    As a digital only console, I have to say this is perfect for anyone looking to take advantage of Xbox game pass ultimate. Great for Xbox exclusives and It’s a perfect companion for anyone who has other consoles like Switch or PS5. The size is incredible for its power.

    Was thinking about getting the X but could never find it in stock. Ended up going with the cheaper option and I am glad that I did.

    Powerful little compact console, perfect for anyone still running a 60hz tv! The white also gives it a very clean look. Definitely recommend for only $299.

    Coming from someone who has the PS5 disc version. The digital Xbox version was worth the tag-team. Gamepass is a major plus for Xbox over PSN.

    I recently purchased this PlayStation but was disappointed. I couldn’t seem to find god of war in the PlayStation store and was very sad. Although I couldn’t play that I still could play my favorite game farming simulator

    I have had one of each of the previous Xbox's. They get better every time. Could use a bit more storage space but that's my only complaint.

    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.
