Rough Size Comparison:
 
I'm curious why they included a hardware scaler in Series S. Modern GPUs can scale a 1440p render target to 4k pretty well. Having a hardware solution makes me wonder if there is something like a fixed AA/sharpening combo that gives a better result.
 
Last gen flops or next gen flops?
He quoted the wrong area:

>> Xbox Series S delivers approximately 3x the GPU performance of Xbox One
~4.2 TF

They continue to advertise that SFS is only on their next gen consoles - so it's either their version of SFS, or the entire SFS feature.

So it seems
 

the fact that they posted this image

It should be official. confusing specs to say the least

Interesting points:

CPU is the same but running at 3.6Ghz and 3.4 with SMT, both 0.2 Ghz slower than the X
20 CUs at 1.565 Ghz = 4Tflops.

Ram is really odd
for the S
10 GB GDDR6 RAM
8GB at 224GB/s
2GB at 56GB/s

for the x
16 GB GDDR6 RAM
10GB at 560GB/s
6GB at 336GB/s

that''s what? less than half?

other stuff is identical
