Can it be used as a monitor for an xBox One S - which outputs 4k over HDMI?
(If there is even an adapter for HDMI male to USB-C male.)

Thanks!

Main reason I don't by iMacs is because I can't use it as a gaming display.
Sticking with MacMini for now but they're not updated very often. :(

Why do they always gimp the "lower end" models? It's so frustrating. The 4K would be amazing if it had the feature set of the 5K. At a minimum, the 4K being limited to USB 2.0 speeds is inexcusable to me and is honestly what's stopping me from purchasing it.

Unfortunately reviews of connectivity seem to leave many questions for the TB computers currently shipping, and other existing users: http://www.apple.com/ca/shop/reviews/MMEL2AM/A/thunderbolt-3-usb-c-to-thunderbolt-2-adapter

Wrong adapter.  A USB-C to DisplayPort cable is all they need.  $19.  The TB-3 to TB-2 adapter is not what s desired.
