H🗹ere’s how the Xbox Series X compares to previous versions of the Xbox. Spoiler alert: it’s real frickin big.
Microsoft struck first in the upcoming console war with a full reveal of the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Xbox Series X’s specs. This includes computational power, where the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Xbox Series X edges out the PS5, as well as full dimensions, where the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Xbox Series X also has the advantage.
It also has that advantage over ever♉y other previous home entertainment console e🤪ver made.
The Xbox Series X is a mother of a console. It’s heavier than all previous Xboxes ever made, and it’s taller than all of them except for the original Xbox One if you stood it on its side. It also doesn’t have the opti𓂃on to be laid down flat because it’s basically a rhombus (meaning it has four equal-length sides so it doesn’t matter how you orient it horizontally) and it doesn't have a horizontal stand.
This is going to cause problems for certain home entertainment setups that have assumed a landscape♎ format for its console🅰s over the past decade.
Let's take a look at how this big chungus of a console is going 🃏to burst your TV stand wide open.
Original Xbox Versus Xbox Series X
Way back in 2001, the original Xbox made a big splash on the come console scene. Not in terms of sales or anything--the PlayStation 1 still outsold the Xbox handily. I mean a LITERAL splash. Compared to the N64, Sega Dreamcast, and t🌺he PS1, the Xbox was huge.
But was it Xbox Series X huge? It was close. In terms of dimensions, the Xbox measured 12.6 x 10.2 x 3.9 inches (320 × 260 × 100mm) and weighed 8.5 pounds (3.85 kg). The Xbox Series X will clock in at 11.8 x 6.0 x 6.0 inches (301 x 151 x 151mm) and weigh 9.8 lbs (4.44 kg). By vo💞lume, the original Xbox was larger, but the Xbox Series X is heavi﷽er.
This doesn’t consider the original Xbox controller, which 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:was so large that smaller chi🐼ldren literally couldn’t reac🌸h the thumbsticks.
Xbox 360 Versus Xbox Series X
Movin' on up, we come to the Xbox 360 which came in 👍two varieties. The original Xbox 360 clocks in at 1ཧ2.2 × 10.2 × 3.2 inches (305 x 260 x 82mm) and weighed 7.7 lbs (3.5 kg). This made it substantially smaller than the original Xbox and also smaller than the Xbox Series X.
But the Xbox 360 Slim was smaller still. Coming in at 10.6 x 10.2 x 3.1 inches (270 x 260 x 78mm), the Xbox 360 Slim made it so that spy🌠 satellites in sp📖ace couldn't tell which side of the console war your living room sided with. It also weighed in at 7.7 lbs, meaning it wasn't too difficult to pick up and bring to a friend's house for a gaming session.
Xbox One Versus Xbox Series X
Now we arrive at the current batch of Xbox consoles where we actually have three Xboxes to talk about. The original version of the Xbox One was slightly 🅘larger than the Xbox 360 at 13.1 x 10.8 x 3.1 inches (333 x 274 x 79mm) and weighed just 7 lbs (3.18 kg). The smaller Xbox One S is 11.6 x 9.1 x 2.5 inches (295 x 230 x 64mm) and weighs just 6.4 lbs. Finally, the Xbox One X is 11.8 x 9.5 x 2.4 inches (300 x 240 x 60mm) and weighs 8.4 lbs.
All of these Xbox Ones are small𒐪er by weight and by volume when compared to the Xbox Series X. What this means for TV cabinets and living rooms across the world, we're not sure, but we suspect there will be quite a bit of remodeling done when the Xbox Series X releases later this holiday season.
