Xbox 360 slim, what changed?

 When Microsoft announced Xbox 360 slim on Electronic Entertainment Expo this year, most people are surprised then asking what change compare with old xbox 360? Well i will try to describe changes on Xbox 360 slim.

1. Shape Xbox 360 Console

First is about size of console, "Slim" meaning this xbox is smaller than the old one and also with lower power consumption. Second about power and DVD drive buttons are also touch-sensitive, same with PS3. It’s a sweet feature that saves the console from wear-and-tear through repeated button mashing.

2. Power Brick

Which was one of the bigger issues with the original Xbox 360 model. It’s also shrunken down between one to two inches in size, and weighs a little less than the original brick. Still, size makes a difference in some entertainment centers, so take that for what you will.

3. Hard Drive

The hard drive included with the Xbox 360 Slim is much smaller than in previous models. Rather than an oblong, silver-colored device that snaps onto the top of a console, it’s a tinier, 2.5-inch diskette-style hard drive that’s a little harder to remove.

3. Additional ports

Xbox 360 Slim comes with two additional USB ports. The original console has three, so if you’re someone that likes to plug things in (like wired controllers, the Xbox Camera or a stereo headset) you’ll find plenty of room to do that here. It also works with the new USB hard drives that Microsoft introduced a little while ago, which you’ll need to use since the new model doesn’t come with memory card slots.

4. Built if WiFi

Xbox 360 slim already built if WiFi, so we don't need WiFi adapter again.

5. Kinect ready

I think the main purpose why Microsoft launch Xbox 360 Slim is to combine with Kinect, aside solving 3RRoD problem in old Xbox 360. Using Xbox 360 slim you don't need to use power adapter to use Kinect.
