 - Improved error message in :func:`to_datetime` for non-ISO8601 formats, informing users about the position of the first error (:issue:`50361`)
 - Improved error message when trying to align :class:`DataFrame` objects (for example, in :func:`DataFrame.compare`) to clarify that "identically labelled" refers to both index and columns (:issue:`50083`)
 - Added :meth:`DatetimeIndex.as_unit` and :meth:`TimedeltaIndex.as_unit` to convert to different resolutions; supported resolutions are "s", "ms", "us", and "ns" (:issue:`50616`)
+- Added :meth:`Series.dt.unit` and :meth:`Series.dt.as_unit` to convert to different resolutions; supported resolutions are "s", "ms", "us", and "ns" (:issue:`51223`)
