Many appreciate the ease of use and fast load times, along with the benefits of Xbox Game Pass.

    Way better than I expected. A major upgrade from the Xbox One S. We could see other players characters way off in the distance in Apex. Made a big difference when playing.

    It's a great purchase, no issues with it. I would suggest getting this with gamepass though, as it's quite the deal now that game pass ultimate can stream games.

    Excellent system, especially for living in small spaces, or travelling/extended stays. No need to haul games around, exactly what was needed. (It was a gift for those reasons)

    A cheap and easily affordable next gen console. If you have any reservations don't... This is worth the money if you are trying to get into the Xbox/Microsoft echo-system.

    This Xbox is amazing! It’s small so it doesn’t take up a lot of space and it’s powerful. Compared to the Xbox one S there’s a big difference and it’s worth the upgrade.

    I wanted the disc version because I purchase a lot of games from GameStop and I have another Xbox that’s limited edition with 1 TB of space so I’m probably going to gift this to the kiddos. I haven’t really played on it as much but I do love how fast the downloads are and the digital quality.
