[UPDATED]Xbox One system update coming Feb 11 Image14

LOOK – A battery indicator for your controller

Marc Whitten has just posted details on Xbox Wire of the next Xbox One System Update that is coming next week.

Here are the highlights from the post:

On February 11, the first update will be delivered to customers who sign into their Xbox One. It features many new improvements – including lots of behind-the-scenes updates for developers building apps and games for Xbox One, several new features we believe Xbox fans will love, stability and product updates to improve the customer experience, and continuous improvements to the quality of Kinect voice so commands become more fluid and responsive over time. While we won’t be going into all of the details of the product updates today, we will be sharing more information soon.

Some of the features you can expect to see on February 11 include:

The ability to see and manage your storage space. With this update, you will find it easy to find how much space your content takes up and better manage your content. You can also control your install lineup and more easily manage your download queue. We’ve separated My Games and My Apps into separate lists, so you can easily create separate queues for both. Now you can pick the order in which you want your content to load and we’ve added a boot progress indicator so you can better track updates while they load.

The battery power indicator is back! You can see it right on the home screen, so you can easily track how much battery life is left on your controller.

And, you will be able to use your USB keyboard with your Xbox One.

These are just a few of the many updates we will be shipping on February 11. We’ll share more details on these and other upcoming features in the coming weeks. We have several surprises in store that we think you’ll love.

March 4 system updates – countdown to “Titanfall”

On March 4, in advance of what is expected to be the biggest game launch of the year, we will be delivering another system update to prepare your Xbox One for “Titanfall.” This update will contain many new features and improvements, most significantly to our party and multiplayer systems.

Good news all round really 👍

finally could never tell how full my battery charger is

The battery was that massive for me because I just keep them on charge but I'm likin the sound of them sortin the party chat!!

No notifications of when my friends get on and what they start playing is driving me crazy. Don't get me wrong there are other things like the battery and my storage space too that make me wanna scream. At least give me the notifications for my favorite list, that would be great! They also need to seperate friends and followers. Right now there is no real clear way to see who are my friends and who are just followers. When you open the lists they are the exact same! I'm glad they are starting to fix things I just hope they also cover the things that make me want to scream lol

That's good the battery thing will be back up. Mine doesn't seem to last two minutes.

Gutted!!

Damn it!

Sucks i was looking forward to it

Just seen this on major Nelson's blog!!

As I noted in my blog post about the December system update, we’ve changed the way these work on Xbox One to reduce the impact on our customers.

For the vast majority of Xbox One owners who use “Instant On” (the low power state that allows you to instantly power up your console by saying “Xbox On”), the console automatically checks for updates when customers turn it off. This means now that we’ve made the February update available, the next time you turn your console off it will take the update during off-peak hours in your local time. All that to say, never fear you’ll see it sometime over the weekend.

As a reminder, here are some of the features you’ll see in this update:

The ability to see and manage your storage space. With this update, you will find it easy to find how much space your content takes up and better manage your content. You can also control your install lineup and more easily manage your download queue. We’ve separated My Games and My Apps into separate lists, so you can easily create separate queues for both. Now you can pick the order in which you want your content to load and we’ve added a boot progress indicator so you can better track updates while they load.
The battery power indicator is back! You can see it right on the home screen, so you can easily track how much battery life is left on your controller.
And, you will be able to use your USB keyboard with your Xbox One.
Thanks!

the update is being sent out today i have not received it yet

My X1 has had power to it all day and nothing so far. We have our TV plugged into one of those smart power strips. When the TV is on everything else in the strip receives power also but when its off everything in the strip has no power at all. It's helped cut some of the waste out of our electric bill. So yeah... just explaining the comment about my x1 having power all day.

got my update

Going to load my xbox up now an see if it updates as it's been
Unplugged for few days.
