    It's a great console. I had an older Xbox One and wanted to upgrade for quicker loading times. This console certainly doesn't disappoint. Also, the graphics are great.

    Recently got the Xbox series S and I highly recommend it to someone who has a tight budget on their hands. It is quite easy to obtain now due to more restocks and it’s worth the price.

    Great budget version for next gen gaming. If you are a hardcore gamer, this isnt for you, but as a supplement to a PC or PS5, this is a great way to get xbox exclusives and GamePass.

    Glad I could get one for retail price finally, and that Best Buy was actually able to hold it for me so that I could pick it up. The console is everything I wanted.

    I love it. Sucks you can only download like maybe 3 games and your memory is gone and then you have to buy a 100 dollar memory card

    First of all this thing is a beast. I love having it and game pass takes it to a whole other level. I like how small it is because I travel a lot so it goes with me. This is a must buy.

    Excellent product and excellent service from Best Buy. The only thing missing is a disk drive so I can use my collection of compatible games on disk. Very happy with my purchase.
