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.

-Signed Sounds like a lot of time and effort for no really much. Looks cool though.


I would find this useful for me as I like to travel and a lot of times I hate buying WiFi on planes, and since some planes have power outlets under the seats, would be perfect. Plug in the power cord, start it up, play offline whatever game is in the disc tray.


Wow, what an idea, if MS do that. You need to ask for compensation...

Thats awesome, I wish they would sell them in bulk in stores. Id rather have one of those than a regular tv at times.

Zoidberg Whoa, that's really innovative. I wonder how much one of those costs.


I'm going to imagine it would be anywhere from $100-$400 more than the Xbox One.

j8ke This is really cool! but in a way it is a waste of time.


Its really not though. This makes it a lot more portable than your average Xbox.


I don't take my xbox anywhere but my room though, as do most people
