The price difference between the two devices is due to the type of technology that each uses. The Series X has more robust components, to generate more neat graphics.
Design and color
For now, the two devices have only one type of design and color, each.

The Series S also has a rectangular shape, however thinner and with a huge air vent on the front. In addition, it comes in white.
It is also worth remembering that the Xbox Series X still has a small side entrance for discs, while the Series S works only with digital games, without physical media input.
Because of this, the Series X is more suitable for the public that prefers to have the games “in a box” and collect them to put on the shelf.
Games and accessories
All games in the Xbox Series X catalog will be compatible with the Series S and vice versa. In addit
The same goes for accessories, such as controls, headsets or headphones.
Some of the confirmed titles for both are:
- Marvel’s Avengers
- Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla
- Watch Dogs Legion
- Halo Infinite
- Gears Tactics
- Gears 5
- Forza Horizon 4
- Tetris Effect
Among others that are already available and that are yet to be launched.
Storage
Xbox Series X features 1 TB SSD storage. The Xbox Series S also comes with SSD, but at 512 GB.
Despite being focused only on digital games, the Series S has half the storage of the Series X. However, the two consoles have expandable memories with 1 TB cards or USB port to receive external storage.
Graphic power
Despite running the same games, the Xbox Series X is the most powerful console between the two and, therefore, will be able to start games with more graphics power, generating more beautiful visuals.
The two consoles use eight-core processors, but they differ in the GPU, that is, precisely in graphics processing.
While the Xbox Series X has a 12 Teraflops GPU, the Series S comes with only 4 Teraflops, less than half.
The difference will be noticeable especially on TVs with 4K resolution, but only for those who want to play with as many graphics as possible.
Xbox Series X games will run at 4K resolution at 60 frames per second, while the Series S promises lower resolution, at 1440p, but also at 60 frames per second.
