this is the new Xbox in detail

We recently found out how big is the playstation 5 And, well, as we suspected, it’s huge, beating even the biggest and heaviest consoles ever, like the Xbox One and the original Xbox. It is clear that the PlayStation 5 is not designed to be securely stacked together with other consoles in a closet or shelf.garlic from the TVviewfinder. The PlayStation 5 is designed to stand up on its own, resting on its stand or placed on its side; its curved top is a threat to consoles that dare to try and land on it.

Instead, the Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X they are more stackable and friendly with the furniture of our living rooms, although I would not risk stacking them on top of each other. The X series comes with a turntable and is simply a more powerful device than the S series. They are intended for two different types of people, so the two are unlikely to end up together under the TV … unless their owners agree marry. If so, congratulations on the wedding and on your many game consoles!

The Xbox Series X measures 12 inches by 6 inches by 6 inches, on the other hand, the S Series measures 11 inches by 6 inches by 6.4 inches. You should stack both consoles on the 6-inch sides only.

Stacking the X series on top of the S series is not a good idea. It looks like a piece of Tetris, but the black S-series disc doesn’t line up with the surrounding white plastic. It will not have stability once stacked, unless you put the X series on its side, in which case its holder will perfectly match the size of the black disc on the S series. S series. It weighs 4.45 kg, while the S series. weighs only 1.95 kg (the PlayStation 5 outperforms both with a weight of 4.54 kg).

This generation has been compared to PCs, which is especially notable when looking at the S and X series ports. Both have a USB-A port on the front next to the power button. On the back, each has an Ethernet port, two additional USB-A ports, a power port, and an extremely PC-like storage expansion port, which looks like the eSATA ports I have on my Synology server. but it is actually based on PCIe 4.0.

Both consoles look like PCs, and I say that without having to turn them on, but I’ll be curious to see if they also sound like a PC. Each has abundant vents to improve airflow, although the position of the airflow on the X series still makes me worry about how it will handle being in a cabinet under a TV where the airflow it can be scarce.

What I don’t care about is the command. The X series comes with a black controller and the S series comes with a white one, and if you’ve used an Xbox 360 or Xbox One controller, they’ll be extremely familiar to you. Microsoft hasn’t opted for big lights or tactile engines in its next generation of controls. Instead, they seem to stay focused on what works. There are only two major changes for most people: the new Share button and the concave D-Pad.

When I finally turn on the Xbox, the Share button should allow me to share stuff (pictures and videos from my games, for example). The D-Pad should allow players to do this street fighter destroy me completely. Either way, it’s hugely different, with a nice loud click when pressing in any direction and a double click when pressing diagonals. The cardinal directions also rise above the shape of the D-Pad, which makes it a little easier to press them and not accidentally diagonally up instead of pressing back.

Unfortunately, the controllers don’t stack as easily as the consoles they ship with. I was able to stack a PS4 and an Xbox One on one of the new Xboxes and I wasn’t worried about them falling out. I don’t know if that will be enough to set it apart from the PlayStation 5 when they arrive in November, but you can rest assured that we will soon have our full and detailed reviews of all these new consoles.
