    This is an excellent little machine especially for the price. Great price point for next gen gaming on a powerful quiet tiny Xbox. Also looks great on my display

    Best system ever. Sometimes I wish I had the Series X but even now more and more games are getting updated to run at 1080p and be optimized for series S. Blazing fast speed, games running at 60fps like Skyrim which Xbox recently Optimized, tiny and sleek and attractive form factor, this device makes me never want to touch my ps5!! Paired with the external SSD, an external hard drive, and the internal 512Gb storage, storage is never an issue for me. I even purchased the ONI Halo sling on bag to travel with this thing as well. Best system ever and extremely well worth the money for next gen gaming!

    A very good video game console for the price. Yes it would be nice if it had a blu ray drive but for the price it's hard to justify it. Yes the trade off is that you need a subscription to play online and buy digital games but on the bright side there is more space on the shelf not cluttered with media. The only other sore spot was the on board memory 365GB , darn Microsoft couldn't you make this at least like the playstation and have 667 GB minimum since some games are huge.

    This console is perfect if you are looking for a cheaper next gen option. My kids have this, a ps5 and series X. The S is honestly just as good, it looks and plays awesome on 4k tv's, i cant tell a difference in which system they are playing. You can barely see a difference in 1440p and 4k. Storage isnt really an issue as most games are playable through the cloud. You can also just add a cheap usb thumb drive to store all the games that arent X/S enhanced. Highly recommend..

    Nice improvement even over the older X series. The price point is much better as well. Storage is the only issue.

    Great purchase! At $300 it can run most games at great graphics. If you're a hardcore gamer go for the Series X, but this will work more than fine for casual players.

    Ive owned every gaming console since the inTelevison. Google it. The series s is a great little console with enough horsepower for most people. Its best selling point is ofcourse the price. The resolution is great on a 4k tv. Most people will not be able to tell its not true 4k. Since I’ve had kids ive downgraded to being a casual gamer and this console has been just fine for me. Xbox game pass is also amazing. Ps5 is struggling with putting out games these days so xbox has the edge here.
