    I was was lucky enough to get this when there were very little available. Its still working great, i use it everyday. The xbox is desinged to be more than just a game console, it works as an all around media device. The menues are very easy to navigate (much more so than the playstation) in terms of use other than gaming.

    Series S is a little beast!! It is compact, silent, incredibly fast, and small. Silent with a consistent and smooth FPS with no stutters, and far better visual clarity, all for $300 bucks! The only drawback to the Series S, is the storage capacity. Microsoft save some money putting 512GB ssd but at the end.... you finished with 350gb** (approximately) to be used. But... you can still using your usb 3.0 or better portable drive to storage your previous (xbox one) games.

    I bought this for my kids and we got Sing 2 with microphones. Kids are adorable but they can’t read fast enough for Karaoke so they just mumble most until the scream the part they know. Super adorable but only like the first two songs. After that the inevitable sets in and I realize my kids will never be pop stars.

    not as good as the ps5. less powerful than the X but worth the price if you really want to start getting into the gaming world. But i would rather save up for the X or the PS5. The ps5 has more exclusives that you cant play anywhere else.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I love this Xbox! I didn't want the series x, only because I wasn't going to game at 4k, but if you are, I would go for that Xbox. If you aren't this Xbox is just as powerful, and it works amazing. It isn't even loud, and I can play all the new games on it. Also, only downside is the storage, I would for sure get an external storage just in case you have a lot of big games.
