It's a cluttered mess with terrible design choices.
The web browser is pretty bad too.

The UI is very functional and easy to navigate, except the games and apps section being an app there are very little issues

I know right? I hate Xbox so much that I own a 360 and my Xbone arrived today.
Not liking a terrible UI doesn't mean I hate Xbox you moron.

It's a cluttered mess, and they made everything an app for God knows what reason.

Win8 is a tablet OS and it should have stayed like that.

Meh. Designed around teh Kinect. Which they bet hard on this gen. They've been steadily improving it though.

MS is a bit behind the times in the UI department. Apple/Android/etc. are all a bit more user friendly and sleeker than Windows. That and they need new coloring. That rainbow hodgepodge is becoming an eye sore.

Luckily software is relatively easy to change. They're stuck with the VCR hardware design.

Win8 is close to what the 360 had been using for a while, and the X1 OS is very similar other than the silly Games and Apps app.

Go back and use a 360 with the launch OS, and tell me that the X1's OS isn't an improvement

Whenever I'm at home and I want to check my messages or change settings, I reach for the home button again because it doesn't feel like a main menu to me. Getting to places is a chore, unlike on the 360.

It really is.  On the 360, you could just press the home button, browse through a menu of "Friends, Games, Movies and Apps " and you're good.

On the Xbox One, it's a fucking chore to get through.  I end up feeling very frustrated by the time I find the menu I actually want.

Like Keyu said, it's designed for the Kinect.  But for non-kinect users like me, its a pain in the ass.  And I really dislike the Windows Tablet dashboard settings, it's really ugly.

Even the blades dashboard wasn't as bad as the Xbone's OS.
And the 360's current dashboard isn't an overly cluttered pile of shit. The Xbox Guide is much better than what the Xbone has.

MS have gotten pretty bad at designing UIs. Let's just hope they stop being retarded for Win10.

What's pathetic is that I had to go onto YouTube to find out how to delete games. With the 360 it's straight forward. What I also love is just all the steps you have to do.
Quote
1.Start from Home (press the Xbox button on your controller to go Home).
2.Go to My games and apps.
3.Highlight the content that you want to uninstall.
4.Press the Menu button on your controller.
5.Select Manage Game or Manage App.
6.Press the Menu button on your controller again.
7.Select Uninstall.
What the fuck? Deleting a game shouldn't be that complicated and having that many steps. Microsoft sure went full retard with the UI for this thing.

Are you fucking serious.

It's enough of a chore getting rid of that "Snap" feature (ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE IN A FUCKING GAME) and half of the game screen is dominated by the "party" screen....but now it's a puzzle to delete games?

360:  Go to System Storage, go to games/apps, press Y on game, click A for Accept.

XB1:  Do a bunch of shit for five minutes and you might be able to make it to step 2.

Also with the 360 checking your messages or friends list is a hell of a lot easier and faster.

1. There is a memory section in settings on the X1
2. Not my fault you are incapable of exploring a very, very simple OS
3. I agree with you on messages, there should be a proper inbox easily available, although you can find all your messages in friends
4. The friends list has a whole section, which is updated and can be clicked to immediately access the app, easy as fuck. Or using Kinect...
5. The faster element is null for me, I just use Kinect, so the new OS is very fast for me

2. Not my fault you are incapable of exploring a very, very simple OS
Lel. How is having all of those steps just to delete a game simple? What was a simple OS is the one the 360 uses. For the deleting a game thing like I said it's a lot easier on the 360 than this so called "very, very simple" OS the Xbone uses. Also it's not because I'm "incapable". It's because MS decided to use a OS for the Xbox that's hard to figure out on your own. People shouldn't have to go onto YouTube just to figure out something that should be simple like deleting a game. 
Quote
4. The friends list has a whole section, which is updated and can be clicked to immediately access the app, easy as fuck.
With the 360 if you're playing a game you can simply hit the center button and select friends. With the Xbox it's about as fast but there's a few more steps involved.
Quote
Or using Kinect...
Which is the mistake they did with Windows 8. That OS was designed with touch screen devices in mind and not PC's. There was so much backlash for it that Windows 8.1 came out as a free update. It's the same mistake with the Xbone. They designed the OS for Kinect and did a bad job without using the Kinect. Using the UI for the Xbone should be easy either way. Like I said I shouldn't had to use YouTube just to find out how to delete games because the UI for that is so badly designed.

And they have actually made it more functional since launch, believe it or not
