Customers are saying

Customers love the Xbox Series S for its affordable price, impressive performance, and ease of use. Many appreciate the compact size and the inclusion of Game Pass, although some find the storage capacity limiting and the lack of a disc drive inconvenient. Positive feedback frequently highlights the console's smooth graphics and quick setup. A few users mentioned occasional overheating and short controller battery life as minor drawbacks.

    Bought this as a gift for my husband to replacw his old xbox and by comparison its SO much smaller and doesnt take up as much space as his old xbox Its so much faster too which is cool so i can play minecraft while hes gone or stream between the lions for our baby. Very efficient, storage friendly, and the game oass it came with really was a nice extra!

    Controller constantly disconnects, and games will randomly quit out and take you to Home Screen. Definitely a budget console but not worth the headache.

    My kids are very happy with this Xbox, very easy to use, it came with the game pass during 3 months. Easy to activate (just follow the indications and everything will go to the email you registered. Great game console for the price. We got a second controller

    The Microsoft Xbox Series S 512GB All-Digital Starter Bundle Console with Xbox Game Pass is a gaming delight that I recently acquired from Best Buy. This all-digital console in crisp white has elevated my gaming experience to new heights. The 512GB storage ensures ample space for digital games, and the included Xbox Game Pass subscription opens up a vast library of titles for endless entertainment. The disc-free gaming experience is not only convenient but also enhances the sleek and modern design of the console. Kudos to Best Buy for delivering a gaming bundle that goes beyond expectations, offering not just a console but a comprehensive gaming experience that has become the highlight of my leisure time.

    Where to find gamepads sub.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    So I have read a grip of comments regarding buyers not getting their three months sub. It's there trust me. However it is internally attached to the system hardware itself. In order to activate the gamepads sub you need to go into the Xbox settings. It's in there under what came with the system. I forget the exact area but it's in settings. If you fumble around your bound to stumble on it. The sub will only be for the starter system bundle though. It will not be a email code or psychical sub. Hope this helps someone out there. GG.
