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.

    The price for a next generation console is amazing. I wanted an Xbox but did not really want to pay another 500 dollars for a system it is great overall.

    I already have a Series X and PS5 but grabbed up this one for upstairs to replace my Xbox One X i had in my room. Do far it’s really good. The graphics seem just as good as the Series X for the most part. I did come across a game that stuttered pretty bad on it but I think it’s really good.

    The easiest next generation console, this console does some games at 2K (1440p) with up to 120 frames per second. It looks amazing on a 1440p monitor with VSynk.

    Works well. A bit better than the Xbox one S. There is real value in the Game Pass from MS with the new console as the upgraded game versions are already available.

    Definitely a step up from the previous gen, and does everything I want it to, but I will probably upgrade to the X in the future. Not a lot of onboard storage, but can use an external for legacy games. I'm happy with my choice at the moment though. It's a good entry into the current gen consoles.

    I wish it was the xbox series X. This will do for now until we can buy one. It’s a great little powerful machine. We have it hooked up to our 82 inch LG ThinQ 4k HDR. It makes a lot of the games so pretty. The load screens are fast and make it loading into a game quick.

    Great console! Uses a lot of data from your ISP, so if you do not have unlimited data you will have to keep an eye on your usage.
