    Great system! I fought the full digital library idea for quite some time but game pass makes it way to easy and cost effective. Purchased this for my son and we share our game pass. System is small and compact for the amazing graphics. No issues what so ever and has a small footprint on his dresser.

    People talk about this console as the unwanted child but personally if i had kids and they wanted to play next gen(current gen), this is it. For the price, you really can’t beat the Xbox Series S WITH GAMEPASS. That part is essentially.

    I was super excited to get this new Xbox and every time I got closer to Best Buy my excitement kept rising. I would definitely recommend this for the price it is. The packaging alone was beautiful along with the Xbox. The Xbox is so small that u can carry it with one hand even if your were a kid. Xbox did and great job creating this!

    This console does everything the series x does just at 1440p, and trust me, you'll be hard-pressed to find the difference from a normal tv viewing distance. Gears 5 at 120fps is incredible and it is amazing even on my LGTV from 4 year's ago. Disc drives don't matter to me when you have game pass. This console is a small form factor beast.

    Lovw this console. Pairs well with gamepass especially since you can just stream the games instead of downloading if youre worried about space. But you have to have a great internet connection. Also one con i have is why on 512gb? After you set it up. You only have about 400gb or less to use. They pulled an apple with the memeory cards tho. Other than thay. Definitely a great bang for your buck especially with all of the next gen perks !

    I got this console for one of my best friends. I got to say, it’s probably the best decision I’ve ever made, playing with him on a new gen console is easier for the both of us

    I came from an Xbox one and wow all I can say this is an affordable and a powerful machine. I love the grips on the controller and how compact the series s is. It supports native 1440p 120hz but it can upscale 1440p to 4k 60hz on my dell monitor. Overall great console.

    Affordable and effective. $326 after taxes. Perfect if you’re just trying to play games and have fun. Recommend higher gigs sooner than later 512 is not so much for a system. Great buy tho!
