They all have FreeSync built in.

This choice must come from taste, because that's right, follow your heart. I prefer Xbox, but as I said, it's personal taste. You must weigh everything, for example, cost-benefit, deductibles, etc. I even take into account the console design.

This is exactly what I'm thinking. My desk is downstairs and I have a 4k qled 32" monitor (thinking of getting ultrawide soon) Upstairs in bedroom I have the Samsung oled s95b. So would like to play one game on pc and the same again in bed later once kids asleep. I think il go with Xbox. I have played all PS4 exclusives and will sure miss out on a few especially the new god of war. But Starfield interests me more and the cross save will come in handy! Saves taking my pc upstairs!

i mean xbox is more « pc » than playstation. but that's just a question of taste: the xbox series x has more storage and has more teraflops than the ps5, but the ps5 has more exclusives. so do you want to focus on exclusivity or on performance? performance is pc and xbox, exclusivity is playstation and pc. also I'm team xbox so if you buy a playstation i will hunt you down and obliterate you with an xbox controller and a goose (just kidding, i'm team xbox and open minded, you got nothing to worry about from me)

I found that out when I tried to put a PS5 in the spot my PS4 and PS3 had previously occupied.

Trying to use Steam with spotty or restricted Wi-Fi is a big part of what turned me into a console gamer.

And I did say that in the beginning it's up to that person to buy the PS5, as well as me saying to be careful about how much you're spending.🤷🏾♂️

I had both at one point I had the Xbox mainly for halo and gears of war both my favourite games but ps5 I all ways go back to and it has the most games I like to play and all my offer favourites games for me is ps5. If ps5 has the game you like to play then go with it if Xbox is more what you like to play stay with Xbox and game pass.

Those consoles were also a LOT smaller than the stupidly oversized PS5 lol

I remember the ps2 version. Didn't buy one though. I guess the switch isn't for everyone.

4k one is 60fps I think whereas the other one is 120

I’d rather get a steam deck than a $500 console + a $300 screen

This is a good point. I hope the 120hz one has adaptive framerate though...

Not something to play on a train or airplane, but if you're someone who's in a "permanent travel" job, and don't like the Nintendo Switch, it's handy.
The Xbox 360/PS2/PS3 versions of these were popular in the Navy when I was in. I still have a PS2 one in a drawer.

15" is small enough that you won't tell the difference between a 4k screen and a 2k screen. But you will tell the difference on 60h vs 120hz. So I'd say go with the 2k 120hz one

Are you an image quality guy or a framerate guy?

"Portable"
I am somewhat doubtful of this thing. First off PS5 can't really game that well at 4k, but since they are the same price (which is sus) you might as well get the 4k one.
I want to see pics when this is done.

Don’t listen to anyone on here. Just go with what your gut says.
I was a long time Xbox fan, ever since the very first Xbox on launch day 2001 but when it came to next gen, nothing on XSX interested me. Part of that is my taste in games have changed. I used to enjoy FPS games but now prefer single player story driven games. Ps5 had many more exclusives and single player games that interested me.. so I made the leap of faith and switched. Still kept my old Xbox One X for old games. I don’t regret my decision and love my ps5! I’ve played horizon forbidden west, last of us, deathloop, spider man, and have many more games I’m looking forward to! I find myself playing more games on ps5 then I did on Xbox.
I don’t consider myself a fan boy though. I just go where the games are that I enjoy. If that means jumping ship for future gen, so be it. Life is short, so go with what makes you happy and enjoy it! Even if it means you have to pay a bit more for the games 😂

4k on a screen that size is completely useless.
