Thoughts on the $299 Xbox Series S from Microsoft. It’s such a well priced console but there’s some misunderstanding of what it really is.

who's getting one??
So glad they priced this thing at $299
Yeah Dave , This will launch in India with 40-50% more than its base price . Then they argue why lot of Indian don't buy console . This is the issue " Overpricing ".Same issue with New Laptops of any OEM ( Dell, Asus, Acer etc. ) they charge 40-60% extra than its US counterpart .
I think Dave plays his console on a laptop, that’s why he doesn’t understand the whole point of console manufacturers switching to higher resolution. The TV is a gigantic screen that will always look the best with a higher resolution. You stream apps like Netflix which again look better in 4K. So yeah unless you’re playing your console on laptop with a 15 inch screen, resolution won’t matter.
Its like following the footsteps of iphone 11
4K monitors are still uncommon however 4K TVs are getting in reach … hence 4K tv gaming may turn some of fans into consoles …that’s what Sony and Xbox are betting on
what happened to 4k dave?
Sony: write that down write that down write that down.
Time to join the Xbox SS
Watching it because of Dave. Will continue playing games on my One Plus Nord 😑🙄
I reserve my judgment for when Nvidia announces 3060
This is cheaper than a cell phone mid level
Looks cool 🥁 priced cool
Bro im coping the series s, no dought🤤
Am I the only one from the ancient era of gaming where playing resolution of a game has nothing to do with game download size?
Good job Microsoft 👏🏽
This is Microsoft's winning formula.
But most TV's are just 60hz
Its 230 in the uk
Solid argument – thanks
You explained it the best Dave.
People are complaining how it wouldn't be strong enough for 4k meanwhile I'm here laughing with my 1080p monitor
Its really for people who own a 1080p monitor, like me.
In tech world this year has been sweet
$350- pixel 4a
$299- xbox S
$399- OnePlus Nord
I hope the Oct would be also sweet
I have a ps4 Pro 4k gaming is a thing it's the couch gaming
"Games will be just as NEXT GEN…" shows halo trash quality gameplay
Series S is made for budget gamers that going to use game pass cause theyre too cheap to buy games.
Series X is made for me cause i buy physical only and we need a disc drive so ill eat that extra cost.
this doesn't make sense to me Xbox one x is 6 teraflops and seres s is 4. shouldn't next-gen be more powerful?
Probably going to attract some opposing opinions, but the lack of a disc drive kinda bums me out about the Series S. I'd be all over it otherwise, because you've nailed it here Dave.
Your positivity shines through.
I don't have a 4k tv like a lot of people and I don't plan on getting one anytime soon, so the S would be a better choice in that regard.
The reason they were going after 4k with the ps4 pro and xbox one x was because of more people buying 4k tvs, and they could only upgrade the graphics portion, not the cpu or storage at the time so it was the only option they had to upgarde mid generation.
Serious pc gamers don’t run 4K
Your monitor is going to cost 3 times of console price.
If you want people watching your content who actually seriously buys things to take you seriously then you can't be apologizing for heaps of shit like this.
def picking one up
Just when you think Nvidia just pulled out the biggest uno reverse card, Xbox pulls out the reverse reverse
When are you gonna do a review on the rtx 30 series?
big boii
Imagine buy Xbox Series X and sell it for RTX3070….
3:06 Really, ninja? You ever seen 4K HDR anything? It's f***in gorgeous, bruh.
resolution never matter to me in gaming. i still have a great time playing in 960×540 resolution on my pc.
What Really matters to me is performance and overall smoothness of the gameplay.
so i agree, i think this approach that is less resolution focused is good
I haven’t played on console since 2016, because of the refresh rate. This new console gives people hope…
Finally my first xbox which i can afford
Bro I’m so grateful for this console this is great this is all I wanted to for Microsoft especially being a Xbox player for 10 years now it will be so refreshing to see some new things and having 120 FPS and 1080p is great resolution are just add one to make people by tha game that’s his Sony gets people to buy tha console mostly
Since it has 4k upscaling. This is the console to buy
I'd say series S it's the way to start next gen, just because games won't start improving until 3-4 years later and by that time, you can actually get a better console with more tweaks and maybe performance
Why would I get this when I can get an AMD mountain bike for the same price?
