    For 300, this is a perfect console to jump into the next generation. It's amazing what MS did here by putting out a very capable piece of hardware for a price we haven't seen in the past couple generations. I bought this for my kids and a sub to gamepass. So far no complaints and it's only going to get better as MS puts out more games.

    It’s the next generation Xbox; use your galaxy brain to figure out what it does. The practical difference between this (model S) and the model X is 4K resolution. If you 1. don’t have a 4K capable monitor/tv &/or 2. prefer playing games with performance over visuals (ex. competitive titles) then this is fine. Don’t use disks, they’re a dying hardware.

    I bought this as upgrade to the xbox one x, and let me tell you it was not a mistake. i see a lot of people saying to stay with the one x, over this, but the load times and optimization make it wayyyy worth it. my advice is to sell the one x, if you have it, and upgrade to this.

    Excellent little console. While it may not have the power of it's bigger brother or the PS5, this guy punches far above its weight class. Quick loading times and solid picture quality for most games. The small size form factor is also a bonus, if you take business trips, this will fit in your backpack.

    Not much different than our Series One S. Still has the occasional freeze, and Microsoft makes it more difficult than necessary to share games within the family, but the new generation games work with no issues, which is why we had to replace our older version. I added the expansion drive to make sure we didnt run out of space, but I have not had to use it yet.

    Microsoft His Another Home Run

    A fantastic console for those who don't wish to be burdened with keeping track of disks and risking damaging them. With Game Pass Ultimate being the best value around, it's a no brainer. The Series X isn't available anywhere, so if you can find a Series S you HAVE TO buy it. Such a great value. Microsoft hit another home run.

    The item is perfect. Worth the wait and hype. My only complaint is the grip on the controller is like polka dots and feels like sandpaper. I'm looking into alternative grips for it. Other than that this thing and accompanying controller are so much fun and so fast. I def. recommend getting extra storage as I have 4 games and almost filled my space.
