    Great purchase! At $300 it can run most games at great graphics. If you're a hardcore gamer go for the Series X, but this will work more than fine for casual players.

    Ive owned every gaming console since the inTelevison. Google it. The series s is a great little console with enough horsepower for most people. Its best selling point is ofcourse the price. The resolution is great on a 4k tv. Most people will not be able to tell its not true 4k. Since I’ve had kids ive downgraded to being a casual gamer and this console has been just fine for me. Xbox game pass is also amazing. Ps5 is struggling with putting out games these days so xbox has the edge here.

    I'm not a 'gamer', I've had an xbox360 for many years, played very rarely, and I was happy with that. I got this system because I wanted to play certain new games. I found it very easy to use and set up. I don't know enough about systems to compare graphics, but I can say that if you are hesitant and trying to buy your first game system, this is a great choice!

    Awesome for the price. Great upgrade from a One S. Definitely need an additional Hard drive. Super compact and portable. But if you are willing to buy an additional HD might as well get the X. (If you can find one.) Ended up returning it for the Series X. More power And true 4K.

    Really great system for the price. You might not get that 4k/60fps experience, but for 1080p, it is fantastic. Quick load times and GamePass is a game changer.

    This is a very capable next gen console and for the price you can't really beat that. What's more is that it's small so it fit really good with the setup that I have.
