I was looking at the series s but no disc drive was a deal breaker for me, it does have some better quality of life features I'd say but as someone who enjoys playing older games, having the disc drive is a must. Don't like having to buy all my games digital, plus you can save lots of money with physical games. Also threw a 1tb ssd in it too so the load times are no longer an issue

No disc drive is a deal breaker for me, all the other specs resolution frame rates hdd speed all become completely irrelevant at that point.

The Xbox One X launched with features ahead of its time. For example, HDMI 2.1, Freesync Premium Pro with LFC and HDR (feature that doubles the frames on the screen with low latency and better colours). So if the GPU is at 30fps, the LFC will set to 60fps, if it is 60fps, it will set to 120fps in the display compatible with this range 30hz-120hz and technology, look, this work only 120hz settings. It also has Dolby Vision, Atmos, HDR10... The One X only need of one SSD to be better and the correct tv to show all power and features. Only in 2023 we have tvs with these technologys and accesive price.

I've Had a XBONE1X since 03/24/2020 and STILL use it.
I bought a SERIES "S" in May of Got rid of it 5 months later just didn't enjoy it as I thought I
XBONE1X does EVERYTHING I want and need.

[FilipeAbreu]

So I just got my Series X yesterday, jumping from the One S I can’t tell you enough how much better it is. My performance in game has improved because the game is just more responsive. That being said, new Gen is worth it, whether it’s the series S or the X

[Mrtallharshthakur]

If xbox one x had a modern cpu series s would be in trouble.

[AlexRodriguezzz]

I'm coming from the One X and even before buying the Series S I knew I'd be in for a treat, and boy was I right back then, I've had the series S for a couple of months and I Will never go back to the One X, it's just too slow when loading games, quick resume is a heaven sent and that nvme ssd crazy speed (4.5Gbps) is just incredible. The series S is a marvel of engineering.

[eRwn]

Pulled the trigger on a Series S. Upgraded from the OG XBox One. It's awesome. So small, quiet and graphics are incredible.

[Averagedude-mifl]

I have Series s and am fairly happy with it. For 300 bucks it’s a good system. You will pay extra for accessories sure, but I can tell you as someone who has been a pc gamer as well(I had an amd ryzen 5, 16gb ram and an rx 6600xt to give you an idea). With the specs above my pc should have been more comparable to series x or ps5 I’d think.

That said I’ve had the series s console since late 2020. For what it is, the graphics for the series s being the low end console are actually pretty decent (I’m playing on a 65 inch). I actually sold my 6600xt, just wasn’t using it a lot. But I’m happy enough with the series s. Just remember to budget extra for an external hard drive. I would recommend a USB one though and not one of the expensive factory ones.

I still use the OneX regularly for the likes of RDR2, metro exodus, final fantasy 15 etc as I value the visual experience of these games and the oneX knocks that side of things out of the park.. I then go to my SeriesS for gamepass and absolutely everything else now because it just makes everything feel so dammed good, I love it way more than anything I've ever had before. Yes the SeriesX would be nice eventually but their is just something about the crazy neat little S that really scratches a geek itch or something.

[Aboleo]

I have the One X and gamepass ultimate and just got the PS5 3 days ago at retail price from PS direct. I have not owned a PlayStation since PS2. If I was a new buyer who doesn't have any of the previous generation consoles I'd definitely go for Series X or S for gamepass alone.

[patlacroix]

Just got a OneX on the cheap last week! I like it alot, especially for playing older disc in my 20 yo xbox collection! Will get a series S also in the near future!

[ArchNephalym]

You are incredibly under rated! Keep it up brodie, you will definitely shine soon!

Series S, no question about it. I upgraded from an Xbox One X a couple years ago and I'm so happy about it. Way faster console, almost non existent loading times, quick resume, smart delivery, but most importantly framerate. That was so better it's hard to go back. Storage space was also not a big deal for me because I had an external HDD laying around so I use that one for original Xbox, 360 and One games.
Only bad thing about the Series S it's that it only uses the regular Xbox One versions of Xbox One games, instead of the enhanched One X versions:
And admittedly I miss the disc drive, that's true. But that's the only two things I don't like about it.

I personally own both of these consoles and I'd say they are really evenly matched. When I got my One X, I quickly replaced the hard drive with an SSD as you mentioned and this cut the load times in HALF if not more. I'm a little picky when it comes to visual quality and FPS in games and an even match is ideal but not always something you can have. This is a big reason why I like owning both of these consoles because when I'm playing a more competitive game requiring that high framerate I'll use the Series S, but on the other hand, I like to keep my story and arcade type games on my One X for the beautiful 4k support which surprises me to this day how well the One X keeps up, there's even some competitive games that are much better on the One X like Battlefield 1, one of my favorite games, that supports 4k 60 one the One X but only 1080p on the Series S! The only thing left to desire on the One X is ray tracing. at the end of the day I have a PC that's more powerful than both of these consoles combined lol but most of my physical and digital games that I still enjoy playing I only own on xbox, and its always fun to play on a console from time to time. Great vid I know I'm late by a year but I just thought I'd drop my experience in the comments.

[ytmBHyUkUq]

In my opinion the Xbone x is still the better console. It may not have quick resume, but it still has better gpu performance, accessible apps, and 4k blu ray playback which is a big plus. Also an SSD upgrade for the One X is rather cheap these days, so games and UI should feel faster. Series S has some RT, but the tradeoff is less visual performance in which I feel isn't worth it.

[christoffermyrdal]

The SSD alone makes lots of difference and the 4K upscaling that Series S is very good. But the Series S was always ment to replace One S, while One X should be replaced by Series X (Given that you do play on a 4K TV or you're used to/expecting the best of the best.

[MudSluggerBP]

I have both, Series S for mostly GamePass and One X for enhanced backwards compatible disc gaming.

[gamerdadcoco]

I find those who say the One X is better to get rather than the newer Series S really ridiculous. Just the fact that future games are sure to come to Series S while they will eventually stop coming to One X in the near future should make a buyer lean towards the newer generation console.

[dank]

All I know is when I went on ebay or Facebook marketplace, I saw a lot more people offloading their Xbox series s consoles compared to the One X or Series X. And the one x is holding value and selling for prices near the series s when it's on sale. That pretty much answered my question on which one to get.
