In terms of raw hardware power, the Xbox Series X is indeed more powerful than the Series S. The Xbox Series X has a more powerful GPU, more RAM, and a larger storage capacity, enabling it to run games at native 4K resolution, while the Series S targets 1440p resolution. However, the Series S still offers many of the next-gen features that the Series X does, such as fast SSD storage for quick load times, ray tracing support, and 120Hz gaming at lower resolutions. Its smaller size and lower price point also make it an attractive option for those who prioritize affordability and compactness. Both consoles have their strengths and are tailored to different gaming needs.
