small.

 

[boiled goose]

Very elegant. Unlike the silly name

 

[Head.spawn]

That Xbox One S to Xbox One X comparison chart reads like a joke edit, lol.

...how is the XB1X SMALLER than the XB1S?

what does the HDMI in do?

HDMI passthrough so you can use one input for cable TV (or ANY device with an HDMI out) and your Xbox One.

1) You can use just one TV Input.
2) You can get notifications/invites on screen while watching if you want.
3) Allows you quickly swap between the two really fast.
4) Xbox One also has a Guide type interface to interact with your TV, change channels, volume etc etc that works in conjunction with this.

 

[Khaos Kontrol]

what does the HDMI in do?

Connect your cable box in to use the TV features of Xbox One.

 

[Gamezone]

So if I buy the physical version of that Forza game. Will I get 4K right from the disc?

 

[Deaf Spacker]

That looks great, pretty much like an Xbox One S.

 

[Steelyuhas]

what does the HDMI in do?

Plug what you want into the Xbox to view. Commonly input from cable box to watch TV, but you can plug any HDMI in there that will output video.

 

[Bsigg12]

Looks god damn incredible in person. Major Nelson had one at the FanFest and brought it on stage.

 

[Aeqvitas]

fantastic looking console, and it's damn impressive it is smaller than the S while packing a metric ton more power. Hoping it is just as quiet, I've gotten used to not being able to hear my console ever.

 

[Luigiv]

...how is the XB1X SMALLER than the XB1S?

X: 30cm x 24cm x 6cm = 4320cc
S: 29.5cm x 23cm x 6.5cm = 4410.25cc

Checks out by my maths. Of course this just an approximate. I'd need more detailed dimensions for a more accurate appraisal.

 

[Bubba_Sparks]

I'm interested to see how the whole 4K thing pans out. I built a new PC with a GTX 1080, so I can do 4K though higher framerate at 1440p is what I prefer.

I wouldn't mind having a box like this for my TV. I already have the PS4 Slim, but this would be a nice addition.

 

[watershed]

I'm not a fan of these minimal design consoles. Sleek is cool but having no distinctive features isn't. I'm impressed by the size though.

 

[flattie]

Excellent work by MS on this one. Say what you want about the games lineup or the conference, but they have made another drop dead gorgeous bit of hardware here.

 

[makingmusic476]

The shape reminds me so much of a PS2. Much sleeker, though.

 

[gate stormer]

I must say their current models do look better than the PS4. This coming from someone that owns neither console at the moment.

 

[Citizen_Insane]

Does it come with an elite controller? Hell, they should have just called it the Xbox One Elite lol

The price for this thing is way too high for me, but the One S is looking mighty tempting. That plus an elite controller would still leave me with a lot of cash for games.

 

[DonMigs85]

Y'know, it's kinda shaped like a PS2

 

[ASaiyan]

How is it so small. And it's liquid-cooled? Gotta give props to the engineers on this one.

Spoiler

Shame the marketing guys messed up on the price.

 

[Benjamin1981]

Looks good but the position of the disc drive is stupid.
