    Honestly one of the best affordable gaming options if you want to get into next gen. Pick it up with a gamespass or gamespass ultimate subscription. You dont need to buy the $200 expansion card this system is compatible with regular external hard drives, you will have to move the xbox series optimized games back and forth depending the hard drives but its a nice option.

    I purchased this little guy when it's big brother wasn't readily available. I was pleasantly surprised to find the Series S is a very capable console at 1080p. I played through MEDIUM (a native Series X/S title) perfectly fine on this console. The only shortcoming would be if you needed a disc drive for older games you own. But if your going all digital its a great deal.

    My 13-year-old daughter and I decided on this instead of an XBox with the disc tray. It is so easy to browse and access games on the console. The speed and quality I are great! Setup was a breeze for this tech-challenged mama.

    Ever play with someone and are tired of their slow Xbox taking forever to load a game and the whole team has to wait? Yeah we solved that problem and just sent with the weakest link an upgrade so we don’t have to keep waiting for him. Its wonderful. We changed his life.
