Planning on buying an Xbox One.

I would strongly recommend just getting a gaming PC rig/ laptop. I still own a Xbone S, but it was honestly a very disappointing $400 lost. Haven’t even plugged it in since November 2016. I recently got a laptop and I love it. I can play all recent Xbox games in better settings than X, it’s far more convenient to move around, and I get PC’s library as well.

It launched for $399 with a 2TB HDD. At that point the OG X1 was still at retailers and discounted. So its possible he bought the X1S at launch or some special edition.

Either way, I think the X1S is worth having if you see if for $199. It has a notable backlog, especially in some genres compared to competitors.

 You had it right. I bought the 2 TB  model the day the S launched. 

So why did you buy the most expensive model with 2GB? If you were only interested in the exclusives, 500 GB were enough and you had the option to expand the storage with a cheap external drive.

And why didn't you sell it when you unplugged it after just three months?

Its your own fault if you "lost $400" that way, even now you should get a decent price for a rarely used 2GB-XBO.

Which laptop model did you buy that can compete with the Xbox One X and how much did it cost?
