    I love it! I decided to get the S for my other room because I had the old, original console. This has been a huge upgrade and the graphics look real!!

    I hesitated purchasing the Series S because I was waiting for the X ... but once I thought about the pros and cons, I purchased this little speed demon! I had a Xbox One S (that this replaced) in my office ... I still have an Xbox One X in my living room ... the "speed" difference and video quality is night/day. I will eventually get the X when available but for now, ZERO regrets! Loving this system!

    The Mini Tank

    A miniature tank of a console! Great product for those not hindered by discs anymore. Every process feels like an improvement over the One X, with visible differences. And the fact of how compact this thing is for the power you get is insane. When compared to the Series X the Series S obviously lacks in certain categories that highly attuned console players will notice, if they have the other components to bring out the differences between the two.
