Redesigned Xbox One “Slim” quite tiny and less shiny

The design of the Xbox One is rather sharp and oppressive but at least it’s square, unlike the slanted PlayStation 4. As the consoles age, newer, slimmer versions will replace the older models — yet for now, we’re stuck with hard angled machines.

Not so, says designer Retovona who’s whipped up a concept shot of the new-look Xbox One “Slim”. This is of course, a fan-made concept render and will never materialise from the Microsoft production line.

For comparison, here’s what the Xbox One looks like.

Retovona has shaved off at least half of the bulk from the Xbox One, rounded the edges, added a middle “lip” and has seemingly integrated the Kinect 2.0 sensor bar into the machine (it’s that shiny black plastic on the left of the Slim). This talented designer has also created a cherry-red Xbox One with a matching Lumia 1020 paired with it. Everything’s a concept image, but a fanboy can dream, can’t he?
