    Great alternative vs the X console. However the 1080 upscale to 4k it is very basic vs the full 4K resolution on the series x console. It gets very hot so make sure you have it on an open space. I have gotten some freeze here and there when i get to over 3 to 4 hours of playing time.

    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.

    Absolutely in love with this product! I didn’t realize it didn’t have a compartment for discs but honestly it doesn’t even matter because if you get the game pass you’re set for a long while! I got it for my fiancés birthday last year and he fell in love too! And I was hooked the moment Hogwarts came out! Ran beautifully on the console and im tempted to buy another for mommy living room

    Love it! It seems the same to me like the previous Xbox but either way it’s a lot faster for sure. It doesn’t lag. It’s small and easy to put anywhere.

    Mostly great one caveat with digital games and gam

    This system is perfect for your kids and really runs a lot of games very well. That said, digital games and family sharing is a giant pain to set up and most issues would be avoided with physical games. Problem one, you can’t own two copies of Minecraft and play them simultaneously under one family. But you can play them if the consoles aren’t tied to the family but then you lose the live access that a family can share. If you join family for Gamepass you can’t play the game simultaneously but both consoles have live access. Now I have 2 Xbox’s separated and 2 trials of Gamepass also separated so kids can play Minecraft online. My point is the digital console is great until you get into this nonsense. The controller is insanely clickly
