    The entry level next gen console is a dream machine. Pair with this game pass and it’s potential is unlocked. Be mindful of the internal storage however as it only comes with 384 GB of immediate use

    So happy with this console. I would recommend to a friend. If you turn on notifications for the Best Buy app, you can get notified when they restock quicker. I would say this is a perfect office console.

    I bought this for the Microsoft Flight Simulator Game. I like that it comes in an all-white scheme that matches the Sony PS5. it runs a little HOT when playing. So make sure it has plenty of ventilation.

    I really wanted to be able to play some of the Gamepass games that I wasn't able to on my PC. This more than adequately does the trick. I know it's not 4K, but it looks great on my 1440P monitors. Very happy.

    It’s worth the money for all the entertainment it provides. Both boys fight over who gets to play first. My boys love the game pass you can purchase to have access to over 100 games.

    Console works great, Citizens One problems.

    Console is good and I have not had any problems with it, DO NO DO USE THE CITIZEN'S ONE FINANCING OPTION. As far as I can tell so far it is just a run around making you call in each month to get a new code for Xbox Game Pass. You are better off to either buy the console by itself. Or just keep calling to get codes everyday until you have a years worth of codes.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Son enjoys this Xbox. Works great, only drawback is this version does not have ability to play disc games so no ability to buy any preowned games to play on it.

    I’m not a hardcore gamer. Really fast. Plays war zone and the racing games really well. What was a big deal for me was WiFi speeds and this far surpasses my last gen console (which I bought at release).

    At the price point this is a great console. What you need to know is this. Yes this is a 1440p console. However, if you do not have a 4K capable display, you can not output in HDR. This is such a huge oversight. This product is sold as a 1440p console, yet, you cannot enable HDR unless you can output 4k on your display. I docked one star for this very reason.

      Hey there,

      We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Series S for the most part. To use your Xbox console in HDR mode, you also need to make sure that your TV has HDR enabled in its settings. For assistance, we recommend reaching out to Xbox Support for assistance here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/display-sound/hdr-tv-settings

      Hope that helps,

    The kids love the new xbox. The graphics are amazing...especially since this was an upgrade for us from a 360. I like the ability to try different games through game pass as well. I did waffle a little between getting the s or the x as we have a lot of games that we won’t be able to use now but for the price we decided this was a better fit for our family. Overall, the kids love it!
