    This is the peak of affordable gaming consoles. Physical copies of games are becoming a thing of the past, and this console takes advantage of that to bring a more affordable and compact gaming experience.

    Just purchased it only for Flight Simulator 2020 download. Fast, plenty of storage, and compact. Seamless purchase and gift delivery to a distant Best Buy and the email receipt credentialed the recipient to pick up the items a Best Buy in their city.

    This has been an awesome purchase. The speed and graphics blow me away. Down side is the hard drive size. I ended up buying the Seagate expansion card. Problem solved Game pass ultimate was a no brainer. Very pleased probably would have bought the series x but it wasn't available. No regrets here. Great purchase

    We love the Xbox series games and the new console is great, just can’t play discs, and we added a seagate hard drive for an extra terrabyte which makes it an awesome console.

    Got this for my son for Christmas great console only thing is it needs to be flat if it’s on its side it will over heat just like the series x can’t stand up but it’s fast snappy and runs games perfectly

    I been on PlayStation for over a decade, got this just for Starfield and am very happy with the performance and the option for additional storage if needed. Look forward to trying other games.

    This unit is impressive. Runs SMOOTH, much improved experience over the pixel pushing one X. I'd much rather run 1080p at 120fps/60fps rock solid than frame dropping like the units about to have a stroke. This Series S performs just as expected and in some aspects in far exceeding expectations!! I LOVE IT!!!

    I find this device very fun and useful! I love not having to use a disk! It saves so much more space! And the console itself is smaller which is great! It helps with keeping less space used!

    Other than the low storage it’s great as a cheaper (and more available) alternative to the series x.

    I purchased this to connect to my monitor in my office and it is the perfect size for that. I have been playing Playstation for years so I didnt have any games so the digital version xbox is great. I would recommend game pass, it is such a good deal. Controller does seem a little cheap though.

    This system was very hard to get and I finally got lucky and was able to put in cart and purchase with an arrival day of Dec 31st and it came Dec 24th. Merry Christmas to my grandson who thought it would come by January 26 for his Birthday. He is happy and so are we. He's such a good kid and that was one of his rewards.

    It is good but missing the disc is more important than I thought it would be, I use game consoles for dvd/blueray more than I realized
