    Great console for the price - only thing I could harp on is the storage, just isn't enough for a digital only console! Would for sure recommend a external hard drive. Other than not having 4k gaming, the 4k video makes up for it. Glad I was able to get the last one in stock at my location.

    Love it! Great quality. I wanted the Xbox X but you don’t really need it. This one does the job! It’s super fast and the small design is so much better. You should get it!

    This is by far the best option to have if you cannot find an Xbox series X or PS5. I am having a blast downloading games on Xbox game pass.

    This is a very capable next gen console and for the price you can't really beat that. What's more is that it's small so it fit really good with the setup that I have.

    Been enjoying this for almost a month now and I am pleased. Super fast. Only thing you could knock it for is the storage space but it's not deal breaking.
