Xbox Series S 512GB Console

I had both an Xbox one and a PS4 pro in the last generation. I originally had an Xbox, but switched to PS4 to play some of the exclusives. I have to say a couple of the PS4 exclusives were great, god of war, Spider-Man and the last of us being my favourites of the ones I played. I was therefore really tempted to go for the ps5, when it came to deciding on which new console to buy. The upcoming exclusives on the ps5 do sound good, but once you’ve played god of war and Spider-Man etc I can imagine that the sequels to these games will hold many surprises. The ps5 haptic feedback controller was another factor that interested me in the ps5, although I am aware that a slight downside is people have been experiencing controller drift. Lastly the ps5 console itself in terms of look and size would not fit particularly well into my entertainment set up. So I decided on the Xbox and I have not been disappointed. The console is so so quiet, having played both the Xbox one and PS4 the fans on both were noisy at times. With the series x I can honestly say I’ve yet to hear it make any noise at all. I was also worried about heat, as my previous consoles could almost heat the whole house, when operating. However the series x doesn’t seem to give off nearly as much heat, meaning I’ve felt quite happy with it in my existing tv cabinet rather than having to be on top. The dashboard is what you’ll be used to if you had an Xbox before, it’s easy to use and has everything you would expect, including various tv and movie apps, if you want to use it as your only entertainment station. The controller feels good, it’s really solid and comfortable and the vibration feedback is good (although not haptic like ps5). In terms of playing games, I’ve played quite a few on it and there’s not a lot out there that fully takes advantage of the new hardware. That said everything I’ve played looks great and runs really smoothly. The quick resume feature that lets you jump straight back in where you left off is really convenient and all of the games load up really quickly. A lot quicker than my PS4 pro or Xbox one did. I’ve saved the best for last in this review and that is Game Pass! Game Pass allows you to access a library of over 100 games for a monthly fee, if you’re clever you can use ea play vouchers to buy your subscription and get it for around £5 a month, but even at the actual price of £10.99 a month this is amazing value. It’s allowed me to play a bunch of coop games with my wife for short periods, that I just wouldn’t pay for under normal circumstances. I’ve also tried a lot of indie games that I wouldn’t have bought normally. There are also loads of ea titles on there, so you can play pretty much any sports game you want, including fifa 20 and pes 21. They have also said halo infinite and a lot of first party games will go to game pass on release. When you think that one of these first party games might cost £70 this is amazing value. I’m so glad I chose the Xbox and game pass is the reason!

This thing is a monster and is a joy to use, where as the PS5 is just clunky and unfinished with many missing features. Gamepass is well, a game changer and a fantastic way to get access to the latest games as well as games that you might not have even looked at otherwise. I cant think of a single negative with this product, it's compact, silent, powerful very well built.

Brilliant from when I got it on launch day. No problems, don't believe the hater reviews.

Recently I buy this console I am very happy with this product 2026 still worth to buy this model.. If you don't have so much money for buy ps5.. please gohead this one.. ❤️

Todo correcto y mi hijo feliz

To be clear Xbox Series S is next gen! it can game in 4K & play games at 120 FPS !! For parents to help out if buying for kids Xbox one S is previous gen! Note it says Xbox “one” S. Some previous gen Xbox consoles have “one” in the name. It’s Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, now Xbox Series X/S. The newest generation of Xbox consoles all have “Series” X or S in the name. Series X is the black bigger console Series S is the white smaller console The Xbox Series S…. It’s small, takes up little space and is powerful. The Series S can out preform the Series X in some departments like keeping 60 frames per second during challenging experiences for the console to run. The Series X wins in little things like draw distances and seeing a slightly better resolution, but at times could drop the frame rate. But they are pretty much the same next gen experience just two options for customers. What’s the biggest difference? Microsoft made a way for players not to miss out on next gen experience due to not being able to afford it! If you want next gen and also to save some money the Series S was made for you!! But if you want the full experience the Series X was made for you!! Series X wins for storage but Series S can allow 20 or more decent sized games plus don’t forget you can use cloud gaming for a lot of games you don’t want to download. Game pass cloud feature you can play games within seconds not having to download / install anything. I’ve tested the Series X and Series S and it’s barley a difference. I’m able to pick up and resume my save data from Series X to Series S no problem. Gears of war 5 or WWE 2k22 for example are just about the same on both. Series X - more storage, physical games CAN be played. Slightly better resolution. Loading time differences are to be within seconds nothing wild to report. Series S - Digital only! Meaning no physical games can be played. WiFi is required to set up and download games. Once it’s fully updated and games are downloaded it can be used offline but WiFi is needed to first set up the console and download games!! Series S should not be put down or downplayed, more information should be out there to help customers know this is truly next gen. The Series S is easier to find and it’s nothing wrong with it. Example of storage. Series S. Currently have 6 Xbox series X/S optimized games installed, 9 Xbox one games installed, 3 Xbox 360 games installed 1 Xbox (original console) game installed. Still have 52 GB free !! Downloading my library from Xbox one (previous generation Xbox) to Series S was super easy via the Xbox app. (Available on Google play android and iOS App Store) Much easier than Sony PlayStation has been. Xbox wants you to keep your library and keeps giving added backwards compatibility! I’m so happy with my Series S and don’t even care about the Series X anymore. It’s the same thing to me with little differences that aren’t worth the price difference. And not to every gamer it will be worth the price difference. The loading and quick resume give new life into last gen games that had long loading times ! Something like UFC 4 gets a lovely FPS boost along with Far Cry 5 and many others. Games you’ve already paid for are upgraded and new games will slowly unlock the true power of your purchase. You won’t be needing to trade the Series S in for an upgrade because it will be able to run the new titles and keep up just fine! It’s even small enough for different delivery options ! I got my Xbox delivered to a local stores locker ! It was super light to carry and didn’t come in a box revealing what’s inside thankfully. If you deeply care about 4 to 5 extra bushes and a pinch more draw distance that doesn’t make a difference to the degree that you wouldn’t be able to react. Like a driving game you’ll be able to have the same experience on both consoles same game just the series x might have slightly more available to see in the distance. If storage is that important to y’all or resolution go with the X. But if you want next gen and don’t need the extra storage, don’t care about physical games, and want to save money go with the Series S. Don’t miss out on next gen waiting out for the normal priced Series X if the S is available. This review is to help others understand the difference between the many names of Xbox consoles and see if the Series S is the best option. If not some information about the Xbox Series X is in my review to help to decide. Also to help parents out to make the right purchase for a potential surprise gift! Reviews are always designed to help out others and I hope it has been clear to help out others!!!
