    Compact, easy to use, affordable gaming console. No disc means no playing older games. Can have difficulty playing newer titles compared to Xbox series x

    If you have extra money, get the series X. This little box looks great in the living room and can handle next gen games flawlessly. For the price, it’s a winner. Again, I would get the series X over this if they are in stock.

    Nice, but I'd probably wait for the X if you can.

    Decent, but I would recommend the X if you can get your hands on it. Better specs all around on the X, and can do everything this one can do. But this was the only option at the time, and I wanted to finish my YouTube comparison on the new age systems.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
