If you're looking for a console that can provide the best possible gaming experience on a console at the moment, the PlayStation 4 Pro with its enhanced graphics, frame-rate and resolution is a good choice - although it doesn't feature a 4K Blu-Ray player...
Price, Controller works well, Rich colours, Decent detail with 4K content,
4K HDR images lack subtlety, Lean sound, Can't pass-through 4K video, incompatible with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, Unintuitive menus,
So how does the Xbox One S stack up as a sequel? Well, it feels a little like we've been here before. The cast might have improved but there are still a few gaping holes in the script.The Xbox One S plays the role of games console perfectly well, but does...
That means there's no easy answer as to whether you should definitely buy an Xbox One S right now. The console itself is gorgeous and its 4K Blu-ray drive makes it a tempting proposition for those thinking about making the jump to Ultra HD Blu-ray, but ul...
The Xbox One S is a great console. In many ways, it's the console the Xbox One should have been the first time round. It's gamer-focused, compact and stylish, and doesn't force you to buy Kinect. If you just want an Xbox One, this is the one to buy; at £2...

Abstract: Microsoft's revamped Xbox One occupies a curious space in the current gaming generation. It's not because it's a sleeker take on the original bulky hardware – slimline consoles are nothing new, after all. Sega tweaked both the Master System and the Mega D...
Smaller than Xbox One, 4K game upscaling, It's a cheap UHD Blu-ray player, HDR compatible, Improved, grippy controller

Vastly improved design; HDR support and some graphics performance increases; excellent 4K video functionality at a very competitive price
No support for true 4K gaming; technical specifications largely unchanged from Xbox One; no Kinect port (if that is, indeed, a con); will be superseded by Project Scorpio console next year
The Xbox One S is a major improvement over its predecessor in terms of style and footprint, and if you've bought – or about to buy – a 4K TV, it's definitely worth purchasing rather than the standard Xbox One, or indeed a dedicated 4K Blu-ray player. The...

Everyone loves a 'slim' hardware revision - and generally speaking, it's second-gen console revisions that tends to be the most successful (third-gen models can sometimes take the cost-cutting too far). It's a chance to listen to consumer feedback, reduce...

Abstract: There were very few complaints when the original Xbox One was announced, despite it failing to handle 4K. In 2013 nobody really cared about HD's successor. Not unless they'd spent thousands on one of the few 4K TV sets available at the time. Yes, the best...
