La tengo hace 4 años, tiene algunos problemas a lo largo, ya que, almacena mucha tierra y te puede dar algunos problemas. Lo mejor que tiene son los precios muy baratos y el game pass. Los mandos duran pero van teniendo bastantes problemas duran alrededor de 3 a 4 anos (depende el cuidado). Los juegos andan muy bien y nunca hay bajadas de fps. Es recomendable si se sabe cuidarla.
