Many appreciate the ease of use and fast load times, along with the benefits of Xbox Game Pass.

    Very impressed by the series s. For one it’s tiny very sleek looking and quiet. I have the series x but I wanted this for my room. Setup was easy using the Xbox app. Internal storage is small but I bought a 2tb external to move and store games. Very happy with my purchase.

    It’s a pretty good console for the money but the storage kinda sucks. You can only install a couple of games because games take so much storage now.

    Worth the cost for both Game Pass and Emulation

    Simply put.. If you want to play games using Game Pass, Digital Purchases and/or want an an amazing Emulation Beast... the Series S is for you. Otherwise, wait for the Series X to be more available if you have physical game discs. Highly Recommended.

    Held strong to my expectations. The specs and speed are on point as well as the graphics. I prefer the digital console over having to physically going out searching for particular games or ordering them online having to wait for them to arrive. I am completely satisfied.

    Worth upgrading from the “one”. I also transitioned to a gaming monitor and it’s been incredible. Graphics/gameplay/ everything about it is worth it. Pretty sleek too, and much smaller so it looks good displayed.

    I would have preferred the Xbox Series X, but I couldn't find one to buy. However, this system is perfect for my needs. Love the speed, the price was right and the system is compact enough to store practically anywhere. I have not had any issues or concerns as of yet

    If you don't play a tone load of games and you use a lot of streaming services, the Xbox Series S would be a amazing device to use. Pros: Streams 4K, next gen games, portable, light weight Cons: Limited storage

    This console is much smaller than the original Xbox One I previously had, which is what my brother liked about it. It's perfect for him since he only buys digital games and doesn't want to swap out discs every time he wants play a different game.

    I love it, in size it is super comfortable because it does not take up too much space, I can play my favorite video games at any time, with the game pass it is not necessary to purchase physical games, it is the best!!!

    This thing is very underrated. Its fast and small, and is perfect if you want to travel with just a couple of "essential" games......or stash it in a room/place that wouldn't normally have space for a console setup. Just cant do 8K....oh well.
