    I just got the Xbox in the mail today. So far with the few games I installed on it, it runs great. Everything opens really fast. I connected it to my 55 inch 4K TV, which doesn't support the full capabilities this is capable of; the picture quality is great still even though its upscaled to 4K from 1440P. The colors are more intense compared to the Xbox One S that I was upgrading. It does run hot when in 4K mode but it doesn't seem to be an issue. I do wish the internal drive capacity was a lot more though, since newer games take up more space.

    Such a fun little console compared to the Xbox Series X. And also very cheap. The fact that it does 120FPS is crazy for this tiny thing.

    Our boys were super excited to receive this for Christmas! I didn't want to deal with the hassle of discs so we went with the Series S. So far no regrets with that. The console was easy to set up and works like a charm. The graphics on the games are excellent. The only regret is that we didn't buy one for each kid! :)

    A solid new generation console... as long as you don't want to use a disc or game in 4k. The Xbox One X may be a slightly better buy at this price range though.

    Worth it to get if you’re a casual gamer. I got this version for a friend and wish I’d have kept it for myself. Getting the game pass is also recommended.

    Great second Xbox for your desk

    I've been using this as a second xbox that's connected to my monitor of my work desk. I use a Mac for work but when I want to take a break, I switch my display to the xbox and I can game immediately. It's small, unobtrusive and serves as my primary gaming device when I'm playing games solo. I have a separate Xbox Series X in my family room attached to the TV which serves as my primary party/media consumption device. Only thing to note is that you can't be logged into xbox live with the same account on both devices at the same time. It will log you out of the other device.

    So happy for the low price system!! I love games but don’t have time to play often so spending $600 on a system doesn’t make sense. Only downfall is with no disc drive, no chance to trade games in.
