    I bought this as a placeholder until I was able to get the Xbox Series X. This tiny system is nearly perfect, I was very very surprised at how well it ran games and how quick and smooth everything is. After getting both the Xbox Series X and PS5 recently, I still use this console more often than the others. It's so compact and ideal for portability. You won't regret buying this, add Gamepass Ultimate and you are all set.

    A little underpowered compared to the Series X but a nice small and portable console for lesser displays

    I got this while I'm waiting for GPUs to get to a reasonable price. This is definitely a great deal for $300 and is pretty easy to find if all you want to do is play some games. If this is your main gaming machine i would probably recommend the series x if its available just on the storage and 4k capabilities but, if those aren't real issues to you then this is a great choice.

    I purchased this to replace an older larger xbox. The size of this unit is perfect with no large power brick. The hard drive is small, however, picked up a 4T and have loads of space. I can easily see the visual difference on this model over my older one. The load times are way down now. Great compact unit if your looking for a smaller unit that outperforms the older xbox this is the one.

    These new consoles are still so hard to find from reputable retailers. I just got lucky one late night checking my emails. One from Best Buy, checked for the series S it was available to order didn’t hesitate. Took about ten days to arrive but now that I have it I’m very happy with this little powerhouse. Quick resume, fast loading and smooth frame rates it’s all true, and it is so small you have to see it to believe it.

    I was skeptical about this little system, but it really good. Not having a disc drive is the only downside, but we game pass I only download 1 or 2 games at a time and then delete them after I beat them and download a new one. With the availability issues of both the series X and PS5, along with the price point of $299, this is a solid choice for anyone looking to get a next gen system.
