    Great Game Pass Box, But No Surprises

    Really great console for the price. Can't even buy a GPU that does 60fps 1440p, let alone one that does ray tracing, for $300. The most "next-gen" feeling feature here is the Quick Resume. Everything else sort of feels like my older Xbox One X. I attribute most of that feeling to the lack of a meaningful dashboard/UI upgrade. I have a PS5 as well, and that had a from the ground up brand new UI. Over all, super great Game Pass machine. Haven't tapped into the RetroArch emulation you can do on this thing with a dev account, but I'll definitely give it a shot. Giving it a 4/5 because it's a great price vs. performance value, but doesn't really carry the weight of a "next-gen console."

    [Employee of bestbuy] I wasnt so sure about this model since i never owned an xbox, but giving this guy a shot at a cheaper price was a great idea, some games and geforce now allowed me to play old school games that aren’t available on the ps5 and I’m having a blast with it

    I've had this for almost 2 years now, pretty solid, the only issue I have seen is that it'll exited me from an application for whatever reason. I've experienced that about 3 times or so, but other than that, it's still going strong. I use it for streaming movies, shows and occasionally playing games. My advice: make sure you buy Geek Squad just in case.

    Love this system, love being able to pack up my system and take it anywhere with ease. Discless version was option for me. I’m more of a casual gamer so I just needed the basics.

    I can’t believe I waited a whole year without a next gen system like this the switch lite is cool but this just takes it to another level I have had both Xbox one an ps4 an this Series S is on a different level than both I definitely suggest if your looking for a next gen system this is the way to go if you don’t want to be overpriced by PS5 an Series X Vaulters…

    Love it! Glad I was able to finally get one. Though it’s not the one I would like to have. I am very happy with my purchase! Everything works amazingly well! if you don’t have physical games & you love getting all of them digitally this is the move. Until you’re able to get the series x
