The first Xbox One laptop mod has already been made

4.8
We have seen folks create an Xbox 360 laptop mod in the past, but now one person has charged ahead and made a 22 inch laptop from the hardware pieces of Microsoft's Xbox One console. It comes from the hands and tools of experienced modder James “DarkUncle” Terry.

Terry posted up the results of his labor on his YouTube channel Monday. As you can see in the clip, much of the Xbox One's case was reused for this mod, including the front bezel which contains the slot loading disc drive. The Xbox One power light has been reused as as well and placed on the top side of the laptop mod. All of the posts on the back of the console are saved as well.

Terry did add a line out audio port in this mod, in case his buyer wanted to use an external audio speaker or source that is not digital based. Obviously, this creation does not have batteries like a regular laptop, so the owner will have to keep the mod plugged in with the big Xbox One power brick.

This looks amazing. Wonder if he will be able to get it to function purely as a laptop and run pc games as well. Or is is just plainly xbox?

That's actually really cool! Too bad it probably costs well over a thousand dollars if you want one of them!

Bloomy I don't really see the point in this? Help me out?


The idea is to use the xbox one like a laptop.. you know like on airplanes, around the house, etc...


seems cool but where would ou plug it in on a plane if you still need to bring your power brick
