    Xbox almost next-gen

    Great value for what you get, although not truly next-gen. Biggest limiting factor is the hard drive size. If you already have an external hard drive and don't mind moving games this is mitigated. Perfect little game pass machine.

    I was originally looking to buy the Series X,but it was hard to find. I bought the Series S until I can get the Series X. All I can say is that aim very happy with my purchase. It’s a great gaming system. There isn’t much storage space,but there are other storage devices on the market that work well with it.Dint hesitate to buy this. You won’t regret it !!

    Had it for 18 months now, it hasn't let us down. 512GB is just too small of capacity given how big games are now. Although you can expand that with the expensive expansion slot, or get a 1TB HD and plug in USB. Glad to see a 1TB is being released.

    Always with a fan of Xbox now that I got the next gen I am very pleased how well it performs how fast everything is the load time is cut right down I can get right into my games if I pause it go right into another game play that going to the other game it's well worth it downside there's no disc drive but I don't care I get all the games I want online well worth the price

    Games now a days are two big for the 512 to be reasonable, and with external hard drives being soft locked it means it’s either you can only have a few modern games or you have to go spend another few hundred on an external storage drive. But performance and looks are amazing, very quiet too.

    I don’t miss the physical disc slot at all. Perfect with Game Pass and way faster than my current Xbox One (day one). Quick resume is great, plays well with CEC. Wish I had more storage but it’s pretty fast to download games so it’s not that bad to swap them in and out. I have a USB 4TB I think I can use to just move games back and forth and avoid re downloading…

    Little powerhouse

    A fantastic little powerhouse! The difference in FPS from a game like AC Odyssey is very noticeable! Runs incredibly smooth and clear. Storage is a downside of purchasing this console, but if you don’t mind removing and downloading what you’ll play most of the time, then it’s fine to work with. The true storage space is about 356GB out of the advertised 512GB.

    This is the second time I’ve purchased this item. I got one for my son and then my other son liked it so much we got another one. Haven’t had any issues yet. Works great. I do honestly like the PS5 more, but I still think this is a great console and it does the job. Would have rather had a Series X but those are pretty much impossible to find. Still,
