    Fine machine but eventually one day you'll find that you'll never turn it on again

    Great console to have if u lack space in your entertainment center and if your living on a budget. It’s a win also if you don’t care about disk games, but the only bad thing about it, is the memory in it. But you can always upgrade it.

    Great deal for an xbox. I use it as a secondary station, but if you're on a budget this works great as well.

    Best Buy had this in stock before Christmas. I was leaving the store and noticed a few behind the registers. I asked if they were available and was able to buy for my son. The console is not that big and my son loves it using Xbox Game pass.

    Coming from the original xbox one this was the only next gen console I was able to pre order and I'm not disappointed. It looks great loads games very fast and runs very quietly can't even hear it to be honest. Very satisfied with it and don't plan on getting an X for a while if at all.

    I am in love. The size is a lot smaller than you think possible, the faster storage is a real game changer it brings to life older games if nothing else just to see how quickly they boot up. The only drawback is the size of the storage but for the price I have no complaints.

    Really wanted a Series X but had to settle for the S and I am not disappointed. Games load within 8-20 seconds, The frame rate is immaculate. It's so small yet so powerful. Would recommend buying if you can't afford or simply just can't get a Series X.

    If all you're looking for is a gaming machine that comes ready to install hundreds of quality games via gamepass, and aren't overly concerned with 4k resolution the Series S is unbeatable in it's value. My only real criticism is the lack of storage space for an only digital device.

    My favorite form factor so far in a console! Really hope they go this route when they revamp the Series X in a few years. It also runs completely silent, only radiating heat from the back vent. I bought the $219 1TB memory card expansion to go along with it, but it’s also nice to have the option to hook up a normal usb hard drive to store old games as well. In summary, I love the size and performance so far and I hope they make the Series X this small when they revamp it!

    Love my new Apple Watch. Works so much better than my series 2. Selection was great. Ordering through the app was easy and the delivery was sooner than expected. But the fact that it was on sale was the reason I made the purchase.

    I love it, its perfect for my son he still gets all the next gen graphic and you can cross play with ps5 on certain games. The only downfall is the storage but you can install more on it which is clutch because you can download alot of free games from the past with ultimate pass

    In Stock, crazy fast shipping, it is a Christmas present so it has not been opened or used yet so i can only comment on the shopping experience. I had not realized Best Buy was so easy to shop on with fast shipping. I will shop online with them again.

    Why wait for the Xbox Series X when you can find this one! It will play all the same games, it will look the same since you probably need glasses and sit more than 10 feet away from that 4k screen. And guess what some games are still in 4k! Save money, buy this.
