Many appreciate the ease of use and fast load times, along with the benefits of Xbox Game Pass. However, some users point out limitations in storage capacity and the lack of a disc drive as significant drawbacks. The console's resolution capabilities also receive mixed feedback.

    Held out for a Series X for a year or so, finally bought this since it was actually in stock. As a console it's fine, but the lack of a disk drive is annoying because I'll either have to re purchase backwards compatible games I already own or else just not play them until I find a Series X.

    Beat system I have had so far. Video quality is unmatched. Hopefully I can land the X soon but I’m truly satisfied with this system and amazed at how small it is!

    Amazing value for what you get, especially if you subscribe to gamepass. For now, seems to run most new games pretty well, but it might be lagging behind in future releases as games get more intensive.

    This new Xbox is great and is quick with the professing. The only downside is the lack of storage and being forced to use to digital games only. Also, the only way you can get external shortage is by paying for the expensive 1 TB storage from Xbox, otherwise it’ll crash the other hard drives.

    Great visuals, even if it doesn't quite do 4k gaming (it's 2k). Nevertheless, for the price and availability, it's a great deal for most younger gamers (for an 11 year old).
