Earlier today Microsoft reviled that Kinect 2 won't have to be always on contrary to popular belief. Instead: “if you don’t want the Kinect sensor on while playing games or enjoying your entertainment, you can pause Kinect.”
And “When the system is off, it’s only listening for the single voice command – ‘Xbox On’” and even that can be turned off, though “Some apps and games may require Kinect functionality to operate, so you’ll need to turn it back on for these experiences”.
This just goes to show you shouldn't write of the X1 until we know more about it!
