New Xbox 360 torn down, shows we're all the same on the inside

4.3
A teardown of the new Xbox 360 announced at Microsoft's E3 press conference by iFixit showed some surprising non-changes to the redesigned system. Namely, the console still uses the storage, cooling fan and processing power from the current version of the system first announced in June 2010.

Among the changes made to the system (referred to as the Xbox 360 E), iFixit noticed that Microsoft updated the RF module and that "the absence of the power button backlight found in the Xbox 360 S is easily noticed." The redesigned console is available now for the same price as the existing models. We got a good look at the system ourselves at E3, albeit from the outside.

Wagering I don't know why someone would buy a new 360 for $300, when they can wait a few months, save up $200 more and buy the Xbox One...


The Xbox 360 E is 300 pounds, not dollars!

You don't need a water cooler in a 360, it runs cool enough as it is


Yeah right that has to be a joke.

ShadowBoltDashie I don't know why but I have a feeling some kids are going to ask their parents for the Xbox One and they will get the Xbox 360 that looks like the Xbox One ._.


How does it look like the xbox one?


Some parents will make the mistake. Especially if they don't know what it exactly looks like and only gets a brief description of it from their kid.
