Storage Capacity and SSD Processing
You can pack more games into the Series X than the Xbox One. The Series X has a 1 TB of SSD storage, compared to the Xbox One’s 500 GB. With a solid state drive, you can also zip past loading screens, thanks to faster processing.
Other Features: “Quick Resume”
The console now lets you pause multiple games at once and resume them with zero loading screens. This feature is called Quick Resume. Smart Delivery also gives you a free Series X version of any game you buy.
Moreover, you can play all Xbox One games on the Xbox Series X. Play 30 FPS games at 60 FPS and play 60 FPS games at 120 FPS. With these updates, the Series X looks like the beefiest Xbox yet. Will it be worth the wait? Or will the PS5 take the crown?
