Is so overall I would say this is an absolutely fantastic buy however I will go over some of the same pros and cons of this system. Capabilities of this machine is significantly better than a PS4 and my opinion I would say it lays somewhere between PS4 and PS5. One of the amazing things about the system is some of the backwards compatible games from XBox One really really shine here such is the ORIGINAL Assassin's Cree this in my opinion graphically looks as good as most of the top tier series X/S games. Which is quite a feat cause it's having to do mega upscaling to accomplish this! Also the tomb raider reboot (2014) is quite incredible here! It gets a resolution AND frame rate boost . AMAZING! The system does processes VERY quickly due to a newer architecture and higher CPU than a last gen systems. Waiting minutes to delete games is a thing of the past. Which brings me to one of the take aways here. Storage. They really should have given the same terabyte storage that the X has because if you want to try out a lot of X/S optimized gamepass games then your going to be doing a LOT of deleting/moving with this system. It's worth noting that although you can purchase various external hard drives for this system, only the Seagate 1 TB expansion card will allow you to download series x/s optimized games. You can use any external hard drive to download and play Xbox One games but if you want the series X/S versions of the games, which tend to run and look a lot better; you can only do it on the system storage which is pathetic at best or you have to purchase this super expensive proprietary expansion card starting at $149 for 1 TB and $279 for 2 TB. Last but not least most of the games are going to look and run significantly better on the series X. However this is a great go between of the last gen and current gen and it's a steal for 299.

this a great upgrade from the xbox1s, it looks way better and it’s way faster.

Best price for next gen gaming.the only con is the expensive expansion ssd memory stick.

So far so good, a little confusing on what games are free and not on the game pass as this is my first time. But all I have to do is learn to navigate the system, that’s me, not have to do with device. My kids love it and it’s fast

Great system definitely worth the price this xbox is top of the line

Best game load fast easy to play to so I recommend u get it

Love it, it's small aninconvenient and it has good quality. Picture HD looks nice.

Great value for what you get, although not truly next-gen. Biggest limiting factor is the hard drive size. If you already have an external hard drive and don't mind moving games this is mitigated. Perfect little game pass machine.

The next generation of gaming is here, and it's pretty good. For the price. There aren't any "blow your mind" exclusives yet, but a lot of games look and run better on these new consoles. GamePass is an amazing deal, and definitely shows the value of the console. All in all, $300 is a great price on a next gen console, especially considering you'll have it for almost a decade to come.

Great little console (emphasis on little). It's not going to get you 4K/60 FPS in all games but this console is for folks that don't care about that but still want a "next gen" experience. This has the same fast storage as the Series X so load times are super fast on almost everything. Fantastic for Gamepass as there is no disk drive here so digital games is all you get. This is a great secondary console or unit for a secondary location (I have an X in the Den and an S in the downstairs rec room). I do have 2 complaints...one is general to the Series consoles and that is storage expansion cost. Was hoping other vendors would be offering solutions but it's currently only Seagate and the price is high. The other issue is specific to the Series S and that's the fact that it doesn't play the Xbox One X enhanced versions of games due to a lower memory spec than the One X. This means that when playing older backward compatible games that were enhanced for the One X (which released in 2017), you don't get those enhancements and are playing the standard Xbox One version. Not a huge deal as we move forward into the new gen but worth pointing out. TL;DR, Great little console, storage fast and gamepass is great.

Purchased on sale for $250, if youre a first timer for gamepass ultimate youll get a heavy discount on your first month and have access to hundreds of games including but not limited to microsoft first party titles including halo, forza, gears and many others. Really the best value in gaming.

I was looking for a console that would display good quality. Games run smoothly and it doesnt need hardcopys. I am not a heavy gamer so the amount of GB it came with was perfectly fine with me. If you are a heavy gamer and will have alot of games then i would recommend getting the X instead.

Amazing console, really fast, worth it for the price

You get all the new gen experiences with this console and compared to the other oes itspretty cheap the only thing is that storage its not enough especially if you play heavy games like COD or 2K but other than that 10/10

Honestly the only complaint i have is the small storage but i dont mind. Its such an upgrade from old gen. From loading times in games to the 30fps increase, its so worth it for price.

When I first bought this I was super hyped like it was so affordable and as soon as I went home unwrapped hooked it up and just started downloading games to play runs smoothly and graphics look amazing on it I enjoyed it

Great value especially with game pass with a perfect for factor.

I am enjoying my new xbox. I had the regular xbox for years and decided its time for an upgrade since ncaa football has came back out.

I wasnt so sure about this model since i never owned an xbox, but giving this guy a shot at a cheaper price was a great idea, some games and geforce now allowed me to play old school games that aren’t available on the ps5 and I’m having a blast with it

Bought the XBox for 2 of my grandkids for Christmas. They moved in with me 2 states away from their home. They are happy and safe with me now. Most of their things that could be pawned were pawned by their worthless, felon "sperm donor", including their XBox! I bought this for my grandkids for Christmas. It makes them happy and warms my heart to see them happy.
