@@enzovaneyken mainly for graphics but thats just my personal taste, i have a pc so i can notice differences. Series S is just perfect for anyone else tbh
It's just a shame the original Series S came with such little storage. It's a pain having to constantly transfer next gen games from internal to external with only 384Gb of internal space.
I just wish the expansion cards were cheaper. I bought one and it's my favourite accessory because I have both a Series S and X, I travel a lot so I play Series S probably the most. But I can install a big chunk of my games on that expansion card and just grab it from my Series X and plug it into the Series S and my library is instantly all on Series S. The price just sucks, but if it weren't for the price it would be the best accessory. It's vital for me. I'm sucker and I might just buy the 2tb card soon because of how useful it is for me personally. But buying one of Series S alone adds too much to the price. For most at that point it's better to just get the Series X. But it makes me realise that this 1tb model Series S is not such a bad idea after all.
You can install 2 huge games and multiple small ones, not to mention Indies. In my world, that's weeks to game. You can only seriously play 2-3 games at the same time anyway.
I had the OG Series S as I originally couldn’t find a Series X locally and honestly loved everything about it other than the lack of storage. This Carbon Black model is what should have been released originally. If you are going all digital then give more storage than 512gb. However now having a Series X, the power difference between the two is noticeable and I couldn’t go back to the S. Still my kids love it
Well I already have a PS5 so I’m only getting an S just to be able to unlock every game. I wanna play games like Forza, Microsoft flight simulator (the main reason I’m getting it), halo and the OG GTA 4.

This console being so small and now black with double the storage? This is just the way to go man. I know the Series X has better specs, but this is amazing! I don't really care about 4k so I am just in love with this 🥰❤️ (Curious how they made a new shade of black instead of just using the one they had from the Series X but ok 😶)
I don’t get how this channel doesn’t have at least 5 million subscribers. The quality of these videos are seriously great. Your voice is so nice to listen to. Keep on the grind❤
Say what you will about either the S or X, you can't beat the obvious thought that the powers that be at MS put into the packaging. Even unboxing the thing feels special.
Guys u gotta pray I get good marks in my final exams. Then my mother will buy me a xbox series s. Guys please pray I really want a series s. Then I can play gta 6 ❤❤❤
Some would say if they had just made the Series X both digital and with a drive it would save them money but the Series S size helps a lot with people’s gaming set up space. I gave my nephews my Series S and got a Series X but had this been out at the same time I would have gone with this one. Great informative video.
@DavAries95 The thing is, I think a lot of us are technology nerds aswell so we do enjoy seeing how small they can make it. The Series S is just so damn impressively small and stays quiet too
The "S" was about making a product that was cheap as possible to sell to people who just didn't have the money for the Series X. Offering an "X" with both a BD player and without would then have a really cluttered lineup. It made sense to just have the cheapest product that made sense and then the one with all the features. I absolutely DO expect them to come out with a new XBox Series X where the BluRay drive is removed though... not due to price but simply because console makers want to get rid of games on disc. Microsoft got attacked when they tried the first time with the XBox One so the way to do it now is to just offer a CHOICE and then just phase things out more gradually.
Got the black series s today, I'm loving it so far! For anyone asking, Buy the black rather than white. Worth the 50 extra dollars It's basically just as good as the series x.
Already built I bet they Just hold back the shitbags. I recently bought series X and just days ago ps5 . I should held back longer .held back untill slim disc Xbox and slim disc playstation. Then wait for them to go on sale lol . They should release day one but they make money wait years and so on . Technology is there for Xbox pc
If they release a slim version of Series X that is just as small as the Series S, that's a day one purchase for me. I don't even care about the disc tray since I'd only want it as a secondary console for Gamepass, but I still want the most out of my games when it comes to resolution and framerate, that's why I haven't gone for the Series S yet
@@Pakitorocker yeah, I think competition from Sony is going to push them to launch a slimmer series x. This year Sony is realsing a slightly slimmer PS5 and next year a much slimmer PS5 as well as a PS5 pro. Series X will have to become smaller as well since we’re now on 3nm
This little machine is my most played. I have a series X and playstation five, yet this little machine is what I play the most, apex legends and Forza horizon five on a 1080p 120hrz monitor. This release makes me want to buy another unit.
I must admit the black is alot cleaner. I literally just purchased the Xbox S in white yesterday from target. It came with a gilded hunter package deal (Fornite, Rocket League, & Fallguys). They should have just released both colors and offered the 1T for both. I'll be keeping a eye out if they do release the white with additianl storage. The white flows more with my work/desktop aesthetic.
I love my Series S. I also have a Series X but I have to travel often so I mostly play on Series S, it fits into a small backpack and most TVs I have access to are 1080p. Back home on my 4K TV 90% of games are incredibly close to how they look and run on Series X. I've fallen in love with it. On top of everything you mentioned one of my favourite things about it is the backwards compatibility. I'm playing Fallout 3 and New Vegas again, and it's amazing to play them in 60fps and Fallout 3 runs in 1440p native even on Series S! ... It's more interesting to me and fun to follow how well Series S runs games. I had a similar fascination with Switch. I love the underdog. I want to get a new storage card but I'm tempted to get a second Series S 1tb model just for fun. I'll probably end up getting the card but it's very tempting, love the new colour and very cool to learn that it's actually not exactly the same colour as Series X.
I specifically got a series s over a ps5 due to the fact i could play F3 and NV with all the DLC properly. Always been a playstation player since the ps2 days but PS now was crap, and the PS5 was too hard to find plus the price. Ended up buying a series s and an elite controller. Boss decision.
@Cosmic-Wanderer how is ps crap now? More exclusive games whilst Ms just kept making different controllers lmao. I own both system and play both but in no way is ps crap
honestly i think they shoulda have went with 2 color options, all white, and then the carbon black. I think that they would make hella sales off of that. Love your videos man! Wondering if you would do a starfield review?
I just received mine yesterday. My first Xbox after being a longtime Playstation player. Also, my first current gen model. I bought it as it was a great price and because I haven't bought a physical copy of a game in about 5 years so being able to stream or download suits me perfectly. Also, I am not too concerned about the 4k resolution as I don't have a 4k TV where I play this and I still think games look great on the PS4 so it was a no brainer for me. I only waited as I really dislike white consoles as they do not match with my system set up.
looks amazing but i would pick it up if they made it the new 300 dollar option. 350 is too much when the white goes on sale frequently and so does the 1tb expansion, sometimes less than 350 for BOTH.
I am so glad that Xbox has added more storage space on the Series S, which means more and upcoming games can be downloaded. Carbon Black Xbox🖤Enjoyed the video so far
CARBON BLACK! That thing is so gorgeous. SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESH. Also props to XBOX for having what looks like Brail markers for the different ports at the back. Everyone deserves to game.
GOT MINE arriving today and Starfield i am so hyped for aswell and cannot wait to play it on the new upgraded series s 1TB Hyped up ain't even the word this is awesome for gaming
Hint with game pass. I have the series S but I usually use my PS5. With my series S I was using Game Pass Ultimate paying £10.99 a month and then realised they’re was a standard game pass for £8.99 for console. Use the standard if you don’t care for playing online with people and just want to play single player games. Will save a little bit :) Disclaimer: The Ultimate pass also gives the subscription to EA and Ubisoft membership.
@@dublinairportplanes I have PS5 and standard plates look bad, i went with black/red ones from D-brand, standard controller is fine but not better than the DS Edge.
@@dublinairportplanesThe Xbox in general is generic looking but offers more then PlayStation such as game pass and backwards compatibility. They're both the same thing in the end so...
5:11 Those 296gb would've perfectly fit on the white Series S and you'd still have ~100gb left, so yeah, great point for the new black one 👏😁 The actual restricting resource in gaming (or in life general) is time, not harddrive-space and what you can install with ~400gb SSD is more than enough.
If one owns a PS5 already, the Series S is the best value console in the market. If one owns a Series X, I still feel the same. If you want to take your Xbox games around on vacations or to a friend or family member's place, it's just easier with the slim build. The 1TB SSD model is clearly the way to go right now. I do wish they release a white 1TB model, and remove the 512gb.
Oh this is actually sexy. My gaming setup is all Black. But I've never actually owned an Xbox and don't know anyone with one lol. Still, I want it somehow.
Man its crazy how good upscaling is, especially if it can retain such detail to where on 77" which kinda starts to push the pixel desity visually is still a great image, now put that on a more accessible smaller tv, perfect 👌
Very nice, Series S is amazingly small and fast. Now it will camouflage in a setup. Very interesting how it's more of a super dark grey but still nice. I wonder how a White Series X would look but would probably still out like a sore thumb lol
Technically, you are losing out: when compared to the Series X, there are cases of lesser performance, especially resolution, and a lack of split-screen multi-player in Baldur's Gate 3 (I believe).
Somehow carbon black suits the S better than "dark" black would, subtle difference but somehow makes a change if you're used to all plain black things.. I just wish they would refresh the specs
I wish they would have launched with a 1 tb. I have a series X and S and I love the S. It’s such a bargain. I really can’t tell the difference between the two when I’m playing games.
It’s truly dependent on the game. I have both and each has been trouble free. Certain games like Apex Legends play better on the Series X. Respawn confirmed it released a next-gen update that only the PS5 and Series X owners will notice. I can tell it’s brighter and the textures are cleaner on the Series X. The additional memory and specs on the Series X are only going to be beneficial in the long run. Still I love my Series S as I’ve had it longer since I couldn’t find a Series X in my area without paying a arm and a leg for it.
I bought the series S day one. I haven't been let down yet. I quit using disk drive years ago. I couldn't bet the deal, i imagine they even lost money selling it as cheap as they have.
At first I wondered what I should get and finally decided for a S. The logic behind it was that 95% of my Xbox One and Xbox 360 were digital and because the new gen is 100% back compatible with the One and 90% of my 360 games were also compat there was no point in me spending extra $$$ in a console for physical media which still doesn't play the game from the disc but from the hard drive. I got my S a couple of months after launch and I'm super pleased with it. The worst case scenario is that I have to move to and from the internal SSD to the external HDD, something that I do at night if I plan to play games that don't run from the HDD. Having more storage is very cool and I think is a good move from MS since those external cards cost a friggin arm and an eye in my country.
I just wish there was a version like this that came with a disc drive! I don't need the latest and greatest in XBox graphics, but would still like to play their games albeit in physical media! Great review though, and the console absolutely does look slick!
I Have Xbox Series S (Original) And It Honestly Runs Really Great Making It The Best Console I Have Ever Owned My Xbox Goes Up To 4K (Upscaled) 120Fps And Looks Really Crisp Specially On Forza Horizon 5 !!

it’s a good day when spawnpoiint posts about Xbox
I'm trying to cover it all!
thanks for this

If one owns a PS5 already, the Series S is the best value console in the market.
If one owns a Series X, I still feel the same. If you want to take your Xbox games around on vacations or to a friend or family member's place, it's just easier with the slim build.
The 1TB SSD model is clearly the way to go right now. I do wish they release a white 1TB model, and remove the 512gb.
I don't find any value in the series s :/
I have a series s and I love it! It’s amazing to own. Once I get a ps5 soon I can’t wait to have them together!
That's the dream team, having both!
I’m a busy dad of two. Haven’t had a console in 6 years. You’ve sold me.
Excellent video Spawn and yes one of these are on my radar along with a PS5.
I just bought one today! Upgraded my ps4 to the Xbox series S 1tb console. Pretty stoked!
Criminally underated
It's a crazy little console, everyone needs one (if they don't have an Xbox).
Criminally underperformed
@@who_else_but_dee2821 Do you own one?
@@donnieb602 I did……sold it and got a series x instead
@@who_else_but_dee2821 I got a Series X also so why are you calling a $250 console underperforming Series S is a steal for that price
Oh this is actually sexy. My gaming setup is all Black. But I've never actually owned an Xbox and don't know anyone with one lol.
Still, I want it somehow.
NEW SPAWNPOINT VIDEO LETSSS-A-GOOOOO! 🎉
haha let's goooo!
@@SpawnPoiint YOOOOO thank u soooo much for replying ❤
Man its crazy how good upscaling is, especially if it can retain such detail to where on 77" which kinda starts to push the pixel desity visually is still a great image, now put that on a more accessible smaller tv, perfect 👌
Love your vids keep the up the good work
Thanks for the support!
All they need to do now is add a Blu-ray drive, keep it at the same price and then it’d be worth picking up.
A digital PS5 cost only $50 more and you get so much more power.
Really feel the price doesn’t make much sense.
Finally someone said it.
Carbon Black Xbox, the dark gray looks so nice😎
Very nice, Series S is amazingly small and fast. Now it will camouflage in a setup. Very interesting how it's more of a super dark grey but still nice. I wonder how a White Series X would look but would probably still out like a sore thumb lol
Carbon Black Xbox 😊
I have a series X but I must admit this looks really good in black, real smooth and sleek. Great review
Looks clean! ❤
Carbon Black Xbox! Great breakdown! Thanks! I have a ps5 but would like some older games on game pass been thinking of getting this console.
Technically, you are losing out: when compared to the Series X, there are cases of lesser performance, especially resolution, and a lack of split-screen multi-player in Baldur's Gate 3 (I believe).
Somehow carbon black suits the S better than "dark" black would, subtle difference but somehow makes a change if you're used to all plain black things.. I just wish they would refresh the specs
I wish they would have launched with a 1 tb. I have a series X and S and I love the S. It’s such a bargain. I really can’t tell the difference between the two when I’m playing games.
Same here. In fact, I have had more issues with my X than S.
@@LaynithanDarling my disk drive on the X doesn’t work sometime.
It’s truly dependent on the game. I have both and each has been trouble free. Certain games like Apex Legends play better on the Series X. Respawn confirmed it released a next-gen update that only the PS5 and Series X owners will notice. I can tell it’s brighter and the textures are cleaner on the Series X. The additional memory and specs on the Series X are only going to be beneficial in the long run. Still I love my Series S as I’ve had it longer since I couldn’t find a Series X in my area without paying a arm and a leg for it.
Carbon black looks really clean. Will be picking this up for sure & lend my white series S to a friend..
Carbon Black Xbox!
Thanks for watching.
@@SpawnPoiint keep up the good work!
I bought the series S day one. I haven't been let down yet. I quit using disk drive years ago. I couldn't bet the deal, i imagine they even lost money selling it as cheap as they have.
It's such a cute little series x baby
hahah it sure is
Awesome video as always man! I’m definitely picking one of these up.
only if i can afford it
At first I wondered what I should get and finally decided for a S.
The logic behind it was that 95% of my Xbox One and Xbox 360 were digital and because the new gen is 100% back compatible with the One and 90% of my 360 games were also compat there was no point in me spending extra $$$ in a console for physical media which still doesn't play the game from the disc but from the hard drive.
I got my S a couple of months after launch and I'm super pleased with it.
The worst case scenario is that I have to move to and from the internal SSD to the external HDD, something that I do at night if I plan to play games that don't run from the HDD.
Having more storage is very cool and I think is a good move from MS since those external cards cost a friggin arm and an eye in my country.
I see why the series s exists, but I wish it didn't. Probably a hot take lol. I think it's holding back the xbox
Also! Great video! :D
Pre-ordered from Target back in June it got here Wednesday afternoon! Had 2 days and it’s running great.
Just finally ordered an upgrade, i wanted the black one over the white one, i can’t wait til my xbox gets here😁
I just wish there was a version like this that came with a disc drive! I don't need the latest and greatest in XBox graphics, but would still like to play their games albeit in physical media! Great review though, and the console absolutely does look slick!
bro needs more subscribers!!!! love your work
Carbon Black Xbox
I really love you man
When i see that u uploaded a new video i get happy cuz ur videos are awesome
Keep it up man ❤
They should have added a 1TB drive from the beginning, why not just release a discless Series X alongside the disc version.
i've pre-ordered it. bro i'm so excited :D
I Have Xbox Series S (Original) And It Honestly Runs Really Great Making It The Best Console I Have Ever Owned My Xbox Goes Up To 4K (Upscaled) 120Fps And Looks Really Crisp Specially On Forza Horizon 5 !!
Beautiful speakers!
I was waiting so long for an unboxing ❤❤ im buying one on boxing day
just bough one for my son for christmas and wanted to see how it looks
you are a good parent
You are an amazing parent ❤
Seems like you watched the video to learn more about your purchase for your son. Great parenting, your son will appreciate that
Cant wait just getting my new xbox this sunday been waiting to play next gen games for ages
I want this one but I think I am going to wait till black Friday. I have feeling it is going to go on sale and if it is under $300 I'll pick it up!
Videolarınızdaki Türkçe altyazı seçeneği için teşekkürler. Keyifle izliyorum.
“Carbon Black Xbox” yea if I didn’t already have a series X, this would be the console I’d go for certainly! 🔥👏👌
The controllers are exactly the same. They've been selling the 'carbon black' controller since launch.
CARBON BLACK XBOX.
I am going to buy it. I was thinking betwen this 1tb model and used X... but you made me buy this one it looks clean asf. Great video. Thanks sir.
I love your videos. I was wondering if you could cover the best affordable streaming setups (including the pc)
Carbon Black Xbox.
That Home Theater set up is clean! Is your reciever hidden inside the cabinets?
using AA Rechargeable Batteries are Great
This should have been the standard series S console from day one.
STARFIELD runs like butter,.. 1440p and looks really gorgeous,..
900p upscaled to 1440p using FSR2
If this had a disc drive I would've got it on day one. I'm selling my Series S and I'll buy this one since it has more storage.
Just buy additional storage card. Selling yours used and buying this new €350 one will cost you like 150€ total
