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.

    Awesome console, got the X for myself and S for someone as a gift, only docking a star because there’s no disk tray

    This is a massive upgrade over my One X. I did not expect a huge difference, and I’m blown away. Wi-Fi is drastically improved, and games load and look better. This is the perfect step into next gen console gaming. Very fair price for what you get. A+ product

    I own 2 xbox series x's, this is the first series s ive had and got it for my spoiled daughter. Everything is great as expected from microsoft but had an issue with freezing within games, the home screen didnt freeze though. So its probably just a small hiccup i can fix with reinstalling games. Overall Xbox offers plenty of family safety features for the little ones so we can be more informed and have tabs on purchases and communications online. Good buy.

    At the time when I bought this, consoles seemed to just be hard to find, but Best Buy has it in stock, as I knew they would! Just to be sure, I buy it online so it's saved for me for sure, no matter when I get there, go pick it up!

    Hi, the package came as expected. I purchased this to give it as gift for the upcoming holidays. This is an excellent console if your intention its to play only multiplayer games without too much resolution.

    Great system if you want to play new gen games without the inflated price tag. Id recommend this if you just need something to play a few games on.

    Very great service and got in and out fast. The salesman directed me to the item quick and checked us out right after. The Xbox is super quick and loads games very fast. The set up took minutes and was ready to go.

    I’ve never owned Xbox consoles but I love my series S. I love the look and feel of the controller. I recommend trying out Gamepass, it’s worth getting an Xbox just to subscribe to the service!
