Series S is a safer pick.

He has all his friends on it and he gets the benefit of improved graphical fidelity but most importantly the speed of the SSD.

This just generally makes your gaming much more pleasurable as everything is so snappy!

Ofc the series s is a digital only console so bear that in mind also.

The switch is, well the switch?

Does he have an interest in Pokémon? Mario? Zelda? I find it rather pointless buying a console that’s just as much or near enough as much a series S when in reality it’s offering you less value for your money.

He also wouldn’t be able to play many of those games with his friends aside from possibly rocket league?

But ultimately value for money is something only you will know.

Friends and if he plays with them a lot are a huge value, let alone the technical improvements of the newer console on its own!

Thank you so much! This is very helpful. I guess a Switch is just something new that I thought he might like but ultimately, he’d use the Series S more and I think he’d be happier with that.

This also gives me relief in the sense of not having to get the X! I would assume the S runs faster, but just didn’t know if it was much of an upgrade from the Xbox One. Ultimately, I just cannot afford the X.

The S alone is a huge upgrade from the standard Xbox one and definitely noticeable.
