    DTS-HD Master Audio

    The xbox one does not support bitstreaming of HD audio formats yet, only uncompressed multichannel LPCM.

    "Native Command Queuing", you mean? So are you wondering if the hard drives connected to the Xbox use NCQ to optimize performance, have less latency during read/writes, and decrease wear on the drive?

    Probably, probably not. It was never really disclosed, as far as I know. This is an optimizing technique for SATA hard drives experiencing server-level amounts of simulataneous read/write requests. Something as esoteric as that probably didn't ring well
    with the marketing department as a key-selling point, so nobody really knows unless if you somehow get in contact with an Xbox engineer.

    This sounds like something that both the HDD firmware and the PCI controller must support. The Xbox has a customized southbridge chip, "X861949-005 T6WD5XBG-0003", which is a vague clue that will probably make this thread appear in web searches now.

    Overall, you're just having big ~40GB games sit on the hard drive and load whenever you're playing them. If what I (kinda) know about NCQ is on the right track, the application here is negligible and possibly overkill to warrant NCQ being a supported optimization
    feature. If it's not supported on the Xbox One mainboard, your hard drive (which I assume supports NCQ) will just operate normally without using NCQ.

    But you should totally get a USB 3.0 external HDD, as by some ironic twist, it's marginally faster than the SATA2-connected internal hard drive due to slightly higher bandwidth provided by USB 3.0, and it's always nice to have plenty of storage.

    Bluetooth headset connectivity on Xbox one S (All Digital)

    The Xbox One console, does not support Bluetooth, hence why the headsets do not work on their consoles. You either use a wireless headset, this uses the Xbox wireless technology to connect to the Xbox or connect a wired headset to the 3.5mm headphone jack
    that is in the bottom of the controller.

    Does the Xbox one X have Bluetooth

    The Xbox One X does not have the Bluetooth technology build into it.

    The controllers however does as you can use them on a mobile phone and on PC if you have the Bluetooth dongle.

    Wireless headsets uses a different type of technology to connect to the console.

    Xbox 360 users left behind?

    It's like with everything else, as time goes on so does the support for it, especially with technology.

    I have a Xbox series s, and I tried to buy resident evil 4 remake but it says not compatible on my device.

    Xbox one s is NOT the Series S

    It does not have a one in the name

    And you are talking about 12 years difference in technology
