Review: Microsoft's Xbox Series S is an all-digital game console with plenty of power, though it is designed for those with a 1080p TV.

The Xbox Series S is stylish, affordable, easy to set up and taps into the very slick Xbox ecosystem seamlessly. It also works with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate absolutely brilliantly, as well as today's most popular streaming services, acting as a digital-only entertainment box that will no doubt appeal...

The Xbox Series S is a great entry point into new-gen gaming for those who have no qualms about buying games digitally or subscribing to Xbox Game Pass. It's a great option if you want to avoid the sizable financial outlay required to own a full-blown new-gen console, but there are some drawbacks.

A scaled-back version of the Series X, Microsoft's Xbox Series S carries a compelling $299 price, but it makes too many compromises to hit that wallet-friendly number.
