    Best purchase I have ever made with Best Buy. It was the best deal and my kid loves playing with the Xbox. I got it for him Christmas and he was very happy and was excited to get one. Overall the product came in and was not damaged nor was it ever late and is the best thing I have bought, I highly recommend buying it as it is an amazing product

    Let’s make this simple: This system is not the most powerful, and doesn’t have the greatest graphics on the planet but most console users can’t tell between 1440p from 4K. It’s tiny, incredibly quiet, and fast. Pair this with game pass and you have a Netflix for gaming. I wouldn’t recommend this as your only console because of the limitations and lack of a 4K blu ray player, but if you have a PS5 this is a great way to play old school games PlayStation doesn’t support, free games like Fortnite or Warzone, and Xbox exclusives/game pass games at a cheap price. I don’t have any regrets.

    Love it I bought an extra SSD drive so it end up cheaper than buying the x version and unless you have an 8K TV no games play different so save yourself some money

    A next generation console for just 300$ is astonishing, especially taking into account the performance and improved graphics. I was able to fit about 15 games about it. I'm fine with the small storage space, as I usually just play a set of specific games, though I downloaded some more so I could try them out and see how they look on the Series S. I can't wait to see how Overwatch 2 looks on this. The design is sleek and it's incredibly compact, taking up almost no space.

    If you could not get your hands on Xbox Series X, this is not too bad of a compromise. It’s almost as good as Series X but without the disk and is cheaper.
