There is basically nothing wrong with it whatsoever. Both consoles are able to be expanded through USB 3. It looks similar but has a new "share" button and the D-Pad design that looks more like the one on the Elite 2 pro controller. We have no problems whatsoever with the older Xbox controller though - it's one of the best ever released - and the best news is that you can use it on the Series X too. And many Xbox Series X accessories, including the new wireless controller, are backward compatible with Xbox One too.
Xbox is committed to releasing games for all Xbox consoles from One up for at least a couple of years going forward. And, as a bonus, some of the games will instantly be upgraded when installed on a Series X. That might mean enhanced graphics and better loading times.
All other streaming apps and entertainment services will be similar across both. That could be important if you plan to purchase an 8K TV anytime soon. As the Xbox One X is largely discontinued, you might have to shop around for one. Ultimately, the main decision to make is whether you want to invest heavily in the future of gaming or you're happy to settle for the best the last generation has to offer. The Xbox Series X is an extremely powerful, exciting new console. But we also have a massive sweet spot for the Xbox One X still.
The latter is an amazing machine for the current price and if you can find one for sale, it could be a better option for a tighter budget. In most titles, you can expect higher resolutions, higher frame rates, and more detailed characters and environments compared to the same games on Xbox One or PlayStation 4, all with better image quality. Effects should also be more pronounced and sophisticated, as the new graphics hardware in these consoles can pull off greater amounts of fancy tricks like smoke and fog that has physical properties, and lighting that creates shadows and reflections more like it does in the real world.
That last element is particularly likely to improve as the generation progresses. Both the Xbox Series X and Series S and the PlayStation 5 feature hardware-accelerated ray tracing, a type of graphics rendering that allows for much more sophisticated visual effects and lighting. Several games, such as Resident Evil: Village , and The Medium use ray-traced reflections in the world, for example. This means faster user interfaces and much faster load times, 1 as well as more sophisticated character and game behaviors, and just more stuff on screen at any given moment.
But the biggest improvements are most apparent in frame rates, which should hit 60 frames per second much more often this generation than last. The more frames per second, the more often the controller and the game are communicating. So a new Series X or Series S should feel like it responds faster and more reliably to your inputs. On the Series X and S, performance in the recent beta was consistently smooth.
Controls also feel more responsive, in part because Xbox has rewritten the software behind its controllers with a feature called Dynamic Latency Input DLI.
This new storage helps provide some of the most obvious improvements to the overall user experience and games for this new console generation, with a night-and-day difference in console startup, game boot-ups, and in-game load times.
Using their fast storage access, the Xbox Series X and Series S allow you to suspend almost any game by creating a snapshot of it in system memory. You can then start another game, watch a movie, or even turn off and completely unplug your console. Initially, Quick Resume support was somewhat spotty, with several games encountering problems with the feature but recent patches have improved overall stability, though there are still occasional, unavoidable issues.
The Xbox Series X and Series S offer nearly blanket backward compatibility, meaning that your existing libraries of Xbox One—compatible software which in turn includes hundreds of Xbox and original-Xbox games will run on the Xbox Series X and Series S. The exception is Kinect software and hardware.
None of that will work on the new console. There are a few games where this feature results in image quality that looks a little funny, but it can be disabled on a per game basis. Microsoft also recently introduced FPS Boost , the official term for a proprietary software technique that allows the Xbox Series consoles to effectively double the targeted framerate of backwards compatible games without the need for official patches from the original developer.
For some games, this means 60 FPS or thereabouts for the first time on consoles. For others, it means FPS with supported televisions.
Every first- and third-party controller, every fight stick, every driving wheel, every media remote, and every already formatted storage device is compatible with the new consoles. Those controllers will need a firmware update, however; the consoles will tell you this when you connect a controller that needs it, and the firmware update works both wired and wirelessly.
Microsoft is rolling Dynamic Latency Input out to every previous generation controller this Fall. It connects via the proprietary wireless standard used by the Xbox One and Series consoles and also supports Bluetooth for mobile devices , and can independently adjust chat and game volume. However, Microsoft has worked with many headset manufacturers to offer firmware updates to enable proper USB support for the Series X and Series S in their existing headsets.
The Series S, meanwhile, ships with GB of available free space. For the Series S, storage space could be a particular challenge. If you need to buy more space, you have three options.
That performance comes at a cost, though. Occupying the middle ground—meaning, plenty fast but more affordable—are external SSD drives. Plug them in, and any Xbox One, Xbox , or original-Xbox games you have installed will appear automatically and be playable barring any required updates. Xbox Game Pass is the best deal in video gaming. Xbox Game Pass is sort of like Netflix: A flat subscription fee buys you unlimited access to every game on Game Pass, which sees new titles rotate in and other titles rotate out over time.
The service is a trove of hidden gems, and it provides access to many higher-profile, well-received indies. This includes every subsequent game from those studios upon release, many of which Xbox has stated publicly will be exclusive to Xbox and PC. Instead of paying all at once for a new Xbox, you can get one through the Xbox All Access program. Additionally, Wirecutter senior staff writer Chris Heinonen, who is responsible for much of our television coverage, has tested the Xbox Series X as well as just about every major and television model with HDMI 2.
Storage speed is important for load times in games, but because most game elements on a drive are compressed—and must be decompressed when you play them, which requires CPU power to do—faster CPUs mean faster load times. We expect it will be difficult to find an Xbox Series X until some time in See xbox. Game performance in comparison with Xbox One S. A small number of existing games may not achieve performance improvements.
