    Xbox Series S delivers so much bang for the buck

    Love this console! It's extremely small, fits wonderfully behind my TV, is quiet, and loads games very very fast. Definitely the best decision if you want next gen abilities for current gen prices.

    Great little console for the price and it's portable. 500 gigs falls short, but can still hold a handful of games.

    Works great! Fast, compact, but if youre trying to play games like Call Of Duty or Halo i recommend buying an external hard drive.

    My next gen replacement.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this console to replace my original Xbox One, The load time is way superior I also bought this console because I do not have the 4K screen that would be viable to have the Xbox series x. I'm still playing on a pioneer kumo plasma from 2009. And it still looks phenomenal to me. I would definitely choose this over the series x If you do not have the screen capabilities to be able to take advantage of the ray tracing and 4k. Overall a great product and I'm glad I purchased it.

    Powerful and affordable next-gen console

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have had this console for almost a couple of years now, and it is a powerful but affordable console. It is not as powerful as the Series X, but it gets the job done, and I have not had any problems with it. The only real issue with the console is the storage, or lack thereof, but it is great for those who do not play many games to begin with, or those who are willing to purchase more storage. Overall, I am very impressed with this console. Even without the price in mind, the console is still powerful, quick, and responsive, but the price makes it an even better deal. I am glad that Microsoft made an affordable next-gen gaming console for those of us who want to play next-gen games without breaking the bank. TL;DR-the Xbox Series S is powerful, affordable, and gets the job done. I love it and would especially recommend it to those who do not play many games, but still want to enjoy the next-gen experience.

    The perfect entry level console

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    As we all know, console shortage is still a thing and due to the Holidays finding a Series X, a PS5 or even a graphics card for your PC build is almost impossible. The solution to the shortage is called Xbox Series S. Yes, it only haves a 512GB SSD and it is not native 4k, but it gets the job done. If you combine this console with the Game Pass, you are set. Plus, you save almost $200 (assuming that finding a Series X or a PS5 at retail price is possible).

    It may not have the graphical power of the series x but does look great considering, if all you care about is frame rate then this is a low budget option that’s great, but i would recommend getting the higher storage option if possible cause it does eat through storage.

    A great second console

    For anyone who has a ps5 as their main console but would like a secondary one to play exclusives or game pass, look no further and dont second guess it. This tiny little machine packa a huge punch. I have a ps5 as my main, and was playing halo infinite on an OG (2013) xbox one model. This has by far been a huge upgrade at a great price. ULTRA small, extremely compact yet extremely powerful and mighty you wont regret your purchase.
