I’d recommend a Series X even for 1440p unless physical space is a big issue.
Main reason being
- the extra 500GB of ssd
- Ray tracing performance of series s probably can’t hit 1440p 30fps.
- back compatible games enhanced performance.

If you’re getting a series S, you will run out of space very quickly.
Which means you’ll either
1. Get the seagate expansion drive (which will raise the price close to the series X)
2. Get a large HDD and run games from there (At this point, might as well get an older one X).

saw watchdog raytracing performance for series s, the graphics looks dated and the raytracing is like lowest setting in PC raytracing. everything is blurry. i agreed with you, top up series x and u still using it for like 5yrs? the cost is spreaded over 5yrs so still ok la. just tat now series x cant get anywhere   

OZ/NZ just launched xbox series. I saw there are good news that they are getting more stock than expected. hopefully same case at singapore side.

While waiting, probably just use PC play the game pass liao 

Not sure when i can get my Series S also.

But series S has something better than One X which is kinda trade off also:

1) Quick Resume
2) Faster loading time
3) Small form body

It all depends on which type of user XD
Other than the space issue, we can actually still plug in bigger size External HDD/SSD and run like Xbox One load speed i guess?

What it really miss is the UHD drive
That's the huge take down if u wanna watch UHD Blu-ray

I bought within 45 mins of the launch from Qisahn.
They’re only delivering my series x on the 30th of November.
No news of expediting from them.

According to them, the launch model sold out in seconds. Pretty much impossible to get unless you use a bot.

Quick resume and faster loading time will only apply if you’re using internal ssd or the proprietary seagate ssd. With only 300GB usable space, you’ll only be able to have 4-6 games loaded onto it. If this is enough for you, then Xbox series S will suit you well. If you’ve a fast internet, it helps mitigate this as well.

Deleting and redownloading games all the time would be a pain I think. At least Xbox Series S/X can copy games to an external drive. Basically when you don't need to play a game, just move it to the external drive. Then when you want to play it, move it back to the internal SSD. I can see myself doing this a lot when I eventually get my Series X next year.

Of all the three main benefits you mentioned, I think I'll be good without them haha.
Never heard of future-proofing a console haha.


There's stock in Amazong SG. Ordered one last night where it says "Released on 10 Nov" instead of "Stock arriving in ... Dec...". Same as XSX but I couldn't decide whether to go for the S or X then gone in a minute.

Amazon SG no longer have available series X.
If you click on series X, it’ll say it’s no longer available.
So your series S is shipping today?

I will try to have a habit of ... play one game at a time until i finish it XD
Currently playing Ori and enjoying this game.

Else like my current gen PS4, horde so many backlog, gg ...
All those PS+ free game claim = forever in library and no touch 

My first proper console was the first PlayStation back in 1999. Since then I have Dreamcast, Saturn, PS2, PS3, PS4, Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One. Not counting my Steam / Origin / Uplay / Epic games library. I've made my peace that I will never finish all my games, not in this lifetime haha. So I just play when I feel like it, then I move on to the next. I barely finished any games on current gen. I literally can count on just one hand the number of games I finished.

Today’s launch day, here I am still waiting for updates from GH.

Ugh

Yeah it sucks bro. And here I was thinking it's not too bad waiting for 2nd batch. Who knew we would need to wait until February 2021. Or could be even longer. Who knows.
