Xbox One What Is Your Least Favorite Part About Your Xbox One?

[turklife]

Is there anything about the console that you don't care that much for? Is there any feature that you would liked to see improvement on?

For me, I really like the Kinect voice features, but I would like to see a little improvement made on the system so that it is a little bit more accurate. There is a huge difference in performance though between the Kinect on the One and on the 360.

Some general tweaks would be great!
For me i'd love to see
-Battery power indicator
-Optional volume priority/mute feature when snapping
-I wish it would come with a rechargeable battery pack next time around, but I don't really mind.

I really love the kinect voice features when he work. For me the barely ever do the right command.

I find that sometimes you have to put on an accent for it to do the right commands, and like shout at it... My mother always laughs at me so I tend not to use it when she's around.

Really the entire Kinect features, I really feel they should be optional or at least in a separate package. I don't want a home entertainment system, I want a gaming system.

Overall I'm quite satisfied with it in terms of design, features, and games. One thing that I don't like is that Kinect doesn't always work when I speak to it. Actually I dislike the whole idea that the Kinect is included and not optional like orz said. The Kinect took extra space on my TV rack.

I wish Microsoft just kept the party system the way it was on 360. On 360, the party system was basically perfection, now it's messed up. I also wish you could be in parties with people on the 360.

Yeah, same here. I had mine on a small table right infront of my rack.

I agree... Kinect is my least favorite thing about the XB1! It kinda works when the system is already on, but it's a crap shoot when I try to get the system to cut on.

The price...that's it in a nutshell. If we could get consoles to come out at a starting retail price of $199, people would be all over these things. Yes, I know it's not practical. I am just looking back foundly to the days when the latest and greatest wouldn't break the bank. I guess those days are long gone. Which is why I am still without an Xbox One...(pout)

The fact that we're still waiting on a game with great Kinect integration. The novelty of voice commanding is outweighed heavily by the price tag of Kinect. I know that great releases won't be far off, but we are almost at February and there are no truly amazing Kinect games.

I wish the party feature ran a little smoother. I also noticed there's no "join game in progress" option. It's hard sometimes to get everyone in your party in on the same game/lobby. A battery indicator would be nice too.

My biggest disappointment on launch day was finding out that we couldn't play our own mp3 files like on the 360. I seriously hope that gets added back in soon. I used that feature a lot, especially with games like Forza where I'm running countless laps tuning my car and some background music really helps (what car doesn't have a radio?!?!).

The whole dashboard has been a bit of a disappointment, but I know it will get updated soon.
