These are the Best Xbox Series S Accessories in Summer 2021: Xbox Wireless Headset, Razer Wolverine V2 and more!
Microsoft’s latest gaming consoles, the Xbox Series X and the Series S marked a solid leap for the brand as they introduced well-needed upgrades in the hardware as well as software capabilities. While the Xbox Series X is the larger, more powerful console, the Xbox Series S primarily targets gamers who don’t want to spend a lot but still want to play the latest Xbox titles with enhanced visuals. The console is powered by a custom AMD octa-core processor based on its Zen 2 architecture. It’s clocked at 3.6GHz and with multi-threading, it can go up to 3.4GHz. It comes with 10GB of DDR6 memory while the graphics are handled by AMD’s RDNA2 GPU capable of 4-teraflops performance making use of 20 compute units at 1.565GHz. For storage, there’s a 512GB NVMe SSD out of which about ~364GB is available for the user.
Considering its low price tag of $299, and the fact we’ve tested the smaller console, we’re confident you should invest some extra money in accessories. We aren’t saying you have to, but if you want an overall better experience, then you definitely need to go through our list below.
- If you don't want to spend money on new AA batteries for your Xbox controller every now and then, it's best you get yourself one of these rechargeable battery packs.
- The base storage on the Xbox Series S is limited to about 364GB, and this card will not only expand that, but will also offer the best performance and speeds simlar to the inbuilt storage.
- One of the best third-party controllers for the new Xbox Series S, the Razer Wolverine V2 comes with state of the art tech to enhance your gaming experience.
- If you want to use your Xbox Series S as a media entertainment device, then this remote can help make things easier.
- The new Xbox Wireless Headset is compatibale with all Xbox consoles and also supports Bluetooth connectivity. It features Windows Sonic, Dolby Atmos, and DTS Headphone X and a 15-hour battery life.
- The PowerA Dual Charging Station lets you charge two wireless controllers at the same time and also comes with two rechargeable batteries.
- Having quality audio is a must while gaming, and it can't get any better than Razer's new Kaira Pro wireless gaming headset made for Xbox users.
- A hardshell case to carry your Xbox Series S when you're travelling. It comes with an impact-resistant and lockable design with space to store two controllers and the charging cord alongside the console.
One of the bigger recommendations would be the expansion card, and we reckon a lot of people would need to get one. If you also plan to move your console around, the case also makes sense.
