I feel like the S is such an underrated value. I tend to game on a monitor most of the time these days and if it weren't for my old physical library I think the S would have been the better choice for me
I felt that way when I bought it at launch when it comes to physical. Thing is, I was on a PS4 and never got an XB1 last gen. Most of the great games on that system (xb1) are on Game Pass, and in the 360 days Games with Gold was pretty damn good. My 1st day library was pretty decent, games sales are awesome, and USB SSD's can be pretty cheap and reliable if you look. Would have gotten an X, but content with saving a few bucks and getting the S and a PS5.
10gb that’s ddr6 at 300 is insane… even the xsx and ps5 have ram 16gb with that ddr6 a speed you don’t even see high end pcs with most are ddr5 or 4 at most and yet at 500 dollars that’s insane. The Xbox’s s and x can emulate pretty dam well too!
It's a common misconception that Series S can only render up to 1440p but actually there are many less demanding titles that play at 4k native. Hades, Ori, Mass Effect Legendary. Good video overall.
the series s is extremely underrated. the value for money is insane and there is minimum graphical difference in series x/s games. i got mine launch day and its one of my best purchases yet
@@semlali06 it's enough for many people but if it's not, use a external ssd/hdd. And memory = ram Storage= ssd space. Stop pretending you know what ur talking about
@@semlali06 "Memory" is how non-techy people used to refer to Storage many years ago, but they are extremely different things. My PC has 4TB of Nvme storage because I'm an enthusiast/builder, but the built in storage of my fiancée's series S is never an issue because she doesn't play the games with huge file sizes like CoD Warzone. For anyone that plays games on a 1080p 120hz/1440p 120hz (or even a 60hz 4k TV), the series S is an amazing budget pick. The 512gb SSD is a limiting factor if you play more than 5 bigger games simultaneously, but it isn't an issue for most casual gamers. However, the Seagate expansion slots are terrible value, so if anyone NEEDS the storage, Series X is definitely the way to go. If you compare the performance of a Series S with the equivalent PC, you will see how crazy it is to say the Series S isn't some of the most incredible value we have ever seen in the world of tech.
@@JustS0meK1dd Comparing Series S to gaming PC can also be applied to Series X/PS5 making all of them a good value over PCs. Comparing Series S with Series X/PS5, I believe the latter consoles do provide more values over Series S. I think Series S is good as an entry console but if you are wanting a more future proofed console, Series X/PS5 are going to provide much more now and even in the future.
@@hanseulchoi3617 That is a completely valid viewpoint, but it only applies to frequent/hardcore gamers that are using it as their main console (on a 4k 60/120hz tv). For people that already have 120hz+ PC monitors at 1080p and 1440p, the series S makes a lot of sense. My fiancée uses one on one of my old 1080p 144hz monitors and gets solid framerates with very good visuals for the £200 I paid for the series S, plus she can use my game pass ultimate subscription for no extra cost. It doesn't look bad on a 4k 60hz TV after upscaling (depending on game), but if you played on a 4k TV primarily, I would definitely spring for the extra GPU power of the X. No console is future proof, just like no PC system is. You should just buy depending on the display output you have available. 1080p is 4 times easier to run than 4k, so having 3 times less GPU power isn't an issue (especially when the CPU is very similar).
I love the monolithic approach to the Xbox designs this generation. They blend well with almost any room you put them in, can be comfortably oriented in multiple ways, and they have a generous amount of perforations for airflow. Simple, clean, and elegant.
While your waiting for a 30 series GPU, the Series S is a great choice to pass the time. The reason I jumped on Xbox is for a feature that is heavily underrated and that is Play Anywhere. It's the only console where you get games that give you two copies for the Xbox and PC so when you upgrade your PC you won't have to purchase a separate PC copy of the game. It really puts other greedy publishers and Sony's take on "Dual Entitlement" to shame.
My problem with Microsoft will be their overly DRM obsessed policies. I many times like buying physical games because i like owning games fully and not need internet connection to play etc. With Xbox that is impossible while Sony and Nintendo offer that so i always end up buying my games for Sony and Nintendo consoles. For digital services like their Game Pass then they are fine but not for actually buying games. That probably means that if you don't care that much about the power of the Xbox Series X then you are probably better of buying this one here because there isn't much point in buying a disk for an Xbox console.
@@SIPEROTH I wouldn't worry about it, unless you typically play without internet, that isn't a major issue you should consider when buying games. If you're internet does go down for weeks, you can always connect with your phone so that whatever your console needs it gets through your phone service. It really isn't a big deal
@@timmyboy99 Nope, untrue. Game console services shut down with time. Therefore unless you can play what you bought offline, what you are buying is a long term rental.
@@SIPEROTH I highly doubt the drm issue will be in effect 20 years from now, I'm sure game companies would've found a way to fix it by then. I doubt they're just gonna let the service shut down and not allow you to play your games, maybe ubisoft will idk
I know it's not a super demanding game, but a really good game/games to check out would be the Ori games(Ori and the Blind Forest, and Ori and the Will of the Wisps). Very beautiful and insanely well optimized on all the Xbox consoles.
I have Xbox series x and a switch, since I spend more time on Xbox I’ve changed the buttons on switch, if you play more on switch I recommend changing the buttons in the accessories settings on Xbox , so when the screens says press Y, you would press the button you take as being Y on switch.
I bought it yesterday and it was my very first x box , I had ps1 ,2, and ps4 . S X box series S is awesome and very affordable price. I’m x box for life now, good by playstation
Hey Ella, actually I bought the Xbox just to play flight SIM as well, I got the T Flight Full kit from Thrutmaster (The Joystick with the rudder). and definitely is a game changer with thegame experience. If you get it soon you should do a review. On the other hand I love your easy, smooth and great video direction you have. Congrats!. Cheers from Toronto downtown!
I bought a Series S. My solution for the storage problem is a 2TB HDD. I bought one from Seagate, the Xbox branded one, because it was on sale for 60€. I only install X/S enhanced games on the internal storage, everything else goes to the external HDD as it's playable from there. I even store some X/S enhanced games on the external HDD just because it's faster to move them from the HDD to the internal storage, than to reload the game. Assassins Creed Valhalla for example takes under 10 minutes to transfer from the internal SSD to the external HDD. Next Gen feeling with enough storage for the price of a nintendo switch OLED.
I am writing this even before watching. You have that type of person whatever u purchase I want it too. You're evaluating honestly and make everything interesting. Your impact is priceless. Dont change continue this way and u'll get whatever u deserve. And pls rate in the future s22 series
I always dig the series S/X unboxings. Say what you will about MS, but it's obvious that they put a fair amount of thought into what an unboxing will feel like. I like little quality of life things like that.
As someone a lot older than you, I have been gaming since the 70s. The first 2 Mass Effect games are probably my favorites of all time. The first ones story totally blew my mind. The first 3 have been remastered, and are on game pass. I dont hold the same respect for the last one, although discounting the ending, the rest of it wasnt a bad game at all. If you are into RPGs, Fallout 3 and Vegas were good titles. IIRC the autosave function will lock the game up so turn it off, but be sure to save often. I cant comment on FO 4 as I have yet to play thru it....backlogs anyways. So enjoy your new system.
You're one console away from having almost the same collection as me 😂 I have a v2 Switch, a Series S and a DS Lite. Really good combination because it lets me play a huge library of games. The only noteworthy things missing are online PC games (CS:GO for example) and PS exclusives. But I don't really play online games anymore and there are very few PS exclusives which interest me. So those 3 consoles have me covered for the most part.
Got mine a few days ago and it was my first xbox too I have a ps5 but the series s still looks great playing halo and forza especially and I got like 5 months of games pass for like 16 bucks
Quick resume is a great feature. When I'm doing a 6hr flight i just pause it, play other games, even turn my console off, and the next day i can just continue my flight.
Welcome to Xbox Ella! Remember with Game Pass you can also stream games, both on console, and handheld devices, as long as you have an internet connection. Can come in handy when you don't want to wait for an install. And if you have to start an installation, you can also start it from the app even when you're away from the console. Also, the graphics are pretty much the same on Series X. Because MSFS stimulates the entire planet Earth, most cities are pretty low res, but try flying over some monuments like the pyramids or Mount Everest. They look great.
I loved watching you experience the Xbox for the first time, you’re very cute and the fact that you’re so passionate about a relatively niche game is adorable 😌
Control was game of the year and is on Game Pass for another few weeks. Also if you like comic book games. Guardian of the Galaxy is my fav Xbox game I have played. It has great combat but the story is so fun an dthe banter and dialog kept me laughing and playing.
If you have a monitor that 1440p and 120hrz+ get an HDMI 2.1 cable for your Series S and you will be outputting to it's Max capabilities. I highly recommend that you do that. You can play games that are capable like Vanguard etc that run 1440p @120fps which the Series S is very capable of.
This Xbox in my opinion is so affordable than the expensive Xbox Series X but I have a game I think you will love, it’s called Chicken Little, it’s a original Xbox game that came out in the 2000’s, and it’s based off the Disney movie that came out in 2005 or something like that, I think it is a game I would recommend for you to check out :)
Wow it is not common to find a person who's a CS undergrad and interrested in playing MSFS like myself !! Totally relatable, you are so cute, love your videos.
Some people bash on the Series S. They say it isn’t a next gen system. It does everything just like the Series X does. The only difference is of course it is not as powerful. But there is a reason why they call it Series S, it’s a next gen console too. Love your videos and I just subscribed to your channel
I don't own any gaming systems but I still enjoyed watching the unboxing of your new XBOX. The flight simulator looks really cool but agree that the details in the graphics should look a little better. Enjoy Ella!
demon souls, metal gear solid 4, blood borne, uncharted series, jak& daxter, horzion forbidden west, god of war 4, ratchet & clank, spiderman & miles morals, killzone 2, ghost of tsushima, infamous second son, drive club, grand turismo 7, kena bridge of spirits, sifu, blood borne, shin migani tensei series, person 5 series, genshin impact, spyro trilogy, crash trilogy, detroit become human, the last gaurdian, shadow of the colossus, the lastof us part 1 & 2, nioh, gravity rush, guity gear, dark cloud, Toukiden series, final fantasy 7 remake, deep down, & bunch of other thousands of cool exclusives u can play on that series s
This is my first console too! I got mine 3 days ago and let me tell you it will not disapoint you im going on a trip soon and it is VERY mobile the condo im staying in has a tv and i can easily hook up HDMI and plug in the outlet i was not disapointed with my purchase i recomend buying this!
im gonna say for the downloads speeds and times, who remembers keeping their xbox 360 on all night just to install black ops 1 or 2 dlc that where 1 gig in size in 2011 or 12. the xbox 360 only could use 58 mbps downloads ,fat 32 file format at 5mb of data a second with sata 1 speeds. the slim in 2010 had sata 2 still fat32.
Depending on what games you like Forza horizon 5 and Gears 5 really showcase the consoles power, Halo infinite mainly because of it being a iconic franchise, but definently checking out gamepass and looking at all the games that ate offered on there.
Halo, Forza horizon 5, Ori and the blind forest and ori and the will of the wisps, hellblade senua's sacrifice and psychonauts 2 are some of my favourite exclusives. Others include Hades (absolutely spectacular game), deaths door, and the mass effect trilogy
It might be surprising but i still play the Xbox one alot more since it has all my games on it and at least 50% of my games were discs and it costs alot to get them digitally since most of them are rarely on sale and when they are i also have to keep a eye on the internal storage.
I got mine about a month and a half ago. The system is awesome! Since it was my first console as well I feel like that's why I was so easily wowed because I had no expectations. The main games I play is Fortnite, Forza 5, I bought GTA 5 but I haven't played it as much.
Great video, I would recommend getting the game pass (there are always special offers about to try it for cheap) so you can experience a wide array of games for one cost
Few things. Game uses realtime data to render lighting and weather so it would change with time in real world, so will textures. Not whole world is specifically rendered, only some cities/countries like Japan. Check FSim japan trailer , its not like Vancouver or other cities.
FS2020 is a great sim, you will never get bored, the whole world is waiting for you ! But it takes some patience, training, practice and you will be rewarded ! Have a nice flight !
Xbox is a nice hame system, i had a xbox one x before and liked it but never got too many physical games for it. I was too enthralled in the game pass and how awesome it was and the price of it too. If i were to get the new Xbox series it would be just the series s because of the game pass would be all i need to game on it. The series x having the bigger fancier hardware is not too much of a big deal for me. Just being able to play all the old games and all the brand spanking new games released on game pass is enough to satisfy.
I like your videos. I have a ps4 and would like to get into pc gaming but am intimidated by it. Any recommendations? Are the best pc's assembled piece by piece? Thanks.
I'm waiting for the Series X with AMD able to catch up with their manufacturing towards the end of the year. The Series X is WAAYYYY more powerful than the Series S, and is only NZ$200 more than the S. The 1TB external SSD cards for these consoles alone will cost over NZ$200, and if you have a 4k TV, it makes sense to wait until AMD can speed up its bulk manufacturing so Microsoft can make more Series X consoles.
I'd like for Microsoft to release a black Xbox Series S 1 TB SKU for like $349.99. Still playing on Xbox One S and will be getting a Xbox Series something later this year.
such a great value system paired with game pass, I've got the series X and it's great, though most my time has been spent on my PS5 currently, can't wait for Dying Light 2 and Horizon Forbidden West. Id highly recommend the Halo and Gears Of War games to play through.
I still find just using rechargeable batteries quite convenient. Especially of course when one already had some and a charger, which I realise may have become less common.
Hello, The simple game control/stick in the thumbnail, is enough and OK, to play Microsoft Flight ✈️ Simulator? Without the need for an expensive or more appropriate for flight games control stick?
i would buy gamepass because it’s an amazing deal you get a ton of games unlimited access for a cheap price a month, also this series s is backwards compatible so you can also play older xbox one and xbox 360 games on it but anyways try out: Call of duty modern warfare 2019 and call of duty warzone (keep an eye out for MWll, MW2019s sequel coming november this year) All Halo series all forza series, especially Forza 5 (it’s a racing franchise) Gears of war series GTA 5 Minecraft (it’s a relaxing game where u build stuff in a blocky world) Battlefield (not BF2042 tho) Sea of theives watch dogs 1 & 2 Elder scrolls far cry series fall out series
I feel like the S is such an underrated value. I tend to game on a monitor most of the time these days and if it weren't for my old physical library I think the S would have been the better choice for me
I think once the super resolution etc are fully used, the S will be amazing.
I agree with the physical point

Game Pass + Xbox Series S or X is SUCH a great value. Loving it.
Add an vrr display to the mix
Hey Ella. Pls check out forza horizon 5. Great intro to the racing side of the gaming world and also just a great game.
Yes, I very much agree 😁
I second this
thanks for the rec!
Great video, my nephew got one for Christmas. How are you enjoying it so far
Forza Horizon 5 is amazing
It's a common misconception that Series S can only render up to 1440p but actually there are many less demanding titles that play at 4k native. Hades, Ori, Mass Effect Legendary.

This is my first console too! I got mine 3 days ago and let me tell you it will not disapoint you im going on a trip soon and it is VERY mobile the condo im staying in has a tv and i can easily hook up HDMI and plug in the outlet i was not disapointed with my purchase i recomend buying this!
And I also loved your channel, I think your unboxing videos are great 😊
Game Pass Ultimate is where it is at, you can play games on your PC and Console with one subscription. I love the Series consoles and PC
I bought this as my birthday present. The best!
Ori and the will of the whisps 👌
I highly recommend this game.
Just when I had decided I shouldn’t get one here you are convincing me otherwise 😭
Welcome to the xbox family Ella, I promise you won't be disappointed
You should try Sea Of Thieves
Since you are bit of a new or casual gamer. I'd love to see your reaction and opnion on some other games.
first time watching your video...really stole my heart...i love ur energy...pls make more!!!
Kind of hard on something that is 300 bucks...Crazy what it can do and you can actually buy it.
One game that does look beautiful and runs at full 4k 60fps on the series s is Ori and the will of the whisps,try it.
You know what's funny this is my 1st xbox too
You’re making me buy one 😭😂 ❤️
it's pretty good!
im gonna say for the downloads speeds and times, who remembers keeping their xbox 360 on all night just to install black ops 1 or 2 dlc that where 1 gig in size in 2011 or 12. the xbox 360 only could use 58 mbps downloads ,fat 32 file format at 5mb of data a second with sata 1 speeds. the slim in 2010 had sata 2 still fat32.
I mean to sound like a broken record; try out game pass and choose some random stuff to try. Probably the easiest way to try some new things
Coming from original Xbone like me Series S is a beast. I don’t game as much anymore so it’s perfect.
Ella check out these Xbox Series S games Psychonauts 2, Judgement, Forza Horizon 5, Doom Eternal, Ori Will of the Wisp, Prey and Halo Infinite
Depending on what games you like Forza horizon 5 and Gears 5 really showcase the consoles power, Halo infinite mainly because of it being a iconic franchise, but definently checking out gamepass and looking at all the games that ate offered on there.
hi ! i wonder if you still use the xbox ?
and what are your thought about it after months ♥
Welcome to Xbox family 👍🏻👍🏻
Halo, Forza horizon 5, Ori and the blind forest and ori and the will of the wisps, hellblade senua's sacrifice and psychonauts 2 are some of my favourite exclusives. Others include Hades (absolutely spectacular game), deaths door, and the mass effect trilogy
u have a beautiful smile ❤️ and i luv ur energy!
It might be surprising but i still play the Xbox one alot more since it has all my games on it and at least 50% of my games were discs and it costs alot to get them digitally since most of them are rarely on sale and when they are i also have to keep a eye on the internal storage.
Omg yesss I just got this last week and I love it its so fast
Sea of Thieves is a pretty good Xbox exclusive game! I'd recommend lookin up some gameplay, it can be relaxing just sailing away into the horizon.
I'll check it out!
I got mine about a month and a half ago. The system is awesome! Since it was my first console as well I feel like that's why I was so easily wowed because I had no expectations. The main games I play is Fortnite, Forza 5, I bought GTA 5 but I haven't played it as much.
Great video, I would recommend getting the game pass (there are always special offers about to try it for cheap) so you can experience a wide array of games for one cost
Few things. Game uses realtime data to render lighting and weather so it would change with time in real world, so will textures. Not whole world is specifically rendered, only some cities/countries like Japan. Check FSim japan trailer , its not like Vancouver or other cities.
Download retroarch on it you can play ps1 ps2 GameCube wii and the original Xbox and older console on it and it’s free now
FS2020 is a great sim, you will never get bored, the whole world is waiting for you ! But it takes some patience, training, practice and you will be rewarded ! Have a nice flight !
ty!
Xbox is a nice hame system, i had a xbox one x before and liked it but never got too many physical games for it. I was too enthralled in the game pass and how awesome it was and the price of it too.
If i were to get the new Xbox series it would be just the series s because of the game pass would be all i need to game on it. The series x having the bigger fancier hardware is not too much of a big deal for me.
Just being able to play all the old games and all the brand spanking new games released on game pass is enough to satisfy.
Hey Ella, if you want to have a lot of games, get the Seagtate expansion it’s around $220 USD, but it have the same speeds as the internal SSD
3:05 made me giggle
(love your content youre awesome)
congrats on ur new console
ty
Im not buying any of these but it's just nice to watch Ella, yknow?
A Plague Tale Innocence it's amazing game to play, and is included on game pass.
thanks for the rec!
I like your videos. I have a ps4 and would like to get into pc gaming but am intimidated by it. Any recommendations? Are the best pc's assembled piece by piece? Thanks.
I'm waiting for the Series X with AMD able to catch up with their manufacturing towards the end of the year. The Series X is WAAYYYY more powerful than the Series S, and is only NZ$200 more than the S. The 1TB external SSD cards for these consoles alone will cost over NZ$200, and if you have a 4k TV, it makes sense to wait until AMD can speed up its bulk manufacturing so Microsoft can make more Series X consoles.
I'd like for Microsoft to release a black Xbox Series S 1 TB SKU for like $349.99. Still playing on Xbox One S and will be getting a Xbox Series something later this year.
such a great value system paired with game pass, I've got the series X and it's great, though most my time has been spent on my PS5 currently, can't wait for Dying Light 2 and Horizon Forbidden West. Id highly recommend the Halo and Gears Of War games to play through.
thanks for the rec!
I will get one of these soon!
Get the “Play & Charge Kit” so that you don’t have to buy more batteries, and could just charge the Xbox controller with USB-C.
thanks for the tip!
I still find just using rechargeable batteries quite convenient. Especially of course when one already had some and a charger, which I realise may have become less common.
Hoping to get one . My wish list 🙏🎊
I was waiting for the landing 🤣
don't know how to do that lol
Nice video, Ella! Hope you find more games for reviewing :)!
A going you CAN get right now. Is an AMD 6600xt.
Hello,
The simple game control/stick in the thumbnail, is enough and OK, to play Microsoft Flight ✈️ Simulator? Without the need for an expensive or more appropriate for flight games control stick?
I miss the xbox one trigger vibration
Gears of Wars 2 and 3 are great games to play
Play forza horizon 5. Also nice is gears 5, Halo infinite, sea of thieves. Congrats to your series s. Amazing device you get for that money. Have fun.
I have both a Series S and X. On most games the graphics are comparable, but Flight Sim is not one of them lol
I was meaning to check up Xbox Series S reviews but its not to a fresh review, Thanks Ella. Looking forward to the Samsung S22 review soon 😄🙏
Hope you enjoy it!
Play KAMEO through backwards compatibility 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
i would buy gamepass because it’s an amazing deal you get a ton of games unlimited access for a cheap price a month, also this series s is backwards compatible so you can also play older xbox one and xbox 360 games on it
but anyways try out:
Call of duty modern warfare 2019 and call of duty warzone (keep an eye out for MWll, MW2019s sequel coming november this year)
All Halo series
all forza series, especially Forza 5 (it’s a racing franchise)
Gears of war series
GTA 5
Minecraft (it’s a relaxing game where u build stuff in a blocky world)
Battlefield (not BF2042 tho)
Sea of theives
watch dogs 1 & 2
Elder scrolls
far cry series
fall out series
Halo and the mass effect trilogy with the dlcs is on game pass
