    100% Worth for a Next Gen Console

    Never had much interest in the Series X but I did want the Series S for the sake of upgrading, and to enjoy its new features without breaking the bank. 100% worth the money and especially with features like Quick Resume and the Quality/Performance Mode support for games. Use with a 144Hz Monitor and you’ll never wanna play anything with 30 FPS again. If you’re really looking for something excellent with more storage, go for the Series X, good luck though. However, if you want something just as good for an affordable price, I 100% recommend you get the Series S.

    Cheap for gamers with not much money. Not bad to buy, but the control quality is not that good.

    This is for my son. He loves that he doesn't need disks as he has a disability and it makes it easy for him to use himself. Great purchase.

    At first i thiught it wasnt going to be enough. But my son loves it and he was very impressed about hiw small this console is. Really fast and doesnt take a lot of room wherever you want to put it. I wasnt a fan of the white color since it usually turns to yellow over time but i also found out that I can buy a wrap for it and change that

    Great System, if you don’t feel like going all in for a Series X this will do the trick. Don’t have any issues.

    Best gaming console for low price and best fits for those who don’t play very often and for those who don’t expect super high display resolutions.

    Great system, though less powerful than the Series X which can be a problem in the future. Other downside, no disc drive. As a secondary Xbox to a Series X, it’s great.

    Easy to set up although I did have some glitches to work through. Couldn't sign up for the game pass ultimate so I will need to contact microsoft. Wanted to get the X but none were in stock. Also need to figure out how to make additional avatars. Much easier on the old xbox 360.

    Not sure why MS brought this machine to market. Who is it exactly made for? Resellers, emulation junkies, hardcore gamers or casual gamers? Basically this is old gen with limited storage. The machine is slick and compact though. The controller isn’t bad, although it takes batteries. You can by a rechargeable battery pack, which I will invest in. Some of the old games for this are very expensive. I can buy the disc games cheaper. You can find some great deals though. I picked up Batman AA and Batman AC bundle for under 5 bucks. One game took up about 9% storage. I guess if you’re into older games you might like this. So this won’t be for everyone, and I wouldn’t pay reseller high prices. If you can wait I would pick up the Xbox series X. I can’t see long term value in this machine. Also Best Buy didn’t pack in shipping box. They just wrapped it in plastic. The box arrived in bad shape. Luckily MS designed a great box, the machine was cradled safely. I would pick up in store if you can.

    We wanted to buy the X series we tried so hard and this one was available so we grabbed it. This is powerful looks great and plays amazing, After playing on my Xbox Series S for few month now we can say we are happy with this little beast console. The fast load times are amazing on current Xbox games and the increase frame rates are also very much welcomed. Then comes the downside to the Series S the internal hard drive only 346 GB is just way too small to build a library of games. You will constantly be deleting/reinstalling and good luck with updates. Overall a really good console for the price.

    Pleasantly suprised. Ordered during pre order, eventually scored a ps5 before Christmas. Play this console more than ps5. Only 364 gb usable space, but is fine.

    Perfect 1440p 120hz console

    I love this console. I had to return it cause I got an Xbox series X but honestly this is a great deal for someone who doesn’t want to spend a lot of money on a “next-gen machine”. I know you can’t do 4k with this console but you can play at 1440p 120hz with this console and my favorite part is how small it is. Its a very quiet console, and you can play cloud games. Also, it’s usually on sale for 50$ off. Sometimes you could even get it for 200$

    I did not think about this as an option for traveling, but it worked out very well on a road trip for me. It was very light and connected to the wifi. I was able to play games using my ipad as the screen. Normally, i get concerned about discs getting scratched, lost, or having issues reading the disc while the car is bouncing. This console does not have any of those concerns. It uses low power so it can be plugged into the car with no problems. It is small enough to tuck under a seat and powerful enough to play real next gen games.

    Its good to use because you could watch something such as Netflix and YouTube and you could download a lot of applications and play games. you could also call someone anytime and the controls are easier to use it than PlayStation also it show you the controls of the controller.
