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.

    My son loves it. 1440p 60hz in a tiny small system. Even better when monitors start supporting hdmi 2.1

    Don’t buy from Best Buy

    System works great but this review is less about the Xbox and more about Best Buy. After using the Xbox for a couple weeks I decided I’d rather wait for a PlayStation 5. But because Best Buy has possibly the dumbest return policy on earth I’m screwed. 15 days is just nonsense. Most stores offer at least 30 days if not more. If you are an Xbox fan then I’m sure you’ll be happy with the series S. My recommendation is to buy from anywhere else but Best Buy.
