Depends on what your setup is. Since both will be able to run the same games on Series X up to 120fps, it won't be like the Xbox One X vs One S. The One X actually performs better than the One S.

If you're going to be using it with a 1440p monitor, then the Series S makes perfect sense. If you have a 1080p TV, the Series S still makes sense. But if you have a 4K TV, I would choose the Series X. Not only for Series X games, but also for some other enhancements like old Xbox games, where they can run on One X enhanced mode (4K resolution, better frame rates).

Thinking about 4k tv too. Heard that if that 4k tv do not support hdmi 2.1, it will not fully utilise series x & ps5 capabilities and currently only flagship model had hdmi 2.1.

Change my pre-order from series s to x. I think an upgrade of hdd to 1 tb and more powerful gpu is worth the upgrade.

But receive a bit late, under third batch. Haiyaaa...

It should be quite straight forward.

1) create gamertag (SG)
2) buy XBL gold SG (3,6,12 month)
3) buy min $10 gift card SG
4) redeem XBL Gold & $10 gift card on Xbox App or Xbox One
5) buy gamepass on Xbox App using your redeemed gift card $1

that should be it, but its been awhile i last did this, might want to wait others to verify if VPN is needed or any steps are missing.

No need VPN. Just make sure to enable overseas transaction for your credit card. I'm more prefer Argentina store. Game deals and subscription much cheaper

Reviews for XSX/XSS are in!
TL;DR for most reviews: excellent upgrade, great performance headroom compared to PS5, no Series exclusive launch games is a huge blow

While waiting for my XSX to arrive, I think I'll create an Xbox account to load up on GPU. I got a few questions for the Xbox sifus here:

1) What is the best region to create my Xbox account? In terms of sales, ease of getting gift cards etc
2) Can I setup an account in 1 region, and buy games from another? For example, setup Xbox SG account to load up on Xbox Live then convert to GPU, then buy games from Brazilian store
3) If my game is from EU/US, and I have an SG account, how do I purchase the DLC for said game? Can I do it from SG store or do I have to switch to the game region store?

1. For me, the best is Argentina store. Among the cheaper store than others. Can also try Turkey.
2. No need. Can use only 1 account because can change region anytime on console/website.
3. Can. Xbox one dlc are region free. Not sure about the next gen tho. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Thats what i hate with xbox controller...really noisy...

Yes, without a doubt it is noisy but feel more solid and better grip than dualsense and switch. Button on dualsense is quiet but loose compared to series x controller. I own these three and so far xbox series controller is the best
