All You Need to Know About the Xbox S (Pro)
The new gaming console on the market is the Xbox Series S. It is now the most advanced and feature packed console on the market. It offers an all new crisp image and sound from the latest games. Here is a quick review of the Xbox S. You will get a good idea of the pricing and what you can expect out of this gaming console when you read this.
The Xbox Series S offers many gaming options including hardcore frame rates, high definition, quick game updates, and the ability to download your own games. For the price, you get almost everything you want in a gaming console. The Xbox S retails for $500. that is a pretty high price, but when you do get true native 4K resolution and solid gaming performance, you don’t really get much for the money. In testing the Xbox S, we noted that the game loading time was much better than the Wii and that the newer processor speed gave better frame rates.
The Xbox Series S comes with two options when it comes to hard drive size: a 200GB hard drive or a 600-GB hard drive. If you are looking at this gaming console as a media storage device for your home entertainment system, then the hard drive size is probably not going to matter to you. If you are looking at it as a gaming platform for your family’s entertainment system, you may be happy with the smaller hard drive. For the ultimate experience in graphics and video quality, however, you should purchase a larger hard drive. Either way, the Xbox S will still be faster than the Wii and should perform comparable to the PS3.
The new Xbox console has two control schemes: one is the stick-type controller and the second is the infrared sensor. Although the stick controller is more intuitive, many games have changed so that the new infrared motion sensor method is the best for gamers. In many titles, this new system will simply point to the player’s character in the direction that they are looking instead of moving the stick. This is a great feature for racing games and first-person shooters, where aiming means shooting the actor in the next scene. In other games, however, such as first person shooters, it makes a lot of sense to have a trigger on your controller because it is no longer necessary to move the camera to aim.
The other major difference between the Xbox S and the other two major gaming consoles is the architecture of the hardware and the processing power. Both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One use different form factors of architecture, the Xbox S uses an x86-based processor, while the PlayStation 4 uses an AMD Jaguar based processor. This has implications for the type of system that you will need for your gaming needs.
The Xbox S is no slouch when it comes to power though, boasting a powerful AMD Jaguar processor clocked at 1.6ghz and featuring a large memory bus containing up to 2048mb of ram for running all of your games, apps and streaming media. The PlayStation 4 on the other hand features an AMD accelerated code generator that enables it to process large amounts of information and transfer them efficiently to the game disc for fast play. However, it is the Xbox Series S that is truly impressive, with a memory design that is two times larger than the PlayStation 4, and a hard drive that is ten gigabytes larger. In fact, the Xbox S has the ability to process all of the information that the PlayStation 4 can, and it boasts twice the amount of gigabytes of memory.
As well as new features, the new Xbox console has also included some changes to its battery life, including the removal of the AA batteries that are used to power the Xbox One controller. The change in power source means that the Xbox no longer uses these aa batteries to power the console, which means that it will now be able to last for many games without having to be plugged into an external power supply. Although this may not sound like a massive selling point, the aa batteries have been found to be one of the most common reasons why people have problems with their gaming consoles. A quick test using a standard gaming PC revealed that the Xbox’s battery life was much longer when it did not need to be plugged in.
With all of these technological improvements in the new Xbox S console, it is easy to see why it is capable of providing you with a better gaming experience than any previous console. When you take into account all of the backwards compatibility and expansion capabilities, then you can see that there is no reason why you should not be able to play games on this console. The controller, which allows you to play with up to four friends at once, is especially helpful if you are planning on taking your gaming experience to the next level. There is no need to worry about dropping out or getting stuck while playing because you have nobody else to play with. The ability to get access to all of these incredible and new features in one place is something that you simply won’t find with other consoles, and it helps that the Xbox Series S is so affordable.
