Review XBOX ONE

                                                   
    The updated Xbox One, the Xbox One S, is here, but there are still a number of reasons for you to consider its older brother, the original Xbox One. 

You'll be sacrificing support for HDR and Ultra HD Blu-rays, but the original console can now be found for far cheaper than its updated version.

However, the amount that you'll be sacrificing will increase by even more when  Project Scorpio arrives later this year.

You have even more reason to stay with the original Xbox One if you're a fan of Microsoft's Kinect, which divided opinion when it was included with every Xbox One upon the console's initial release.

The reason for this is that the Xbox One S doesn't include a Kinect port on its rear, meaning that you'll have to buy an adaptor if you want to use your camera accessory.

Meanwhile the Xbox One is now a true multimedia hub, close to what Microsoft always promised it would be.

It's a next-gen games console, a TV companion and guide, a media streaming centre, a Skype phone, a Blu-ray player, a pizza delivery machine and more.
