Xbox Series S
CompareIdea verdict
Microsoft - On sale now. The Xbox Series S is the cheapest way into current-generation Xbox gaming: a 512GB SSD, 1440p gaming at up to 120fps, Quick Resume, and the same game library as the Series X. The trade-off is the smaller scope: 512GB of storage fills fast, there is no disc drive, and it tops out at 1440p rather than 4K. At $499.99 at Best Buy, checked 2026-11-05, it suits a buyer who wants a compact, affordable Xbox for a 1080p or 1440p screen and buys games digitally; players who want 4K or discs should step up to the Series X at $799.99.
