Microsoft brings Hardware Store to Xbox One Insiders
After having a proper store on Xbox One, Microsoft is now getting the Hardware Store to Xbox One console. Available for Xbox One Insiders in Preview Alpha & Beta users, it can be checked out in the Xbox Insider Hub. You can order, and get your peripherals delivered at your door step. That said, this is available in US, CA, AU, and NZ. So stay calm if you aren’t in those countries.
While I haven’t checked out, well obviously, I am assuming they are just Xbox One peripherals including controllers. It would be wise if Microsoft could get the store onboard. This news was shared by Brad Rossetti @WorkWombatman who is a member of Xbox Preview Program.

That said, it’s a good move in as a whole to highlight hardware around Xbox One right on the hub just like how Microsoft is trying to push the games. This is one of the undocumented changes which Microsoft rolled out two days ago.
That said, in a recent news Xbox One has been discontinued, and if you are worried that Xbox One will keep getting the update, and new features don’t worry about it. Except for the hardware bump for 4K gaming, and 4K media consumption there is not much of difference when it comes to gaming on Xbox One. So you won’t be losing out much.
