    Great for people that play 1 or 2 games not a whole lot of space for the sizes of games that are being made, but nothing a portable hard drive wont fix.

    Haven’t been able to use the 120 FPS feature yet because my tv only pushes 60 but it still runs AMAZING! Can’t wait to hook it up to a monitor that is able to push that many frame rates

    I love the xbox series s, good noiseless and very light and compact. The only thing I wish it could do the use of discs for playing old games in it, other than that good. Thanks BB

    Like the new UI and the quick resume is awesome. My only problem is that the games seem to get larger and larger. I used to be able to fit 4-5 games on my Xbox one s and now on my series s I can have maybe 2-3. Another issue is the expansion cards cost almost as much as the console does. It’s crazy that they cost so much.

    The unit is small and very powerful. Unfortunately I can't play disk games but I guess I can download the equivalent from store. The unit is really quite compared to my old 360. happy with purchase

    For what you pay, this console is an awesome deal. My favorite thing about it has to be its physical specs. So small and incredibly silent & cool. Hooked it up to my 65” Vizio OLED and it’s amazing.

    Love this Digital Edition. This was a gift for my husband and I didn’t know how much he preferred the digital edition. No more discs and scratches. I guess I am a life saver.

    Very tough to get but well worth it! Both the series S and series X are leaps and bounds better than the last generation of consoles. The new graphics and frame rate alone is a huge improvement!

    Most games will play at 60fps and some play at 120fps but overall it is a very capable console as anybody who is doing 1080p gaming, this console is perfect for. It also has GREAT VALUE
