    Amazing purchase! Only issue is the memory. If you get this you will 100% need to get an external hard drive.

    Runs fast, is quiet, is a definite improvement from our Xbox One. Have had some issues with downloading games though.

    Love this system, especially for this price. Being able to load and boot faster, you can feel the difference. Also, ability to get those higher framerates (as long as your tv supports it) is really great. Combined with Xbox game pass, such a great deal for gamers.

    I gave this as a Christmas present and my son absolutely loved it! He owned a Xbox One S before this one and he was really happy about the extra storage, the controller ergonomics and faster start up. Definitely recommend if don’t already have one.

    The only downside is the storage capacity when switching from a 1tb Xbox one X to 500gb

    I’m an absolute Xbox fan and I have been for a very, very long time now. With that said I absolutely am in love with Xbox Series S! This is a really decent console, especially if you’re someone who just enjoys playing casually and not a huge gamer! This is the way to go!!!!!
