    Gaming isnt the same like it used to be.. Everything is subscription based and you don't really own the games with the console being digital only.

    I bought it 2 years ago when I got my paycheck from my last job. I literally said I was going straight to best buy and grabbing a new Xbox. The first thing I did was download Arma Reforger. (If you're a PC player chances are you know the series) a game I didn't believe that was on Xbox since it was a exclusive only to PC as far as I know. It's so small and compact I could fit everything I need including a crappy Chromebook and a potato asus laptop as well. And still have room. Now since I've been running what I nicknamed "big Bertha" the base Xbox One surprisingly it was a model that was produced in the first year of production. I got it 50 bucks. The loading times and Framerate was not bad but when compared to the Series S it was night and day. If anyone has played GTAO on 360 or on PS4 or XB1 knows about the horrid load times to get into a session. (Only to get blown up by oppressor). Now some cons; the I don't like the fact that in the 2020s we still have to pay a subscription to play a game we spent our hard earned money on. But I guess that's what happens when you don't spend 1k+ on a PC. Either way it's a good purchase. Consider grabbing one with some kontrolfreeks. Trust. (I play too much destiny) -StrykinStorm

    Super easy to set up and get controller connected. Love that it came with batteries. Only took a few minutes to create an account. Picking it up was a breeze too. Just placed my order online and got to pick it up curbside. Overall super good experience! Definitely recommend.

    Something i liked about it it easy to pack or carry when you are going on a trip and if you turn it off and you turn it back on it save where you were in the game you were playing and it loads fast.
