    The Xbox Series S is the perfect Xbox if your only interested in playing via game pass it’s awesome the only downside to the system is the fact that it’s 512 GB but really you get 361 GB if it was like the Series X this would be the best and cheaper option for next gen gaming again if your a all digital kind of person I’m not into all digital but picked it up because I wanted to play game pass games but will pick up a Series X when it’s more available and has plenty of great physical games til then this is perfect!!!!

    Great system, really great graphics but a bit on the small side of storage for games. 5 games and your hard drive is full. Otherwise it’s great!

    Truly a great value for a console. Although you do forego a disc drive, you can store games on an external hard drive.

    I don’t use physical copies of games so the digital version has been perfect. I also usually try to only play 1-2 games at a time so the space on it is not an issue at all, but it’s nice that you can expand storage if necessary, It’s quite small so it fits perfectly where I need it to and it’s super responsive and quick. I haven’t owned a new game system since I was in high school so it’s quickness was a nice surprise. Also picking it up at the store was the easiest thing I’ve ever done(as opposed to finding one to purchase).

    Storage is a bit small for being an all digital console, but if you can look past that this is a very capable gaming machine at the pricepoint, even better so with gamepass.

    The series s is a great console for casual gamers. Pair it with game pass and you get a very affordable way to play next gen games. The biggest con is the storage size, which will fill up quickly with games. If you plan on expanding the storage, I would recommend just going to the series x which starts with double the capacity. The official storage expansion is over $200 for 1tb of data, so you aren't saving much money with the series s of you want more space. If you don't care about 4k and just want to game, the series s is great.
