    Great console just as good as the bigger X so long as you don’t mind not having a disc drive. Only gripe is internal storage, you can plug in any third party hard drive and use it for storage though newer games will have to be transferred onto the local storage of the console before playing.

    What a great little box. I thought I would be bummed about the lack of disc drive but with GamePass it's not really necessary.

    Best console ever

    This is truly an amazing console. I was originally going to buy the Xbox series x, but due to the current pandemic, I went with the cheaper option. I am so glad I did. The Xbox series s is so much better then people make it out to be. Really the only downsides to this console is the storage and the disc drive, but even then you can just buy and external hard drive with 2tb of storage. This console is complete and udder overkill for loading games such as gta v. It’s like only 5 seconds and the. You in.
