Microsoft shoots down Xbox One Mini rumor

4.7
The Xbox One is a large console, but it seems Microsoft is in no rush to unveil a slimmer model. The company was rumored to be launching an "Xbox One Mini" in October, but Phil Spencer, Microsoft's head of Xbox, has shot down the idea on Twitter. His "not real" statement is pretty definitive, although of course, that doesn't mean Microsoft isn't planning a redesign for a later date. Although the Xbox One's sales are behind the PlayStation 4, it has a slew of exclusives coming out this fall including Halo 5: Guardians, Forza Motorsport 6 and Rise of the Tomb Raider (okay, that last one is actually a timed exclusive). If Microsoft is working on a "Mini" model, it's more likely to appear at somewhere like E3 next year.

A mini xbox would be cool and all but the xbox one as it is seems to be ok, To me that is.

I could care less if it were smaller. I already have purchased one and I definitely do not wish to spend another $400 or so on another one.

RebPosted:

I just think they have no need to make it smaller.. nobody even looks at it, they look at the size of your screen

Daniel- i would not of bought this anyway


Sameee, I didn't think it was a bad idea, but if it costs a lot more, Nooooooo way.


It wouldn't have costed more. It's slimmed down and has some features missing from it. It would have appealed to the people who cant afford paying $350 for a current-gen console.


I would have preferred this console if it was smaller doesnt really matter if it docks some features since i dont really use my xbox for that anyway.
