    I’m really impressed with the power and quality of the Series S. I think it’s a great value compared to the PlayStation 5 and Series X. I’ve always owned a PlayStation in the past but this unit and game pass has won me over.

    I couldn’t possibly be happier with this purchase. I was fortunate enough to find one of these before they sold out again but it was worth keeping up with the stocking. Getting my Xbox was quick and smooth. It’s everything you should expect from a great console and more.

    Great deal for an xbox. I use it as a secondary station, but if you're on a budget this works great as well.

    A great next-gen console for anyone who does not care about huge graphical updates like 4K or disc games. It runs perfectly and GamePass is a great deal for its price. Not to mention it is the cheapest next gen console available. Even if it is hard to get.

    I understand that for the true gaming enthusiast, some of the specs have limits that may -in a few years- seem a little underperforming compared to the Xbox x. But for what is optimized forX/S this machine is unbelievable both in price and capability.

    Couple the Series S with Gamepass and you've got the best value in gaming period. I also have the PS5 which beginning to collect dust since I've gotten this system with the endless list of incredible games.

    This is my first Xbox console. I’ve been a loyal PlayStation owner since the PS1. Bought this console mainly to play Halo. Graphics are excellent! Could have bought the X Series, but only bought this to play one game.

    The product is great!! I was just taken by surprise that you wanted to charge me 11 cents for a bag when I spent over $1,000 dollars on my last purchase. Not sure I will ever forget that one.

    Good game system for the average user, but based on Microsoft, kind of sounds like they are going to take your money and throw it away by coming up with a new generation above the series x/s.
