    My son loves the graphics provided by the X Series S. He enjoys the time allotted to play games with his friends as well. The set up was easy for me.

    Great system! Not as good of graphics as my series x, but it is still an upgrade from the Xbox One X both in speed and features.

    Stepson loves it. My only issue is the controller isn’t rechargeable without an accessory. Come on Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo do this already.

    Really good buy if you can find these in store. It just needs a larger harddrive since you have to download everything.

    I would definitely say if it is an option hold out for the Series X/PS5. This system in all reality for me is a slightly upgraded version of the Xbox One X. Offers some of the new but does not take you to that next level that you would expect from a newer console.
