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.

I thought the overall idea would have been pretty cool to see pan out fully. I guess the one will continue to be improved greatly.

JM- The xbox one isn't even that big. Why would you pay more just for a slightly smaller console?


XB1 isn't that big? You must be crazy to say such a thing.

Brag Would be useful if you were on limited on space, and more portable if you're on the go a lot. Other than that its's just smaller. When they do come out with a model its just gonna be preference on which one you get


Truee, if you need space the Xbox Mini would be a great idea.
