Microsoft unveiled the Xbox One S a few months ago, and it is a sleeker version of the original Xbox One. The Xbox One S supports 4K video and the High Dynamic Range. Microsoft has released the updates of Xbox Scorpio early even though it will be released in 2017 so that the users can make a decision whether to wait for Xbox Scorpio or go with Xbox One S.
So, what does the upcoming Xbox Scorpio have to offer?
The head of Xbox at Microsoft, Phil Spencer, has provided a few updates on the upcoming gaming console. It is expected to offer much more than the Xbox One S.
Let us compare the features and specifications of Xbox One S to Xbox Scorpio:
1. Gaming Performance
Xbox Scorpio offers improved gaming performance with 4K resolution, which is a lot better than that of Xbox One S. The Scorpio offers smooth graphics at 60GHZ frequency while running your games at a higher resolution and that too without compromising on the frame rates. On the other hand, Xbox One S can operate at a maximum frame rate of 30 fps, and this is only till 917MHz frequency.
2. Performance
Xbox Scorpio is expected to be the most powerful Xbox released till date. The capability of Xbox Scorpio is Six-teraflop whereas that of Xbox One S is 1.4-teraflop only. This shows that the performance of Scorpio is expected to be four times better than that of Xbox One S. Xbox Scorpio comes with added AMD chips (game-dedicated), which will support VR, HDR, and 4K gaming.
Xbox One S supports Blu-ray and 4K video playback. However, it can also accommodate HDR gaming, but must I mention, only at a limited capacity.
3. Virtual Reality Support
VR support is being expected to be the strongest selling points of the new Xbox Scorpio. Microsoft has not yet released or even developed its Virtual Reality headsets which mean that the users will have to spend hundreds of dollars for purchasing a headset. Microsoft has not yet announced whether the Xbox Scorpio will be compatible with HTC Vive or Oculus Rift for VR support. The virtual reality support is missing from Xbox One S. So, if you want VR compatible Xbox, then you need to wait for the release of Xbox Scorpio.
4. Streaming Support
The Xbox One S has an advantage over Xbox One when it comes to the streaming support. The Xbox One S which was released recently supports 4K Ultra high-definition Blu-ray along with 4K video playback. Xbox One had a dedicated Kinect port which did not seem relevant to Xbox One. However, Xbox One S has integrated IR (infrared) blaster to aid the users in configuring their gaming console with the other devices to reduce the use of too many remotes.
If we have a look at Xbox Scorpio, it supports 4K Ultra high-definition Blu-ray along with 4K video playback. In addition to this, it will offer HDR streaming support, which in turn provides sharper graphics and better video quality without any lag. If you need best visuals, then wait for the release of Xbox Scorpio.
With Xbox Scorpio, Microsoft will show the world that they are done with the traditional gaming consoles. Now it is up to you to choose Xbox One S or wait for Xbox Scorpio. If you want to order Xbox One S, then waste no time, order it now on Paklap.pk.
