    Stop waiting for the Series X. Just get the Series S and Game pass and take your gaming to the next level.

    if your on a budget and owned the xbox one or xbox one s and don't mind not having a disc drive then this is the perfect console for you very cable console does the job it was intended to do very well.A good entry point for next gen gaming the storage is a little underwhelming but you can use an external hard drive or the very expensive ssd expansion storage to increase game save space i definitely recommend this console it's great for the price and the size is so small doesn't take up much space at all

    Love the xbox it works great and easy to use the only thing I can give less than 5 stars is the storage. There is not much on it and if you're into the newest games you'll definitely need to get the expansion card. I didn't know this at first and bought a separate HDD which works but you constantly have to switch your games between on board memory and the HDD as the new games can't run on the HDD is not fast enough.

    The process of buying the Xbox was super smooth and very fast. The Xbox itself works great, I really needed an upgrade and Best Buy gave that to me!

    I was blown away by how amazing this thing is. I wanted to get the series X but can never find it in stock. So I got the series S to hold me over then I will be moving it to my bedroom. The system is so small. I was shocked it how tiny it is. Games look great on it, I have it hooked up to a 55” 4K tv. The only drawback is the no disc drive but I can live with that. Game pass is a must with this system. Don’t sleep on the series S. Next gen games at an affordable price.
