I hated the size, I hated one of the USB ports being on one side; I did enjoy it greatly but my OCD kept itching everytime I fired it up and now with the S model out it was an itch I just had to scratch ( I already have an S, the GOW4 limited edition but it's not mean to be used, it's part of my GOW collection ), maybe if I tried to sell it I would have gotten a few more bucks but to the hell with that, I don't have time to do it, so I took it and traded it for a new 1 TB S model.

lol congrats.....the size never really bothered me, I actually like the old design. But when I got the X1S it felt so much smaller(and a little sturdier) it is definitely more convenient overall. Crazy that the X1X will be even smaller

You must not remember the size of early Video Cassette Recorders. Those things were huge. The X1 is more like the 90's VCR with its smaller shape.

I'm cool with the old size, but congrats with your new model.

@the-a-baum: nope but you can still find NIB launch X1 with Kinect, I've seen them, hell, I've even seen Day One X1 NIB.

The funny thing is that the orig Xbox size doesn't bother me, go figure....

Funny thing, same here. For Father's Day I wanted Battlefield 1. Saw a "military appreciation" limited edition X1S, 1TB, with that very game. So, bought it, and sold my big X1, with the cost difference being what Battlefield 1 would have been new. (at least before the online sale grrrr). Still a win.

It's not gone, it's in my living room still. It will move to the bedroom on November 7 though :)
