A disc-less white version of the Xbox One is currently in testing at Microsoft, it is being claimed.
The Verge (http://www.theverge.com/2014/1/29/5359540/xbox-one-dashboard-update-white-console-release-date) has verified claims made on NeoGaf (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=760013) that the platform holder is testing a $399 digital-only version of the console, although “it's unclear if [it] will make it to market.
While the disc-less claim has been seconded, the leaker also made a host of other claims, the merit of which you can decide for yourself:
* Crackdown 3 due in 2016, with news unlikely to be released this year
* Halo Anniversary 2 will be 1080p but 60fps support is “iffy” and will include Halo 5 beta access
* Forza Horizon scheduled for this autumn with “super sexy weather system” and “1080p open-world”
* Sunset Overdrive and Quantum Break also due this autumn
* White Xbox One and Titanfall Limited Edition hardware SKUs incoming
* Gears of War not expected to release until late 2016
