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.

    As a gamer, this was a Xmas present . . . for myself. While Battlefield 1 is not my particular game of choice, it was a nice add-on. I love that the Xbox One plays Blu-Rays too!!!

    I traded my old Xbox one for a new Xbox one s. While it's mostly the same if you don't have a 4K tv or projector, you can tell a difference in connectivity and processing power.

    No complaints from the recipient. I am a Sony guy and prefer the PS4 however at this price (249) for Xbox one s it was a great price and came with battlefield which is and great game. Splitting hairs over Playstation vs. Xbox. Just know which one you want, go for it and enjoy :) they are both great consoles

    We received this free when we purchased our tv - we were thinking about getting the family a Wii-U prior to getting this with the new tv but this is a perfect fit for everyone!

    I saved quite a bit of money by purchasing an Xbox & laptop at the same time as a bundled option offered by Best Buy. Great decision...I couldn't be happier with both products.

    What else needs to be said, great console base now with 4K gaming. I'm normally a PC gamer but have enjoyed how easy the networking and online game play has become for consoles.

    Plenty of good games available and better at streaming than anything else I have. Some UI stuff is slow, but oh well. Haven't tried out 4K yet because my TV is a bit old now.

    Wanted a new sleek console aside from the Xbox I had already and this product delivered just that. No messy, bulky power cord and was just what I was looking for.

    I love the new Xbox One S. Beyond improved visuals (deeper colors, sharper images), there's a marked improvement in loading times. I would definitely recommend this console.

    I have had a lot of fun with my Xbox One S. I actually can tell the difference in HDR gaming with this unit vs the standard XboxOne. The colors look great.

    Sweet Christmas deal. Included extra controller and 3 month Gold card. With the large vent overheating shouldn't be a problem. (Unless someone covers it.) Highly recommend.

    I bought this to use as a 4K DVD player and the added bonus is that my little guy can play Minecraft LOL! It pairs great with my new Denon Receiver and my 75" 4K Sony TV.

    Upgraded from the Xbox One to this one. Got it only because it came with the TV. Only giving it 4 stars because the 1TB hard drive is a must. Games are so much larger now and with them being installed on the HD it takes up a lot of room. If you get the 500GB HD make sure to get a 1TB external drive.

    The Xbox is great though I would definitely recommend getting the external hard drive. Even if you buy hard copies of the games, you still have to download them to the xbox.

    A gaming system that includes a 4k blu ray player. There's not much more you could ask for. The library of games have increased in quality and have become very exceptional.

    Great game console. Slimmer and mot as noisy as its predecessors. It is very responsive and could stream 4K video. On top of its functionality, it is sleek and looks great.

    In short, awesome. Big change from the Xbox 360. Buy this thing or everyone, including your mom, will think you're lame. Ok, maybe not you're mom but everyone else will.

    Quiet System

    The unit is well put together. It is definitely an improvement over the 2013 version of the system. The only thing I don't like is the cheap plastic feel of the eject button. That shouldn't be an issue for most though since the blu-ray drive isn't used much if you download games and stream movies.
