I feel like this console is perfect for me as a college student. It’s cheaper, smaller, digital (no carrying around games), and I don’t need 4K with the tiny tv I’ll have in my dorm.
So far nothing but good times with the Series S, My library has nothing under 60fps and I couldn't be happier. Microsoft deff. stepped it up big time, Keep it going! (Also I have at least 5 120 fps games on there, G5, Halo MCC, Rogue Galaxy, Fortnite and Dirt 5, all run smooth as butter bruh).
So glad you were able to get your Series S especially with the crazy shipping that happened! I’m loving my Series X but I might end up getting the Series S to bring with me for my other family members that don’t want to play on switch. The design is growing on me! Lol
@@cvo7617 it depends. If you currently have the Xbox Series S and fine with how it is, I would keep it. If you’re not happy with it, I’d get the Xbox Series X if you’re able to. My main reasons for getting the Series X is that I have a 4K TV and most of my games are physical copies. Unless, if you have everything digital, Series S would be good. I know the storage might be issue, but you can upgrade it.
Lucky you, I still have to wait all the way until January or February or probably march to get this thing. Tried several times to get it on pre-order the pre-orders was hijacked and I couldn't get none. You are very lucky
Nice! I like your channel name :) I just bought the Xbox Series X. Hope you have been enjoying the xbox these past 2 years. Xbox is a great system, and lots of fun.
Auyup I’m curious Marc (considering that you didn’t mention it in the video) what was your reasoning for going with the series S over the series X. What do you mean like custom? As in limited edition versions? Thanks again for the video anyway, thoroughly enjoyed.
Thanks for the tips. i use an 2 tb external on series s so should be good and more than a seres x comes with. Im happy i got the digital edition xbox series as i don't buy games phisichally so often. it looks so good on lg cx 4k 120 fps. i also bought a seperate hdmi 2.1 cable because xbox recommend it to play games in 4k 120 fps. i know there is only a few amount of games released that support 4k 120 fps but maybe in the future there will be more. Liked and subscribed!
Hey! Good review. I may have to ask you something really important for me, is the original recorder for this(without capture card) good in your opinion? Because I'm a content creator and I really need to record stuff, but I won't buy a capture card. Do you think the original default recording software is good?
You will know if its a 4k 2.1 HDMI cable if its labeled as a High Speed cable if I'm not mistaken (correct me on that). It should say it right below the ends of the cable.
@Papoooki yooo this shit if fire i just got it and it's pretty impressive at 120 fps and bro don't get a ps4 they are loud as jet engines and broken vacuums so I recommend this
Mine comes saturday :) it was expected next friday at first according to the Walmart website just goes to show life can change in an instant in this case a package containing my xbox s
I bought ithr series s compared to the older gens it just seems a tad faster at points only thing I noticed . And it’s small as heck can literally place it on your arm lol
I’m sold on the S except for the storage part. Let’s say i have 2k21 and Cod and then i wanna download cold war can i move 2k21 to the external hard drive and leave it there and exchange it when i want to play it? I don’t wanna but the SSD cause it’s so much money that i’d rather get the x with that money.
My question is, does your saved games get transferred over to the series s? What I mean is, I have ffx digital version on my Xbox one, and I’ve gotten pretty far on it. Will my data transfer over as well, because I really don’t want to start all over on it. So, I’m just asking if the saved data can be transferred over.?
do you have to move game from external hard drive everytime you want to play a game that isnt on the xbox or it can play all games inside external harddrive without moving to xbox
Hey Joel I have the BENQ EX3203R 32inch curved, which you have showed off before and I got the series x. How come I’m not able to put it on 1440p/120hz??? It’s a 144hz up to 4K. I don’t get it.
@@Onepieceistheworstanime if you had an xbox series X then I would recommend buying a new tv that supports 4k but if you have a 1080p tv then that's perfect for the xbox series s.
@@Onepieceistheworstanime The 1440p video will be reduced in size to 1080p, but because it started as a higher resolution, the result will be similar to, and perhaps superior to, antialiasing. ... It is not normal for a TV to accept an input resolution which is higher than its actual display size, though lower is not a problem. So it's fine to say that keeping your old 1080p tv is the better choice in my point of view. Unless there is a really *HUGE* difference like buying an xbox series X which supports 4k, then you're fine to get a new TV, but 1440p isn't that much of a different between the 1080p in a fact they are so similar.
Nice platform compact , cheap , give access to a big library, performance similar to the ps4 brò with updated architectures, textures, effects Lacks of an handle.
Like I mean I have the series s, but depends what one you had before Xbox or PlayStation. If you had the ps4 then get the ps5 but if you had the xbox one then get the series s
I’d say well at least for me specifically I managed to get a disc ps5 and it will be my main but I wanted to give Xbox another go so I managed again to snag one of these so I’d say ps5 and if you want a little Xbox too this would be a good lil side piece to your ps5

yoo we have the same situation going on you right
There still is 4K on the xbox series s just not advertised or designed to
@@ninjaxgeckos7457 Upscaled 4k. So basically 1440p, but upscaled to "4k", its done by a technique called checkerboaring. Pretty neat tbh

Your Xbox series s does support 120 fps you just need to change the resolution to 1080 P
I just picked up the series s for Xmas this year I was due for an upgrade from the Xbox one great video
mine just came in today, this’ll compliment my PS5 nicely

Oh hi mark ,
What a story ,mark . It seems to me you are the expert mark
If your internet goes down can you still play games installed on the drive ?
Yes games play from the drive. That's why it's better to transfer than deleting or uninstalling games to save space.
@@Marcthegeek to play is it offline or online

I will get one in two months i am so exited
I got one for Christmas
Just watching xbox series videos until my series s comes...

@rs7997 of course
I got the PS5 and xbox series X now i want the xbox series S
Ir rich???
I Think I Wanna Buy The Series X In The Future When Its Cheaper. Because Im Used To Buying Physical Games.
I bought ithr series s compared to the older gens it just seems a tad faster at points only thing I noticed . And it’s small as heck can literally place it on your arm lol
Great Video
That’s next gen Xbox right?
Can you delete your Xbox account on your old Xbox without deleting it on the new Xbox?
thsi is a really old comment but yes, you can delete ur account off ur old xbox.
Will I lose all my progress and will I have to download my games again when I buy the series s
I believe all your saves are saved in the cloud, so no, you dont lose them and the games will have to be re-downloaded if its not in an external hd.
@@fishover2077 do you know were i could buy a external hd
@FBI nice thanks for the advice
not a better feelin than setting up a new console
I’m sold on the S except for the storage part.

How is your internet so god damn fast it takes me like 5-10 hours to download a 25GB game
These are our longer for sale

I’d prefer this then the big one just would have to buy a hard drive
The xbox series x uses a SSD not a hard drive
The series s also uses an SSD
I know this is old but mine comes in 2 days baby

do you have to move game from external hard drive everytime you want to play a game that isnt on the xbox or it can play all games inside external harddrive without moving to xbox
