Microsoft recently announced news about the introduction of a successor to the Xbox One, which they are calling the Xbox One S. Let\u2019s have a look at what makes the Xbox One S worth buying and how it upgrades from the Xbox One.<\/p>\n<h3>Aesthetics vs. Fundamentals<\/h3>\n<p>Fundamentally the Xbox One S is the same as that of the Xbox One. When it comes to having a look at the inside of the console, you can expect the same CPU, GPU and RAM configurations. The frequency of the GPU is increased a notch, but that hardly makes a difference when it comes to gaming.<\/p>\n<p>Aesthetics are where the Xbox One S makes things not just a little but a lot interesting. The form-factor of the console has been reduced by a surprising 40 percent. There is no need to worry about the huge power supply hanging around with the power cable, instead it is placed within the console.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of the glossy plastic finish, the Xbox One S now comes in a more premium designed matt finish. The white and black color combination gives it the star trooper look. Overall, the Xbox One S is better looking than the Xbox One is every way.<\/p>\n<h3>Controller and 4K!<\/h3>\n<p>Most of the gamers when comparing the Sony PlayStation with the Xbox complain about the Xbox\u2019s controller. Microsoft came up with a new controller that has a matt touch to it that makes it more grippy. Adding up to this the thumb sticks on the controller are now made up of a tougher material.<\/p>\n<p>The 4K doesn\u2019t help the Xbox One S with gaming, significantly. In fact, you will not be able to see any difference at all if your Television or Monitor does not support 4K. With a 4K display, the Xbox has the capability of upscaling a 1080p video or game to 4K that makes it sharper and crisp on the eye.<\/p>\n<p>Besides the Xbox\u2019s gaming capabilities, it can be used as a cheaper Blu Ray player. The console does a great fine job when it comes to handling 4K and HDR content, the only disappointment here is that the Xbox One S doesn\u2019t support Dolby Atmos Audio and it will take a hit while using Netflix.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>The Xbox One S is upgraded in every way one can think of when being compared to the Xbox One. The fact that it can play 4K so flawlessly alone is a good enough reason to buy one. When it comes to gaming, there may not be a huge upgrade but these days a gaming console is thought of as a multimedia device.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft has been lagging in the gaming arena with the Xbox One, especially after Sony took some serious steps to make the PlayStation come right on top of its competition.
