    Didnt want to wait for a series x. Bought this for a discounted price & couldn't be happier. This plus gamepass is a gaming machine & runs smooth, quiet, and lets us play for hours on end!

    The size is amazing for me while in college. It is really powerful and my best advice would be to buy an external hard drive to store all the other games. Overall worth it for the $300 and was way easier to buy than the Series X at the moment.

    Used to own a PS4, but had to make the switch to XBox after not being able to purchase a PS5. The XBox is far superior and much easier to use and interact with.

    Great system for those of you who do not care about 4k or have a 4k display. Bought this for my kids who game on a 1080p tv and its amazing for that purpose.

    It's an XBox..what more needs to be said. It's quiet, sleek, and plays games. Of course, there's no disc drive, so all the games are digital.

    Had this for almost a year now and I love it. I originally bought it just because i couldn't find a series x but i dont really feel the need to upgrade to the x because this is doing the job.

    At the heart of Series X is the Xbox Velocity Architecture, which pairs a custom SSD with integrated software for faster, streamlined gameplay with significantly reduced load times. Seamlessly move between multiple games in a flash with Quick Resume.

    Love it. Provides great performance and even supports old games as well. Playing Fallout New Vegas on it and the differences are phenomenal. Also cheaper and more available than the PS5.

    The better option of the two versions of the new Xbox. Not to big that you need to rearrange your furniture or buy new furniture to accommodate it. Save yourself the added cost and pick up the small one and get an ssd to our with it for the cost of the series x

    Console is absolutely wonderful. Runs at crazy speeds and is worth the $300. Gamers who do not have a 4k screen should invest in this console. Sometimes console doesn’t load up games, but I believe the problem is with Microsoft’s connection and not the console.

    Great deal for an xbox. I use it as a secondary station, but if you're on a budget this works great as well.
