Console
Xbox Series S at GamingKit: £685.01
GamingKit lists one console: the Xbox Series S 512GB in white at £685.01. That price sits well above the console's normal UK retail price, so this is a listing to watch rather than a deal to take. The console itself is the right buy for a 1080p or 1440p setup.
The console
The Series S is the all-digital Xbox. It targets 1440p, has no disc drive, and ships with 512GB of storage. It plays the same library as the Series X and it is the cheaper way into current-generation games.
The price
GamingKit's listed price on 22 October 2026 was £685.01. That is not a deal. The same console sells for far less from mainstream UK retailers, so check the live page and compare before you order. We list it because it is the only console in the catalogue, not because we recommend it at this price.

What to pair it with
The Series S outputs at 1440p, so a 4K screen gives you a clean upscale rather than native detail. The ViewSonic 32-inch 4K at £253.81 from the same retailer is a sensible match, and it costs less than a gaming-branded 1440p panel.
Verdict
Buy it if: the live price drops near the normal UK retail figure and you want a digital-only console for a 1080p or 1440p screen.
Skip it if: the price stays where we measured it. You can buy the same console for less elsewhere, and a disc-drive Series X is a better long-term buy for a 4K television.

Should I buy a console from a catalogue retailer?
Only when the price is right and the returns terms are clear. Consoles are commodity items; the seller matters less than the price, the warranty route and the delivery promise.
