The new hardware is also compatible with all of your Xbox One accessories. Microsoft is really doing this right. You’ll also notice that the console looks a lot like the Xbox One S, but it’s actually smaller. What kind of engineering black magic they conjured to make this happen is beyond me.Those that haven’t upgraded to a 4K have nothing to worry about because the X will help your current games run better as well with quicker load times and minor upgrades. It’s something.
