    Get the Xbox Series X over this.

    I know people have different resasons to get the lower end models, but I'd recommend getting the Xbox Series X over this one. In my opinion, 512 gb of memory is not enough. I mean sure you can get more storage, but you might as well spend a little more and get the disc version. This would be a cool gift, but I'd personally get the X over the S any day.

    Solid console at an affordable price. Can't complain too much but I do think the X is a lot better than the S. If you can afford the X, the benefits are worth the upgrade price.

    Had it for over almost 2 years before i decided to sell it. The storage is definitely lackluster but you can buy their ssd for more space if you need it.

    Solid next gen console for a great price! Know what you’re getting before buying. Great as a secondary console or the gamer who’s not ready to totally dive into all that next gen gaming has to offer.

    The Series S is awesome when you have an Xbox Game Pass. I put the Series S in the upstairs TV, while my Series X is on the main TV. The Series S looks nice and is compact.

    Good console to buy, I prefer digital due to you giving more space instead of using your cd's or worrying about them to get scratched up. Also the console is small so a lot more space.

    You can’t beat the XBOX S for value. When paired with the XBOX Game Pass, you’ll have a whole library of games right out of the box.

    Got this for my fiance for Christmas. He absolutely loves it. Plays CoD very well, and you can tell that the hardware has been updated. It's like going from a family sedan to a high power roadster.
