I bought a Stormy Grey Xbox One S with Battlefield 1 on Black Friday at Walmart. It worked fine for a few weeks, I got Dishonored 2 and Dark Souls 3, and everything was fine. But then the week before Christmas it started having one of the launch day bugs, where it would turn itself off at random times. I took it back to Walmart and got a refund, then went to Gamestop and got a Deep Blue Gears of War 4 Xbox One S, but with a warranty. And at the moment I can't even finish the setup screen due to the update not completing. I am obviously very irritated and wishing that whoever cursed me with bad wifi and bugs would get hit by a truck, but I am starting to wonder:
Is this a sign not to get an Xbox One S?
A quick google search gave me a lot of articles about Xbox One S problems. So yeah, this might be a sign. But if you have update problems, a PS4 won't give you much of an improvement. It's a well-known problem that PS4 updates take hours and hours for relatively small files. Good luck, I hope whatever you pick works well for you.

Yeah, as much as I love console gaming, this generation of consoles has been thoroughly disappointing in terms of stability and efficiency. Not to mention Sony still insists that Backwards Compatibility is overrated.
