    Not want it was cracked up to be. Price is great. But wait for the S/X will be worth the extra money. I play Destiny and Borderlands both games have problems with jerky play and skips. Hopefully cloud gaming will come to this console. My be the fix it needs.

    I am coming from the Xbox one s. I have a ps4 pro, and a switch as well. The graphics aren’t enough of an upgrade at this price point, and coming from a previous gen console with 1 tb of storage that comes with the console, the amount of storage for this device is outrageous. Next gen? Ya, right. When most game are close to 100gb or more to download, you can only fit about 3 games on it. Not worth it. They want you to buy an additional storage card, which will add another $200 to the price tag, which is $499. Unacceptable. I will be returning this immediately. Staying with last gen until they figure out their mistakes and shortcomings. Also, the grip texture on the controller feels terrible, and it feels insanely cheap.

    Man, not sure how to put this but I am a little disappointed with my purchase. I just dont think the Series S is future proof. It makes me wonder if I should have waited for the Series X or PS5. I wont point the good because I feel there are already so many great reviews which I agree with, BUT, I must let you know what I have encountered. First, I download FIFA 22 and it looked horrible while playing matches. At times it looked like 480p. Seems like it was a problem solely with Series S. Could this be the beginning of a trend? Second, there is a problem with the Y button that I have read upon and unfortunately I encountered. It must be pressed down and does not work well if pressed at an angle. Which means unrecognized presses on competitive games. I like the console but does leaving me doubting if I should have waited. Good Luck!

    This machine is amazing! This is basically an Xbox one X with an SSD. If you are planning on playing a lot of indie games or less intensive games, then this is all you need.

    My son is enjoying the new Xbox. As the one that pays the bills, I’m disappointed that there is a fee to play with others. I’m not a gamer myself, so I don’t claim to understand everything that goes into creating games. Getting a console that then requires a monthly fee to do things he could do on his iPad for free is disappointing.

    Good system, runs smoothly. I am just not seeing what is making everyone crazy. If I could do it again I would just wait it out until the price drops, there are more games, and you can actually get one. Seems like a money grab and nothing more
