I can't really score the Xbox One S because of the short time I had with it, but from initial impressions it will definitely support your 4K (HDR) enabled screen a lot better than your standard Xbox One would. Especially if you are into your movie content...
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...

Smaller than Xbox One, 4K game upscaling, It's a cheap UHD Blu-ray player, HDR compatible, Improved, grippy controller
Not native 4K in games
Xbox One S – A fine UHD Blu-ray player The Xbox One S doubles as a UHD Blu-ray player. As far as I'm concerned, that's the real reason to consider getting one. It's a far more affordable option than the two dedicated UHD Blu-ray players currently on the m...

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gaming; technical specifications largely unchanged from Xbox One; no Kinect port (if that is, indeed, a con); will be superseded by Project Scorpio console next year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...
