Hey everyone, I have saved some money and I can afford the Xbox series s, do I buy it? Is it worth the money or should I wait some time and save more money

Series S+Gamepass Is the best deal in gaming imo. Might want things like an external hard drive tho

It’s definetly worth it , if you would get series x or ps5 , you will find yourself switching to performance mode in 90% of games anyway

How much does it cost in your country? If you buy one you must buy the xbox game pass with it

In my country (the netherlands) it is 200 dollar and game pass 6 dollar each month. Xsx is 500 dollar in my country and both ps5 are 750 dollar and more.

Buy it but dont forgot you can only play digital games but that problem is solved with game pass

My brothers got a series s and for the games he plays they run great on the series s

the disadvantages of the series s however is the 512gb is not enough and will fill up quickly with the storage expansion card being rather expensive and some games like forza horizon 2 and forza horizon 3 can’t be played on it if you don’t own the digital version of the game and as the games have been delisted from the microsoft store due to licensing issues you can’t buy the digital versions anymore

and the disadvantage of having no disc drive meaning if you have a big collection of backwards compatible games and xbox one games on disc they can’t be played on the series s

Get a steam deck instead. My Xbox series s is just gathering dust since I got mine!

If you can wait then do so until late summer as I suspect the slimline version of the consoles will be announced for a price between the series s and x
