    Not the best performance but it is the cheapest new console. At least you get to play all the latest and newest games.

    The only downside is the storage capacity when switching from a 1tb Xbox one X to 500gb

    Amazing purchase! Only issue is the memory. If you get this you will 100% need to get an external hard drive.

    When Best Buy’s online site viewed “only 1 left!” I drove 2 and a half hours to receive a very fast and friendly in-out experience. Upon receiving this Xbox I literally creamed my pants. I had to to the restroom out of excitement. The Xbox is my dream come true. Thank you, Best Buy

    I only give it 4 stars because I dislike the controller tbh ps5 controllers are way better the Xbox controller is loud/clanky and just tacky overall otherwise it’s good for games and runs perfectly fine.

    I gave this as a Christmas present and my son absolutely loved it! He owned a Xbox One S before this one and he was really happy about the extra storage, the controller ergonomics and faster start up. Definitely recommend if don’t already have one.

    Love this system, especially for this price. Being able to load and boot faster, you can feel the difference. Also, ability to get those higher framerates (as long as your tv supports it) is really great. Combined with Xbox game pass, such a great deal for gamers.

    Totally go a deal on this console. I got it for 229 with a 50 dollar gift card. Easy setup. Loads really.quick and the graphics.look better than the one s. So far no issues with it, my only complaint is that its digital with only 512 gb

    I’m an absolute Xbox fan and I have been for a very, very long time now. With that said I absolutely am in love with Xbox Series S! This is a really decent console, especially if you’re someone who just enjoys playing casually and not a huge gamer! This is the way to go!!!!!
