    Grabbed this for the spare bedroom since we already have the Series X. Honestly not much difference, half the price, and we download fames anyway. The holiday prices this year were TOO GOO, to pass up!

    No disc drive, but no big deal with so much available to just digitally download. Gaming is always better with a SSD. And it takes up less space with it's smaller size.

    Item was a Christmas dream for an amazing young man. No complaints regarding performance, controller, or storage. It was absolutely perfect.

    Totally go a deal on this console. I got it for 229 with a 50 dollar gift card. Easy setup. Loads really.quick and the graphics.look better than the one s. So far no issues with it, my only complaint is that its digital with only 512 gb

    Best console you can get at this pricepoint. Considering the value and how much more pleasing it is aesthetically (compared to series x) I think its a perfect companion to ps5.

    I don't see the need to get to upgrade to the series X if you get this product with a external hard drive, more cost effective and you will have the same gaming experience.

    Next gen gaming at a fraction of the cost. Ive loved xbox since the 360 era ans while the One dropped the ball a bit with navigation and software; the S/X is the better consoles of the era. Recommend

    Not as cheap as it looks

    This item is indeed an Xbox Series S. Its a good value if do not play very many games at once (3-5 titles). If you want to take advantage of the GamePass subscription to the FULLEST extent, you may want to go ahead and get the Series X instead because it has more available storage out of the box. Either way, you’ll definitely need to purchase the additional storage or an external drive. Total cost of this console really ends up being 500 dollars if you want to play more than a few next gen games at once. Call of Duty, Fortnite, Destiny 2, Apex Legends, and Mass Effect have entirely eaten my internal storage. HOWEVER If you enjoy playing older games (pre 2018), indie games, you’re okay. Have at it. 10/10

    Very happy with my new system, I was going to wait for the X model but my older system stop working, so I have to go with the S, but very happy I have a external memory from my previous console and all my games were there already, so was a plug and play, and I save some money

    Purchased this after failing to find the X. Currently own the PS5 as well. Hooked it up to the same TV as the PS5 and was pleasantly surprised by the series S. Dirt 4 is the only game I currently own in digital format but it ran so much better than the One S. Pros: Fast load times. Next gen capability. $300 for a gaming console that rivals gaming PCs costing much more. Small size makes it easy to tote around. Quiet. Cons: Small storage for an all digital unit. With no disc drive you can’t play any of your physical collection. There is some debate on the longevity of its current hardware configuration. Very happy so far with this purchase and would buy it again. If you really want a disc drive to be able to play your physical collection and can swing the extra $200 get the X, if you can find one. I just use my old One s to play all my physical copies.

    I have both xbox series x and xbox series s. They are both extremely quiet. I had a PS5 that I sold and was much noisier than these two consoles from Microsoft. With my 4K Sony OLED, Madden 21 plays in 4K with HDR on both series x and series s. In my opinion, this series s version at $299 is a great buy. If you don't need the extra storage and/or a disc drive, this is a fantastic bargain. I love it and the series x as well. Microsoft is now my console of choice. The controller is same on both series x and series s. The only difference is color. I might give PS controller the edge, if you're into sound coming from controller, but when it comes to consoles. there is no comparison--Microsoft is to me the clear winner. One other thing to note, when pairing controller on xbox, you don't have to connect any cables--thank goodness! And when updating controller, no need to connect cables--thank goodness!

    It’s just what you need if you’re a casual gamer like myself. With the size of games today a little storage management is required, but not a deal breaker.

    Perfect console

    This right here is a perfect console for someone not chasing latest and greatest graphics. I could buy 2 of these for the price of my PC's GPU, and that's not even talking about other components. My eyes aren't all that great, but I still like the way games look on my 55 inch 4K panel - not quite like my PS5 (favorite console this gen), but that thing's $200 more and barely in stock, unlike this. If you don't care about not being able to buy cheap disk games from previous gen, just go for it. MS store sales are pretty good, game pass is a great deal too, I never run out of stuff to play. My only complaint is the controller (I prefer DualSense for the button feel + you need rechargeable batteries for this one), but they improved the d-pad over Xbox One's pad anyway. Just go get it if it's in stock.

    Excellent system. Works swift and as advertised. High speeds, both for downloading and for playing. I do wish it was easier to enter information in either via voice or keyboard input from phone app. Outside of those small considerations. Excellent product.
