The stock Xbox One is available in capacities of 500GB or 1TB. Modern AAA titles can take up as much as 50GB each, meaning the stock internal hard drive can hold about 8-10 games which isn’t a lot. This means everytime you will want to play a new game, you will have to free space by deleting one of the old ones. Fortunately, there is a solution – external hard drive made exactly for Xbox One. Seagate game drive is available in four capacities – 2TB, 4TB, massive 8TB and 512GB external SSD.

In our and many gamer eyes, one of the biggest Xbox One downsides is having standard disposable batteries in controllers, meaning everytime battery runs out, you will have to buy new ones and so on. For example, PS4 DualShock controller comes with an inbuilt rechargeable battery pack. It’s just sad that Xbox makes us pay extra to get this charging kit.
Just snap battery pack in the back of your controller and recharge it once it runs out, as simple as that.
