Customers are saying

Customers commend the Xbox Series S for its affordability, compact size, and impressive performance, especially considering its price point. Many appreciate the ease of use and fast load times, along with the benefits of Xbox Game Pass. However, some users point out limitations in storage capacity and the lack of a disc drive as significant drawbacks. The console's resolution capabilities also receive mixed feedback.

    We were 2 systems behind but now we are almost up to date. Great product. Faster and able to handle better graphic capabilities. Controller feels great, which might not seem like much, but it has a slight texture that isn't offensive. A must buy at the $299 price we got it for plus we were able to get $150 for our old xbox1.

    Great entry level console for those looking to spend time gaming. Along with Game Pass, its an overall great buy for a child or those who would like to spend their downtime gaming.

    Purchase this system for my daughter. She doesn’t ask for much often so when I saw this on her Wish list, I knew it was a go. Purchased on sale which was great! She loves her new gaming system and plays with friends and family online too! Happy New Year!

    Good purchase affordable & small & light. The only problem is it has shut off about 3x’s since I had it. This can be fix by installing the “insider xbox app”. Download this & this should fix it. Once downloaded you’ll see something that says omega/delta this will fix it...

    This console is very fast! It plays all of my Xbox One games plus upscales to 4K. Looking forward to Series S enhanced games! A great upgrade and more than enough power for most gamers. If you really need a high end graphical experience, go for the Series X. Otherwise, this is more than enough power for most games to look and perform beautifully.

    This is the 2nd Xbox Series S I have. Purchased this one when I was stranded working in North Dakota for a couple of months and ordered a carrying case for it as well from another vendor. Worked well and was easy to purchase and pick up at the local best buy.

    Great console! I just upgraded to this from the One S and it’s way better. The storage could be better but for $300 it’s a really good pickup.
