While both the Switch and PS4 (and even the One at launch) lacks backwards compatibility entirely, the One embraces it like no other console has.

Today we talk about that, an amazing hidden gem from the original Xbox, and how awesome that game is. But there is a niche the One fills that its contemporaries skip out entirely on: backwards compatibility. The PlayStation 4 provides your home media wants as strongly as the One, with attractive exclusive features and games besides, as well as a generous “get free games when you subscribe to our online multiplayer” scheme, something the One mirrors with its Games with Gold feature. Many players have noted however, that this is not a niche that needs filling.

Lacking the exceptional first party support and third party exclusives of the PlayStation 4, the Nintendo Switch, or even the long-passed Wii U, the Xbox One carves its niche out as a competent home media center and place to play your workhorse multi-platform games. The Xbox One is in an interesting place in the current games generation.
