Own it on PC already, but your recommendation is a good one.
I would agree, even though I couldn't follow my own advice in this case.

Not sure if we still need one, but I made a thread dedicated to talking about the Xbox One S 4KTV compatibility and settings for various sets and devices.

Thank you so much for that. Planning to get an S within a week and a 4K TV by the end of September, that thread will be incredibly helpful.

Unless you're willing to spend twice as much on OLED, your best choices right now are P-Series or KS8000. Tradeoff between having FALD and Dolby Vision support (P-series) or higher peak brightness and better content upscaling (KS8000).
Thank you for this DJ Luscious!

Netflix is borked on the XBOne S. Unless they recently fixed it. Because it forces the TVs to HDR mode as soon as the apps starts. It should only be going into HDR mode when streaming back a title with HDR. And most of the Netflix UHD titles do not have HDR.
Streaming Netflix HDR content from my other devices has looked very good from my 850C. I haven't had any brightness hits with HDR. Just the opposite.

Same. Will be here this afternoon. Pretty glad I did not spend an extra $50 to get it delivered today.

Updated my set-up pic...
Almost all of my games are installed on the external 4TB HDD from the transfer from my 1TB console. I am pretty sure I could move everything over to the Xbox now and not have to worry about running out of space again since I probably won't be playing any newer games on it (I bought it for the UHD BD player, all future exclusives will be played on PC). Is it really worth keeping the HDD for the faster loading, or should I move it all over and find another use for the HDD?

The games are all 60hz only nowadays
Yes, the P updated to HDR10. I don't have any other HDR10 components other than the XOS.

Can’t stump the diablos
Picked one of these up and put an amplified OTA antenna on it.
Holy shit I've been missing out. I underestimated the awesomeness of the Xbone for cord cutters looking for their television fix; just in time for the Olympics too.
Lots of nice little features like when turning off the system it automatically powers off my TV and sound bar.
Forza, Gears of war ultimate and Rare replay should keep me busy in the games front for a while.

For anyone with the same problem, I got a new bluetooth dongle that's supports 4.1 and it now works fine, my old one only supported 2.1 so that's what must have been causing the error.
Got mine in a day too!
Sadly, this unit was destined for my kids' TV since it's 4k if not UHD. Sadly my son decided to sneak around and try to make his own Xbox Live account while with one of his friends, despite being told explicitly not to. (he's 10)
Now I have a dilemma since that's my only 4k display.

You would think that's the case, until you start paying games that seem to run smoother on the S.
Of course to answer your question, wait for thr 500 or the 1TB. I didn't because I have a sickness, and I can't control myself.

beaut.
I'll probably go for the Samsung KS8000 eventually. Hopefully around October I'll jump in
Definitely glad I didn't either lol. Haven't bought from Newegg in a while. I completely forgot they always ship fast
LOL. Your son is a clever boy! You never know, maybe the TV could magically move to your room...

My Quantum Break from Newegg was delivered yesterday (in my mailbox) but the leasing office is acting like they can't find my Halo 5 CE... All of this could have just been avoided if they had shipped them all together. I for the life of me can't understand why they didn't.

You'll be a happy man, I am madly in love with my KS8000.
Some more quick pics of it in an all-black electronic cabinet
I believe you lol! Right now I game on a 2012 (I think) ES8000, so it's a few generations old lol

My OCD is twitching haha cmon announce the black version.
I'm so sad I sold my matte black Xbox 360 S 😭😭😭.
I've been trying to find a decently priced new/sealed unit and haven't yet. One day hopefully, but the production having stopped will make them more expensive in the future I bet.

So I said I would not post back in this thread unless I saw the black out video issue again, and yep, I saw the blackout video again. It is back with a fucking vengeance.
So unfortunately, my fix of not using PC RGB for the Color Space has nothing at all to do with anything. It is completely back. Damn it.
EDIT - It just blacked out at the very end of the Men's 200M in the Olympics! Seriously WTF.

M and P series for HDR not sure if the M got the HDR10 update the P got yet.
Edit looks like M series got HDR10 update too

Update went out to both.
Does the M series have a HDCP 2.2 HDMI port though?

Idk im just remembering what the Cto said over on the AVS forums. Said the update will roll out to both the p and m series.
Too much traffic on that forum it's hard to keep up now.
Then the new M series would be a decent way to go if you want a new 4K TV with HDR.
Fair enough. I bought a P series this year and haven't looked much at the new M series (I had an M60-C3 which is a great TV before buying a new P65-C1 for the increase in Active LED zones)
I know LOL. I wish it was black haha. But its sooooo good. Dashboard has like no lag to me. Maybe my launch X1 was just messed up or something - but finally everything opens much quicker. And like native settings/activity apps open instantaneously.
I love the matte black version, so I am sorry for you lol! I'm just sad I scratched it slightly with dropping my xbox one controller on it when I unboxed the launch xbox one

IIRC they did but I can't find a source, I think it's going to be 20USD or something

P series is also a 10 bit panel over M series which is an 8 bit panel I believe.

What did you mean by this??
How exactly do I turn off UHD (or you referred to it as WGC, which I googled and see that is Wide Color Gamut)?
Can someone plz clarify is HDCP 2.2 HDMI the main thing to look for in HDR tv? If the tv does not have this, then what do you lose or not get from the xbox one s?
