Today, Microsoft has finally unveiled a new Xbox One.

The Xbox One S is the "smallest Xbox One yet" and will release this August. Honestly, we didn't get a very big look at it just yet other than a quick clip showing off the svelte new system and the fact that the controller will support Bluetooth.
