    I bought this for my 11 year old son for Christmas. He absolutely loves it! He asked for the X-series, but he said the S-series is just as good (1/2 the cost too)!

    Best entry level console for Xbox. If you can find one at a lower price it’s great having some games at 120 and also ways to use as a emulator power house.

    The Microsoft Xbox Series S is a fantastic gaming system upgrade that continues the legacy of excellence established more than two decades ago with the first Xbox. The console is sized and shaped to fit unobtrusively within an average user's entertainment ecosystem, and the controllers are ergonomic and easy to use.

    I bought this console because I couldn't get my hands on a Series X because of the scalpers galore. I also refuse to pay $800+ for a $500 console. So I opted for the less powerful Series S console. That being said...this console is amazing!! I'm not the type of gamer that focuses on every pixel and framerate, or the density of the graphics. I'm just a gamer. If the game looks pretty, I'm satisfied. Series S does a great job at displaying these games. I play on a 27 inch LG monitor. The picture is amazing. The only thing I would complain about is the storage. By the time the OS is factored in, you only have a little over 300gb of space. Unless you buy external storage.

    Even without the disk slot, it is still an amazing console. I have quite a few games on disk, but they still run just fine on my Xbox One S. Got this console to play driving games like Forza.

    This is a pretty good console. I also have the PS5 now so I use this much less and my siblings really use it as their own now. But for a while, it was my primary console and it was great. The Xbox interface is so smooth and simple to use. I had the Gamepass while I used it and it allowed me to play so many games without buying them outright. One of the bigger downsides of the console is the internal storage size which really only allowed me to have a select few games installed to play at any given moment. I knew that storage would probably be an issue when I purchased it but I only knew for sure once I already had it. Other than that, it ran every single game I played on it smoothly and its smaller form factor helped me save space.
