Many appreciate the ease of use and fast load times, along with the benefits of Xbox Game Pass. However, some users point out limitations in storage capacity and the lack of a disc drive as significant drawbacks. The console's resolution capabilities also receive mixed feedback.

    Would have given a five star if it weren’t for the controller, nothing you to with Best But but everything to do with Microsoft. If you’ve ever owned an Elite version controller then your going to be really disappointed with the controller. Feels like a fourth market used copy.

    I switched to Xbox from PlayStation because of availability. I’m glad I did because it’s cheaper, same quality and I really like Xbox game pass.

    Fantastic console! Amazing graphics, and curbside pickup was a breeze. I would advise picking up an extra controller and a high end headset to enjoy the robust audio.
