T
he newest Xboxes are here, packing plenty of power into boxier frames
than ever. Microsoft’s entries into the latest console generation are the
Xbox Series X, reviewed here, and the Xbox Series S ($299). The Series
X stands at the top of the ladder in terms of power and features, with 4K, HDR
graphics, impressive performance, and incredibly fast load times thanks to its
Zen 2 CPU, RDNA 2 GPU, and SSD storage. It costs $200 more than the Series
S, but the extra power and optical drive are well worth it. The Xbox Series X is
an excellent game system and stands alongside the Sony PlayStation 5 as the
most powerful console for playing games on your TV, earning our Editors’
Choice award.Microsoft Xbox Series X:
