The powerful Xbox Series X delivers true 4K gaming performance. While I personally prefer it over PlayStation 5, especially for physical game compatibility, the digital edition offers budget-conscious gamers a more affordable entry point.

Xbox Series S 512GB - $299 (Price Rising Soon to $379)

Available at: Amazon | GameStop | Target | Walmart

Xbox Series S 1TB - $349 (Increasing Soon to $429)

Available at: Amazon | GameStop | Target | Walmart

Ideal for digital-only gamers, the Series S offers excellent value despite its 1440p resolution limitation. The 1TB model is particularly recommended given today's large game file sizes and expensive Xbox storage expansion options.
