The wait has been long, but we finally have a version of the Xbox One that I can get behind. Though it’s been available globally for about a year, the Xbox One S was launched in India last month. It is an improvement over the original Xbox One in almost every way, and will be the main console pushed by Microsoft as its predecessor sails off into the sunset. At their core, the Xbox One S and the Xbox One are essentially the same console, but Microsoft has made a number of significant changes. The One S is much more compact and better looking, more so than the original ever was. It also adds support for 4K (not native) and HDR, breathing new life into your games and video content. This is also the only console that plays 4K Blu-Ray, making it one of the better options for people lookin...
The wait is over, folks! The Xbox One S was finally launched today in India to an overwhelming response from the crowd. The launch event was held in Microsoft’s cosy yet classy office in Gurgaon, where a horde of gamers had shown up to experience the new console first-hand. We had also been invited to witness the Xbox One S in action, and needless to say, it’s quite impressive. Without further ado, let’s get right to it. In terms of design and looks, the Xbox One S is simply stunning. The console is about 40% smaller than the original Xbox One, and looks twice as better. One of the biggest and the most welcome change is that it comes with a built-in power supply, so you can say goodbye to that hefty power brick. The chassis comes in a classy white finish with black highli...

Most of us can agree that Sony emerged a clear victor at the E3 2016 conference, thanks to their spectacular showcase and amazing titles. Microsoft also had quite a few tricks up their sleeves, but they fell short. BUT. And it’s a big ‘BUT’ (no pun intended). Announcing Project Scorpio along with Xbox One S may not seem like a great idea, BUT they laid all their cards on the table. For someone who does not yet own a console and wants to get into gaming right now, the Xbox One S is not that bad a bet. It provides you the power of Xbox One in a 40% smaller form factor, and it also comes with inbuilt power supply. While the Project Scorpio may turn out to be the most powerful console yet, One S bridges the gap between the past and the future. With 4K support for Blu-ray video, and HDR gaming,...
