They can tempt me if they put a 4k blu-ray player in there, as that is on my to buy list. Those only very recently came out and cost $400, so it would be unlikely. Plus there is nothing in it for MS, they're much more interested in streaming. But sure, if I can have an XBox One built into a 4k blu-ray player for the same price, I'll bite.

My guess for a XBox One Elite is a bigger hdd perhaps even 2tb ssd/hdd hybrid. Yet nothing that would effect games beyond a bit less pop up and better load times from the faster hdd.

More likely is a cheaper version without optical drive, smaller, perhaps even with the power adapter inside. Nice cheap to produce mass market device with keyboard/mouse support running windows 10 UWP. The only box you need when you go to college, windows productivity software will work on it and synch with your windows phone etc.

I don't know where you live, but we sell a 4k Blu-ray player at work that's $180 and is on sale pretty often for $100. It's still pretty expensive considering how rare 4k movies are, but it's certainly not $400.

If you work there you should know those are 4K streaming and 4K upscaling players, they do not play 4K blu-rays, that have only come out this month. It's a nother marketing cluster fuck waiting to happen. HD ready all over again.

Samsung BD-J6300 4K 3D Smart Blu-ray Disc Player $149
3D Smart Blu-ray disc player with 4K UHD upscaling capabilities

Is not the same as

Samsung UBD-K8500 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Player $399
4K/UHD Blu-ray Playback via HDMI

That's the first 4K blu-ray player that has been released in the West and $400 is a very good introduction price, they started at $3300 in Japan! http://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/panasonic-4k-uhd-bluray-player-available-japan-november/
