Customer Ratings & Reviews

Purchased for my god son. I have a series x and honestly after using both this is more than good enough for a casual gamer.

Bought this as a gift for my girlfriends dad and he really likes it. It’s powerful enough to play optimized next gen games and able to do it free of discs which is one less thing he has to worry about. Out of the box, setup is very simple even for brand new accounts. Would recommend this if you don’t have a big collection of physical games and are okay with the less powerful hardware compared to the Xbox Series X as well as storage space. Other than that, makes a great gift for people who new to the Xbox ecosystem, especially with GamePass!

As you can add storage to the Series S, it can size-wise compete with the X and PS5. Running-wise, it's pretty smooth. There may be a few hiccups here and there on AAA games, but overall? It's a great buy--except that the controllers sometimes get stick drift and/or their trigger springs wear down. But that's a problem with many current-gen controllers, so it doesn't knock down my overall feeling about the console any.

At the price point this is a great console. What you need to know is this. Yes this is a 1440p console. However, if you do not have a 4K capable display, you can not output in HDR. This is such a huge oversight. This product is sold as a 1440p console, yet, you cannot enable HDR unless you can output 4k on your display. I docked one star for this very reason.

Small yet powerful and fast. Hook up was a breeze. Needs a bigger ssd.

Good console love that its compact and easy to move

Best next-gen console for the price! At half the price of the Series X, and the PS5, this is a great entry into the next generation of gaming. Although it doesn't have a disc drive, I have plenty of digital games to play on it. It is pretty light on the storage though only clocking in at 364 GB of internal memory to use, but there are options to upgrade memory; whether through external storage, or an internal memory card (which can be a bit pricey). Coming from someone who owns a PS5, the Xbox Series S is no slouch.

I like it. Its small, quiet, & pretty cheap. I dont play a lot of games, so the interal storage is enough & you can always upgrade later

Bought this for my brother in law who was playing on my Xbox one x. The difference is huge. Super fast load times and amazing graphics!

The Xbox XS is truly an exceptional gaming console that stands out from the rest. Its outstanding level of performance is unmatched, making it the ultimate choice for any serious gamer out there. I'm really drawn to the Xbox XS when it comes to gaming consoles. It just has an incredible level of performance that really sets it apart from the competition. There's no doubt in my mind that this is the gaming console to beat if you're a serious gamer.

Excellent product functionality and consistency is top tier

Works as it should.. my 10yr olds first Xbox. He plays with me and his older brothers now. Wish it had more storage but it’s fine

Not much different than our Series One S. Still has the occasional freeze, and Microsoft makes it more difficult than necessary to share games within the family, but the new generation games work with no issues, which is why we had to replace our older version. I added the expansion drive to make sure we didnt run out of space, but I have not had to use it yet.

Only downside is that, if you like a variety of games like me, you wuickly run out of storage space. Apart from that, its perfect!

Let me start by saying that this is not nearly as good as the Series X or the PS5. If you are someone who does not have a 120hz 4k tv, this is your system. If your worried about space, ask what games do you play and how many do you constantly play. I play a couple of Series S/X games but put all the Xbox One games on an external drive. So, this works perfectly.

Good product , high speed, amazing 4k , good customizable product

The graphics are more clear. I recommend getting this. The only thing is the storage. If you get this be prepared to get more storage.

I LOVE THIS CONSOLE IT’S FAST FOR CHEAP! It’s very cheap for how amazing the console is and very fast. The low storage no problem too.

Worked perfect and setup was very easy! Kids love this and use it daily.

Hubs will love this gift! No need to space taking games on the entertainment center!
