Xbox One owners who have the Instant-on power mode enabled won't have to do anything, as the console will automatically download the update when it becomes available. People using the Energy-saving mode, however, will need to go to Settings -- System to check if the update is available. If it is, you can then select "Update Now" to initiate it.
Hyrb also points out that the New Xbox One Experience's backwards compatibility support for Xbox 360 titles won't start right away. It won't become available until sometime after 12:01 PM PDT / 3:01 PM EDT on November 12, Hryb said.
f you don't want to download the New Xbox One Experience, you don't have to right away. But come November 23, all Xbox One consoles will receive a prompt for a mandatory update if they have not updated to the New Xbox One Experience.
