This is fantastic for our small living space. Our son can now play with his siblings that live far away and we aren’t finding space for a hundred games. Definitely recommend

I will give a few quick cons then a pro. Cons: 1. Storage space. Period. Large next gen games, expect to only have 3 or 4 games installed at a time. The usable amount is not the 500gb. It was more around 400 I believe. The games are so large on next gen consoles and can easily fill up. 2. The system is good and next gen, however it is not a huge leap over the Xbox One X (In my opinion). At the price you are paying, the extra $200 for the Series X is literally a huge difference maker and I believe you would be better off trying to obtain one over this. I think it should be cheaper because the gap between the consoles is very significant. Pro: Ray tracing. This is what the Xbox One X did not have and will be the most noticable thing from the jump to the Series S. It is beautiful, however runs better on the Series X. Again, my opinion. Overview: All in all, I wish I would have bought two Series X consoles over one each. The Series X has a 1Tb SSD and the useable space is up in the 800s gb. So there is more potential there. I would only buy this console if it were for a younger child who can't tell the difference in gaming and you wanted to get them on the next gen systems, but don't be surprised when they complain about harddrive space.

I love the new series s. excellent system just like my xbox one x in the living room. This on is in my bedroom on my desk with my gaming pc setup. Gamepass is awesome as well! I just upgraded my pc so i have a very nice entertainment set up.

Don't let people tell you otherwise, this is an amazing little piece of hardware. I already had a Xbox Series X and I wanted to add this one to my upstairs loft and it does not disappoint. Fast load times, 1440p resolution and 60fps are all possible with this console. I have my older games on an external drive so there is plenty of storage. For games that take advantage of the advanced features this console is capable of, I have installed on the internal storage. I already have the Segate 1TB expansion for my Series X and if there is a game I want to play upstairs, I simply plug it in to the Series S and away I go. The value to cost makes this console a must have!

This was a gift for my son. He has been going through it the last couple of years. I am so proud of him getting his BA Degree and helping support his girlfriend get her Master Degree. He had been playing in the original Xbox that I bought him in college and to help take some of the daily stress off of him I surprised him with this new Xbox system. He loves it. He said his experience of picking it up and how quickly the games load has given baby boy a chance to relax and enjoy his new Xbox.

Great console for price!! Would highly recommend for any new gamers

I love this thing. I didnt want to buy the series x because im mostly a pc player and the price. the series s is perfect to play “sports” games and the price is unbeatable

I enjoy it .. I’m able to play with all of my friends online

This Xbox was bought as a Christmas gift for my son. He says it is “awesome” Thank you for having a good experience in ordering this Xbox and picking it up in the store.

My son loves his new XBox. He sold his PS4 and bought another newer version XBox. We will buy another one when it is time.

Got this as a very special Christmas gift from our nephews. Somehow they found out a Best Buy near them had series S systems a few days after Christmas, they didn’t keep it for themselves but gave it to me because they knew the new Xbox was something I wanted. Going for a Xbox one S is easy, we kept most of our games on portable hard drive so swapped it over. It feels a little underwhelming at first because the interface looks just like the Xbox one but man is it faster. All the old app work great, seem to load quicker and in some cases look better. Biggest gripe is the internal storage is too small, I know it’s cutting edge and expensive but it’s easy to fill up. For example COD War Zone and black ops filled the disk, when the update came the both could no longer fit. Do we bought the 1tb internal storage upgrade which is brilliant but expensive. Really cool how it installs and is ready to go. BTW COD Black ops multiplay plays much faster than the Xbox one edition, guess that’s to be expected since this Cold War was made for Series S &X not playing the old systems software. Really happy with it but still would like a series X. Still this does 90% of all we need it to.

Great entry console. Packs a punch graphically into a cost effective package, if you can live without discs. Son loves it, no complaints.

Great console that’s fun to play and cheap to operate. Nice to just buy digital games to reduce additional carbon footprint a bit.

While the Xbox Series X is more appealing to me (better 4k support, disc drive, black colorway), the Series S has a key super power: you can actually buy it. I found that Microsoft has really blurred the lines between Xbox One and Xbox Series, and the Series S performs a lot like a better Xbox One X. Nothing to complain about, but it also doesn't feel like an entirely new product. The styling is a little goofy but serviceable. The size is very compact and portable for a home console. Game Pass may be the best value in gaming, and this box is a great way to tap into that giant ecosystem of old and new games.

Amazing value. I have a PS5 with the disc drive and honestly I will be using this over that now. The controller is so much more comfortable and the Xbox games pass is the best deal in gaming out there.

Amazing console and a great upgrade from my Xbox one first generation. Would recommend buying has better graphics and is much much faster.

This console was bought for my son and he loves it still to this day.

Decided to buy this since I can never find the Series X. This little machine does not disappoint. I even received it early. Had a slight issue with the WiFi disconnecting every 20 minutes, but after I reset the console this hasn’t happened since. The connection is great, apps are fast and games load up in seconds. I am very happy with this purchase. I actually have most games digital so I could care less about not having the disc drive. I love how small this console is and quiet as well. The machine does not even get hot. You could easily take this with you out of town. I ended up buying the SSD expansion drive, which is pretty expensive so it was like buying the Series X, still I am very happy I decided to buy this. I figure they’ll be coming out with the pro version in the next few years, so I’ll probably upgrade then.

Better deal than subbing to XBLU monthly and buying a console. A bit more expensive than buying 8x 3-month cards and a console.

Hard to get my hands on one, but for it's price and the count of power it's capable of, this is a no brained for casual gamers. All digital does limit it, but game pass and streaming services make this console more than enough for me.
