Customer Ratings & Reviews

You really cant beat the bang for the buck. The only real issue would be the hard drive space. My daughters really only play a couple games at a time so it's perfect for them. I own 2 already it is small, but mighty. You can put about 3 to 6 games on the ssd depending on the size. I just picked up two external hhd for older games, but som S/X games will still run off of it.

Grandson absolutely loves this. And it’s so nice not to have to buy game cds any longer.

Once I got a Series X I kicked my old main the One X upstairs to my bedroom. Didn't take long to notice how cpu and transfer rate limited it is when compared to the new generation. So I picked up a Series S to "replicate" the Series X experience in my bedroom. Series S absolutely does the trick, gaming at my entertainment system or my bedroom feels the same which was what the Series S was designed to do, fantastic little device.

The Series S is unbeatable for the money. Feature wise it does it all with a small graphics hit. I own both systems and I have to be honest I like it almost as much as my Series X. If this was my only console I would not be sad. Buy this get a $85 dollar Sandisk extreme 500gb SSD which is lightning fast with this combo (I have it). Buy 2 or 3 games to get to the $500 mark of the X. Think about it?!

I love it I had the original x box when that came out and it broke and I just haven't had a gaming system since then but saw this on sale and winter coming up not much to do out to side so why not! Thanks best buy!

Awesome series console in the world lighting fastest system

Great console doesn’t take up any space on your dresser or wherever you would put it and for the digital only lovers I would highly recommend this console now you like to play the older OG Xbox and 360 games then get the series x it’s much easier to play whatever game you want

Best bang for the buck this is an amazing next gen budget console. This system with game pass is a no brainer. Small is downplaying this console. It’s freakin tiny & dead quiet. This is the perfect smart box for 300$. Play games. Stream movies. Take it anywhere with you. The speed alone loading & playing games is worth the price of admission. If you have a PlayStation & or switch, this is a great addition to the family.

Loving it so far! I wanted a series X fo course but decided I don't game enough to justify the extra $200 and the fact that you can't find a series X and I had $85 in Best Buy rewards pushed me towards the Series S. I bought an inexpensive Blu-ray player to go with it and I'm good to go! I converted 3 years of Xbox live Gold to Game Pass Ultimate for free and my gaming experience is incredible...

This new Series S exceeded my expectations about its performance, etc. I'm coming from a One S and it's night and day difference. I love that it looks good, it loads games almost instantaneously with "Quick Resume" and the experience from better graphics, load times and smoothness is worth more than the $299 price. I'm quite pleased with my purchase. I do feel to constraint with its measly storage but I get around that.

I bought this because I was former Flight Simulator fan for the PC. As far as consoles, I've been a loyal Playstation since the beginning ...until now. I was afraid a console version of Flight Simulator wouldn't meet my bar but, oh it does. The xbox runs it better than my hyped out PC used to. Very happy with my xbox(S) ..I will need an expansion card sometime!

It’s a bit smaller than the Xbox 1 but it’s very sleek looking. This is the best purchase I made from Best Buy! Even though both the new Xbox’s are hard to find but when you find one get it, you won’t be disappointed, just a fair warning it’s a discless Xbox so any Xbox games that you own you can’t use but you are able to download them from your Xbox one to the Xbox series S using the Xbox app

Nice xbox it only download the games no disc, works perfect.

Amazing next gen gaming only thing is you need to purchase extended memory

Excellent. Bought this for my college student grandson. He loves it and enjoys playing it with his friends.

Blown away at how powerful this little machine is. Probably the best value in a console

Good console for the price Just the 500gb feels a little short

Good purchase, definitely if your looking to get game pass, don’t expect Ps5 or Series X specs.. it’s awesome but limited in comparison to the other two.. I enjoy it a lot.

Never been much on digital games, but this was a chance to try out the new xbox. Now it all i buy dont have to worry about scratched disc. I own both xbox series x and s and both are great and i still buy digital

Awesome console. Great customer service. Xbox series S is most definitely worth it
