    I love this Xbox it’s digital so all I have to download the games and play don’t need to go to Best Buy or GameStop to buy games but the only downside to it is the limited amount of space but hard dives are cheap but still a great Xbox for it price

    Excellent product. Really fast compared to XboxOne. However, they should give option for additional memory card as opposed to buying it separately at almost the same cost as the Xbox?

    I was originally looking to buy the Series X,but it was hard to find. I bought the Series S until I can get the Series X. All I can say is that aim very happy with my purchase. It’s a great gaming system. There isn’t much storage space,but there are other storage devices on the market that work well with it.Dint hesitate to buy this. You won’t regret it !!

    It's Xbox same as the old Xbox. But plays Next Gen games and load times are faster, much faster. Great, especially if you got a 4K TV.

    Not much different than our Series One S. Still has the occasional freeze, and Microsoft makes it more difficult than necessary to share games within the family, but the new generation games work with no issues, which is why we had to replace our older version. I added the expansion drive to make sure we didnt run out of space, but I have not had to use it yet.

    This is the second time I’ve purchased this item. I got one for my son and then my other son liked it so much we got another one. Haven’t had any issues yet. Works great. I do honestly like the PS5 more, but I still think this is a great console and it does the job. Would have rather had a Series X but those are pretty much impossible to find. Still,

    Little powerhouse

    A fantastic little powerhouse! The difference in FPS from a game like AC Odyssey is very noticeable! Runs incredibly smooth and clear. Storage is a downside of purchasing this console, but if you don’t mind removing and downloading what you’ll play most of the time, then it’s fine to work with. The true storage space is about 356GB out of the advertised 512GB.

    I don’t miss the physical disc slot at all. Perfect with Game Pass and way faster than my current Xbox One (day one). Quick resume is great, plays well with CEC. Wish I had more storage but it’s pretty fast to download games so it’s not that bad to swap them in and out. I have a USB 4TB I think I can use to just move games back and forth and avoid re downloading…

    Always with a fan of Xbox now that I got the next gen I am very pleased how well it performs how fast everything is the load time is cut right down I can get right into my games if I pause it go right into another game play that going to the other game it's well worth it downside there's no disc drive but I don't care I get all the games I want online well worth the price
