Series S, your only option if you can’t find the X
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you’re like me and can’t find a Series X in stock anywhere and wanted an Xbox to play the new Forza and Halo then the Series S is your only option. It’s a wonderful little system that packs quite a bit of horsepower in its small size. My only issue, and it’s a big one, is the lack of a disc drive for backwards compatible physical games from the 360 and original Xbox generation. Also the controller feels like a Fisher Price toy in comparison to the PS5 Dual Sense and still retains that signature clicky dpad.

Not top bad
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a bad console for being digital. Only real issue was getting hot once, has not done since. Not enough storage would be my only issue.

Posted .Hey there,
We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Series S. If you're running low on storage, you have a couple of options. The best solution is to invest in the Seagate SSD 1TB Expansion Card for Xbox Series X/S, which will add 1TB of SSD storage to your console. For more information, go here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/seagate-storage-expansion-card-for-xbox-series-xs-1tb-solid-state-drive-nvme-expansion-ssd-for-xbox-series-xs/6425015.p?skuId=6425015
Another solution is to add a standard external hard drive, which can be used to store and play Xbox 360 and Xbox One games that have not been enhanced for Xbox Series X/S.
We hope you have a lot of fun with your Xbox.
Happy gaming,
Chuck

Heart it hard!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thiufht the whole "upgrade" thing was fake hut it truly is a step up with the extra hardware. There is so much detail and less of that grainy vision with this. Plus the fast switch is pretty epic as well. Worth the money. Jus make sure u got a 4k TV able to do 120hz to truly enjoy all it has to offer

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great purchase, but it wasn’t the one I wanted. I tried to buy the newer one but it kept getting cancelled after waiting and waiting. But I am satisfied with the one I was able to get. I also got a lot of extra stuff with it.

Series S, the S stands for Stupendous!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was initially concerned that I wouldn’t like this as much as I would have liked a Series X, but I really love this device! It’s perfect as a GamePass machine, and is small and does not take up much space. Seriously, it’s like the size of a Wii. I got the disc enabled PS5, but this is a perfect compliment to that.

The Xbox S
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The main difference I see is the speed compared to the Xbox One and you can pickup where you last left off playing. Is it worth buying if you have the One? No! I only bought it because I can’t buy the Series X! When I get the X I will sell the S! No disk drive isn’t cutting it for Me. I gave it a chance but I need my drive and the HardDrive space is ridiculous. I also have the Elite 2 controller and you have to pair it each time you want to play the One or the S! Microsoft should make the controller pair to,at least, 2 systems at the same time!

Great console
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Huge difference as far as speed compared to the Xbox one x. Controller feels better than the previous models controller but still prefer the elite controller over it. Cheaper version of a PC. When have a chance get one or lucky based off the sales of these consoles and people stop hoarding them. It’s a good console

Great travel/spare room console.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For what it is it's great. I already have a Series X so this is for travel and the other room. Microsoft's cloud saves make this viable. I got a cheap but nice travel case on Amazon to make this a travel Xbox when needed. It's ridiculously small size is perfect for packing.

Miss the discs
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The system works as designed and no complaints there. However, no loving the strictly digital aspect. Games we had can not be played since this does not have a disc slot. Finding a unit that takes discs was impossible so this was what we ended up with. The controller started sticking a few weeks after purchase so we had to get a replacement.

Series S
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was waiting to buy the Series X but its been to long and not available for months, the series S was available so I grab it and after buying the series S I'm not sure i'll get the Series X for a while now, the series S went well beyond my expectations, one word GTA loads instantly no more pain waiting for games to load
