Not only that it's 40% smaller in comparison to the old Xbox but the controllers are now customized to how you want it....that's right that means you can design your very own controller....with tons of different colours to choose from and also even have your name on it too so then this is your own personal customized controller.

They have added new features such as:

Clubs on Xbox Live.

Arena on Xbox Live

Cross-play.

Cortana on Xbox One.

Language Region Independence.

Microsoft will launch two new consoles in the next two years: Xbox One S and Project Scorpio

Ok so in light of Sony's press conference was there any mention of any hardware...hardly any...but it was games, games and more games. While the Xbox was more in favour of the hardware side to it....Sony took a different approach. They did mention about the PlayStation VR which will be out on 13th October and Sony’s $399 VR system will have 50 launch titles from now till the end of the year.

Although Sony didn't mention it at E3 they did confirm that PS4 Neo is real and they are currently working on it. There has been no set price or release date as of yet and we will have to wait for Sony to mention more news & updates later on. The PS4 code named Neo will have 4K Resolution Support and Improved Graphics.
