Solid Plan B
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect console for someone who doesn’t play that often or is addicted to one or two games. Got as a gift for my GF who plays Assassins Creed, she was playing on the older Xbox X and loved the improved graphics on this console.
I would recommend this to a friend2nd best Xbox ever.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted my grandson to get the series X but I could only find one of those. So this is what o got him and he loves it. It’s really fun playing online and being able to just play and not have load times or freezing frames.
I would recommend this to a friendPerfect
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Xbox is perfect for me. I play pretty much the same games. NBA 2k, madden, any GTA that comes out, and occasionally I’ll purchase a COD game. Works great for me. All my movies are digital anyways. It’s time to cut the cord anyways. Love it.
I would recommend this to a friendWould buy again

I would recommend this to a friendLove this thing.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When paired with an external drive, this thing is a beast. I've been using it nonstop since I got it and I cannot suggest it enough. No issues at all. If you might play on a few different monitors/TVs, it's perfect because it's nice and portable.
I would recommend this to a friendLove it :)
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had no issues and it runs the way it should. Would recommend an external drive for serious gamers. I only keep 2 or 3 installed at one time.
I would recommend this to a friendWorth the upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hesitant on getting this console since I had the Xbox One S and it was working just fine. I'm beyond glad I did, the difference in performance is massively noticeable. I don't purchase discs so this is perfect for me and what I use it for.

Works great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replacement for our old one. I was worried since there is no slot for games, but this is better plus no clutter from game cases.

I would recommend this to a friendGotta be upgraded

I would recommend this to a friendCriminally underrated!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Underrated, unless you have a 4K tv, this is the Xbox to get. The graphical improvement of the series x is only worth it if you have a high end 4K tv like an oled. If not, grab this and enjoy! You won’t be missing out on anything!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat deal for a great system
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was skeptical about making the jump to get an Xbox. But I’m glad that I did, wish I’ve bought one sooner. Runs so smooth, thought it was an exaggeration on fast it loads. I love it
I would recommend this to a friendThe available gaming machine
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.1080p beast? Check. 1440p beast? Check. 4k beast? It’s manageable on the right display. So check. Available? You’re absolutely right. Unlike the PS5 and Series X, this is available.

Needs a bigger SSD or better external options
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the size of this console and how fast everything loads. If not for the SSD that is WAY too small and the inability to use true 4k @ 120hz I would give it 5 stars. Since you cannot (currently) use an external SSD that isn't the $220 proprietary accessory Microsoft has to install new games on, the 512 SSD is extremely limiting. I was able to install 4 AAA games and had 3% left in space. In the short time I've had the console, its already become a problem for me. I recommend the series x for the extra space, but even 1TB seems too small for the amount of games that are 100gb or more.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from MicrosoftOutreachTeam
Posted .Hi there,
We're sorry that Xbox Series S hasn't met expectations. Another alternative for adding more storage is to get a standard external hard drive. While games optimized for Xbox Series X/S may not be played from an external hard drive, older games that are not enhanced can be. For more information on which games are optimized for Xbox Series X/S, please go here: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/optimized
Hope that helps,

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son says he like the game. I did curbside pick for this product. I did not have to wait long for my item to be brought to me. There was a delay however on when to item was ready for pick I had to wait a few extra days, but that was understandable.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Budget Next Gen Console
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great low cost next gen console. If you are playing from a 1080p TV this is the unit for you. Games still look great and half the price of a PS5 or Xbox One and much more availability. Also great to use for emulators and older games.
I would recommend this to a friendBest value console on the Market!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best Value on the market for a console. Most of the power for a fraction of the cost.
