Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this console because the others were out of stock and have been for quite some time. So glad we went with this because the Xbox game pass has so many options. We love it and highly recommend !

I bought mine used like new and it came liek it was brand new out the box. No problems, works great - definitely reccomend

Very easy to use. Good graphics. I would recommend others looking at this product.

Cant find a cheaper deal on a console so good. If i have to mention a negative it would be that the console does really heat up but apparently its normal so theres that, but with all the good content xbox has its a no brainer

The Xbox Series S is a great value for the money and a worthy upgrade from the old Xbox One. It is small and lightweight and is very quiet. Be advised it does NOT have a disc drive. I thought I would miss having the disc drive but I do not. Everything you need, you can download off the Microsoft store. No discs = no hassles. It obviously is not as powerful as the Series X, but you won’t even be able to tell the difference. The only thing I really don’t like about it is that the system hard drive is a meager 512GB. You can get a 1TB expansion card, but in 2021 they are still very expensive, but they are expected to drop in price down the road a bit. All in all, I would recommend the Series S, especially since at the time of this review, the Series X is still nearly impossible to find.

Great value, especially for someone who is doing light gaming and wants a current gen system.

Very fast you really don't need disc anymore it's better online nowadays game sharing and game pass and xbox still my number 1! Playstation is a close number 2 but thats more for single player games like the last of us...

Great little box doesn’t feel like an upgrade what so ever tho it has very fast load times if you want good graphics this isn’t a good console whatsoever I have never seen the stupid series x in stock ever but this little guy is weak found a ps5 finally you can reallly tell the difference as far as textures go if I could get the x I’d probably give three out of four this definitely isn’t the best new generation we have had games hardly changed think back to ps2 to ps3 Xbox one to 360

It came with everything needed. My daughter loves it. The memory isn’t very much so an external hard drive is definitely needed if you’re planning on playing many different games that require a sizable amount of storage.

Perfect modern console. Quick load times and Game Pass offers extensive selection. Buy the 512 gig memory card and you're set. 1440 native and 4k upscaling work perfectly on my 65 inch Samsung Q60T do don't mind reviews to the contrary.

I got this because the X wasn't available and I wanted a console that could play the new Harry Potter game that's coming out. So far it works great, much more performant than my Xbox One. It plays Cyberpunk much better.

Love this but wish it came with more memory included

Great console to pair with gamepass. The kiddo loves it.

This small console packs a major punch, the quick resume feature makes everything better. If you're looking for a amazing system for a affordable price, the Xbox Series S is a great choice. Your Tv plays major part when it comes to Graphics

I wasn't going to get my youngest son an Xbox because the Series X were all sold out. I also heard some negatives on the Series X with their overheating issues. I decided to go with the Series S after reading nothing but good reviews about it. My son loves it, and it performs phenomenally. I also purchased him a gaming monitor before Christmas for his Xbox One he has. My oldest has the Xbox One S, the digital one with no disc-drive. The Series S is fast, and he has it connected to our modem via an ethernet cable to boost the speed. Even my oldest who was home from school said our internet connection was lightning-fast when hard connected as they were both switching the cable to boost their download speeds. The bottom line is, don't be disappointed if you can't get a Series X. Go with the Series S and get a Seagate 1TB storage card built for the S. You'll be right up there with the X except for supposed higher resolution graphics.

My son loved it, good games and graphics I recommend xbox series s

The Xbox Series S is like the cool, budget-friendly cousin in the Xbox family. It's smaller and way easier on the wallet than the Series X. You won't get the top-notch graphics of the pricier models, but games still look pretty darn good. The all-white design is sleek and doesn't take up much space, which is a win if your TV area is already cluttered. The 512 GB storage fills up faster than you'd think, especially if you download a lot of games. But the fast load times? Totally a game-changer. No disc drive, so you gotta be okay with downloading everything. If you're new to gaming or don't need all the fancy extras, this is a great pick.

Everything was legit as promised! All cords and console, and controller in great working order, and the free 12 month subscription to Game Pass allows you to play hundreds of free games.

I bought the xbox series S because I couldn't find the Series X anywhere, it exceeded my expectations. As someone who does not care much for resolution or graphics comparisons the series S was a great purchase. I thought it would be a lot weaker than the Series S and would eventually force me to upgrade, but it played the same games with no difference in graphics (that I could tell). I eventually upgraded to a Series X and gave the S to my brother and it has kept up with the games that have come out since it released. I was genuinely debating on wether to upgrade to the Series X or buy another Series S for myself.

I was quick enough to purchase one of these cool little consoles in December. I was pleasantly surprised by how compact the console is. I’m gonna hand you all my man card and call it cute. I was excited at the thought of all the possibilities with this machine. It’s small and light enough to throw in a bag and take with you wherever. Gaming on it was great, games load up very quickly. I hooked it up to a 4k TV and the upscaled 4k looks pretty good to my old eyes. When set up with a 120hz monitor , you’ll be able to take advantage of 1080 or 1440p at 120hz monitor. Gaming at those frame rates was pretty cool and visually impressive, especially with racing games. I still feel like this machine should come with at least 1TB of storage because it fills up quickly and buying external storage is expensive. Sadly, I had to return this console today because it started to lag and freeze on me constantly. It did it with just about every fast paced game I played on it. Fortnite, forza 4. After about 5-10 minutes of playing, I noticed it began to lag a little here and there and then video freezes but audio keeps playing. I dunno if it’s a hardware defect or software glitch but I saw on forums that people are shipping them back to Microsoft when this happens. It’s a lovely little machine and I truly enjoyed it while it worked. I would recommend waiting a bit longer til Microsoft figures out what is causing the problem and fixes it. Perhaps they’ll start shipping them later with a 1TB version also. And don’t pay scalpers the excessive amounts they are asking for any of these consoles. Pros : So small! Fast storage, quick load times Nice modern design Cons : Experienced lag and freezes with my unit Only 512gb of storage Would I recommend? Yes, but wait a couple of months until Microsoft sorts out the problems. But keep in mind that this console doesn’t have a disc drive and space is very limited. You’ll fill it up very quickly. You can use an external SSD but games optimized for Series X and S need to be installed on internal drive or Microsoft’s expensive proprietary expansion drives.
