    We absolutely love playing on the new Series S. With game pass, switching between games is instant. The system is small enough that it can fit anywhere. Highly recommended!

    I have a switch oled and it costs more yet not quite as powerful. And I get that Nintendo markets and appeals differently. But this system performs awesomely!

    Excellent piece of kit for a den, office, study or to travel with. SSD and CPU just as fast as the Series X and the compact size is remarkable. Perfect for game pass, 1080/1440p, for traveling or if value is most important.

      Hey there,

      We couldn't be happier to hear your son is loving his new Xbox Series S Console! 23/7 may be a little too much time in-game, but who are we to judge. We're thrilled he is enjoying hours of exciting gameplay with his new setup! Thank you for sharing your story with the community. We appreciate your feedback, and are glad it was a good investment for you and your family.

      Happy Gaming,

    excellent bang for your bucks but leaves a little to be desired. The 512gb hard drive fills up quick and with the 200$ expansion card price it makes more sense to go with the x for more power and a 1tb hard drive.

    My son recently had his Xbox One lay down on him. The series x impossible to find but just happened to check Best Buy and they had 1 of the series S in stock. He came home and began downloading some games(no disc drive). He loves the series S. The only wish he has is that it was a full 1TB instead of 512 GB. That storage space is precious especially with the expanded drive $200+

    The Series S is a powerful console that is perfect for those who don’t game often or don’t necessarily care about the superfluous features of the Series X.

    My teenage son has loved this since I bought it. I combined it with a good monitor and he's been very happy with the combination. Good upgrade from the Xbox One.
