    Best decision of my life! This is because I'm upgrading from an OG xbox one. There isnt much space, so consider that when buying. No disc drive. If you download many games, or want the best graphics then I suggest the Xbox series x. A external drive can be used to store games, but all X/S games need to be install in the main drive to play. Games: I'm playing on my LG 4K TV, which supports 4k at 60 fps. Elden Ring with this tv graphic setting is great. When playing Apex Legends, I need to adjust TV settings to 1080p 120fps and the game looks great!

    YES! Excellent gaming system! I decided to forego the discs because I have an 11 year old - also it's $200 less! The graphics are gorgeous and I've not had a game glitch out on me yet. Definitely prepare to get Xbox Live at least, so another $10 monthly or $100 a year. I opted for GamePass and LOVE IT! The only real complaint I'd say I have is that its only 512GB out the box - but I have added additional storage via my USB 3.0 external HD. Oh, and remote play is a total game changer! Love sitting outside by the fire playing xbox *additional viewing device needed*,Good vibes, hope you can get your hands on one - took me months of watching alerts for when it'd be in stock but it was worth it!

    I recently purchased this PlayStation but was disappointed. I couldn’t seem to find god of war in the PlayStation store and was very sad. Although I couldn’t play that I still could play my favorite game farming simulator

    Good quality product. Quiet, doesn't run hot. Only digital games, which I like because you don't have to worry about the disc reader having problems. Price was just right when bought on sale.

    I can’t get my hands on a Xbox series X at retail price and I needed to upgrade my old Xbox One. I set my expectations low because I figured for $299 there’s no way this console can be that much better. I could not be more wrong!! The way the graphics look, and how quickly games load and handle are amazing. The gamepass also makes Xbox a great buy!! 10/10 would buy again. I will gladly get the series X at retail when they get the inventory, but this is more than good for me!! Also reccommend getting the seagate expansion card because that’s my only complaint is storage… these games are way too big for the storage the console comes with.

    xBox Series S is an escellent device: compwltely online, with large internal storage, and beautiful design. Because it is disc-free there is less risk if mechanical failure. The box gets warm after about an hour of continuous play, so after each hour have the discipline to let the machine cool down and rest your eyes- one of your greatest assets.
