2 YEARS Later... Does the XBOX Series S hold up?

It’s next gen ps5 and Xbox series X/S

[@jeffthompson6162]

The series S is badass. If someone was really worried about getting the best resolution they should be on PC anyway. The series x and PS5 are phenomenal but there really is such a minute difference between them when it comes down to it. Especially if you don't have a monitor that supports the highest resolution and refresh rate anyways. The speed of this console compared to previous gen, the portability, features and price make it the best deal in gaming imo.

[@jdxcoffee]

PREACH Jeff

[@wolfpacak47]

agree 💯

[@beentheredonethat5908]

The ps5 is more then a match for a pc in gaming. Don't get me wrong the pc has plenty of advantages, like mods, and other great features a console can't touch. My ps5 burns pc players all day, I have an advantage for two or three frames, and its not even close to being maximum power yet, games and tvs or monitors can't reach what it can yet, it will play at 8k if you can get a TV or monitor that can match that, which I can't yet. Each has its benefits. My son games on an Xbox s , and its awesome. The game catalog, the size, and the speed are well worth the money at the price tag, we get his at 200 on black Friday, and me being the child I am, I gave it to him so I could play on it sooner haha. I also have a pc, which is my absolute favorite. I am a big cod zombies player, and with the ability to mod and play maps from great creators is by far my favorite way to play. With that said, all and all, my ps5 is my home console, I have upgraded my system to an extra 1T with a Samsung 970 m.2 , new fan, and cover , for most games it is still better for hard-core gaming. Even surprised my pc for most games. In my case , I have a large household. So with 6 children, and wife that is also a hard-core gamer, I have multiple systems, and ways to play, so it's different. If it was just me, we'd have just the pc for zombies lol, I work alot, but I have many because I've gained them overtime to keep the kids from killing each other, I like how many accounts can work on one ps plus subscription, so I save money. My son is a big Xbox guy so he plays that. For 99.9 percent of gamers I'd recommend the Xbox s. It's small, ypu can stream whatever you want through the ultimate game pass, and even use your phone or pc to do so. It is by far the best choice right now for most gamers, I wish u didn't hate the controller so much or I'd use it far more, but I'm a ps player at heart, so between the God of war games, the controller, I'm spoiled. I do wish more people would understand the benefits of the S though, I'll defend that little thing all day!

Tbh your comment doesn’t make sense ,the difference between the series s and last gen console is not really big ,but the series x and ps5 is actually quite big compared to last gen console ,the real new gen console are actually the ps5 and series x , keep in mind we are still in the cross gen time ,they haven’t yet made games specifically for new gens , we will have to wait and see how the series s will perform when Unreal engine 5 games will come out , I’m sure 30fps will return on the series s .

I went from a 360 to a series s, it was like going from being drowned in oil to being in fresh air, such an awesome console

[@jdxcoffee]

Woah, what an upgrade

[@strawberrysherbet96]

That’s a hella upgrade. I remember jumping from the 360 to the one s and I was blown away lol and then I got the one x and then was even more blown away about how much power I was missing the last gen. That’s why rn I’m on a low budget rtx build to start off my pc gaming/building journey

[@michaeljohn2826]

I have the PS5 and PC but got this out of curiosity awhile back when I saw it ridiculously cheap on the Facebook market.. I'll just say this, if all of my stuff was somehow damaged or stolen without a doubt the seriesS would be the first thing I would rush out to replace immediately, yes partly because it's the most affordable thing to replace but also because it unexpectedly became such a vital and loved part of my gaming life and I'd honestly state that it is a much more tidy and satisfying device to have than the other things aswell

[@henkstols9326]

Makes perfect sense as a casual gamer to me, its a low investment that gets you into the latest high end games and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

[@jdxcoffee]

I think that this will turn casuals into a bit more. It’s just that good.

[@TheFallenSithMaster]

Xbox series s is an incredible upgrade from the one s or the original Xbox one. Frame rate from a unstable 30fps to steady 30fps or even 60 fps unlocked for most games I have played is worth getting the system for. Quick launching games and fast loading screens is awesome! I'm very satisfied with how great this system is.

[@AdrianVereda]

Series S is nowadays the best product in a price-quality scenario on its gaming offer (aside from the Steam Deck). Graphics isn't everything when it comes to gaming in my opinion, and being able to play an excellent catalog of games without spending too much money on hardware, should be something to consider. Great video!

[@Jollofmuncher2000]

People buying the series s dont care much about graphics. They might be on the same boat as I playing ark on a mediocre pc. Low res ark looks worse then the original doom trust me the series s knows its audience and is a major upgrade since it can run 120 fps easily. Still looks good regardless because it's next gen so worry not

[@KingOfAnime247]

So for my job we supply oil rigs equipment to keep them running. When that equipment breaks down we are called out to fix it. We supply oil rigs all over the place so a lot of us end up traveling pretty far. For example some of my coworkers are up in Alaska right now. I have really debated on getting the Series S for the portability of it. Especially with the screen attachment. It's great for jobs like that.

[@jdxcoffee]

Dude the screen is great! I plan on doing many reviews on and with it.

[@valdy534LP]

Just bought mine for 200$. It was used for 2 months so I still have 22 month warranty (I'm from Europe) and can't wait for it to arrive. Makes perfect sense for me to use as a gaming device at college since I have a gaming PC at home plus I can get up to 3 years of gamepass ultimate with the live gold trick.

[@bryan101384]

Two year later I love my Series S even more than the when I bought it. Being able to play Fallout 3 at 60 fps at an upscaled 4k on a console is a dream come true for me. Comparing Cyberpunk 2077 running side by side PS5 I was shocked how slight the difference is. The console just continues to improve as developers get used to the current gen hardware. So many games I'm looking forward to now as well. I need Starfield! Lol

[@YoutubeHatesFreeSpeech582]

You are right! 1440p is sub 4k but not alot of difference from 4K. The Series S should be called the "Series Beast". I love mine and I have a Series X and a PS5 Digital as well. You won't be disappointed with the Series S! If you are a Playstation gamer then i really recommend it. Add game pass and you're set.

[@Omar-kl3xp]

If you are planning to keep the console for a very long time I would def not recommend it ,if you can buy a series x or ps5 do it because 30fps will be a so common when unreal engine 5 games will come out .

@@jdxcoffee this is exactly what I wanted to hear :) thank you!

[@volcalstone]

It's the opposite for me. I got the Series X first earlier this year as I wanted to wait for Forza Horizon 5 to be released first. I then signed up for Game Pass and was impressed by it that I signed up for the next 3 years at a super cheap rate. I knew I wanted the Series S as a second console afterwards but I wanted to wait til it was on sale. Got a killer deal for it that brought it down to $150 new. It was a no brainer at that point. I just picked up the xScreen as well while it was on sale for BF. I should be getting it soon now. Can't wait to try it out even tho I already have a portable 1440p@144Hz monitor. The setup will be much better but if I wanted 120Hz then I could use my portable monitor or 4K TV to do so. I too play my Xboxes more then my PS5 which I had since launch and earlier this year got the Plus Premium Plan for 3 years as well for a super cheap price but it's just not as great as Game Pass imo. I like that it works on my PC or tablet too!

I personally find that quick resume is a bit gimicky. I often find perform drops on quick resume games, and if a game requires an online connection you end up getting a disconnect and return to the games start menu which takes the exact same time as a cold launch.

I’ve been feeling like getting back into gaming, I had a ps5 and a gaming pc, but I sold them both since I rarely game anymore, like an hour or two a week, so made no sense in having a flashy console and an expensive gaming pc just gathering dust. The series s is readily available (the series x still isn’t….) and gamepass, seems like a good deal to me. Just trying out games on gamepass when I feel like (and have the time) to play some games. Also I miss playing ms flight simulator 2020. The low storage doesn’t really matter to me, I have a fast internet connection so deleting and re-downloading games ain’t no thing. Although ms download servers probably ain’t as good as steam servers. But, good video man, helped me affirm my thoughts and decision.

I can snag the Series S for $300 less right now. Is the X $300 better or am I better off just getting the S with a fat Hard Drive and pocketing the savings

[@phoenixfaze1]

I have the Seagate 1tb Expansion so atm with the Internet storage and that I actually have 21 games (majority AAA titles) and 22 apps with 68.5gb spare. Factor that with the fact you can cloud game of the S with certain games and the price point plus the load times, quick resume etc I actually think overall its the best console this gen considering the price. I will eventually upgrade to the X but not in a rush an will probably wait for if an upgraded X or PS5 cones out and keep the S as a travel console as its so tiny you can take it anywhere. The Series S is a lil beast of a console!

As someone who refused to pay a scalper for my Series X I’m extremely happy I found one at retail price. It’s been a phenomenal piece of hardware for the past year & a half I’ve owned it. By far the quietest & most powerful console I’ve ever owned. While I see the appeal of the Series S to people wanting to save money it just wasn’t an option for me. I have a huge back catalog of physical 360 & Xbox Original games where not having a disc drive for backwards compatibility would be absolutely detrimental for me. At least you can walk into any store though and purchase a Series S at a moments notice. ***Wanted to come back since I finished watching your vid.. I am absolutely someone who will play “older” classic games on my Newer console to get the improvements that come along with it. It also is a big reason why I will never subscribe to game pass. Spending an extra $180 a year isn’t a viable option for me since I own mostly all the games on there that I want to play/own. The Series X is the definitive way to play any game I throw at the console, new or old.

[@jdxcoffee]

[@sunnywagle8995]

You are absolutely right about upscaled 4k on the Series S!! I have both PS5 digital edition and Series S connected to my 4k 60hz TV. While it's obviously the PS5 that look shaper when I pixel peep, from the ideal distance of a couch gamer which is roughly about 6-8 feet, the difference in the image quality is not that noticeable. 4k is amazing on my PS5 however, upscaled 4k on my Series S is still very much liveable even in 2022. I guess 1080p/1440p gaming is not going anywhere anytime soon. Furthermore, I prefer the design of the Series S over PS5 and to my surprise, it is my PS5 that whines and runs a bit loud while my Series S is dead Silent. Overall, Series S is the best bargain for this generation

It was easy to find for $170 new in box, and I get to play a new game that wasn't released for my dinosaur ps4. On top of that, I can casually jump in and out of games I'd never buy via game pass.

I thought the Series S was $250 normally since it's £250 in the UK and has been on sale at £190 back in November and usually console prices just have the £ changed to a $ with the numbers staying the same, interesting how this seems to have changed as it seems to be $300 normally. I'm so tempted to get a Series S due to the low price but the small disc storage and high cost of the extra internal storage since you have to use that proprietary storage system puts me off.

[@vogonp4287]

Honestly, the most notable difference between the last generation and this one is the cpu. The Zen 2 chips in the Series X/S is a seriously powerful chip. The Jaguar cores in the previous gen were underpowered at the time. They were the reason most games ran at 30 fps on those systems.

[@ChfHappySack]

The no optical drive is what kills it for me. I get that they don't have one in there to keep costs down, but it still really is a necessity for people like me. I have a physical library of original xbox and xbox 360 games and I still want to be able to utilize them. Not to mention it's extremely nice for dvds and blurays. So then you'll probably suggest that I get a series X. I honestly just don't want to fork over $550, so I'll wait for a black friday sale or price drop over time. Otherwise from what I've seen, the series S is fantastic.

[@martinflores7354]

Dam my bad for the twosome 😂

[@vanill4ml335]

i used to play on a low end pc for mostly cs, rl, apex(on really low settings. currently my pc broke down beyond repair after 10 years of service(more worth it to build new). should i buy xbox series s or build another $500 pc ? my only concern is if i'll regret not buying a pc just for games like csgo, valorant. but definitely i'll perform better on games like apex due to the better graphics than my old pc. is giving up csgo more worth it than playing better on apex? should i play more casual games in the future ? xbox and pc owners please help🙏🏽

My series x quick resume after about a year and a half is now slow af 😢

[@beewalk34]

I agree with him. I have both on two different display setups, and I don't see a big difference between S and X.

[@Broke_Guy_78]

Where did you get a TV attachment for Series S???

[@laserspud]

I have a pc but I cant play some games with good frame rate so I was hoping the series s might solve some of my issues. Found a second hand one and looking forward to buy it 🤩

[@DrSwoose]

I'm getting the Series X for the disc drive, the only other Xbox I have the is OG so the backwards compatibility will allow me to catch up, besides 360 and Xbox one games are dirt cheap.

[@hurrycanger]

I wish it were better, but it's just meant to be a crippled next gen console anyways, at least in the sense that it couldn't match the power of the Xbox One X. All last gen games run at lower res like a One S because it simply can't run the One X settings, and One S settings are bad no matter how you look at it. Other than that, I love the S and the fact that it exists for $300 and now down to $200 at some stores. Like you said, it has all the features of the Series X and Quick Resume is so great to have. If you don't mind low res in last gen games and don't mind some games being capped as 30 fps, this thing is great. Recently I've been playing Fortnite on the Seires S on my 55" 4K TV and it's more than enough.

[@jordansunderman5348]

I have a series x in my room. But after some upgrades I have a extra T7 SSD and seagate card I want to buy the series 2 core and a series s to go in my theater room because my projector isn't 4k

[@ryanjay707]

I’m a ps5 guy but I purchased one for Black Friday from Target for 249.99 with a 50 dollar gift card. I’m waiting to open it up when I get the opportunity

[@liammiller9296]

This was the video that convinced me to get the series s instead of the series x. Thanks man

[@babyboy1971]

That monitor is so cool! But didn’t it burn one of your series S machines out? Or was that just because you had other things attached?

[@Ozzy-j2b]

Is that thing plugged into the wall and do you have to leave it plugged in to work?

[@iamdavid3498]

Just bought my series S and I’m just so happy with it. Glad I didn’t spend on the series X. It works perfectly for me as a casual gamer.

[@stevenbaksh5545]

I bought a Xbox Series S on sale and I will be collecting it soon. I came from the Xbox 360 slim. I wonder what my first experience will be compared to my Xbox 360 slim which blew my mind when I first played it. I had that Console for 4 years till some asshole stole it in 2019

[@Leafsfanforever]

Quick resume hardly ever works on my series s. The games almost always crash and I get sent back to the dashboard

[@jdxcoffee]

Online games have a hard time but single player is almost always successful

[@decegrease]

What are you playing at 120 fps on a series s? Idk about that one lol

[@ch3ckm8]

Series S is a genius strategy to get people into game pass. That being said, I think it can be sold even cheaper around $200. At that price point, most people will probably buy it "just because." This console + game pass is a dream come true for casual gamers though

[@Narkissos_1]

i skipped the xbox one and ps4 gen all together since i build a pc. But because i play casual the last years,i figure that maybe is worth to get this than upgrade m pc. Tbh i was so happy with it and i got game pass ultimate for 3 years (100$ offer). Its not like a top tier pc but is cheap and the games gonna be optimize and playable for it for the next 5-6 years ? even for air play or as a media device is rly good and u can stream your games to your pc or ipad/phone if u want to. ofc if u want somthing more powerful for a 4k tv or more nvme storage go for the X or the ps5 (although the game pass and quick resume is nuts).

[@IronPatriot9870]

Series S is mind-blowing for the price point! Have had mine just over a year and just got a Series X this week

[@dmndgina]

I’m really thinking about getting the series s cuz it seem more portable than the ps5 i have but some might say it won’t be worth it

[@DxityDoo]

Ive been debating buying myself a series s as a belated birthday/christmas present to myself as i can get one for pretty cheap. I already own a switch and absolutely adore it but it has been showing its age, especially with the newer releases so I’ve been looking at getting a newer home console to go alongside it. I was debating between a series s or a ps4 really as there are a couple of the ps4 exclusives that I really wanna play (and i cannot afford the other consoles) but i think I’ll get more value out of a series s if only because game pass has so many more games on it than i could realistically physically buy. I think I will eventually buy a PlayStation as well but maybe ill wait until the next console comes out and get a secondhand ps5 or something.

[@blakeloh]

Idk if it was me I would save up for ps5 or jump on a series S. PS4 seems like a waste considering it’s old and outdated. Maybe if the price was low enough for it.

[@filipbarabas8941]

I have a PS4 and a gaming PC and also gaming laptop. The reason that I need to buy the Series S is because I cannot play Red Dead Redemption 1 on PS4 nor PC (i could use an emulator on the pc to run the game but this has it`s own share of problems and it`s better to just buy a second hand PS3). I had a PS3 but unfortunately sold it years ago (played a lot of RDR1 on it). Also the Series S will run the game at 60 fps not 20-25 fps like the PS3 - and that is a major reason to purchase it. Of course I will also get more games for it (maybe get the game pass). I only use 1080p monitors and TV`s so it will be perfect for what i need.

[@FireDrillNinja]

good video, well done!

[@jdxcoffee]

Thanks man.

[@rootgmr6643]

The S is 🔥, I take mine in a shoulder bag on weekend camper breaks. It's the ultimate gamepass / fortnite machine.

[@MasonOfLife]

My biggest issue is just the lack of a disc drive bro, I have tons of Xbox one games I wanna play but can’t

[@jdxcoffee]

Yea that is a set bck

[@CountShadow]

The Series S is still amazing. I picked it up for 150 used in great quality. Try to get a gaming PC that gets a similar performance at that price tag. Also, it only uses around 70-100W of power which a gaming PC also doesn't reach usually.

[@shawnmack1095]

Your channel name got the sub 😂 😂 not the content Im literally commenting before I watch this video... 🖤 ✌🏿.. And yup I'm definitely watching bro

[@jdxcoffee]

Haha. Love it.

[@buschg7106]

I use a C2 with Series S, and it looks NEARLY on par with Series X and PS5. If you have a 1080p display, it actually looks better as it maxes out the capacity without upscaling. Guess I'm saying it looks great on any display, but it's best on C2 if 4k upscaled.

[@eyehatescott]

I’ve had systems ever since the 2600. The Series S is probably my favorite of all time. I got it when I was laid up for and extended time so that might be why, but idk. 😂

[@charliefrancoz]

Hi thanks for your vidéo! Where is your controller come from ?

[@charliefrancoz]

@@jdxcoffee thx ! 🙌🏽

[@goated6146]

There is an obvious downgrade in graphics but to be fair we're very spoiled with graphics nowadays. I personally don't mind the graphics that much and it's only a noticeable flaw in certain games (Hell let loose comes to mind) and with that being said it's not like the affected games look bad theres just some rendering issues. I got mine around thanksgiving last year and I use it every day and I love it. For casual gamers I don't think you can go wrong especially since I see these on sale for under 300 lately.

[@regular_venos1810]

Honestly 1080p is enough with 100-120 hz in video game for me personally

[@chewy8183]

I had the Xbox X One and the series s and I’ve played games on the series x and I love all 3 systems. I didn’t even notice a huge upgrade from the series s to series x so I’d say getting the series s is absolutely worth it. You can get it at Best Buy for $319 right now. I also have the ps5 so there was no reason to go to the series x.

[@eduardorivera3198]

As someone that has to travel every weekend, the Series S size is a godsend. I'd love a PS5 but that huge size played it's role on me going for the S instead. As well the size makes me remember the good old PS2 slim/ GameCube days.

[@jdxcoffee]

Dude the size is clutch. Add that display and you’re killing it!!

[@3DModelsToys]

and you can play PS2/Gamecube games on Series S as well, i mean through emulation. : )
