Kinect: One of the many ways to interact with your Xbox One.
Depending on the game or app, you can control your Xbox One using the Kinect via voice commands and gestures or your controller. It is designed to interact with you in multiple ways.
Easily turn Xbox One on or off.
To turn off your Xbox One, just say "Xbox Off." This puts Xbox One into standby mode where it's only listening for the voice command, "Xbox On" allowing you to get into the game faster.

They're perfect for the voice controls alone

Go to settings and turn the Cortana bit off. It goes back to its original function. "Hey cortana" makes you sound like a mentalist. "Xbox off" is much better!

You should probably put CEX in the title. How else would people know to vote cold? :P

I despise Kinect. Imagine having some sexy time with the wife and it starts recording or broadcasts live :laughing:

I have no fear of it broadcasting anything of interest in my house - honeymoon period is over :disappointed::stuck_out_tongue:

Now that Scorpio is definitely doing VR, would it be worth picking one of these up cheap in case they're needed for that?

Phil Spencer's right about VR.

The reason I picked one up from CEX earlier this year. I thought that it would surely be the perfect way to enhance VR. Hoping it will be incorporated with one of the makers of the headsets.

I reckon they would repackage and relaunch Kinect if it is supported/used with Scorpio, just like how PS has a new version of their camera. Also it's too much confusion with the extra cable and stuff.

Very hot. I wonder how low it will go? With the additional cable necessary to connect to the Xbox One S it's putting a lot of owners off keeping theirs. Crazy to think this is only £2 more than the original Kinect with PSU on CEX!

The Kinect doesn't respond to "Xbox off" anymore. They changed the prompt to "Hey Cortana". It's incredibly laggy now. I used it mainly as the "Record that" feature but since they changed the prompt and how slow it is, it's become useless.

You can change it back as I have done.
Id advise everyone to get one while you can, as MS will stop production of these, and then the prices will rocket, the voice control options make Kinect a very powerful tool on XB1 I cant live without it.
