: So far, I have had very few problems with my commands being recognized. Maybe
: 1 out of 100 go unrecognized. And the Kinect microphone is impressive.
: I've never had to raise my voice above a natural speaking volume, no
: matter the sound volume coming out of my television, which is about six
: inches behind the Kinect. And when I'm gaming at night with the volume
: low, I can speak just barely above a whisper and it still hears me.
I'd go even one step further -- My Xbox One hears me much better the softer I speak. When I raise my voice it has trouble understanding me, but when I talk at a normal volume or even whisper it gets the command almost 100% of the time. And this is regardless of what the TV volume is set at.
I think it just has an attitude and doesn't like being yelled at.
