Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Xbox Series S's low price, excellent performance, and crisp graphics. Many also praise its compact size and ease of use, finding it a great console for the family. However, some users point out the limited storage space as a significant drawback, and the lack of a disc drive is also a recurring concern for some buyers. While some experience occasional heating issues or lag, these are not universally reported problems.

    If you are a gamer, I recommend the Series S. The download speeds are fast, and the graphics are AMAZING! Only complaint is if you are downloading something you can NOT do anything else on the Xbox till the download is complete. Other then that it's fantastic!

    I've had older xbox consoles in the past but am pretty much a Playstation gamer. I bought so i could purchase classic titles on the xbox store. Final fantasy xiii, blue dragon and castlevania lords of shadow look great. Very happy with my purchase!

    My son’s previous console stopped working so I purchased this as a graduation gift. I thought I was buying the exact same model he had previously but it turned out that this was an upgrade so it was a nice bonus surprise for him!

    I have this version of Xbox before and never had a problem with it. The only downside is the amount of store. You have to buy an external hard drive if you want to play all your games without having to uninstall and download

    My kids and I absolutely love our Xbox, buy it! It was easy to set up, I purchased the game pass and in a few minutes everyone was playing their favorite games. I know it has less storage but it's ok I can buy other devices for storage in the future.

    Probably the easiest way to get into gaming. Game pass offers a great value especially if you want to play 7th Gen games only downside is you can't use physical media with this unit.

    This is my second Xbox series s The first one I bought for my son. I bought this one so that I could game online with him. These things are so amazingly small and powerful that that's what sold me over a Xbox series x

    Great console just wish it had more memory none the less you can always add storage cards to it to expand the memory but if your just using it for entertainment and not gaming then 512gb is all you need

    Great console to play your everyday game! If you’re great a shooting games such as Fortnite or Call of Duty you get great graphics! Or if you’re a casual player Xbox has a lot of fun games to choose from.

    Can definitely see the difference in the upgrade from the Xbox One. Storage may be an issue for some but I really only play COD once or twice a week. If you're a casual gamer like me you'll likely be fine with this.

    Great Find. I got this Xbox at a great deal. It was a week before Microsoft release the all black version. I wanted an Xbox but not at the retail price because I rarely game. So far so good. The kids love it.
