    Great for PS5 owners

    Let’s make this simple: This system is not the most powerful, and doesn’t have the greatest graphics on the planet but most console users can’t tell between 1440p from 4K. It’s tiny, incredibly quiet, and fast. Pair this with game pass and you have a Netflix for gaming. I wouldn’t recommend this as your only console because of the limitations and lack of a 4K blu ray player, but if you have a PS5 this is a great way to play old school games PlayStation doesn’t support, free games like Fortnite or Warzone, and Xbox exclusives/game pass games at a cheap price. I don’t have any regrets.

    Love it I bought an extra SSD drive so it end up cheaper than buying the x version and unless you have an 8K TV no games play different so save yourself some money

    Coming from someone who has the PS5 disc version. The digital Xbox version was worth the tag-team. Gamepass is a major plus for Xbox over PSN.

    Perfect 1440p 120hz console

    I love this console. I had to return it cause I got an Xbox series X but honestly this is a great deal for someone who doesn’t want to spend a lot of money on a “next-gen machine”. I know you can’t do 4k with this console but you can play at 1440p 120hz with this console and my favorite part is how small it is. Its a very quiet console, and you can play cloud games. Also, it’s usually on sale for 50$ off. Sometimes you could even get it for 200$

    Great system, though less powerful than the Series X which can be a problem in the future. Other downside, no disc drive. As a secondary Xbox to a Series X, it’s great.

    At first i thiught it wasnt going to be enough. But my son loves it and he was very impressed about hiw small this console is. Really fast and doesnt take a lot of room wherever you want to put it. I wasnt a fan of the white color since it usually turns to yellow over time but i also found out that I can buy a wrap for it and change that

    If you could not get your hands on Xbox Series X, this is not too bad of a compromise. It’s almost as good as Series X but without the disk and is cheaper.

    This was within 250 miles of my BestBuy's location so I was able to order one. I paired this with a 1TB external drive to total the storage to 1.3TB or something close, and I also plugged in an external 512GB SSD for older games in the XBOX / XBOX 360 era. The console is paired with an LG nano85 65" 4K 120 hertz TV and this console runs very well. The response time is great and playing on it is a dream come true. I would definitely recommend this console as long as you know what you are getting. The base system only gives you roughly 384GB of storage to use of the 500GB. You have been warned.

    You can't even consider the Series X when the Series S is half the price. This plays amazing. Total steal.
