Microsoft Xbox Series S Console (Uae Version)

I had a wonderful experience with the product. It is perfect and was well packed. As I ordered from Oman, the handling of the package by Asyad was extremely rough. Amazon needs to take immediate and serious action regarding this matter.

I'm a proud owner of a series X and a series S and this purchase was made for a friend...this console is unbelievable good for the value of money.... unless you're really picky with resolution, I'd doubt that you can tell the difference sometimes... If you check the digital foundry videos when they compare consoles you'll find that it still runs 60fps but at lower resolution most of the time and Xbox have been doing a great job to make sure most of the compatible games drop down resolution at dead spots (far away clouds or environment in the middle of an action packed scenes). I challenge anyone to get a laptop for 1000 AED that would get exactly the same performance.My one and only issue with the Series S is the storage ..500gb (which is less than that) is just not enough if you're gonna download a few hit games...you can get an external HDD but it'll be slow to move games around but still an acceptable solution or you can get a SSD external which will be faster but way more expensive or you can get the Seagate Xbox 1tb expansion card if you're willing to pay the same price of the console for it . There are rumors that other companies will do it too but that's yet to be seen.Overall I've had the Xbox series S and X on their release date and until now it's been getting close to 2 years, still run as smooth as day 1. Literally no draw backs, no fan noise on either console, no crashes. Added with Gamepass membership which is cheaper in UAE than the global price (ultimate is around 10 USD vs 15 everywhere else) what's not to love?

One of the slimmest and prettiest looking console ever created. Controller feels very comfortable and satisfying to hold. Button mashing is fun as always. Superb backward compatibility that dates back to the original xbox. Blazing fast loading times, thanks to the internal ssd. External expansion card is also as fast as the internal ssd. Only bottom line is the low storage space on internal ssd. At least 1TB should have been better. Nevertheless, xbox series s is a must have console which is not very expensive to acquire.

I’ve been a PC / PS gamer my life. This series S Xbox was my entry level to the xbox world. Initially I was looking for something I can use to play few of the xbox gamepass games, however little did I know I will fall in love with it.The xbox controllers are surprisingly comfortable.The series S is a great start for someone like me, the price was great, the performance is outstanding and I am enjoying good quality gaming.Its size makes it ideal to carry around for travel and/or between rooms. Straight forward set-up and actually I am enjoying remote playing from my phone device as well. Good heat management and its size makes it easier to place it in a suitable place for its ventilation.Yet as a fact, my TV is a 2017 4K model, so a series S or X won’t make much of a difference for me at this stage. However if you have a good 4k TV then consider your choices, as quality will be different.The series X is “the beast” for xbox gaming, and for the long run it will be able to support higher quality gaming. Since the series S does not natively operates on 4k (produces the content in 4k resolution), but instead upscales it some gaming companies might struggle to keep supporting the series S with the highest quality connect as per multiple online articles.I really hope Microsoft continue to support the series S, as it will be a shame to start seeing games not adding ray-tracing to the series S games. I bought this device as something secondary to my PC, but now I’m loving it and it is my primary gaming consul. Would love to see it well supported.The cons of series S is the storage. Even though I should be supporting the series S, unfortunately with this issue it is difficult. The series S offers around 360GB of usable storage for games. So a game like Call of Duty Cold War has taken almost all my storage (around 270 GB). Now buying an expandable SSD for xbox (the seagate) is an option buy an expensive one indeed. You would be better of buying the series X (though it as well will only offer around 800GBs) if you want to game multiple new-gen games.I am using an external HDD (4TB Seagate- available on amazon), and it is doing the trick for me. I am mainly gaming with somewhat older games that may run from external storage. Tbh the speed is good enough that I did not notice much change in performance, which I think is a thumbs up for microsoft and xbox.My trick is to move heavy games around to external storage when I will not gaming with them, and move the other series X|S optimized games that I want to game to internal storage. It is a bit of a hassle but luckily the xbox is a beast and the process does not take much time.

in Fortnite, FPS is better, including any input delay, ps5 has better graphics and is better for story games etc, more competitive gameplay xbox series s is better, and it has no delay. Just to let you know, I have a ps5 as well, so i could compare them.

Great pricing and comes with 3 months membership 👍

The bundle has a digital activation for both games, so you won't find a card or an activation code anywhere.It's priced the same as a regular S series, and it includes two games with additional freebies, can't get any better!The console itself is beyond the scope of this short review, as anybody who is remotely into gaming, knows that the S series is the best option available through the whole 2021, early 2022, because of graphic cards shortage.I say if you want a great console without making your finances sweat, the S series + game pass ultimate subscription is a crazy good value.

Get the Series S and GamePass and start enjoying. I did that and couldnt be more happy. For less than a half of the Series X price you get a great console that not only fits anywhere but also delivers when it comes to graphics. Seriously, GamePass is definitely awesome.
