High speed - small package
|Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] Excellent device for the price. For those competitive gamers out there - it hits the high refresh rate at 1080p. Most modern gaming desktops are gunna be $1100+ for something that the $299 series S can do. Kinda crazy if you ask me.

The Sweet Spot
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Series X makes sense if you want the 4k visual experience but if you are like me and like good, smooth game play over super high res than its an easy choice to save some money and get this instead. I don't keep a lot of games on the console either so 512Gb is enough for me and I really like the small size. Only con would be, I wish it came in black.

Great little system.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this Series S for my friend. He got old waiting on Playstation 5 never in stock. This unit is inferior to the Series X but offer great value for those willing to play using gamepass at nearly a fraction of the cost. 300 for the unit and close to 14 dollars a month for the service you get to install any game that call your attention . No brainer.

Well worth the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't bought a recent console for the last couple of generations. I finally pulled the trigger and really happy with the series s. It's great for casual gamers and people who are just getting back into gaming. The lower price tag also makes it more affordable and a great way to get the latest games. Also Xbox game pass is amazing

Great Budget Console
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Make sure you know what you're getting, but from a value perspective, the Series S is hard to beat. It's a digital only console, meaning no disc games, but pair this with Gamepass, the best value in gaming, and you have an awesome budget package. Sure the PS 5 and and Series X can perform better, but if you are okay with 1080p gaming, then this is the way to go.
I would recommend this to a friend Catch it when you can!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is certainly hard to get at this time, but worth the effort and the wait. It's not as powerful as the series x but it doesn't need to be because its 1080 not 4k. So if a powerful console that does it all on 1080 is what you want - this is it. Get the gold or better yet, get the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate 3 months for $1 and add more months by watching for discounting.
