    Discontinued Kinect adapter means microsoft lies about compatability


    Here are the "benefits" of upgrading to an xbox one s according to Microsoft. Note under accessories it says ALL

    From the support website:
    https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/xbox-one/console/moving-from-original-xbox-one-to-xbox-one-s-console

    "Benefits of upgrading to Xbox One X or Xbox One S

    Besides the smaller size and the addition of ultra-high-definition 4K/HDR capabilities, here’s what you'll get when you upgrade to Xbox One X or Xbox One S.

    Vertical positioning

    Unlike the original Xbox One, both Xbox One X and Xbox One S allow vertical as well as horizontal positioning. Vertical positioning requires a stand, however. Not every console bundle includes one, so you may need to buy it separately.

    Accessories

    Apart from the unique vertical stands needed for Xbox One S and Xbox One X, all Xbox One accessories work with all Xbox One consoles."

    BRING BACK THE KINECT ADAPTER

    No Xbox One Remotes or Kinect adapters anywhere!!!

    Ugh, that's really sad about the Kinect adapters. Also I was talking about the Xbox One remotes not controllers. Are those discontinued as well?

    no more kinect adapters

    Same for me. I've purchased an Xbox One S to replace my original Xbox One with Kinect. The port disappeared and the adapter is no more available .... Kinect is useless now.

    A shame, Microsoft. A simple adapter !!!

    After Lumia Windows phone, kinect, groove, soon xbox and windows discontinued ?

    You failed to include this little tidbit from that link -

    If you plan to use a Kinect sensor with Xbox One X or Xbox One S, you'll need a Kinect Adapter. For details, see
    How to use an Xbox One Kinect Sensor with Xbox One X or Xbox One S.

    Or you can look at this -

    Compatible with everything Xbox One

    Xbox One X | Xbox

    Xbox One accessories work with Xbox One X

    The Xbox One accessories you’ve got now (or have got your eye on) work with Xbox One X *2

    No hassle. Just play.

    *2 - Excludes the Xbox One S stand that works exclusively with the Xbox One S.

    Xbox Kinect Adapter (sold separately) required for Kinect on Xbox One S and Xbox One X.

    I'm not finding where they lied here regarding the compatibility.

    Kinect debacle

    Sadly the kinect has been discontinued.

    Hardware isn't backwards compatible as well. Unless it's a headset with an adapter.

    Sorry about the situation.

    Xbox one Kinect adapter

    Microsoft lies and deceit. I bought an xb1x and there was no adapter in the box. I cannot use my Kinect. This is BS. I thought $40 was overpriced for an adapter, $300 is absurd. Thank you Microsoft for screwing me over with no warning of discontinuing the
    adapter as well. You said the XB1X would support all of our accessories including the Kinect. Now you're going back on your word. You owe us all adapters the same as the Xboxone S.

    Xbox one S Kinect not compatible???

    I am very sorry about this, but Microsoft has decided to stop support for the kinect. Because of this the prices for the kinect adapters have rose due to Xbox discontinuing that item.

    No Xbox One Remotes or Kinect adapters anywhere!!!

    The Kinect and Kinect adapter are discontinued and what's available is going to be expensive.

    Xbox One controllers are available at most common retailers, so that shouldn't be an issue.
