Xbox One vs. Xbox Series X: Is It Worth Upgrading? | MakeUseOf

Xbox One vs. Xbox Series X: Is It Worth Upgrading? | MakeUseOf

by Malika Karoum / Monday, 07 December 2020 / Published in Malika Karoum Global News

Microsoft claims that the Xbox Series X is its most powerful console yet. The device boasts improved graphics, faster frame rates, and quicker loading times, rivaling many desktop gaming PCs.

However, the question that is on everyone’s lips is whether you should upgrade to an Xbox Series X, or stick with the much-loved Xbox One.

Xbox One vs. Xbox Series X: Specs

Deciding between the two consoles can be more difficult than it seems on the surface. Not only are the Xbox models catered towards different needs, but they also come with different specs.

This is where the magic happens. The Xbox Series X offers some very impressive hardware, especially when you compare it to the Xbox One S, which saw release in August 2016.

Xbox One S Xbox One X Xbox Series X
Teraflops 1.4 6 12
CPU Speed 1.75GHz 2.3GHz 3.8GHz
RAM 8GB DDR3 12GB DDR5 16GB DDR6
Hard Drive Varies 1TB HDD 1TB NVMe SSD
Expandable Storage Yes Yes Yes
Maximum FPS 60 FPS 60 FPS 120 FPS
4K @ 60 FPS No No Yes
Resolution 1080P 4K Upscaling 4K Native Up to 8K
Dolby Vision & Atmos Yes Yes Yes
Blu Ray Yes Yes Yes
USB 3 3 3.1
HDMI 1.4 2.1 2.1
HDR No No Yes
Spatial Audio No Yes Yes
Price $ 299.99 $ 399.00 $ 499.99

Compared to the Xbox One X, the Xbox Series X doubles up on the number of teraflops, making it twice as powerful. The Series X has 12 teraflops, meaning its processor can handle up to 12 trillion calculations per second.

The Xbox One X is Microsoft’s rival to Sony’s PS4 Pro, possessing native 4K resolution, HDR, and some pretty impressive specs compared to the base system.

Whilst the Xbox One X was once the most powerful console on the market, the Xbox Series X has taken the crown and offers significantly more power, and enticing graphics than its predecessor.

Not only do we see massive improvements in terms of technical specs, but Microsoft has also leveraged the latest technologies to make the Xbox Series X somewhat future proof, which is evident in the use of the super-fast 1TB NVMe SSD.

The Xbox One X has a 1TB HDD which still offers plenty of storage but will load games slower compared to the Xbox Series X. Also, don’t forget that Series S titles are significantly smaller in terms of the storage space they consume.

The Xbox Series X’s storage system can improve load speeds by up to 40 times more than a mechanical hard drive, allowing players to enjoy Quick Resume; suspending and resuming multiple games at any one time.

Both the Xbox One X and Xbox Series X can offer expandable storage through USB 3.0 (3.1 on the Xbox Series X) using external hard drives.

The Xbox Series X includes a proprietary drive behind the unit, so you can choose to have an additional 1TB SSD for even more Xbox Series X games.

Xbox One vs. Xbox Series X: Games

With the launch of the Xbox Series X comes some exciting new game titles which you can play right now:

  • Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
  • Watch Dogs Legion
  • Dirt 5

If the cost of the Xbox Series X plus a whole host of games seems too much to digest, you might want to consider the incredible value of the Xbox Game Pass.

You’ll have access to a huge library of Xbox Game Pass games ready to play on your Xbox Series X. These titles will benefit from improved graphics, higher resolution gameplay, and faster loading times.

For players who already own Xbox One, Xbox 360, and even original Xbox games, you’ll be pleased to know the Xbox Series X is backward-compatible.

The Xbox Series X Smart Delivery Advantage

But what happens when developers release a game for the Xbox One X? Well, the Smart Delivery feature means you can enjoy games like Cyberpunk 2077 on the Xbox One X, as well as a free upgrade to the Xbox Series X.

This also means you can continue to enjoy games like Halo Infinite on the Game Pass on your Xbox One X if the Xbox Series X’s price point is not within your budget. If you do eventually upgrade to the Xbox Series X, you won’t have to repurchase the game, and your saved data will carry across too.

Xbox One vs. Xbox Series X: Design

The Xbox Series X box-shaped design takes a very different approach to what Xbox players have been used to. The Xbox Series X has been designed in a way that it can stand up or lay down on its side if you are struggling for space.

Compared to the Xbox One X (5.99cm x 30cm x 24cm), the Xbox Series X is a fair bit larger so you’ll need to make room for it. The Xbox Series X is 15.1cm x 15.1cm x 30.1cm weighing 9.8lbs.

To deal with heat dissipation, the grille at the top lets hot internal air escape from the console housing, so you must be careful with where you place the Xbox Series X. If there are not sufficient cooling measures, the internal fan will need to work harder and become noticeably louder, much like the Xbox One X.

Xbox One vs. Xbox Series X: Controllers

As you may expect, the Xbox Series X comes with a new version of the Xbox Wireless Controller. Aside from the addition of the Share button and the new D-Pad design, the controller is the same as the Xbox One X.

You can use the new Xbox Wireless Controller on the Xbox One and Xbox Series X, boasting a sleek finish for comfortable, long-term play.

Xbox One vs. Xbox Series X: Price

The Xbox Series X costs $ 499 which is the same as the Xbox One was priced at when it was launched.

Microsoft has discontinued the Xbox One X, making it somewhat harder to find. However, if you do come across stock, you’ll probably see a large price drop when you compare it to its original RRP.

It’s been notoriously difficult for people to get their hands on the Xbox Series X, with pre-orders sold out in record time and stock levels flying in and off shelves in a matter of seconds.

Whilst the Xbox Series X does come with a hefty price tag; it does fairly reflect the technology hidden in its sleek black frame making it extremely good value for money for what it is.

Is It Worth Upgrading to the Xbox Series X?

Now that we’ve seen the differences between the Xbox One X and Xbox Series X, it’s time to answer the burning question that’s on every keen Xbox player’s lips.

The Xbox Series X is definitely worth the upgrade. Its enticing technical specs, improved graphics, and new features make it an exciting prospect.

Not only does the Xbox Series X offer a future for gamers, but it also secures a spot for older Xbox generation lovers with backward compatibility, and free upgrades for Xbox Game Pass subscribers.

Microsoft has successfully secured a seamless transition between the Xbox One X and Xbox Series X.
