    Great System, if you don’t feel like going all in for a Series X this will do the trick. Don’t have any issues.

    Better than the X as it is more portable and can easily fit in my backpack when I travel.

    HIGHLY recomened this console. I purchaced a PS5 becuase I am a playstation fanboy. I got bored of it a month later. I bought this xbox since its half the price and i wanted to try out Forza 5. I have been glued to Xbox since. Gamepass is a must if you purchace the xbox. There are thousands of actually good games available. I recomend getting some sott of expansion with this since you dont get that much storage.

    I have a PS5 but wanted to get back in the Xbox ecosystem. This is the perfect way to do it at a better price than the Series X. I had the X as well but took it back and decided to keep this console instead. Perfect for the man cave and I the PS5 and a gaming laptop if I need to game at a higher resolution. Also, this is a great console to use with the dev app, boot in to dev mode and have some fun testing or maybe even create apps!

    Performance powerhouse in a small package, relying on digital games, needs additional storage sold separately.

    Great purchase! Basically brand new in the box. Everything came with it except the hdmi chord. However, Best Buy did give me a $25 gift card to replace that mistake. I’ve had this Xbox since October, it is now June and it’s great with no problems. I did have stick drift on the controller that came with it a couple months after receiving. But stick drift is pretty common. Other than that 10/10 would recommend.

    Purchased for my 16 year old. He loves the compact size he can easily pack it for road trips or even use it in the SUV's entertainment package and its not taking up much space in the vehicle! We actuall purched the external hard drive recommended and its very small too! Its a win/win for me. One thing he wishes is that the controller had usb charging capability, right now he is using regular batteries or the lithium rechargeables.

    The Series S is a solid choice, especially if you don't have a lot of space. It's small, has enough internal storage,and even if you run out of that, you can still get expandable memory drives. Game Pass has a cloud gaming feature as well, so a ton of storage space is not a major requirement anyway. Great budget buy. Would totally get another.

    Really enjoy this xbox its nice to not have to hassle with disks for your games and having to worry if the disk has scratches and will play or not. My only con is once you buy a game your stuck with it so trying the games isnt an option persay without the gamepass but its worth the 15ish a month! I will though reccomend if you play alot of games to get a external hard drive space is decently limmited

    I bought this console so i could game fron the comfort of my bed as i only have a gaming pc setup at the moment. I was hesitant at first but boy were those fears alleviated. This console has such fast load times that you dont have time to do anything by the time it loads into a game. Definitely the clear cut choice as most people dont have a high end 4K tv to take advantage of the series X anyways.
