NEXT GEN GAMING

I would recommend this to a friend Good upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s an upgrade and all In the system. Good effects
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Xbox console.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic value, especially if you have the extra ssd storage. I’ve owned this and the series X. Extremely happy I have this one now. I have seen no differences yet between this and the X. I don’t want the physical copies of games so going all digital is perfect. Microsoft made a wonderful gaming console. The UI is smooth, and I’ve had zero graphical issues with games.
I would recommend this to a friendXbox, the best box
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me tell ya, I switch from a PS4 to this, ans my world has changed. I have no regrets. Partner this with game pass ultimate to get Xbox gold and a catalogue of games to play. This is for the casual player who doesn’t have a 4k TV, and just wants to play their favorite game with the homies. Money well spent in my opinion.
I would recommend this to a friendSolid choice
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid choice for a secondary console especially when paired with game pass
I would recommend this to a friendGreat for me
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was one of the lucky ones I guess on preorder launch day that was able to wait it out and refresh 100,000 times. I’m loving it so far. Load times and graphics are just obviously better than my Xbox one. Didn’t need a disc drive and I’m not gaming in 4K 120fps so the series s was in my wheelhouse. No regrets and tbh, the thing was a lot smaller than I was expecting. Packaging was great and the new controller feels great.

Love it!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome little console with no load time and amazing graphics. Really impressed especially for the price. There’s very little storage but I knew that already and got tired of waiting for the X to be available. Could always add storage or upgrade to the X later. I recommend purchasing a chargeable battery for the controller as the AAs don’t last too long and you’ll spend more money changing them out

Love it!

I would recommend this to a friend XBox
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a gift for our son and he is very happy with it.
I would recommend this to a friendPlays as expected.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works exactly as expected to lol. I have a rtx 3090 and bought this solely to play nba, madden, fifa, etc next gen. For some reason these companies don't want to make next gen sports games for pc's that can easily play it. Probably because they want to make next gen console owners feel a little special or they're too cheap. Either way, it works perfectly for what i bought it for.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat console for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great console especially when paired with gamepass ultimate and an external hard drive.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat, cheap option for Game Pass users!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't expect much with this console, but it really sold me on Xbox for next gen. For a $300 machine that can run ANY game in Game Pass, it's hard not to like this thing. It's also a good-looking console. I look at it every time I enter the room. It's small, efficient, and stylish. It convinced me to purchase a Series X and have this as my guest console. Try it out if you're on the fence!

Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love buying my children’s gaming consoles from Best Buy because it’s always easy and convenient online and pickup is on time. I haven’t had any fussy complaints from the kiddos about their gaming systems so if they’re good I’m great!!!!
