Each console generation marks an era, leaving indelible marks on gamers. In the case of Xbox, every step has been crucial in consolidating a vision centered on community, barrier-free gaming, and constant innovation. It’s true that it hasn’t been an easy road, but here we are, in the place we love so much.
It was on November 10, 2020, that Microsoft took a monumental leap with the launch of Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, two consoles designed for different types of gamers, but with the same purpose: to take the gaming experience to the next level.
Celebrating a fifth anniversary of great fun
Today, we commemorate the fifth anniversary of Xbox Series, a stage that has demonstrated Microsoft’s commitment to offering a flexible, accessible, and story-filled ecosystem. Having two models was a smart move, and I say that from experience: I chose the one that best fit my budget, and I still enjoyed all the power, fluidity, and magic that defines this console family.
Xbox Series S: the little big beast
We got a completely digital console, and if it’s accompanied by Xbox Game Pass, it’s undoubtedly an excellent option for those new to Xbox or this generation. However, it lacks 4K and a disc drive, and its 512 GB hard drive may fall a bit short.
- GPU power: 4 teraflops
- CPU: AMD Zen 2 with 8 cores at 3.6 GHz (3.4 GHz with SMT)
- AMD RDNA 2 GPU with 20 CUs at 1,565 GHz
- RAM: 10 GB GDDR6
- Resolution: 1440p at 60 FPS, up to 120 FPS
- Storage: Custom 512 GB NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD
- No disc drive, completely digital

Xbox Series X: the big black mamba (for its power and elegance)
A beautiful console with much superior performance to the Series S, it offers a disc drive, 4K resolution, and more powerful hardware, designed for a more demanding user. Without a doubt, it’s the most robust option between the two Xbox Series.
- GPU power: 12.15 teraflops
- CPU: AMD Zen 2 with 8 cores at 3.8 GHz (3.6 GHz with SMT)
- AMD RDNA 2 GPU with 52 CUs at 1,825 GHz

Xbox Play Anywhere
Games with this seal provide us with a bonus that no player would want to miss, as we can have the same title, paying only once and enjoying it on PC or our Xbox ecosystem. Definitely an incentive that no one would want to pass up.
Xbox Game Pass
It’s true that there’s controversy over the price increase, but there are many titles that can be enjoyed, depending on the type of subscription you choose. Either way, there’s an extensive catalog that can still be enjoyed with your Xbox Series consoles.
They’re a duo that adapts to our needs, whether it’s price or space, and will always be well-received by those of us passionate about this hobby. Additionally, the Xbox Game Pass service is its perfect complement, despite the complex decisions Microsoft has made regarding it.
