Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Xbox One S 500GB console's 4K capabilities, graphics, and ease of use. Many appreciate its slim size and the inclusion of an extra controller, along with the picture quality and overall performance. However, some users express concerns regarding the limited storage space and the battery life of the controllers. The relatively small hard drive capacity is a recurring negative comment.

    Small Upgrade, but worth it.

    I have been using my Day One edition Xbox One since it came out, figured it couldn't hurt to get the S. It's a nice upgrade, coming in with a smaller footprint, it's fast, and significantly quieter. I was on the fence and thought I would wait for Scorpio, but didn't. If you have an Xbox One, it's not a needed upgrade, hold off for the Scorpio. If you are new to Xbox and want to test the waters prior to the Scorpio, the Xbox One S is worth every penny. Happy Gaming!

    I would recommend the 1 TB over the 500 GB. The storage space disappears quickly. If you buy the 500 GB purchase an external hard drive. Especially if you have several users on one unit. Great platform! Easy to navigate.

    Much better than the original Xbox One. Smaller, lighter, quieter, and no power brick makes this a great purchase.

    As someone who doesn't game a whole lot, I'd say the Xbox One S is perfect for my needs. The games are fun and the graphics are amazing! Its some good down time for me and my wife, plus we got an awesome deal from best buy. The only down side I would have to say is that if you want to play any kind of multiplayer be prepared to buy an xbox gold pass. It's worth it if you play enough. Overall this is a great gaming console even for those who are not a hardcore gamer.

    Gosh, I really don't play games that much but for the 4K player, could not beat the price. As a bonus I can play games! What's not to like? Recently purchased a 4K TV and needed a new player to accommodate my new TV.

    I was never much of a gamer and I honestly wanted this more for streaming 4K and the 4K Blu-Ray drive that PS4 doesn't currently offer. Not only does the 4K look awesome but gaming on this is a blast. If you are looking for media and gaming get this, as it has more capabilities overall compared to the PS4. It is more of a pain to setup tho; need the blu-ray app and your tv/Xbox properly configured before it will work...overall still totally worth it.

    Xbox bundle with Battlefield 1

    I purchased this bundle because I did not like the olive green version. The item is well packaged and easy to set up. I got the Xbox bundled with a TV and received a free controller with this set-up. Xbox One is not as easy to use on Xbox Live as the 360, but I've been away for some time. The controller is good to the touch and the deck is attractive in its white scheme. I would not hesitate to buy this bundle if you want the Battlefield 1 game.

    Bought this for the 4K player and also for the Xbox exclusives. Don't have another 4K Blu ray player to compare with but this one is great. Have watched several 4K Blu rays and no issues. Quality and speed are great. Have Battlefield 1, Forza Horizon 3 and Gears of War 4. All games look great and are fun. One thing i don't like though is the UI. The PS4 has a more friendly UI. I should have gone with the 1TB but 500GB should be good for now.
