    Awesome console if you don't mind going all digital. Everything looks amazing on the screen and with the game pass I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything this generation.

    I would only recommend this Xbox only if you down own a Xbox One X. The Xbox One X is slightly better. I got lucky one day at Best Buy and they had the Xbox Series X in stock. So I returned my Xbox Series S for Xbox Series X.

    Bought this just because they were in stock. As far as graphics, it's not a noticeable difference from the one x on my my 4k TV. I'm sure you could tell a big difference on a monitor with higher framerate. The most noticeable difference is the load times for games and things just seem "more responsive". It's a good price to add to another room as I just added it to my living room and will wait to get the series x for my game room.

    Bought two of these for our grandsons.They are very happy with them. We are still looking for an Xbox Series X for our oldest grandson. The pickups for the two Series S at the Best Buy stores were very well organized; excellent customer service. Thank You.

    Underrated console. It's not the best, but it's very useful and affordable. Excellent machine for Gamepass and streaming. It's a basic setup that doesn't make you feel left in the dust.

    My son seems to like his new Xbox. But I hate it has half the storage of the x series. It uses way to much data deleting and reinstalling games. What I think really sucks is that the total storage is half a terabyte, so you don’t even have the ability to use all the space for games or streaming apps, bcuz the stuff that comes on the system takes up space.

    This was a gift to my nephews. I got myself the Series X. As a gift for those kids I guess its ok. They still rather shoot nerf guns and play basketball on their little goal. Still, its a nice buy for the price. If you aren't a hardcore gamer, but just want something to play every now and then, get a switch... or this.

    Been waiting for this to be available finally we have one. We supposed to buy the series x but due these scaplers people like us don't got the chance to own one. DON'T SUPPORT SCAPLERS SELLING NEXT GEN CONSOLES ONLINE TWICE THE PRICE.

    Purchased this a gift. Receiver says this system is amazing. Loves the size and the digital platform. I received the system a day earlier than I was supposed to, which was greatly appreciated by the receiver. Shipping was faster than other retailers.
