Eh? The slim alters the resolution of games, you mean... upscaling to 4k from 720p/1080p? I don't suppose you have a link to that? Wouldn't mind a read over it to hear the ideas of what that S model brings to the gaming side of things, I had thought it was purely media which got the resolution change. Awesome if some games get nicely stretched up to 4k though if it's done right.

If you go to Gamestop website, and look at the details for the XB1 s, in the first asterisk/exception clause I copied this from there.

 

[*] 4K streaming with select apps, see Xbox.com. HDR functionality available with supported games and TVs. Some apps require app provider-specific subscriptions and/or other requirements. Xbox One Backward Compatibility feature works with select Xbox 360 games, see www.xbox.com/backcompat. Xbox Live and broadband internet required for initial download of game to console. Stand sold separately

I cut this quote from gearsofwar.com

We are proud to announce that Gears of War 4 supports High Dynamic Range (HDR) through the Xbox One S, delivering richer, more luminous colors on HDR-ready TVs.

We'll be showing Gears of War 4 running on the Xbox One S in HDR on the show floor at E3, so expect impressions on Gears of War 4 in HDR to appear throughout the week.

Sorry I meant to say that it supports HDR which deals more with the contrast. I guess the color palatte is greatly improved. I  read somewhere about Sony possibly releasing a smartphone with HDR capability. Xperia X premium I believe it was called.
