If you want an xbox one with much faster load times then sure

but there arent many exclusives so that is mostly what youre paying for right now

Also both of the new consoles create some serious HEAT. If youre playing a AAA game its like having an actual heater on in the room. Just be aware

The Series S doesn't do native 4K. So if you want it for 4K videos, the One X will actually look better.

Buy an Xbox 360, it has a ton of shmups that were released in Japan and never had a release anywhere else.

Native 4K will get you the best picture, since the Xbox is outputting 4K. The Series S upscale image from 1440P upto 4K, which means it'll look pretty good, but nowhere as good as native 4K.

Imo wait for series x if you want 4K.

the series s up scales though. Honestly if you have the base Xbox one than series s is a huge step up.

Problem is that x is so expensive right now. He could always get a series s now and then wait until series x is sold at retail price and still save money than buying from a scalper

A console is a long term investment don't buy from a scalper but if your gonna buy one buy the best

I really have zero interest in dropping that much money on an Xbox when I already plan on buying a ps5 i as soon as I possibly can. That non native 4k shit is a major deal breaker though

you'll be fine with a series s

you will not notice the difference between upscaled and native until probably the end of this generation

Do you know how Doom Eternal looks on an S compared to an X? I only bring it up because when they did the S/X update for the game it really made a big difference in how cool a lot of the effects looked in the game, but Ive only played it on the X

wife refuses to allow me to get an S as well to compare

I'm sure there are comparisons out there but I've never seen it brought up as an issue so I'm sure that it's fine

obviously any effects are going to be the same though

It's weak as shit and doesn't have an optical drive. It works better as a paperweight than a game console.

HBO max and the new Suicide Squad will be in 4K. The series s have the hdmi 2.0 I believe. Heck the one x and PS4 pro can stream in 4K so why wouldnt the series s?

PS4 Pro doesn't do native 4K either.
