Sure, everyone’s talking about the Xbox One this week. But it’s not the only new piece of Xbox hardware MIcrosoft showed this week. The tech giant also announced a newly-redesigned Xbox 360 e model, one that’s styled to match the Xbox One’s shiny/matte exterior. But what’s underneath the hard plastic shell? iFixit set out to find out.
The website — best known for open-source, user-generated repair manuals for high-end consumer electronics — peeled the outer layers of the 360 E and discovered the same cooling system as the 360 S and a hard drive that’s easier to replace. That is, it’s easier provided you buy an official Xbox 360-branded hard drive. Click on through for the full rundown of the 360 e’s guts.

I thought the 360 S looked alright, but man this new version is ugly.
Well, usually all those bits are glued together into a kind of box shape, which makes it look better.
Lol, I meant the whole console, when I clicked through I saw an image of the console in its pre-breakdown state.
I know 🙂
Oh dear.
Looks amazing.
Hey its the 10th version of the Xbox 360. I guess they have to keep that paper weight relevant somehow right?
But seriously, you say everyone is talking about the Xbox One. I must have missed something? I have only seen people talking about the PS4.
So is this bringing a price drop to the unit?
That’s funny I was thinking there would be Hopes and dreams inside
x clamp still I see really 🙁
