PlayStation 5 vs Xbox Series X | Which One Should You Buy?

Should you buy the PlayStation 5 or the Xbox Series X? I've owned both, specially the series S and even though the PlayStation 5 is a lot more of a Next-Gen console, I think gamepass is definitely hard to beat for the Xbox.

For me Playstation vs. Xbox always have been like iPhone vs. Samsung.. We all know that Playstation is more popular and most of the people want it like iPhone, but Xbox keep up with great experience and features like Samsung. Personally I'm from Xbox Team. Great videos as always Andres!

[gabrielmazabuka]

I like how you kept it real n came out n said you're on team Xbox 💚

[ezioahmet]

Always love these videos. After playing with an Xbox controller for a couple years with my PC, having a PS4 Pro for years, and then recently getting the PS5. PS5 controller is fantastic. I liked the Xbox controller for comfort more than the PS4 (except I like PS joystick layout more), but the PS5 fixed that and made it more comfortable, along with my preferred joystick layout. I'm a PS guy at heart, but I don't like how PS made it so hard to get the PS5 for the last two years. But they're becoming more common over the last couple months thankfully. And playing the initial learning on PS5 that shows you the controller capabilities is awesome. For exclusive games, PS has the best exclusives. If you have a gaming PC, then you can play any Xbox exclusive (obviously Xbox is a cheaper option than a gaming PC, since they can get expensive fast)

I just came here to say Team PlayStation 🎉

Gamepass definitely amazing, but one thing to point out if you have a gaming computer - all the xbox games are available on PC. which makes PS5 the logical choice for the Sony exclusives, at the same time PS Plus subscription is also amazing with tons and tons of games to play (Spiderman, Ghost of Tsushima etc etc )

Have them both though this is the first PlayStation I've owned since the original (though I briefly had a PS4 Pro for about 2 months before I got the PS5. I wanted to test the Sony waters first). They are both great consoles and run games very similarly. Their respective exclusives make the difference and I still lean more to the XBOX side as I feel their online play, Game Pass, free cloud game storage etc. are superior. Sony does some nice things as well and the two are very similar overall. I don't think anyone buying one over the other would be dissatisfied with their purchase. I also have the Series S that I travel with and it's great as well and I would tell people to not fear they are missing out on something by saving some money and buying one (well you will be wanting more storage at some point). Image quality across them all are very similar and though Digital Foundry can nitpick the heck out of any games image quality the point is you'll be having fun even if you don't have as much grass to look at or the picture isn't razor sharp. Great time to be gaming with all the new consoles, their speed and quality of life improvements over last gen cannot be overstated.

Bro your quality, creativity, uniqueness, efforts
Why are you still here, you need to be top tech reviewer

I own both but play the SX way more because of gamepass and I like the SX controller way more because it's more comfortable in my hand, it's also great with emulators.

[bustingyewls]

I prefer the x box controller so I play madden, 2K, fifa on there along with halo. Which is the main reason I got x box and Apex from time to time but I playing the exclusive games on PS5. It might not feel as comfortable but it actually feels next gen. Love playing Spider-Man and god of war on PS5 and so many others. The answer is just get both lol

[omgxitsxcody]

I have one of each. Got the series x on launch day and was able to get a PS5 in Feb 2021 from PlayStation direct order, so got lucky. They are both great. I find that trying to play CoD is better on Xbox because it seems like Sonys servers have lag issues. Buuuut PlayStation has the better games. If I can get a game in both consoles I usually will get it on the Xbox since I a series x in the gaming room, as well as a series s in the living room. But honestly, my steam deck has been giving both of my consoles a run for their money, since I can play the same games (mostly) and sit in the living room while my wife watches tv. She doesn’t like that I play video games so being able to be with her in the same room makes it easier for her to cope lol

[Kruz.Lee]

I’ve had the PS5 for a few months now but I’m definitely going to buy the Series X this upcoming summer for the game pass. Can’t wait to compare them side by side. I can look up these comparisons all I want, but nothing is more truthful than your OWN personal experience. 🔥

[GokuDUchiha]

I never such quality video like this for consoles ❤…luv u bro keep doing 🎉…camera shots, place, lighting all awesome and ur voice also not yet boring

[Gamer_pro]

I like both xbox and PlayStation but I can seem to decide which one I should get first

[chapstickherman]

I own both Xbox series x and ps5 love them both💚💙 Xbox supports dolby vision gaming and majority multi plat games run better with higher resolution and framerates. Xbox has a game changing feature called quick resume and backwards compatiblity with physical discs and FPS boost and auto HDR for games all the way up to the original xbox, which ps5 lacks. Gamepass drops new 1st party and some third party games day 1 and has a solid game catalogue better than ps extra. Controller Ps5 is better and more next gen than xbox but adaptive triggers are mostly gimmick not all games use them and sometimes they get annoying. I disable them when playing shooters online. Xbox controller is more comfortable feeling especially the elite series 2 controller. Only reason I have my PS5 is because of the amazing and awesome 1st party exclusives xbox sadly is missing. Only ones I like on xbox are gears of war games, forza games and state of decay.

[EpiCz_Izzy]

I have both but I’ve enjoyed my PS5 and especially the Dualsense more than the SX.

[paradiseb]

I can’t decide which one to get. I can only chose one. I like ps exclusives but i like xbox especially the controller eventhough the durability of the bumpers and d-pad is not great. I still don’t u deratand why is gamepass better than ps plus especially now in 2023 i’ve seen ps plus has ALOT of great games especially the AAA titles. My heart says xbox but brain says ps5

[PinkRangerBeats]

Wow! I have both the series s and PS5. I love the PS5 UI and I do think PS Plus should be marketed more, however if you are looking for an experience similar to a gaming PC, go with Xbox. They have keyboard and mouse support for more games, and even have a legit browser, Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Literally stopped using my laptop and just browse the internet on my series s lbs. In addition, game pass is a great value and you even get a great value on games with Xbox gold!

Ultimately, it’s up to your personal preferences. If you love single player games then go with PS5. Xbox might have a slighter edge on multiplayer triple A titles tho.

Hope this helps😁

Your production quality is insane you deserve way more of a following. Been team Xbox my whole life basically besides when my parents got me a ps2 as a kid. I now have both consoles, a switch, and a pc. 💀😅

[WeAreNotExperts]

I don’t have the Series X, but I do have the PS5 and Series S. I honestly think the Series X is more worth it than the PS5 for most people.

[jordanhenry]

Great video, first time watcher and I've subscribed. I like how impartial you were with both consoles and that intro was great.

I was a PS man my whole life. Had ps1 up to ps4 but decided to get Series X simply because I was bored of PS. Loving the series X, prefer the look and the controller compared to PS5.
Series X has some great games on gamepass but PS5 definitely has the upper hand in terms of exclusives imo. However, having triple A titles on day 1 on Gamepass is fantastic.

Thinking about buying a PS5 down the line in 23 purely to be able to play the games I cannot get on Xbox.
For me, I was done with the console wars when p4 and X1 came out. Realistically the consoles have always been very close in terms of power and there really isn't much between them, even to this day.

It's more about the experience of playing with your friends. Currently I only have 4 friends on Xbox (because all my friends have PS5/4) but luckily those 4 friends are usually online lol
