    Overall, I’ve enjoyed the console. It’s worked way better than I thought and it has allowed me to play games at close to next gen speed at such a low entry price!

    Very happy with the S, not playing 4k so don't need the big brother. Unit is surprisingly small, which is great - I was able to mount it on the back of the TV so it's completely out of site (custom mounting that I improvised myself) and being disc-free positioning is not a relevant.

    My husband absolutely loves. It is perfect for his needs. The only thing I miss is being able to put a physical cd in, however, I did buy it this way hahaha

    I have both Series X and A. SERIES x is definitely more powerful but I love how compact this Series S model is. If graphics isn't really important to you or maybe you have a 1080ptv and no4, I would really recommend this model over series x. Game pass is highly recommend too

    We purchased this console as a Christmas gift, so the young man who will receive it has yet to test it out. However, he has played with it at friends' homes and he love it. So, I am confident that he will enjoy various games with this Xbox for a long time.

    I was on the Sony playform with the PS3 ans PS4. I couldn’t find a PS5 for the last couple years then opted to get this system and couldn’t be happier. It does everything the PlayStation does. Im glad i have it.

    While the Series X is gold standard, the S provides excellent value. With GamePass (with cloud play!) remote play and excellent back catalog, this provides great gaming. Storage isnt great, but can be expanded.

    If you don’t want to spend the extra money for the x this works just as good besides may need to invest in extra storage

    Love this little Xbox. I’m a PS5 player first and foremost, so I knew the Xbox would take a back seat, but excellent for what I use it for. Lack of disk drive can be frustrating, but super fast and great if you use it for things like Netflix and all in addition to games.

    I've had both the Series S and the Series X and it's hard to see the difference really. For the price, this seems to be the winner. Only downside is the smaller harddrive. Otherwise, great gaming system.

    This is very small and it weighs around 5 pounds and its very quiet and downloading games on the internal storage is very fast. This is recommended for those who have game passes and wants to play it there besides PC cause Outriders is coming to game pass day one for consoles only.

    First X-Box I ever owned, and I’m pleased. I also have a PS5 but each console has its advantages. Game Pass is totally worth it, and Dev Mode is a MUST if you love emulation.
