Microsoft has finally revealed the next iteration of Xbox with a fitting moniker – the Xbox One. Aimed as an all-in-one device, the Xbox One is set to revolutionize the home entertainment landscape, thanks to its fully upgraded hardware.
Here are the specs provided by DigitalTrends and directly from Microsoft Xbox One page for your reference:
Obviously, the Xbox One is one hell of an upgrade compared to Xbox 360. Technically 8 times better in terms of graphic performance, this is unequivocally still a gaming console but it can do a lot more – a culmination of Microsoft’s vision to conquer living rooms.
I personally thought that Microsoft did a good job in revealing how this boxy new Xbox looks like. Contrary to some negative comments on how boxy it is, I believe that Microsoft is just being true to its new design that easily blends with its UI/UX design philosophy (metro) – unified design across all devices. Yes, the Xbox is boxier than ever.
I’m personally excited for Microsoft’s plans for the Xbox One. Choosing Xbox One over Playstation is still not an option though as Sony hasn’t fully revealed the Playstation 4. How about you? What’s your reaction on this?
