I some times get screen tearing on my Xbox seris s does this mean my console need to fix or...

Screen tearing on a TV (or monitor) that does not support VRR is totally normal. The tearing occurs because when the frame rate drops below 60 many console games are designed to disable vertical synchronisation (V-Sync). This helps prevent controller latency, but has the unsightly side affect of screen tearing.

VRR stands for 'Variable Refresh Rate'. Put simply, with VRR enabled, when a game's performance drops, the TV or monitor's refresh rate changes to match the games frame rate. This prevents screen tearing.

Thanks for helping so my console doesn't need to fix or use its warranty right?

That's right, it doesn't.

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

The issue can be with the Xbox console, HDMI cable, or the TV.

Please try using a different TV and a different HDMI cable to test it out.

The issue isn't if console games have screen tearing or not. That is what the VRR is designed to do. It also helps smooth out some screen jittering due to inconsistent frame rates. You are completely entitled to your opinion if it is needed or not, that
was not the purpose of my response.

The reason you don't see screen tearing issues with console games is because the frame rates are generally locked to either 30 or 60 fps. If the system can run the game at a near constant 30 or 60 fps you won't get screen tearing. The only need for VRR
is for the games that developers are turning off the frame limiters on.

However screen tearing on consoles happen. It is infrequent but it does happen. It is usually very quick and most of the time people will not notice it happens.

Here is a video of an example of screen tearing in Borderlands on the XBOX ONE:
