The nicest description most Polygon staff could manage for the Xbox One's silhouette is "inoffensive" — there's no sugarcoating the console's lack of visual flair. Microsoft has created a system designed to blend into the other components of your home entertainment center, and it does that ... for better or worse.
It's quiet, and it runs relatively cool. But if you’re looking for subtlety, this is not the console for you.
Is it just me, or does the writer/editor not understand the word "subtle" here?
Otherwise, that was a really beautifully done review, at least visually.
