Note that unlike the 2TB Xbox One S, the standard Xbox One X does not come with a stand. There’s plenty of ventilation on both ends and the rear of the console, and while the X gets warm to the touch it never gets hot. Even after hours of playing, the Xbox One X is almost whisper-silent when placed on the other side of the room-none of that jet-engine fan noise I associate with the original Xbox One. It’s hard for me to do a 100-percent fair comparison with the original Xbox One at this point because mine is going on four years old, but I guarantee it was never this quiet. The X has an unadorned 5-foot power cord.ĭespite being shrunk down, it’s also quieter. Say goodbye to that launch Xbox One and its enormous power brick. Even better: Like the S, the Xbox One X packs the power supply inside the case.

Pretty incredible, considering the X’s more powerful hardware. Measuring 11.8 x 9.4 x 2.4 inches, the Xbox One X is drastically smaller than the launch Xbox One (13.1 x 10.8 x 3.1 inches) and only a hair larger than the slimmer S model (11.5 x 9 x 2.5 inches). IDG / Hayden DingmanĬomparing 2013’s Xbox One to the Xbox One X. I wish Microsoft had opted to reuse (or save) the more vibrant white-and-black color scheme from last year’s Xbox One S. The Xbox One X isn’t necessarily more eye-catching-it still has that “generic cable box” look to it in my opinion.

METRO LAST LIGHT REDUX PC CONTROLLER SPRINTING UPGRADE
Some of the Xbox One X’s “new” features debuted on the S last year, such as HDR support, but because that was more of a placeholder model and provided less incentive to upgrade it only makes sense to cover them again here. A quick aside: We’ll be comparing the Xbox One X to both the original Xbox One and 2016’s Xbox One S in this review.
