The Xbox Series S is the budget-friendly version of Microsoft’s latest video game consoles, as it eschews the disc drive and goes fully digital. It’s also surprisingly portable, so it’s an excellent choice if you think you’ll be traveling a lot with your gaming console in tow. It’s still capable of playing the best Xbox Series X exclusives and the best Xbox Series X games, so you won’t be missing out on any titles, and if its 512GB SSD is too small for you, you’ll be able to get more space by installing a storage expansion card. It’s highly recommended that you sign up for an Xbox Game Pass subscription though, as not only will you gain access to online multiplayer modes, but you’ll also be able to download and play titles from a massive library as long as your membership remains active.
