Many appreciate the ease of use and fast load times, along with the benefits of Xbox Game Pass.

    Affordable and effective. $326 after taxes. Perfect if you’re just trying to play games and have fun. Recommend higher gigs sooner than later 512 is not so much for a system. Great buy tho!

    I was super excited to get this new Xbox and every time I got closer to Best Buy my excitement kept rising. I would definitely recommend this for the price it is. The packaging alone was beautiful along with the Xbox. The Xbox is so small that u can carry it with one hand even if your were a kid. Xbox did and great job creating this!

    This console does everything the series x does just at 1440p, and trust me, you'll be hard-pressed to find the difference from a normal tv viewing distance. Gears 5 at 120fps is incredible and it is amazing even on my LGTV from 4 year's ago. Disc drives don't matter to me when you have game pass. This console is a small form factor beast.

    I wanted the digital version because 90% of all the games I bought for the one were digital. It’s awesome to have all those games back and then some. I upgraded from an S and I have to say the picture quality change and load times are very very noticeable. I kind of wish I dropped more for the Series X but this is a fine machine nonetheless, and very small!

    I came from an Xbox one and wow all I can say this is an affordable and a powerful machine. I love the grips on the controller and how compact the series s is. It supports native 1440p 120hz but it can upscale 1440p to 4k 60hz on my dell monitor. Overall great console.

    Fantastic upgrade from my Xbox one S! Looking forward to using quick resume between any games I’m playing. I wish it had 1 TB memory but I’ll be getting an external SSD. I can finally use 4K settings on here on my new 4K tv I bought this year so looking forward to that! Very happy I was able to get one in stock at my local BB.

    Great price, Small and lightweight, no problems after a year so far, honestly prefer it better than the Series X, only problem is Storage Capacity but other than that it’s worth it

    It's a nice upgrade from the original Xbox One but if you have One X I would wait to get Series X. It's very quiet, compact, and clean look fits well into any decor. Loading time is super fast and definitely very impressed with Microsoft. If you still rock the 1080p TV set then this is not a bad purchase and will tie you up for the next couple of years. My only complaint is for being a digital-only console, the drive is just way too small.
