Xbox users are now getting a big-time saver update. Microsoft has announced that a new update will be making its way to Xbox soon, where the users will experience an enhanced search interface and a modifiable active hours power setting. These features will aid players in adaptively tailoring their gaming experience while keeping a tab on energy consumption.
Xbox Consoles Get Another Eco-Friendly Feature
The active hours’ power setting permits gamers to precisely schedule the period during which the console is powered. Cognizant of individual usage patterns, this feature intelligently saves energy when it is not required. To become more energy efficient, Xbox has introduced a new power setting that reduces the console’s power consumption from 10-15 watts to just 0.5 watts during shutdown hours. This environmentally-friendly feature is coupled with a newer and sleeker search experience that includes visible filter categories, gallery-style results, and the ability to search for content on YouTube within the Movies & TV tab.
As a result, your console is now more eco-friendly than ever. With these upgrades, locating desired content will become a seamless experience for users, allowing them to browse more easily. According to Microsoft, the new Xbox update will start rolling out this week, although it may take some time to appear on individual consoles. Whether you’re a dedicated gamer or just looking for a more energy-efficient entertainment system, these new features will improve your Xbox experience. So keep an eye out for the update, and make sure you downloaded it before you play something.
We also expect the same from PlayStation because we connect our consoles to the plug. You might not see the result in your bill for the first month, but there will surely be a difference when you check your yearly electricity bill. That feature is also good for the environment, and we should say that software is like magic, even for a gaming console.
