The controllers look more or less like their Xbox One predecessors, and they both come with all the cables y'all'll need to get them up and running.

At nowadays, all nosotros can discuss is the consoles' physical designs, so analysis of gameplay, interface, streaming video and all those other meaty topics will have to look a little while longer. But if y'all want to know what you lot make it the Xbox Series 10 and Xbox Serial South boxes, how the consoles expect, and what kind of connections each one offers, read on.

Xbox Serial X

Microsoft gave us our get-go expect at the Xbox Series X a long time ago, so there are no large surprises hither. The panel is a large, rectangular blackness box (12 x six x vi inches) with big, circular vents on the top. (These vents actually do have tasteful green highlights, just like the marketing photos suggest, and they expect pretty absurd.) Each side is manifestly black with a matte finish; one has an Xbox logo, and the other has rubber anxiety for a horizontal configuration. The lesser of the device also has one large, circular condom foot.

The front of the console houses a ability button, a disc slot, a disc eject button, a pairing push button and a USB-A port. On the back, you'll discover a small vent up top and larger vents below, with two USB-A ports, a storage expansion slot, an HDMI port, an Ethernet port and a ability port. There'southward even a slot for a Kensington lock, which is a nice affect if you program to travel with your device.

Overall, the Xbox Serial 10 is a gorgeous, minimalist gadget that looks like a smaller, squatter tower PC. My just big complaint is that there's no USB-C port — a useful feature now, and ane that volition be absolutely indispensable over the next few years.

Xbox Series S

I knew the Xbox Serial South was going to be small, but seeing information technology in person, it's fifty-fifty smaller than I expected — easily the trimmest console I've seen since the PS2 Slim. At roughly 11 10 six ten three inches, information technology's near two-thirds the size of an Xbox One S, merely much more powerful. While it doesn't accept the aforementioned robust specs as the Xbox Series X, the Xbox Series South does indeed promise quad Hard disk resolution and 120 fps frame rates, at to the lowest degree for certain games.

The Xbox Series Due south likewise works in either vertical or horizontal configurations, with rubber feet on both the lesser and one side of the device. There are vents everywhere, from a big, black, round one on top, to two big ones on the side, and one small one on the lesser.

There's barely annihilation on the front of the device: simply a pairing button, a USB-A port and a power button. The dorsum of the Xbox Series S is better-equipped, with an Ethernet port, ii USB-A slots, an HDMI port, a storage expansion slot and a power port. Once more, a USB-C input somewhere would have been forward-thinking, but it's hard to think of anything else the system is missing.

At that place'due south not also much to say near the Xbox Series X/S controller. The Series 10 comes with a black one; the Series S comes with a white i. They're nearly identical to the Xbox I controllers, complete with replaceable AA batteries instead of rechargeable packs.

There are only two noticeable differences: A new Share push button located dead-center, and a hybrid D-pad with a circular track around it. Nosotros won't know much most the Share button until we get to endeavour the panel out, but the D-pad feels comfortable, and should prove specially handy for fighting game players.

The Xbox Serial Ten/S controllers also accept some light texturing on the dorsum of the grips. Otherwise, though, they feel the same as the Xbox One controllers in terms of weight, button responsiveness, materials and so forth.

For the moment, I tin can say that both systems look appealing, and they're both reasonably sized — particularly compared to the gargantuan PS5. We'll report back as soon as nosotros can on how they run games, videos, music and more.
