Gaming Consoles

Microsoft Xbox Series S is positioned as an affordable solution for gamers who want to access next-generation games without having to pay for the power and functionality of the older model. The console supports all the key features of the older model, including HDR, ray tracing and integration with proprietary Xbox services, but focuses on a more modest resolution of 1080p. It is positioned by the manufacturer as an affordable solution for those gamers who do not need the high power of the older Xbox Series X model, but would like to enjoy next-generation games. The console is equipped with a processor based on the AMD Zen 2 architecture with 8 cores operating at a frequency of 3.4 GHz. A vi more→deo chip with a performance of 4 TFLOPS is responsible for graphics, the power of which is almost 2 times inferior to the capabilities of the "older" Xbox Seris S console. The amount of RAM is 10 GB, and the capacity of the built-in drive is 512 GB. The console is equipped with three USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports for connecting accessories and external drives, as well as an HDMI port version 2.1, which supports modern TVs with high refresh rates and a resolution of up to 120 Hz. LAN and Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) are available for connecting to the network. The kit includes a proprietary gamepad, which retains the familiar ergonomics and functionality characteristic of Xbox controllers. It is important to note that the model does not have an optical drive, so all games are downloaded through digital stores or cloud services.

Having replaced the original Wii, this model not only continued the traditions of the series, but also introduced several new original solutions. So, the design of the controller actually blurs the line between desktop and portable consoles: it is actually a separate portable console with a microphone, camera and its own 6.2" touch screen, where, if necessary, you can switch the gameplay from an external screen. At the same time the console is compatible with the games and all the accessories of its predecessor.

A high-end portable console, the successor to the original 3GS, retaining its basic principles and at the same time having a number of changes and improvements. The most noticeable external differences are an expanded set of controls (including a new analogue stick) and larger screen sizes — 3.88" and 3.33". In addition, the set-top box received an improved processor, a microSD slot (instead of SD), an NFC, and improved 3D capabilities. Features such as 3D shooting using the rear camera and tracking the user's eyes from the front have been preserved. But the built-in memory has decreased to 1 GB. The console is compatible with older games for the DS family.

As the first handheld console from Nintendo to support 3D, this model still has very advanced 3D capabilities. So, the upper display is capable of displaying a 3D image visible to the naked eye, and the software part allows you to adjust the “three-dimensional intensity”, and the camera is equipped with a pair of lenses for 3D shooting. The bottom screen is made touch, the delivery set includes a special stylus. Additional equipment includes a Wi-Fi module and an accelerometer with a gyroscope.

An updated version of one of the most popular gaming consoles in the world, which has received a number of significant changes compared to its predecessors. So, the system boasts a new 8-core liquid-cooled CPU and a unique power management system, a powerful graphics card and 12 GB of RAM. The maximum image resolution is 4K, and support for HDR is also provided, which improves the quality of colour reproduction, makes the image more realistic and enhances the impression of depth. Specifically, this modification comes with a built-in 1 TB drive. All existing accessories and games for the Xbox One are compatible with the Xbox One X. The set of ports is notable for three USB 3.0 connectors and more→two HDMI, and you should also pay attention to the optical S / PDIF, which provides the ability to connect 7.1 acoustics.

This desktop console can be called legendary without exaggeration. Completely obsolete in terms of performance, it still remains popular thanks to its unique gameplay: wireless joysticks with accelerometers allow you to simulate the same movements that are used in real life (hitting a tennis racquet, swinging a fishing rod, etc.), but for Due to the huge number of additional accessories, the game becomes even more interesting. Of the technical features, it is worth noting 5.1 sound support and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules.

A portable game console, in fact, a modification of the advanced 3DS model, created with the expectation of simplification and corresponding reduction in price. The simplification affected primarily 3D capabilities — none of the 2DS screens are capable of reproducing 3D (although the camera for creating three-dimensional images has not disappeared). Another difference is the clumsy body. The rest of the characteristics of the device have not changed much: two displays with the same dimensions (3.53 "and 3.02"), a Wi-Fi module, an accelerometer with a gyroscope, flash-based memory (2 GB) plus a card slot. The package includes a stylus and a 4 GB card.

An improved Pro version of the Sony PlayStation 5 gaming console, offering significant improvements over the regular PS5 and PS5 Slim. The console is equipped with an upgraded graphics processor (GPU), which includes 67% more computing units compared to the PlayStation 5 and faster memory. These improvements provide high performance in AAA games of recent years, the requirements of which the regular PS5 often cannot cope with. An additional trump card for increasing performance is the new PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution scaling technology (analogous to DLSS and FST), which uses a frame interpolation system and a built-in upscaler with generation capabilities that, working in tandem, ca more→n increase the average frame rate per second without increasing the load on the processor. The amount of RAM is the same 16 GB GDDR6 as in the original model. The available storage capacity has doubled and now reaches 2048 GB SSD, providing enough space to store a fairly large library of games. In terms of connectivity, the console offers a wide range of options: LAN, Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), Bluetooth, HDMI, one USB C and two USB 3.2 (one gen1 and two gen2). The console comes with one new-generation DualSense controller, the key feature of which is adaptive triggers and an updated haptic feedback system.

A driveless version of the fifth generation of Sony's hit console, loaded to the max, in order to provide comfortable gameplay in 4K at frame rates up to 120 fps. To do this, the set-top box was armed with a powerful hardware “hardware” as part of an AMD Ryzen Zen 2 hybrid 8-core 16-thread processor, an AMD Radeon RDNA 2-based graphics core with a performance of more than 10 teraflops (variable frequency up to 2.23 GHz) and a PCIe 4.0 NVMe solid-state drive for 825 GB. The Sony PlayStation 5 Digital Edition has 16 GB of RAM. The game console is designed in a futuristic black and white colour scheme with blue LED backlighting. Branded accessories are also made to match her appearance: a gamep more→ad, headphones, a remote control, a dual camera and a charging station. The set-top box is subject to a vertical “parking” method and has HDMI, USB 3.2 gen 1 (1 pcs.), USB 3.2 gen 2 (2 pcs.), LAN, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), Bluetooth connection interfaces. Additionally, backwards compatibility with PS4 games is reported.

A retro console released to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the legendary The Legend of Zelda game series that will take you back to the golden age of video games. Such a toy will definitely be appreciated by collectors and gamers who have felt nostalgia, and those who are not familiar with these games will be interested to know how the video entertainment industry began. The device is a compact console that you can take with you anywhere, with a small 2.3-inch screen. Of course, the screen is not touch-sensitive, and you will not find other “benefits” of modern game consoles. But the battery is installed, which provides up to 8 hours of battery life on a single charge. The USB Type-C cabl more→e for charging has become almost the only reminder that it's the 21st century. Management occurs using conventional buttons and a cross. But the most important thing in the Nintendo Game & Watch The Legend of Zelda is, of course, not the equipment, but the games. And there are three of them: Full Legend of Zelda, Zelda II: The adventure of Link and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. In addition, there is also a Vermin mini-game where you have to fight the moles as Link. In true Game & Watch tradition, the console also includes a digital clock and timer that you can interact with. So, on the interactive watch, you can watch how Link explores Hyrule and fights enemies, as well as take control at any time. And the timer shows action scenes from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link.

Another variation on the PSP theme, this time from 2009. This model immediately catches the eye due to the non-standard, within the line, case, made in the slider form factor. For the first time among the models of the family, in addition to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth support appeared, but there is no UMD drive, the console only works with memory cards. The hardware is traditional — a 333 MHz processor and 64 MB of RAM, but the screen has become somewhat smaller — 3.8 ". Traditionally, integration with the PlayStation 3 and PS Network support are provided.

True to its name, this model is a further development and improvement of the advanced desktop console PlayStation 4, modified to meet the top class for the fall of 2016. One of the most striking practical differences from its predecessor was support for 4K video; this became possible primarily due to a new video accelerator with an almost 2.5-fold increase in performance. Processor — also improved, although of the same family — AMD Jaguar; this allowed to keep the amount of RAM at 8 GB.
