Oddly I have two Xbox one S consoles – odd because I’ve never played a game on either and probably never will! The point about cost is interesting and why I replied. Before Christmas I got one from Argos for 229 – with an extra (boxed) controller, Fifa 17 and a Tom Clancy game. Sold the Fifa game (download card), the Tom Clancy game and the extra controller and after ebay/paypal I reckon the console (with the original included controller) cost £163 – mad. This one sits on my USA VPN and does all sorts of American things (very well) – I did by the £30 media remote/keyboard, but that is for me as a non-gamer – I could get that back by selling the original controller.
Bought a second for a different room, same price by no Tom Clancy game – net cost 175 (including original controller but selling the extra controller and Fifa 17). This one is English, and runs SkyGo, and a few other things. The streaming thing (to a Windows 10 PC) is good – but a shame you need two apps (Xbox and Smart Glass) to use it in full (even then Netflix, Sky and the like won’t stream).
Main point is no surprise MS never turn a profit on these things (or previous ones) – for what they are – even outside their main purpose – they are silly cheap. Ugly mind but very good.
The PS3 2nd hand now is still a great buy for what it does – shame it is a little noisy.
