Poll: Are You Interested In Buying The Black Xbox Series S?

I need one for my bedroom, and I didn't particularly want a white one. This is definitely something that I am interested in, particularly so with it having a 1TB hard drive. The current S hard drive is too small, as far as I am concerned. Will undoubtedly be getting one at some point, but I've already spent £250 on the Starfield Collector's Edition today, not sure I should buy anything else right now....

@Fiendish-Beaver My bad on helping with the £250 there... you're welcome! 😅

I think at that cost they would of been better off making a digital series X for £380/£400.

Nah. I have a Series X in my gaming room and a Series S in my living room. Personally, the Series S looks better in white, and just yesterday Bestbuy had yet another sale (24 hour over by now) of the Series S for $250. For $90 I can add a 1 TB storage card and end up with more space than this model. So even if I didn’t have an Xbox I feel going for the cheaper S is a better deal, if one waits for one of the nearly weekly Series S sales.

I don’t see this model going on discount soon, but maybe it will around Black Friday, making it a more interesting option.

Looks nice and extra storage is always good, but I'm happy with my Series S! Still looks great and the storage is enough for me.

If I'm buying a new Xbox I'll upgrade the Series S i already have for an X no chance I'd buy this now but wish I'd had the option to get a black one at launch.

I have both Series X/S and I won another Series S on xbox+Oreo, For the second tv I use the Series s for 1080p gaming is just amazing machine, no need the xtra storage tbo. Definetly it's a good move the xtra storage for the S but not for me, I'll wait for the Series X pro with 2TB ssd to change my Series X.

You'll never be forgiven, @Kezelpaso... 😂

If I didn't already have a Series S, then yes! That extra storage will be useful especially with Starfield around the corner.

I’m good with my Series X.

What would have been cool MS, would be permanently discounting storage cards to make this console not needed in the first place.

Super happy with my Series S. I don't need the extra storage.

Sticking with my vanilla Series S. Maybe on a black Friday sale I'll consider one of the expensive expansion cards.

This is too close in price to the Series X for me. It doesn't make any sense financially for me.

In the long run, not only do you get potentially cheaper games with the physical option but you get all the improvements of the Series X which are not only about resolution over 1080p.

Not even a little

Like most people here I already own an current gen Xbox - For me I have the launch Series S which has served me well with an expansion card but this is the year I will prob upgrade to a Series X. The version seems like a good sell for PS or Switch owners who want a cheaper Xbox with some decent storage.

This is what the Series S should have been to begin with

Nah. My two Series Xs have me set.

What I would buy though, is a general run, special edition, Series X.

It was honestly quite crazy they opted to launch the Series S with half the storage. The lower power was one thing, but keep parity on storage for launch SKUs.

It was like the 360 launch again. Except back then there were games you couldn't play if you got the 360 without the hard drive.

I already have a Series S in my home office and a Series X in my living room. So I won't be purchasing the new Series S 1TB unless my current Series S dies...

I would just like to add, there are now 3 Xbox consoles, and that's just one too many in my view. I feel Microsoft should've just killed the current Series S console with 512 GB and release a replacement for it with 1TB in white as there is already a black Series X.

A 1TB Series S at the same $299 would've been great and a knock on Sony's PS5 825GB. Every 2-3 years cell phones are being upgraded to more storage for the same price, why isn't this happening in game consoles?

I'm keeping my series S just add 1TB seagate expansion card so have 1500gb

If it had a disc drive, I'd buy one as a secondary console. But I'm fine with my Series X. However, I did order the Starfield controller and headset.

Why are they still putting so much care into the S?
All digital crap and the performance slows down game developments.

I guess ms weren’t listening after all

No, the S is a dead weight on this console generation.

@Suda52
PS5 digital can't play Starfield

@Nintendo4Sonic
It being all digital is slowing down nothing, and it's only graphically inferior so developers just have to accommodate for that

Keeping my S as i am very happy with it. I did get an expansion card almost right away as I personally need 82 games to play at the same time… true story and the backlog is real!

Owning both and S and X since launch day I am happy with my set up. X in gaming room and S in living room. I already have expansion cards anyway.
If I didn't already own an S, sure I would snap this one up... I do think it looks better in white though.

If I didn't already have the S then yes.

Can't vote.

I'd buy one if it also came with a disc drive.

As it stands, though, my PC will remain my only current-gen Microsoft platform.

I have a couple of 1080p TVs in a large 20x20 fully roofed gazebo. Might be nice to pickup a couple of Series S' to replace the XBOs I have currently on them!

Already have one with a 1TB expansion (got a good price on it). I’m good unless it dies. I’ve played a lot of games on the S. Perfect complement to my X.

I've been waiting for something like this... but without a disk drive, it's still a pass from me. For now I'll just hang on to my One X
