Microsoft Xbox One S All-Digital Edition

 

The Xbox One S All-Digital Edition is simply a One S game console without an optical drive for $50 less, but the trade-off isn't worth it.

Less expensive than the Xbox One S and just as capable for gaming. Can stream 4K HDR media.

Can't play Ultra HD Blu-rays, Blu-rays, DVDs, or disc-based games. Just as large as the regular Xbox One S.

Bottom Line: The Xbox One S All-Digital Edition is simply a One S game console without an optical drive for $50 less, but the trade-off isn't worth it.

Xbox One S Gears of War 4 mini-Review in blood red

 

This special limited edition version of the Xbox One S is no average re-coloring. The folks responsible for tricking this console out have taken extra steps to make certain the device was no simple skin-job. This device looks like it's been customized...

Microsoft Xbox One S review

 

The 4K console war has begun with the arrival of Microsoft's new Xbox One S. So is it any good? And will it beat the forthcoming PlayStation 4 Neo?

You favourite games in pin-sharp detail ; The cheapest 4K Blu-ray player you can buy ; Sleek new design, sans power brick

PS4 still has the better exclusives ; Controller not rechargeable as standard

The console the Xbox One should have been at launch. Still, this One S mighty fine in its own right.

The Xbox One S could be 4K Blu-ray's white knight. And it plays games, too.

 

The $300 Xbox One S will be the cheapest 4k Blu-ray player when it's released in August, making it a potent weapon in the disc format's battle against 4K streaming video.
