My mistake, Business Essentials is $5 per user per month, so $60 per year. It is business-oriented, and the controls may be too much for the average individual interested in email on their own domain. I run a small Office 365 set up for a nonprofit and find it works well for multiple users, though at times is too complex for a small office with no IT support. Aliases are easy enough to create, but are designed for receiving email sent to addresses like admin@ or support@, then funneling them to Joe or Sally, who then answer using their own email address. We imported a bunch of G Suite email accounts when we set up our Office 365 account and the process worked fine, though was a bit complicated. Support documents tend to be hard to understand and sometimes incorrect, and online support is hit or miss. If the first person you get isn't helpful, end the call and try again later to get someone else. They do persevere and eventually your ticket gets taken care of. That's one great reason to sign up for business-class email--real support. I believe the detailed support documentation is only available when you sign in with your business account.
Unless you really want that 1TB of storage I think there are better solutions for a single person mainly wanting just domain email. For example, I've read good things on here about Gandi which gives you two email inboxes with each domain registered. Other domain registrars offer similar email solutions, and these are often the easiest to setup. I've used email from Namecheap and Porkbun, and they both worked well. On the privacy end of things there is ProtonMail. I particularly like that they have their own smartphone app that works well. There are many, many options for email.
