    I'm an Xbox guy since the beginning. This new xbox series s has met all my expectations. The speed which it loads games have significantly improved. I only download my games and stream my movies, so the lack of a dvd/blu-ray drive doesn't bother me. Perfect gaming console for streaming and use with xbox gamepass ultimate. I highly recommend.

    So I have the regular Series X but I travel a lot for work so this has been a godsend since I can just stick it in my suitcase and it doesn't take that much space. This is the perfect system if you have Gamepass.

    Awsome for people who are unsure if tje want to commit a lot of money into next gen gaming. Definitley want to buy segate expansion storge card cus 512 gbs not even after intial set up is enoigh for maybe 4 big games if your lucky def gnna need the xtea gig. Know witb that said youd be better off buying the seris x because of the limited storage problem is u cant get one anywhere so if your eager to see what a dumbed down verision of next gen gaming is like this is hout the only option and its looing like at leat another year before pst and seris x is readily avalable.

    Excellent device for the price. For those competitive gamers out there - it hits the high refresh rate at 1080p. Most modern gaming desktops are gunna be $1100+ for something that the $299 series S can do. Kinda crazy if you ask me.

    Performance is awesome and would make an excellent starter system for a teenager. Sadly, the hard drive is already full. Microsoft needs to figure this problem out ASAP. Paying for 1 TB of additional space runs almost the same as the system. Hopefully they will make larger cheaper compatible storage for the future.

    This is the way to go if you want to have a next gen console and if your games library are all digital. In my case my games were all digital and in some games that I play higher FPS matter and Thai console delivers. Highly recommend. Microsoft has done it all from the controller to the small size a home console should be. Amazing to play games on!

    Normally i play Playstation, but i figured, well this one is the cheapest. They are all very similar, so why not. The graphics are amazing. Only bad thing is the low hard drive. If it is a digital console, then it should have a bigger hard drive than just 500 gig.
