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.

    Gift for Son

    The system was purchased as a gift for my son. Overall exactly what you would expect from an Xbox with the one issue being the buttons on the controller "sticking" (which seems to be a thing with Xbox). My son loves it and that is all I was hoping for!

    This is not a review related to best just the system. One to many times to count while playing the game my controller may disconnect from the system and will not reconnect unless I unplug my system for example today I was play a game and mid game my controller disconnects from the system really ruining the experience and just kills the whole vibe only theses things are only happening on new gen to when I try to join my friends game it will take me to a game they are not even playing and is also annoying, the system boots up pretty good tho after you have to unplug just to connect a controller for some reason even if you have a usb C cable to connect the controller it still won't connect.
