    A good option to the series x. It has enough power to be an upgrade over the xbox one. I would suggest this if you are on a budget.

    Best console ever

    This is truly an amazing console. I was originally going to buy the Xbox series x, but due to the current pandemic, I went with the cheaper option. I am so glad I did. The Xbox series s is so much better then people make it out to be. Really the only downsides to this console is the storage and the disc drive, but even then you can just buy and external hard drive with 2tb of storage. This console is complete and udder overkill for loading games such as gta v. It’s like only 5 seconds and the. You in.

    If you have extra money, get the series X. This little box looks great in the living room and can handle next gen games flawlessly. For the price, it’s a winner. Again, I would get the series X over this if they are in stock.

    Xbox Series S is a Game Pass Boss

    Got my Xbox Series S delivered yesterday and so far I have been very pleased with what it is offering. Lets be honest, this console was built only for the use of Game Pass and that is exactly what I am using it for and its wonderful. Load times are a thing of the past even on older games in Game Pass that were originally very painful (Morrow-wind,Fallout 3,etc) Now I prefer my PS5 still for main play but this console lets me enjoy Xbox's finest in 4K and without any issues.

    This is the cheaper option if you don’t want to spend the money on series x but keep in mind some games won’t be a true 4k..
