I just bought an XB1 over the past weekend. Before that, I was strictly doing all my gaming on Sony platforms, but I'm very deep into the Windows eco-system. I've got a couple Surfaces, another laptop, a Band 2, and several generations of Windows Phones. I have some gripes with the UI in W10 Mobile, but on my Surface and my laptop W10 is a really great experience.
As for the XB1 interface, I'm not fond of it. There are some minor gripes. For example, navigation is pretty easy once you get the hang of it, but accessing games requires too many button presses from the main page to the games library. I'm not sure what the old interface was like, but I'd prefer to have my pinned items show up at the top of the page rather than having to press a trigger to jump to the pins.
I'm still getting a hang of the UI, and it might grow on me over time, but the great thing about W10 in all its iterations is that a lot of the UI is never really and truly "final." If there are issues with the UI, I expect them to be tweaked and changed in due time (hoping to get into the preview program somehow). So I'm optimistic for what's to come in the future. |
As someone who is new to it, you know you can double tap the Xbox button to bring up the menu. I just told my friend about that who has had it for a year, he had no idea. lmfao

I learned that one ;) I meant that the games and apps are too low on the home page, and I've gotta jump down to the bottom to access my games or the pinned programs. I wish all that stuff was on top, or if maybe there were a tab in the Action Center (or whatever it's called on XB1) to access your list of games.
