    I own the previous xbox one S and the only difference that i notice was the loading times. Games definitely load faster on this little box. I didn’t notice any graphic performance from the previous generation. I own a 4k tv with the newest generation 2.1 hdmi port and I didn’t see any significant graphics changes.

    Underrated Next Gen Console

    Have no regrets buying the Series S your able too play next gen games like the Series x and ps5 at a lower price. Next gen graphics are amusing on this console as well and loading time is fast on this console also, if you could manage keeping your storage at 364 gbs or lower then this console is perfect for you.

    Great price, Small and lightweight, no problems after a year so far, honestly prefer it better than the Series X, only problem is Storage Capacity but other than that it’s worth it

    Microsoft has hit a homerun. This is a great device for the casual gamer, for the kids, or like me, the person who primarily games on another platform but still wants access to xbox exclusives. I haven’t played any true next gen games on it yet but I’m sure it’ll be fine. Loving the quick resume feature!

    Finally got one for market price, and was not disappointed. Totally different world from my old xbox, and way more compact. Cloud gaming makes this console one of the best value setups available.

    Was hoping for a PlayStation, but was able to grab this instead. Absolutely loved the quality and the ease of use for someone who only casual games. Truth be told I was having so much fun and I just bought a new TV so I upgraded to the series X and sold this one to a friend who’s having just as much fun as I did.

    What an upgrade!! Going from the original Xbox One to the Series S was thee best choice I made. I noticed the graphic and speed difference in game play. I also like how slim this system is compared to what I had before. I am completely satisfied on getting this system.

    Great Entry to Next Gen with Game Pass!

    This is a great entry into next gen, especially if you stream your entertainment. The only draw backs are the lack of a disc drive and low memory. Having no disc drive really isn't a deal breaker, but I would really suggest you invest in the ssd expansion or at least an external drive. Adding extra memory and game pass makes this a great machine. Its also quite small, being a little larger than the Wii U. Unless you want native 4k or a disc drive, this is hard to pass up.

    I have not even had this for a day and I already love this, its fast, sleek, has tons of games, just everything I could ask for, slightly annoying that it is only 512gb's of storage, but the storage expansion slot exists, so that issue is not really a problem, anyway, if you can get this, go for it!

    I couldn’t get the Series X or PS5 so I jumped on this at the first opportunity and it is a major upgrade from my OG Xbox 1. Quick Resume and FPS boost are everything and Im fully digital anyways so I don’t care for a disc drive. If ya still can’t find a X get this!!

    Absolutely love this little beast. Outside of hard drive space; I feel with the upscaling my 4K TV is doing, the Series S is giving up very little to the Series X. What a great value! The build quality is also very good, and it's whisper quiet, even after extended periods of game time

    Had this for about a 2 years and it's still works great, never had any issues with the console OR the controller, and getting 1440p gaming for about $300 in honestly a no brainer.

    It's an Amazing gaming console, originally thought it would not meet expectations, but it surpassed them. We connected it to an Optoma projector at 160in and the details are amazing.

    I wanted the X but you know the struggle of finding one if youre reading this. I had a first generation Xbox one and call of duty was not having it. Let’s put it this way; my friends stopped yelling at me while we game because my console is up to date. No regrets here

    I bought this when everyone was still desperately looking for one. It came fast. Did not have that “repeating power cycle error” that I’ve read about online. I added a two year Geek Squad warranty and I love it. The entire purchase and getting my info went very smoothly.
