    The little console that could

    This console may not be the most powerful, have the biggest storage, or run everything at 4k 120fps. What this console is, a surprisingly powerful entry level next generation console. I bought this to hold me over until I could find a series x, but what happened is I enjoyed it so much that while I still will get a series x I'm not in a hurry anymore. The series s is exactly what you think it is. The smaller weaker little brother to the series x. What you don't expect is a console that performs at this level, this smooth, and a few minutes in you forget it is a series s. I spent a few hours last night playing gears 5 at 120fps on series s. Some games if you choose visual mode even run at 4k. Pleasantly surprised and have no regrets.

    Originally i had a playstation 4 pro, and when it kicked the bucket i decided to switch to xbox. I wanted the series x however it was sold out and found this. Overall im super impressed with it. The design, the way it runs. The storage space isn't a issue giving certain games arent big downloads. You can always purchase extra storage if needed. You also cant beat the price for a next gen console. Overall there is no difference between the x and series s. I did alot of reaearch talked to a few friends and there is only a few differences not really a game changer. Im impressed how far xbox/microsoft came. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a next gen console.

    Nice xbox but if you play a lot of games and need memory you might buy the bigger memory xbox.

    I got it to play sports games and it plays them well. My only regret is that I’ve been too busy to get a lot of mileage out of the system since buying it.

    I'm not a Microsoft fan AT ALL.. My 360 was so unreliable had to send it in for repairs 8 times. So was very reluctant, but this has been a good experience, even with the tiny HD it's got more than enough room for a wealth of games. OS isn't as nice as a PS5 but it's doable, controllers suck because of needing batteries, but are comfortable. I feel like the visuals on the playstation are brighter more defned, xbox seems darker and bluish regardless of the TV settings -- not entirely sure. Perfect game system for a tween/teen and not a $500 investment. A good buy, reliability wise we shall see.

    I bought two of these for Christmas presents. One for a 15 year old and one for a 7 year old. Both of them love it and the set up was super easy.

    This was difficult to get but Best Buy added the email verification which eliminated the bots! Well done and a great system! Got the no disc version for my two sons with the game pass, more than enough games for them.

    Great Little Box

    Got this as a secondary console to my Series X so that I could play my games and stream my movies on another tv in the house. I did not expect to love this system so much. It is very small and sleek so it fits well in any entertainment system. Also Xbox’s instant cloud saves makes going back in forth between systems. Also performance wise it is very sleek and fast. And while Series X is a higher powered unit this definitely holds its own. The biggest drawback is the internal storage, but that is something you can upgrade when you’re ready.

    The Microsoft Xbox Series S is a fantastic gaming system upgrade that continues the legacy of excellence established more than two decades ago with the first Xbox. The console is sized and shaped to fit unobtrusively within an average user's entertainment ecosystem, and the controllers are ergonomic and easy to use.
