    Underrated console, even though it is limited to 512GB hdd an external works great and highly recommend adding emulation to get your moneys worth!

    Load times are very fast and the promo for game pass is great when purchased. Could not be happier. Console is small but very powerful and quiet

    Bought it for a friend and and it was a substantial upgrade from their base Xbox One. At $300 this is a great value, especially when combined with Game Pass.

    Very good console for casual gamers. It is a great investment if coupled with Xbox ultimate pass with tons of games and you don't worry about changing disks.

    Overall, the console is a great value. Even though I was wanting the Series X, the Series S is more than capable of handling the job.

    It's a pretty good system the only too problems I have with it is you are at the mercy of their online store and #2 Microsoft's DRM is not good But hopefully they fix it So it doesn't impede on people that are getting the games legally.

    Excellent purchase for light gamer. The original Xbox started at $299 forever ago, that just shows the value you get for this next gen hardware.
