    I have both the Series S and Series X consoles. Both are connected to 4K TVs. Is there any difference visually? No! If there is a difference, it is so slight as to be imperceptible. MS Flight Sim looks the same as do all the Halo games. So far I have yet to see a game where I feel the need to play it on the Series X. I bought the S first then the X. Why? The Blue-Ray disc player. The X is not only a game machine, it’s also my DVD/BD player. The S is digital only. I have literally started a game on the S and then later moved to the X and cannot see any difference in quality worth mentioning. If you’re fine with all digital, want to save some money, the Series S is a great console.

    Im not gonna lie. This was my very first Xbox I have purchased in stores. Been a PlayStation user for years. At first setting up the console it felt very foreign to me but after a while and downloading a couple of games. This console is great!

    We recently bought the Xbox Series S as a second console. Our other is a Series X. We got the S so we could play online co-op games together. We’d been playing games like Halo MCC on the Series X in split screen but wanted to get a second console to be able to branch out and play online co-op together instead of limiting ourselves to just the couch co-op games. I did some online research first for exactly what is needed to do this with only one copy of each game and one Game Pass membership. The setup is very simple and works really well. I decided to go with a Series S since getting my hands on another Series X is still hard to do. We have been very happy with the Series S. We’ve found we really like playing full screen in different rooms with headsets as opposed to split screen together in the living room. We sometimes trade off for who takes which spot but the gaming experience is the same regardless of which console I am playing on. The Series S is small and easy to hide in a wall bracket mounted behind the bedroom TV, so no additional clutter. The storage space on the S is a lot smaller than the X so I just keep 2-3 games at a time on the S and delete the old and download the next new one when needed. However, if you plan ahead, the small amount of internal storage is a non-issue.

    I love my series s... So much so that I got a series x as soon as one was available. This is now my son's Xbox and is a great entry level next gen console.

    Mostly great one caveat with digital games and gam

    This system is perfect for your kids and really runs a lot of games very well. That said, digital games and family sharing is a giant pain to set up and most issues would be avoided with physical games. Problem one, you can’t own two copies of Minecraft and play them simultaneously under one family. But you can play them if the consoles aren’t tied to the family but then you lose the live access that a family can share. If you join family for Gamepass you can’t play the game simultaneously but both consoles have live access. Now I have 2 Xbox’s separated and 2 trials of Gamepass also separated so kids can play Minecraft online. My point is the digital console is great until you get into this nonsense. The controller is insanely clickly

    A bargain, aside from controller issues.

    As you can add storage to the Series S, it can size-wise compete with the X and PS5. Running-wise, it's pretty smooth. There may be a few hiccups here and there on AAA games, but overall? It's a great buy--except that the controllers sometimes get stick drift and/or their trigger springs wear down. But that's a problem with many current-gen controllers, so it doesn't knock down my overall feeling about the console any.

    This is a great little system if you don't need a disk drive. Portable, lower costing and fast.

    Excellent console for the price. Yeah you can’t use discs, but at $299.99 and 120fps at 1440p gaming you can’t ask for anything more. Great buy!

    It’s great and affordable for a next gen entry level console. Game Pass also makes it worth it. If you’re looking for a next gen console and can’t find a Series X or PS5 this is definitely what you should get.

    This xbox was just what I needed after my xbox one. The only thing about it was the storage but it runs just as well as the series c and buying an external hard drive was cheaper
