XBOX One X


The highly anticipated Xbox One X (formerly known as Project Scorpio) packs a heavy punch in terms of graphics prowess while having a very slim form factor. But is it worth the upgrade from the Xbox One S or the Xbox One.

Here are the Specifications for the Xbox One X

Ø  8 Core AMD Custom CPU clocked at 2.3GHz

Ø  6 Teraflops CPU, AMD Radeon-based graphics clocked at 1172MHz

Ø  12GB GDDR5 memory

Ø  Dimensions: 30 x 24 x 6 cm

Ø  Weight: 3.8kg

Ø  Power consumption: 245W

 

Even though it has much more processing power compared to the previous versions, the X has the smallest size of the Xbox One consoles (300 x 240 x 60mm) and weighs around 3.8kgs. The matte black finish and design of the One X makes it highly appealing to the eye, and blends in with all your other entertainment gear. It looks much sleeker compared to the One and One S consoles.

For connectivity, there is an HDMI 2.0 output at the back, along with an HDMI 1.4 input to plug in your Set-top box through the console, like the original Xbox One, which makes it your home entertainment hub, thanks to the TV and OneGuide features. The X also contains 3 USB 3.0 ports which can be used to connect an external hard disk, charge a controller, or connecting the Kinect sensor through an adapter. It also offers Ethernet connectivity along with Dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi functionality.

The new console works well with all former Xbox One accessories, including the controllers, though a slightly improved one is included inside the box.

Console Experience

The graphics are stunning, especially with the latest racing game Forza Motorsport 7 on the Xbox One consoles. So, if you are a fan of cars or racing games, Forza’s newest game alone may make the steep price point of the One X worth it.

Older titles like Assassin’s Creed Origins, Shadow of Mordor have enhanced graphics and run very smoothly on the new console. The load times are also lower on the new Xbox One X.

The new 4K Ultra High Definition Blu-ray player of the Xbox One X is excellent for movie lovers and makes it your one-stop home entertainment hub.

 

The Competition

Many struggle to choose the One X when the One S costs less than half the price of the former and also has the 4K UHD Blu-ray player. The major difference between the two consoles is their load times. The One X is roughly 4 times faster than the One S, so if you are not bothered by longer load times, then you can go for the Xbox One S. Personally, as a casual gamer, I don’t find that the faster load times are worth paying an extra 300 dollars but this really depends on personal preference. For serious gamers that want the best possible experience, the Xbox One X would be the option for you.

In addition, there aren’t enough Xbox One X exclusive games yet, so far only Forza Motorsport 7 is on the list. On the other hand, Sony currently a lot of exclusives on the PlayStation, like the award-winning ‘The Last of Us’ and ‘God of War’ series, with more on the way.

Another issue to mention is that the Xbox One X has no Virtual Reality (VR) offering yet, even though the console is more than capable of handling it seamlessly. Microsoft have not hinted at adding the feature in the console’s future. So, it may give Sony an advantage at that front with their PSVR technology.

However, compared to its rival, the Sony PS4 Pro, the Xbox One X has 6 teraflops of processing power compared to 4.12 teraflops for the PS4 Pro and is roughly 1.5 times faster than the PS4 Pro.

Agricultural Robots: Do we really need them?

Robotics and Artificial Intelligence  Artificial intelligence and big data are reshaping traditional businesses. Robotics and artificial intelligence are two areas that are linked but not the same. It is the design of robots to do tasks autonomously whereas AI is how systems mimic the human mind to make judgments and learn. While robotics can have an AI component (vice versa), both can and generally do exist independently. AI simplifies big data analytics by automating and improving data preparation, data visualization, predictive modelling and other complicated analytical operations that would otherwise be time-consuming and labor-intensive. If you have no knowledge about bigdata, it is okay. Big data is the gasoline that powers AI. Large volumes of different data allow machine learning systems to perform what they were supposed to do: learn and master a skill. The more data the AI has access to, the more it can learn and enhance its pattern detection capabilities.  After yea...

The Holographic Frontier: Redefining Physical Engagement at Live Events

  For years, the success of a tech conference was measured by a simple checklist: big-name speakers, a packed exhibitor hall, and after-parties with decent WiFi. Attendees would flock in, exchange a flurry of business cards, have dozens of promising conversations, and then... nothing. The connections would fade, the momentum would stall, and the vibrant community built over three days would dissipate into a few forgotten LinkedIn connections. The event became a moment in time, not a movement.  But a seismic shift is underway. The most forward-thinking event organizers are no longer selling tickets to a physical (or virtual) gathering. They are building ecosystems. And the secret weapon in this new arms race? The transition from a temporary event app to a year-round community platform. The Glaring Gap in the Event Experience Think about the traditional event lifecycle: Months of Hype:  A relentless drumbeat of marketing emails and social posts. The Main Event:  A fren...
