Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

As a day one xbox user, I had to decide whether it was worth upgrading to the Xbox One S and I am glad i made that decision. Here's some background of my setup: I have a 55" LG Oled tv (Oled55E6P) which is a 4K tv with Support of both HDR formats which are HDR10 (supported by Xbox One S) as well as Dolby Vision (not supported but my favorite of the two). With this set up, the Xbox will be able to (after a day one update) display in 4K resolution upscaled, or you can leave it at the native 1080P and have your TV handle the processing on its end. Apps that support the new resolution like Netflix look stunning, you will have to upgrade your netflix to the 4K plan (11.99 a month) but it's worth it in my opinion. Another big plus for me is the built in 4K blu ray player! I have to criticize MS for not explaining the features about this xbox at E3 because I don't think people are aware that this xbox has that. The only other 4k blu ray player is the samsung for around 319 dollars which is not great if you look at the reviews. It's a no brainer to go with a system that plays games and has a 4K player. I purchased two 4K HDR movies Batman V. Superman and Mad Max and let me tell you the HDR10 makes everything pop. I can never go back to 1080P after seeing this. Now on to the most important question. Should you buy this if you don't have a 4K screen? Here's what I'll say, the processor is different because it is definitely faster navigating through the system but that would be the only upgrade on this machine, aside from the smaller size of course. I would not recommend upgrading unless you plan on getting a 4k screen in the near future. Maybe wait for the scorpio. One thing I'm not happy about is the exclusion of Dolby Vision. Yes friends there is a new format war, the last one was Blu-ray v. HD-dvd and now it is HDR 10 versus Dolby vision. HDR10 is the industry standard and is free for any manufacturer to use (and it looks great on the screen) and offers a static HDR image. Dolby Vision is a proprietary version of HDR (much better in my opinion) which offers HDR in a dynamic way. Manufacturers like Sony/Samsung etc do not want to pay the licencing fee so they are sticking to their guns on that. Currently LG and Vizio P/M series support both and will future proof their system so the customer doesn't lose. Xbox One S supports HDR10 and will never support DV due to it being a hardware change not a simple software update. Just thought everyone should know.
