Thread Details
I need help , I am newbie to games. Trying to avoid crazy price for XBOX , my 10 year kid want to buy xbox but i am thinking to buy say android box and play xbox pass on that . How I can do it ? and which device/android box will be good.
My son is also not very deep in gaming / doesnt care much about graphics for now so looking for something basic not extra ordinary. Any help is appreciated.

Just like the other person commented. Get a series S. It was made for xbox game pass. This Android game thing sounds like you can only play the Xbox games that are compatible with your phone. Series S is ready to go right away. No tweaking settings or wondering if it's going to work with certain games. Just need to download your games. As long as you have good internet the games download pretty quickly on the solid state drive.
Sure, will think on that

Yes, there are Android boxes that can technically hook up to Game Pass but it's not a great solution and won't work as well. Any 3rd party console is going to have lower quality hardware and slower processors so you're going to end up with framerate issues, possible freezing, bad draw-in distances, and just a worse experience overall.
I'd highly suggest just setting up a SlickDeals deal alert for "Xbox Series S" and then buying one when it's on sale.
