    I couldn’t possibly be happier with this purchase. I was fortunate enough to find one of these before they sold out again but it was worth keeping up with the stocking. Getting my Xbox was quick and smooth. It’s everything you should expect from a great console and more.

    The Xbox Series S is unfortunately a bit underwhelming and often times a bit frustrating. The networking gear on it is not vamped up or powerful in any way which really sucks because its a download only console (like why). Besides that point it also tends to close applications occasionally. Lastly the NEXT GEN game catalogue has just been really underwhelming this console generation. It runs really well as a media hub for your home theatre (ie, runs your apps and shows well)] Controllers have stick drift often and storage you can download a half a game and a backstreet boys CD and hit max capacity.

    Impressive console, really compact and good looking, super fast and great grafics , I give it 3 stars because the storage of 512 gb it is a really inconvenience… they saved money on the disc drive why kill this console with a small hd… everything will be digital, with this storage you can only have one game install… that makes everything else pointless …

    Incredible loading times and entry level storage capacity, the controller feels good, ad both are very portable and easy to store as the power cable doesn't have the large adapter as older gen consoles.

    Couple the Series S with Gamepass and you've got the best value in gaming period. I also have the PS5 which beginning to collect dust since I've gotten this system with the endless list of incredible games.

    A great next-gen console for anyone who does not care about huge graphical updates like 4K or disc games. It runs perfectly and GamePass is a great deal for its price. Not to mention it is the cheapest next gen console available. Even if it is hard to get.

    Best console you can get at this pricepoint. Considering the value and how much more pleasing it is aesthetically (compared to series x) I think its a perfect companion to ps5.

    I understand that for the true gaming enthusiast, some of the specs have limits that may -in a few years- seem a little underperforming compared to the Xbox x. But for what is optimized forX/S this machine is unbelievable both in price and capability.

    I don't see the need to get to upgrade to the series X if you get this product with a external hard drive, more cost effective and you will have the same gaming experience.
