Hi everyone,

I’m turning 13 soon and I’ve been thinking about getting an Xbox One S.

I don’t currently own any console, and my budget is limited, so I can’t afford a gaming PC or a newer Xbox right now. I mainly just want to play games and enjoy Game Pass.

I already tried Xbox cloud gaming once and it actually worked pretty well on my phone, which made me confused about whether I should still buy an Xbox One S or not.

So I wanted honest advice from Xbox users:

- Is Xbox One S still worth it in 2026?

- Is Game Pass good enough on Xbox One S for long-term gaming?

- Do you still enjoy using your Xbox One S?

- Should I buy the console or just stick to cloud gaming for now?

I mostly like games like GTA, Forza, Halo, Far Cry, racing and open-world games.

Would really appreciate honest opinions from people still using Xbox One S.

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to get an Xbox One S soon and I wanted to ask about Xbox Game Pass.

I don’t want a monthly subscription. I’m only interested in either:

- 6 months

or

- 1 year

My budget is around ₹3000 maximum.

I mostly play/open-world and racing games like GTA, Forza, Halo, Far Cry, etc.

So I wanted to ask Xbox users:

- Is Xbox Game Pass still worth it on Xbox One S in 2026?

- Is the game library good enough for long-term gaming?

- Will I get bored quickly or is there enough variety?

- Should I go for 6 months or try saving for 1 year?

Would appreciate honest advice.
