- Thanks to LG for sponsoring this video! Check out the LG OLED CX48 TV at bit.ly/32CXRBB
Xbox Series X and Series S have a few key differences in GPU processing power (TFLOPS), storage, and RAM- but how do these differences manifest in-game? We do some side by side comparisons using Assassin's Creed Valhalla to find out, and we're using the LG OLED CX48 TV as the display since it's a 4K OLED TV giving amazing picture quality and HDMI 2.1 for ultra-fast refresh rates. It's the perfect TV for console gaming! You can purchase it here: bit.ly/32CXRBB

POV: You’re here because you’ve been waiting for the series X to come in stock but you’re thinking about getting the series S but need to see the differences
Yes exactly but im still going with the series x even after this video :( but good luck tho

This was a perfect comparison with both systems. I dont mind downloading all my games and having slight lesser performance, just to play games quick. S looks to be up to my speed with the budget price

I have a series S as well and I can barely tell the difference between the S and x
After this video, I feel I should save money and get the S model.
thats what i ended up doing too, only thing thats an issue is storage space. and with AAA games being 100 gigs or close it gets cramped easily.

@@androidwonderland yea but i have a lot of next gen games, a lot of external ssd's dont allow you to play next gen games off of the ssd. the seagate expansion card is too expensive so i'll just have to deal with it
Can I use my external drive from the original Xbox One to the Series S? If so I'll just get the S. It'll be like having a $300 console with 2.5 tb storage. Graphics are good but not worth the extra $200 for the X.

??? He said DOOM looked like "dog crap" and "awful" on the Series S. This entire video showcases how much better the Series X performs.
The series s is just perfect for the kids like me with divorced parents. Perfect size to carry in your backpack, imagine trying to do that with the ps5. You would need a pickup truck to move that unit. 😂
Kids these days. I used to load an original Xbox and all the stuff I'd need for a sleep over in a back pack then ride my bike 5 miles to my friends house. And it was uphill both ways in 300 feet of snow!!!!
@@mrfatibe yeah okay but in that same backpack I have to put a laptop cloths and all my school books 📚
Lmao thats a big reason why im getting a series s 😂😂
same
Idk if i should cry or laugh at this comment
The S is surprisingly good. It's all I am going to say. There's a 60fps patch for Valhalla. Morrtal Kombat 11 runs surprisingly well and in frame (60fps). Be willing to manage the smaller SSD space with a set of games at a time and you will be set.
Bro I have a series and tbh it’s ok not that many series x/s games run at 60 fps
It’s a no out the same sort of ratio for ps5 or almost. I do prefer PlayStation in general but they don’t exist.
But you can see 60fps options for the S running about 1080p usually. Morta Kombat 11 is like a best case. Runs 60fps solid and near 4K
@@Raist3db all fighting games run at 60fps, new and old.
@@optionselleck2860 that’s not quite true. There’s been older fighting games running at 30fps (soul blade on ps1 for example). And soul calibur when they started to use the unreal engine had some stutters on its presentation
I find Mortla Kombat Uktimate quite quite solid with everything going on and high res.
@@Raist3db 99% of fighting games and any new fighting game, even ones from ps2 run at 60fps, they have to because that's how the moves are measured,
--frame data built to work within 60fps, no more or less. So the point is it's not impressive for mk or any fg to run at 60fps because that's exactly what they have to be, you can't have more or less, it's not about a quality thing..

I got the S. I am so happy with it. It's just such a good deal and the games run like a charm. Do note I am coming from PC gaming and I am pretty picky, but so far Xbox S was a bliss.
And the fact that it's so small and portable is so great for bringing it to your friends/relatives house etc. It's lovely.
And for the small storage - just buy a 40 EUR external storage and you're set. YES, not all games can be run from HDD. There's a way to check whether the game demands to be run from the internal SSD or will it run from HDD, and most games do.
So, I just download the games that can run from HDD to the HDD, while use the SSD for the rest.
@@ojasgadekar they load slower yes, but they still load at the same speed as xbox one games (on an xbox one, if your hdd is fast enough which it should be)
Got the Series S, first console ive bought for myself, had it for almost a year now. Pretty solid buy. Used it to play a bunch of games thats on the game pass, now I mostly use it as a media box, until new stuff comes out.
I was really hoping he was gonna say the choice isn't black and white.
It isn't exactly black and white. The Series S is excellent for playing standard Xbox One games, which is nice considering the reduction in price.

Series X does something magic. I ran the first Assassin's Creed title, 2008, transferred to x360 around 2010. The game looks astonishing even for being 14 years old. It has also been proven here in this video that Series X does somehow improve the graphics.
FSR 2.1 on the Series S will be a welcome update to boost FPS significantly! I'm very curious how Cyperpunk 1.6.1 performs on Series S!
Great. Runs at 60fps now.

The SSDs in these systems are monsters compared to last gen hardware like the Xbox one x or the PS4 pro
Question on load time. I saw in the video where you did resume from the home screen and both were pretty quick. I may have missed it in the video, did you show when you're in gameplay in an enemy kills you how quickly the game reloads for you to respawn into the game? How many seconds did it take for you to be reloaded into a live play game and start playing?
In just a little background, our family has two Xbox ones. And I'm looking to add another Xbox to our home for myself. I'm not a huge gamer, but I would like to play with my with my child that's playing on an Xbox One. Of course they're saying get the x, but I'm thinking playing on game pass the Xbox s would work for me. I just want to be sure load times and a live game would be compilable.
When the Series S started moving on it's own it was almost like "Look it's Linus....Lets just get it over with"

Yes, Doom Eternal has a One X enhanced version so that's what the Series X will beplaying. The Series S will be playing the One S version. Until the optimised Series versions come out.
Yes doom eternal came out purposely to prove that 1080p games Still Rock on the new systems and both of the new system can stream 1440p to the internet which is better than one Doom Eternal signal to most tv still upscale 1080p. 72 inch tv
I actually just bought the series s lastnight and honestly. I’m very happy and impressed with this little console
I have both
...Series s is very good too
Hi thanks for the video, very helpful
One thing I learned from this video *the series S is pretty damn good/cheap*
Def is a amazing console for a budget!
👍👍 This video should help ease people's minds a bit more to buy the budget friendly option. It's still a brilliant choice, you'll have access to all the new gen games and features. Plus most people won't even notice a change at all once they adjust to it anyways. If I wasn't sold on the S before I am now.
Yea only downside is storage
I'm getting the s bc it's cheaper and I don't play graphic demanding games like he was
@@wavy0ski you can get a USB port 2tb external for half the price
I love how a mainly pc gamer looks at that texture pop in after returning from the bird and is suprised by how "bad" it is. where as I'm sitting over here, mainly a console gamer still, thinking, "dang that pop in is so much better than it used to be."
He also said there wasn't much of a difference between X and S, but there was, the textures on the X loaded in like four times as fast.
Lmao 😂
While it’s not perfect you can store and swap files around for x/s optimized games on a usb external drive. You can also play xbox one, 360, and original xbox games directly from it. It makes it a lot cheaper to have a lot more storage with not much of a headache.
The thing is, not everyone has a 4K display. Most of the people I know, me included still use 1080p monitors and are more than fine with that. I was expecting to see what difference it’d make on one of those.
@Terminalforlife (LL) congrats man I’m thinking about getting a ps5 digital or Xbox series x even tho I have series s, maybe I’ll get Xbox one x but that’s the fattest maybe ever and I can basically only buy a friggin switch lite (it cost 200) and I think the digital ps5 cost 400 I only think, Xbox series x cost 500 but I mean..my 4 years of collecting money off the floor paid off 200 DOLLARS

@@IIARROWS Normal people dont understand that with youtube upload compression you cannot tell for sure if it is the way it looks in real life. Even if the capture would be perfect.
Dunno what quality you're watching on, but you can tell a difference at 1440p. Especially when they showed doom eternal, yikes.

And the storage is not a problem as of now because i only plan on playing elden ring for the foreseeable future.

Question:
Regardless of which series you get isn't the bottle neck going to be the TV's capabilities to PRODUCE THE HIGH RES IMAGES?
Even If you got the X series unless you have a HIGH RES TV (4k) the quality would look only as good as the S (under 4k)...?
Does this make sense?
Or will the graphics still look "BETTER" with the X series on a NON-4k TV?

@@XperiencePureness wish I watched that video. (Sad face)
Honestly, you'd have been better off going used market at that point. Can find some cheap ass Radeon (R9 280X, 7970 etc.) cards, assuming you're in a country with a decent used marketplace anyway.
me- has uhd 620 why are we still here just to suffer every moment....
One thing I'm disappointed Linus didn't say is that both series Xboxes s/x can use USB storage at launch it was iffy on what Titles would be USB playable but even then it was quick to shift games back and forth as alot if games would come close to 100gb and the 512gb (realistically 300gb after os and provisioning) ssd only gave you five games with it space, but shifting games to my external and back again was typically minutes and I could play other titles while data was transferred . Now after several patches alot more games will play off USB (sorry no definitive list) even games that demanded internal storage will now run off USB (I'm not saying every game will but both cyberpunk and avengers demanded to be on the internal on my system and recently for some reason started working off the external). Usually Linus is so thorough and tries some extra out of the box stuff in his review it felt odd he's absolutely right 200 for double the storage she a blu ray drive is a pretty decent deal But some of us have a blu ray player or don't even use blu rays so the only really advantage left was storage so I was surprised he didn't do a thing on how games load off USB (comparative loading times) how long transfers take to provide on what you really give up by getting the s. I'm also suprised that no review I've seen even Linus hasn't talked about upscaling as most 4k tvs have done sorry of upscaler for non 4 k sources. Does a good upscaler help out the series s. Does the x benefit from a upscaler etc. Just my 2 cents overall a great review
Yea the 10 seconds load time was pointless
Yeah, I was kind of hoping he was going to bring this stuff up. I have an 8tb HDD and wanted to know the performance differences sense It will be a while before I get a card. I know for some people every second and graphics matter, but for me, it does not. I just want a cheap way to play next-gen games sense we are now getting to the point that developers are cutting last generation support.
The big one for me is discs. As a bit of a collector, I like discs and plastic boxes a lot
Honestly the Series X is so hard to get right now that a Series S is just fine for now and much easier to get. If you're a true graphics snob then build a PC.
@Gregory5331 Yeah...no. Series s is ideal for 3rd world countries where games and PCs are extremely expensive. Either wait for PS5 or build a PC if you have the cash.
Actually that's not entirely true. Many PC gamers still run 1080p on high settings as it's way more affordable to do so. For the average gamer the XS is a effing steal at its price point. And for those who are on a budget still rocking a 1080p or 720p TV you'll never miss not having true 4K. My plasmas keep me occupied til OLED hit that right price in the next year or so, enjoy.
@@Arda-dq4rt A 1060TI Graphics card in the US is the price of a Xbox series X rn so no in the US is gonna be building a PC rn
@@duiwithc4corvette403 investing the extra to get the PC, (2x 3x 4x) is worth it IF you have the cash regardless if you are a 1080p gamer. Xbox wont get you nowhere near as many games. Also you can use certain methods where you can play games for free on PC rather than cashing out 80 dollars moving forward. Xbox is not so cheap if you are a harcore gamer wanting to play a lot of games. GamePass wont solve all your issues. But I understand the appeal. In Turkey where consoles are 1000$ certainly makes it easier to just save the extra for PC.Add the significant income and fiat differences, building a PC in US even with the elevated scalper prices is extremely cheap compared to 3rd world countries.

@@Arda-dq4rt Bro no one would invest double the price of the parts original price, I’d rather wait until the market settles let alone 4x.

You guys really need to record at 60FPS when trying to demonstrate differences in framerates and "smoothness". It's completely imperceptible when your video is 30FPS. Even if most of your video is rendered at 30FPS and just 60FPS in the side-by-side comparison shots.
no, watching 60 fps "none gamplay" videos on youtube is not that good, 30 fps gives cinematography effect, recording at 60 fps feels weird to watch, there's a good reason if cinema standard is 24 or 25 fps
Who needs 60fps when the video is shot on a 16k camera 😂
@@Tonyx.yt. They literally edited together a gameplay comparison of framerates, no one cares about cinematography when the goal is to show a side-by-side comparison of information that is literally missing from your video.
If you want to keep the cinematography, like I already said, render the video at 30fps except when you are explicitly showing a framerate comparison.
@@noahcuroe or better yet, just slow down the footage by 50% so the difference in framerate can actually be seen at 30fps without having to jump between different framerates in your video, this whole video seems to be pretty low effort though tbh, from other comments i've read it seems that doom eternal on the series s is actually running with the same settings as the one s, since it hasn't yet been optimised, but from the video you would get the impression that the game isn't able to look better on the hardware, just pure laziness tbh

Already 1 year ago. Insane. Yep, time flies ;)
It would be nice if you would have clarified whether you were running the games in Performance or Quality mode because most games have the ability to switch between the two. The difference obviously comes down to their target framerates. Most games (Especially Doom Eternal) will target 120fps with a sacrifice in visual quality in Performance mode and target 60fps with better visuals in Quality mode.
for doom eternal at the time there was no new gen patch, so he was comparing the xbox one s to the xbox one x version lol.
@@JudeTheTH-camPoopersubscribe oh ok thanks for the clarification
@@SSenderling currently on the series s doom eternal runs at either 1440p 60fps or 1080p with lowered visuals at 120fps, linus was shitting on it when he was playing the xbox one version which was made for 2013 hardware lol.

Actually doom was running through backwards compatibility.
But recently they released a next gen patch and the both consoles look so crisp
I like how he called them "One X" and "One S" at the end of the intro. 😆
Lol I caught that too. 😆
Thats how dumb and confusing xbox naming is.
I think he meant one series x and one series s
Bugged me. I had to look for a comment relating to it 😭🤣
I mean, to be fair they have an awful naming scheme. I don't know how it's been this long and Microsoft still hasn't learned a thing about how to name something.
Okay, Linus you did an Oopsie , Doom looks worse because it is running One S version on Series S and One X version on Series X. They are in their backwards compatibility mode while Valhalla is a cross gen game designed for next gen.
Regardless of which version it's running, that is still the experience you get on Series S.

@@calebhearn1526 , well, if you get a C10, you are prob not bying a Series S anyway.
An equally/more relevant comparison would be to run both an a 1080p/cheap 4k screen, since that is more the target for the Series S.
You mentioned some games may let you decide. On miles morales for the 5 there’s a visual or performance mode but also one that kinda does both visual and 60fps which is nice
When developers begin to concentrate more fully on the X rather than splitting resources between that and the S I wonder if the differences in performance will be greater.
Not really the only reason someone would get the series x is to get the bet of the best they focus more on the Sirius s because the series s is a long term console that over time it will get better with updates
@@pooticus2489 And so will the Series X. Which is why this person made their comment in the first place because they're working on both and thus have less focused efforts on improvement.
I would say its more so, when they stop making games for the Xbox one/previous gen, is when we will see what both consoles are capable of.

I went with the Series S. It fit my budget better but does what I need it to. I wish people would just calm down and let those of us who can’t afford the more expensive consoles, just be happy and not feel like second class.

*@Larson907*
This is the future, man. deal with it or buy a PC.
1. Then you should probably invest in better Internet, not a gaming console.
2. If that's not an option, just go to sleep and wake up with the new update installed.
lol damn that must be some ass internet
I like the s, but all my 360 and one discs aren’t just magically going away because it’s cheaper
I should edit my first console was the launch day one, up to that point I only had the Nintendo ds and gameboy so I went back and bought 360 titles that had great reputation and played them on my one, which technically is my “family” Xbox so yeah being off at college I’d like a way to play all my games
Finaly I found someone in the comments who has disc too. I was thinking the same, series S would be enough for me, but I need a way to play my old games so series S is a no no. Thanks Microsoft
Can't agree more. To my the S is for someone that wants a few games on it to play COD, Fornite and so on that aren't going to buy tons or that wants a few on Gamepass/or as a second console even if for the cheap price, but us Disk users need the more expensive ones to keep using our older (4 generation of Xbox games) and newer games on them. And I'm not selling them for a digital code either.
Though as I have no Original Xbox, 2 360 (1 with Internet, 1 without), and a One/One X I think it's clear what I've using my Original Xbox and 360 games on.
Testing what the old can do is cool still and using it for new is important/giving it the proper use, but yeah otherwise the lists just aren't worth it if you have the older consoles or certain games you can't (cough and the Xbox Original on Xbox One list is just not worth it to me compared to the 360's BC, it's good and has a few on there I want but not enough to count it worth while compared to the few 360 I tried on the One). And as I've just started collecting for Original Xbox now the ones I wanted like Project Gotham Racing 1 & 2 aren't on Xbox One's list so no point in moving forward for them, so the 360s will do.
I had the same thought process for a bit, until I actually looked at my gaming collection for the 360 (skipped MS last gen). I was REALLY into Capcom and fighting games back then so those were all physical. My two sticks wouldn't work on the S or the X, so I'm still stuck with that system for those games. I have the best luck when it comes to gaming (your screen should be sticky from the sarcasm oozing from those words). Almost 75% of the other games I bought physical were later released a free games on Gold back when they actually let you keep the games.
Fast forward to 12AM on the 11th, when I finally get home and get to open the Series S I was able to get from Walmart. I have 34 games available in my library, $15 in a my Live account that has to have been sitting there for 6+ years, and the offer for Game Pass Ultimate for $1. After using the offer (and finding out I also have enough Bing Rewards points for 3 more months) to fill in the blanks, out of my entire library I'm missing Lost Odyssey and some random OG Xbox games I was given when I first got the 360 and needed something to play.
All in all, I'm very satisfied with what I got. I gave up a disc drive and some extra power under the hood for $200. 800GB wasn't going to be enough for my BC library, so I still would have needed to get extra storage even if I bought the Series X. My 4K TV can't do 120HZ, but I have a great 1080P projector. Now, had I been planning to upgrade either of those in the next few years, I probably would have bought a Series X.... A year from now.
I think that we should just wait for a few more months or maybe a year for the next version of these consoles. See the difference between the OG Xbox One and the final One X?
I wouldn't be surprised if there will probably be a disc drive accessory
‼️The Xbox Series S got an update so the OS uses less memory so games can run better. Memory was a big complaint from devs working on games for the Series S so hopefully they can better optimize their games for the Series S.‼️
EDIT: Around 5-10% performance increase
Realistically though somebody who is going to be buying the Xbox Series S is probably not going to have that fancy pants TV.
Exactly, it's for the people who don't have 4k
I dunno, my wife and I both find the S really attractive because of its smol size and steep discount, even though we have several 4K TVs and top end gaming PCs and all that stuff. I guess we just don't consider consoles to be where we look for good graphics to begin with.
@@Adahop yes there will definitely be people like yourself, but I think a lot of the reviewers are forgetting that the biggest market for consoles is the same as ever - kids.
@Dindu "Price per frame" doesn't mean shit to parents who are buying it for their kids and that 200 dollars extra for the Series X feels way more expensive than it does to you because of salary
@@star215 Yeah but imagine all the parents out there who buy the Series S and it can't even play all of the games they previously purchased.
The Series S is primarily for gamers like myself that are on a 10 year old 1080p TV and don't intend to upgrade anytime soon. It is designed to play optimally on that (or 1440p) resolution with upscaling to 4K an additional feature. The faster loading time and low input latency are the winners for me and why I will soon upgrade from my One S.
But 4K TVs are like nothing...
@@Knights_of_the_Nine for you maybe. Form me living in South Africa, gaming is a luxury. I have much more important things to spend my money on than buying a new TV while my old one is still perfectly fine. A 4K TV won't make me a better gamer ;-)
Ayo if ur a competitive gamer there is absolutely no need for 4k, all you need is 120fps, and so isn’t series s the best deal?
@Cantdothis212 Because it has clear benefits specifically for the games that I play. The main game that I play, Pinball FX3, clearly put users with the least amount of input lag at an advantage. That is one clear area where the Xbox Series is vastly improved on the Xbox One. The cost of the S is cheap for what you get and low enough that I don't have to go too much out of my way to buy it if I e.g. sell my Xbox One S.
Buying an X will just be pointless for me at this stage. I will not be able to make use of it unless I buy a much more expensive TV that have HDMI 2.1 input. That is just not viable for me or at all a priority.

Ya okay. Whatever kind of soulless person considers themselves competitive gamers?

I love the choice of advertising cuz it relates to the product, has a chance to be profitable for all involved and has a low chance to be bias for the product being reviewed. A+ on production!

The only thing that would make the series S a competitive console would be the availability to have your physical library transferred to digital. It would end up costing you just about as much or more as the price of the series x if you have a large physical library. I like my series x
And while you could, in theory, re-purchase most of your games digitally, if any of the physical games you have are delisted, you won't be able to at all. It's why I prefer the Series X too.
The Series S is such a good deal to me! Just because I already have a PC so I use consoles as a social experience

7:20 something tells me Linus isn’t aware that doom eternal didnt receive next gen updates yet (even a month and a half later as of writing this). What Linus is seeing on series s here is the Xbox ONE version, NOT one made for series s, so if you want to play doom eternal now on your series s then good luck, but if you wait a little bit your results will likely be very different
Yeah I feel that is really important to point out. Unless it has been specifically optimized for the series s, it is running the one s version. I’m surprised they didn’t know that and compare games that were actually optimized.
UPDATE: As of today (6/29/2021) Doom eternal has in fact received series s/x optimizations! What does this mean for you? If youre looking at a Series S: It is much different! 1080p120 or 1440p60, making this game look much better and/or run much smoother. If youre looking at Series X: not much has changed for you, although now you can check out Doom Eternal with raytracing!

I’m a Series S gamer and this little thing has some power that I like. Ray tracing is good but I’m not really rushing into anything that’s upscaled. The better consoles can wait but in this case I love my Series S.
The problem with comparing games like Doom Eternal is that you're actually playing the Xbox One X or Xbox One S versions of the games. So the Series S is playing a version developed for 1.4tflops
Yeah, they didn't really put a ton of research into this video. They also didn't mention that ac Valhalla runs at 60fps with adaptive resolution on the series x. And the fact that ubisoft games are known for their mediocre optimization.
A game like gears 5 would be a much better comparison.
I doesn't matter. They compared the same game. And we all know that the series s will look and perform alot worst.
@@romariowilliams3893 well it does matter because its not representative of the Series S capabilities
@@carllavery4442 the writing is on the wall. There have been multiple videos showing the series s dropping to 900p and only doing 1080p 60fps is some games. No raytracing in some games and not being able to do 1440 60fps on most games. Less than 400gb of usable space. But believe what you want but the series s is a bad buy and will be obsolete by the end of next year.
yeah I can't believe microsoft left Sereies S with only 10GB RAM so it can't run One X version. They really meant Series S to be an inferior experience.
Hey Linus, the Doom version is the Xbox ONE S version in the Series S, the Series X have optimizations that the S has not.
Yep. It's funny Linus or his team wouldn't know that key information. 🤷♀️🤷♂️
Yup Doom runs at 900p for Series S with default X1 backwards compatibility. This was a poor review to sell LG TVs. Like someone who could afford an OLED would then buy the cheapest Xbox around.
Every other review I've seen mentions this, even guys with like 1000 subs. Meanwhile big ol Linus is playing 900p "vcr" xbox one games on a series X and complaing about the graphics😔
Sure Microsofts implementation could have been better but you could have done some bare minimum research and played one of there optimised games listed below
www.xbox.com/en-AU/games/optimized
Or you know at least mention that your playing a last gen version of doom.
@@GarbageTakesOnJapaneseGames Series X uses the One X enhanced version on Doom, while Series S uses the plain old One version at 900p. Likely an enhanced version for Series S would run at 1440p adaptive resolution with a minimum of 1080p, aside from other improvements.
@The Anonymous Apdroid going for series x.
As a PS4 owner who wanted to stay in the Playstation eco for the single player games but venture into the Xbox community for the online play with my friends and Gamepass, this Series S seems perfect for me.
Also my new gaming monitor can only go up to 1440p (Which is what I prefer) then I might not be able to tell the difference at all in most games right?
Actually if supports 1440p but it can drop to 720p in some rare high demanding scenes and even below 6fps in rarely. While xbox series s will never drop below 1080p and 60fps whatever the scene is
