What is the Xbox One S?

It's the smallest, and most beautiful, Xbox yet. The Xbox One S slimlines the original Xbox One into a chic new design and re-colours it in an all new ‘robot white’. The console is 40% smaller than the original Xbox One and waves goodbye to notoriously bulky ‘brick like’ power supply. The Xbox One S will allow you to use the console both vertically and horizontally with the addition of a new optional console stand – it’s up to you how you display, and play, your One S.

What's New on the Xbox One S?

The Xbox One S will be available with a 500GB or 1TB hard-drive. It also boasts 4K capabilities – Ultra HD. This means that Xbox One S will support 4K streaming from the likes of Netflix and Amazon Video, as well as supporting HD Blu-ray. The new improved video features make the Xbox One S the cheapest Ultra-HD disk player on the market.  Other changes include a front, easy-access, USB port.

The Xbox One S Wireless Controller

The Xbox One S also comes with an all-new controller, again in the ‘robot white’ shade. The controller will feature textured grips and includes Bluetooth in addition to proprietary wireless capability, this resulting in a dramatically improved wireless range. The new Bluetooth controller will also be compatible with PC and is included with the console, it’s also available to buy separately.
