    Have been waiting for one of these for weeks and was excited when I was finally able to get my hands on one. Love it and would recommend to anyone and everyone searching for the cheapest alternative in consoles/gaming at this moment. Great value!

    As a PlayStation fan boy and I don’t own any gaming pc , I think it’s worth it because of the Xbox game pass and other Xbox exclusive games I miss out on over the years. This is the first Xbox I have ever bought and I’m happy with my purchase.

    This gaming console works wonders! I was kind of hesitant to consider buying this one since there is no disk slot, but upon further review, this console works great.

    I haven’t had a Xbox since 360. Since it was difficult to get a PS5, I decided to give Xbox a try. You will not regret it at all. Little system with big power, fast and perfect for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

    I like this console. I already have Xbox 360 and Xbox One. It’s good console. And then, I have Gaming laptop so I can use this Xbox Series S controller with my laptop. Easy to connect and play. Button of controller are very good.

    I got it because I’m always traveling and this console is very small so, I can take it everywhere. I love it! Great for having a good time with family too.

    Great new console. I didn't notice a difference in this console then the series x. I'm just as happy if not happier with this. I don't use disk though. None of the only 360 games even worked with the series x anyways.

    I ordered this awesome gaming console online and one day later, it was shipped to my house. This is the fastest I ever had a product ship to my house. I thank you very much for that. The only gripe I have about this product is the controller coming with AA batteries when they could have just gave us the rechargeable battery with the cord. This is not Best Buy’s fault, but Microsoft. Just another way to get more money out of the consumer’s pockets. They know the AA batteries will run out and can’t get charged which forces us to get more batteries or buy their rechargeable batteries or docking stations. Other than that, I’m having a ball playing Halo and other games on Ultimate game pass.

    I recently purchased an Xbox from Best Buy and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The product arrived in perfect condition, and the entire process was smooth, quick, and hassle-free. The convenience of the purchase made it even better. I highly recommend both the product and Best Buy's exceptional service.
