    Great System, if you don’t feel like going all in for a Series X this will do the trick. Don’t have any issues.

    Snagged this day one as I was not able to get a xbox series x and was still gaming on my 1440p monitor with my pc. I wanted an xbox to play things that I couldn't on pc and games that I prefer to play on console. The packaging was really nice and the console is very small, doesn't take up alot of desk space which was great. I was really impressed with the load times for this console and was able to get 120hz at 1440p with a few games. I ended up getting a 4k tv with hdmi 2.1 and an xbox x so returned this. I would highly recommend this console for this gaming on a 1080p or 1440p screen!

    Love this little console. Bought it to tide me over until I could land a Series X. Been using it to play gamepass games since there’s no disc drive. Plays most games at 1080p 60 FPS. Not as good as a PC or the series X but it’s good enough. The 512 GB SSD is a weakness for the console. After the operating system for the Xbox is accounted for, you get like 350ish GB leftover. An external HDD or one of those SSD expansion cards are definitely recommended in an era where games are routinely 100GB or larger.

    Our boys were super excited to receive this for Christmas! I didn't want to deal with the hassle of discs so we went with the Series S. So far no regrets with that. The console was easy to set up and works like a charm. The graphics on the games are excellent. The only regret is that we didn't buy one for each kid! :)
