Its far from cluttered. Everything is laid out just like the Windows 8 OS. If you are familiar with the Tiles structure it should take no time to get used to. And you can customize where you want to place those tiles for ease of use. Plus the system shows you exactly what you need to say in order for it to recognize your command. Ones you say "Xbox" the voice navigation turns on. Anything that you can operate via voice commands shows up in green text on the screen. All you do is speak the words shown in green and the App opens, channel changes, input changes. It took about 10 minutes to understand how the system works. Once I got past that learning curve, Ive had 0 issues navigating via voice. And the transitions are smooth and flawless. I can navigate the screens faster with voice than with the game controller. The only thing that I could consider no useful at all, is the Xbox OneGuide for the TV.

Its faster to navigate your TV guide via the TV remote unless you like consistently saying, Page Up or Page Down repeatedly to find a show you want to watch.
