    The only thing holding this console back is its weak performance and lack of a disk drive. But if its on sale, like around 200 dollars or maybe even less then its amazing.

    Xbox Series S Review

    For $299, this console is definitely incredible, the only issue with it, is it’s lack of storage, it comes with roughly 376gb of game storage after the initial setup, so after about 4 bug games you’d be out of space. If your an extreme gamer, and know your going to play a huge variety of different games, Get the Series X, but if you only got this just for the fact of having an Xbox next gen console for exclusives, this is fine.

    It’s a bit smaller than the Xbox 1 but it’s very sleek looking. This is the best purchase I made from Best Buy! Even though both the new Xbox’s are hard to find but when you find one get it, you won’t be disappointed, just a fair warning it’s a discless Xbox so any Xbox games that you own you can’t use but you are able to download them from your Xbox one to the Xbox series S using the Xbox app

    Small but Mighty

    You really cant beat the bang for the buck. The only real issue would be the hard drive space. My daughters really only play a couple games at a time so it's perfect for them. I own 2 already it is small, but mighty. You can put about 3 to 6 games on the ssd depending on the size. I just picked up two external hhd for older games, but som S/X games will still run off of it.

    Can’t go wrong with any XBox!! Love that it’s portable if you wanna take it with you when you travel-for smaller kids it could help keep them busy during downtime!

    Best system to get into next gen gaming aside from being digital only and held back on graphics.

    I bought this because I was former Flight Simulator fan for the PC. As far as consoles, I've been a loyal Playstation since the beginning ...until now. I was afraid a console version of Flight Simulator wouldn't meet my bar but, oh it does. The xbox runs it better than my hyped out PC used to. Very happy with my xbox(S) ..I will need an expansion card sometime!

    Xbox series s is small and sleek this is the size consoles should be, the ps5 is huge compared to this, the series s performes quite well and 8s super fast, storage is lacking at only 512 gb, the price of extra 1 gb storage is almost as much as the console itself but if u can find it at a lower price its soo worth it for this tiny little beast
