    I adore my Xbox and couldn’t imagine not having this fun system in our home! The ease of not having to wait on a disc copy to come in is marvelous!

    Bought this to replace the Xbox 360. Design is sleek and is great for a casual gamer. Recommend for kids to replace all the different gadgets they have in their rooms (thanks boxes, etc)

    This system is amazing. Easy set up and operation for children and adults. Recommend chargeable batteries as regular batteries do not last long in the controller.

    Great for traveling, amazing at 1440 or 1080. I got this for when I travel its smaller and lighter than my gaming Razer 15. I does great when I'm at the hotel and they only have 1080p TV. its small and light and you only need to bring the power cable, hdmi and a controller and your set. seems like my gaming computer is on par on graphics as well. If yo want a compact gaming console to travel with you for yourself or your kids this is the one to get and at the same time if you dont want to game and just watch streaming services this works to. I think the price is a bit high at 300 but at 250 which I feel it will be next year around the holidays it will come down in price.

    I been a playstation fan since PS1 but this machine is pretty sweet and with Game Pass is even better. When there nothing to play on my PS5 i jump to XBOX and vice-versa.

    So far no issues. I like the convenience of not having to worry about game boxes laying around and disks getting broken. The picture quality and graphics are pretty good. My son loves it!

    What can I say, next gen consoles are where it’s at. I don’t own a 4K tv or monitor yet so I’m literally losing out on nothing with series s over the x except some storage space. Which would be my only complaint about this system, the hard drive is a bit small, and games like COD and Destiny 2 eat it up real quick. Still get the blazing fast load times and 60 FPS that series x offers though, which is really what I want. Love the Xbox ecosystem and operating system vs their rivals. Xbox game pass is a game changer, it’s a tad pricey for the service, but worth every penny will not go back to a console without it.

    Great Console and Value

    This is a great gaming console. I like it better than the playstation. Xbox game pass subscription makes a great addition. Plenty of great games for everyone out there. Backward compatibility is the best. The only gripe is not enough onboard storage. In addition an option for physical game disks would be nice. However you can use external storage for older generation games, such as an external hard-drive. However Microsoft's proprietary expansion card is required for next generation games. Overall great value.

    If you’re unsure what to get for next gen consoles this is an amazing option. The price tag alone is convincing enough to buy the series S but the power in this little guy is incredible.
