The new Xbox One will be in your hands 22nd of November if you have remembered to pre-order it. If not, you may have to wait a little longer. In any case, not everyone is tumbling head over heels and some are coyly eyeing the much cheaper PS4 with the Wii taking a poor third place.

The Xbox one is superior in all respects. Though similarly specced to the PS4, it has dedicated eSRAM for graphics that should put it a notch above the competition and enable better xbox one games enjoyment. Except for this and for the Kinect sensor, the hardware of the PSR matches the Xbox one specs. Kinect 2 avatar in the xbox one has decided advantages and the xbox one controller with over 40 design improvements. You can use gestures, the remote controller, the Xbox One smart glass device or voice commands to get the console to do what you want: play games, surf the net or watch TV. 


Price is not the only criterion for judging or choosing a device. The PS4 may be cheaper but lacks the priceless functionalities of Kinect 2 that include voice, motion and camera as well as microphone features that heighten your enjoyment of the Xbox one.

The Xbox one specs are impressive. It is equipped with an 8 core AMD APU working in tandem with a GPU and dedicated eSRAM for superior xbox one games experience. Even the xbox one controller is different, more ergonomic and easy to use. The Xbox one is not just for xbox one games; it becomes your living room media center, allowing you to simultaneously watch TV, surf the net, skype and play games with no hitches in either of these programs. Importantly, the xbox one specs feature a pass through HDMI port which means a better way to connect your dish set top box to the TV.


There were rumors about the need to stay always connected to the internet to make any worthwhile use of the Xbox one. Microsoft has laid these apprehensions to rest. You need to connect to the internet only at first set up after which you can use the Blu-ray drive to install and play xbox one games. With the advanced Kinect 2 and improved xbox one controller, you can enjoy newer games with no restriction on older, used and pre-owned games. Gaming, watching the TV or surfing the net becomes even better with the new Xbox one specs such as impulse triggers on the xbox one controller. You can use your voice to wake up the xbox one or tell it to doze.

The 8 core AMD processor and GPU with high speed 8 GB DDR3 RAM means the xbox one is faster and better at everything, xbox one games included. Multi core processors means three processes can occur concurrently without any glitches, jerky motion or time lag. The clincher is that the xbox one specs feature heart rate recognition and facial recognition too during gameplay. Think of the possibilities as your excitement mounts and is reflected on your face and heart rate!
