ACuriousHorse said: Hello there, fellow Xbox gamers! Been lurking on this great thread for several months now and decided to consult your expert advice - is it worth me trading in my Series S for a Series X if I don't have 4k TV? I got my S for very cheap and it does a great job but I kind of want the most 'premium' experience, just not sure if it's worth it when I'm playing on an older telly. Thanks! |
If you want the most premium experience you should buy a 4K TV with VRR and 120hz. As far as playing on a standard HD TV it's still the same games, so unless you're finding games unsightly on Series S already (pretty sure it took much longer last gen before One S performance truly became awful), you should feel comfortable sticking by your original purchase until you're ready for a full upgrade. Hopefully Series X will have better pricing and bundles by then.
Unless you believe there's a good chance you'll upgrade your TV in the near future, I'd honestly suggest to just sit tight and wait it out. You're already on next-gen and you're getting good value. Don't feel pressured for something you don't need until you're sure it's the right time for you.
