    I was hesitant about buying the smaller system but I am overly pleased with this purchase. Game play is great and the console is compact so it doesn’t take up too much space

    Used primarily as a streaming player and occasional game play, works great with aftermarket tv-type remotes. CEC leaves something to be desired, doesn't always turn the tv on (tried with multiple tv's of different brands, same result).

    If you don’t have a need for 4K this is perfect! Just as quick to load games as the Series X we have in the living room and handles everything on a 1080p display with ease.
