Very good gaming console and good performance is well

Powerful console for such a small size. The series s is extremely quiet compared to xbox one s. The games loads much faster for optimised games and quick resume feature is amazing, probably the only reason that console gaming is better than PC. With the quick resume I can play 4-5 different games without having to quit at all. No matter even if you unplug your console, when you start the xbox it will resume your gameplay exactly where you left them with no loading time at all! And game pass for me is an absolute deal that let you try out lots of new games that you would never even play before, I’ve found lots of hidden gems and saved me lots of money from popular games that turned out to be bad.

this console is an excellent console! it does everything that you could possibly want it to do plus more. the quality of everything is just so perfect and i love using it. big thanks to JB HI-FI for giving me the experience of a lifetime with this console

The Xbox Series S is an incredible piece of engineering in many ways. Next-gen features such as instant loading in an incredibly compact and affordably priced device certainly help it fill a niche in the market that is not being met by the more expensive PlayStation 5 or the severely underpowered Nintendo Switch. Despite the things I like about the Series S, however, I can’t help but feel like the trade-offs it makes are not worth the $200 savings it provides, especially if you’re moving to it from a midcycle refresh like the Xbox One X or the PlayStation 4 Pro. I got my Series S in the same delivery as the Series X, and I was honestly more impressed by the former than the latter while unboxing the two consoles. It took me back to when I moved to America, and my original PAL PlayStation 2 wouldn’t work here, so I had to get a PlayStation 2 NTSC Slim. I was awestruck by how something so small could play all these incredible games, and while the Series S doesn’t shrink down to nearly the...

Incredibly portable; Good price; Great design;

Not worth the savings; Not enough storage;

The smallest and cheapest entry into next-gen gaming is also the most truncated - in resolution, a few features and, most notable, storage size. However, it is also a great jumping on point for those who aren't as hardcore as others, yet still want a very capable device. The Xbox Series S is fun, friendly and a significant upgrade on the Xbox One - although you might need to put some cash aside for an external hard drive or two.

Neat and small enough to hide away; Adds ray-tracing and faster loading times; Is great value when coupled with Game Pass; Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos for media and gaming; Great potential going forward;

512GB internal SSD storage is measly - allowing for just nine games or so; Native next-gen games list is light at launch;

Stunning, compact design; SSD drive; Fantastic value;

No 4K support; No disc drive; Only 512GB storage;
