FAQs
Is Xbox Series X sold out? ›
Xbox Series X restock is currently available. The Microsoft Store continues to have new and refurbished consoles from $469 via this Microsoft link (opens in new tab). The Microsoft Store and Best Buy are generally your best bets if you're looking for Xbox Series X restock.
Will Xbox Series X be $500? ›The Xbox Series X is Microsoft's flagship console, serving as its most powerful (and biggest) option. While the Series S is aimed at smooth 1440p performance and takes a disc-less approach, the $500 Series X is focused on fast, 4K gameplay.
Which is better Xbox X or S? ›The Series X is designed for games with resolutions of up to 4K (and it theoretically supports 8K resolutions for video content), while the Xbox Series S has less-powerful graphics hardware that game developers appear to be targeting for 1080p and sometimes 1440p visuals.
Is Xbox Series S worth it? ›It would seem that most gamers agree that the Xbox Series S is a budget-friendly alternative to the Series X and is well worth a cheaper investment for next-gen gaming action.
Is the console shortage over? ›Two years after the console's launch, the global PlayStation 5 shortage is officially over. So said Jim Ryan, the president of Sony Interactive Entertainment, at the Consumer Electronics Show 2023 on Wednesday.
Can the Xbox Series S run 4K? ›The Xbox One X, Xbox One S, and Xbox Series X|S consoles support 4K. The original Xbox One does not. If you have an Xbox One and aren't sure which version it is, look on the back of your Xbox.
Do you need a 4K TV for Xbox One S? ›You must have an Xbox Series X, an Xbox Series S, an Xbox One X, or an Xbox One S and a 4K TV to use the 4K UHD resolution. Xbox Series X|S also supports 4K 120Hz refresh rate.
Can you put discs in Xbox Series S? ›Note The Xbox Series S is an all-digital console. Game discs, movie discs, and external USB disc drives are not supported.
Is Xbox losing money on Series S? ›Not long after Microsoft confirmed Xbox console sales for the first time in ages, the company now admitted they're losing money on every console sold. The news comes via a new interview with CEO of Microsoft Gaming Phil Spencer (via CNBC), who confirmed Microsoft loses around $100 on every Xbox Series X sold.
Which is better PS4 or Xbox Series S? ›Though the PS4 Pro has the advantage of larger storage size, the Xbox Series S has it in speed. As the Xbox Series S utilises an SSD, the boot-up time of the console, read/write speeds and game loading times are all faster than you would get with the HDD found in the PS4 Pro.
Is Xbox one or Series S better? ›
Is Xbox One S or Xbox Series S better? Between the two, Xbox Series S undoubtedly comes out on top. It outclasses its last-gen counterpart with improved specs like 1440p output, 120Hz support and a lightning-quick 512GB NVMe SSD. You don't need to be torn between the two, either.
What is the least selling console? ›Atari 5200
The console sold only a little over a million units.
The Mid-Cycle Price Drop Poachers
During this time we usually see several important shifts in a console's life cycle. The first being that all-important initial price drop. Depending on the system's success this can be anywhere between six months to two years (unless it's a Nintendo Switch).
An uneven trend. The decline in distinct physical releases is not being felt equally across major consoles. Across PlayStation consoles, the total number of new physical releases declined over 38 percent from 2018 to 2021, echoing a nearly 31 percent decline on Xbox consoles.
Is it worth upgrading to Xbox Series S? ›Absolutely! The Xbox Series S offers tremendous value wherever you turn, from its Game Pass offering to Xbox All Access. What's more, it is a worthy upgrade for those coming from the previous Xbox One consoles, with faster load times, better frame rates and performance boosts to your existing games.
Is Xbox Series S 4K or 8k? ›Accomplishing faux-4K with the Xbox Series S
This means the Xbox Series S doesn't reach or even attempt to target a 4K resolution in the majority of games. Instead, the budget-oriented current-gen console targets a 1080p-1440p (FHD to QHD) resolution at up to 120 FPS.
In any case, if you're in the market for a new Xbox console, you have two choices. To spare you the suspense, the Xbox Series X is the better console of the two, with better specs, better performance and better prospects for the future.
Which Xbox is the newest? ›Xbox Series X is Microsoft's new flagship, as its most powerful console with over 12TF GPU performance and a custom SSD. It boasts up to 4K resolution and 120 FPS, full backward compatibility across four generations, and ray-tracing support. Experience next-gen gaming for less.
Is the Xbox S next-gen? ›The Series S is a next-gen machine in all the ways that count: specifically, its super-fast NVME storage and robust CPU, both of which are basically identical to its bigger brother, and on a par with the PS5 in terms of raw numbers.
Which one is best PlayStation or Xbox? ›PlayStation offers more advanced features, but Microsoft's console has better overall games. Which was released first, Xbox or PlayStation? The PlayStation came first. The original Xbox (Xbox Original) came out in 2001, and the PlayStation came out in 1994.
Do I have to buy games again for Xbox Series S? ›
If you've purchased titles digitally for Xbox One or Xbox 360 and use the same account to sign in to Xbox Series X|S, the chances are good you've already got games ready to be installed. To check: Press the Xbox button to open the guide, and then select My games & apps > See all.
Is Xbox Series S drawbacks? ›Xbox Series S Cons:
Weaker GPU and less RAM than the Xbox One X. No disc drive. Limited to 1080p/1440p.
If you can get all your gaming in within the constraints of the SSD, the Xbox Series S is a superb little console. It's ideal for the more casual gamer or for someone with a gaming PC or Playstation as their main, but who fancies a little Xbox Games Pass action on the side.
What are the benefits of having a Xbox Series S? ›Get ready for faster load times, higher resolution, more stable frame rates, and better input latency on thousands of Xbox One, Xbox 360, and Original Xbox games.
