Microsoft Knocks it Out of the Park Again
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Microsoft knocked it out of the park with both the Xbox Series X and the Xbox Series S! I would recommend either of them, the graphics are amazing, the load times even more amazing, and they're both compact enough to not take up huge amounts of room, like their counterpart PS5...

I would recommend this to a friend He really wanted it!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this console as a Christmas gift, so the young man who will receive it has yet to test it out. However, he has played with it at friends' homes and he love it. So, I am confident that he will enjoy various games with this Xbox for a long time.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for my niece she loves playing this system. She wanted a PS5 initially but I was unable to get my hands on one. This system was the back up plan. She loves it and has forgotten all about the PS5. She enjoys playing online with friends and family.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat value and portability.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this console for its small form factor and price tag. One thing reviewers have not touched on is the portability of the console. Fit snuggly in my backpack as I travelled for 40 hours+. With the absurd prices PC gaming costs, this is probably your best bet for cheap, 2k gaming.

Low Memory BUT Great for Everything Else
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a purchase for my son and he absolutely loves it. He plays a ton of Fortnite and I love watching him play on the 4k tv. Graphics are really nice. I can buy the hard drive for more storage, but games download quickly and he's not complaining. Overall great product.
I would recommend this to a friendExactly what I was looking for
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this system. I love the size and sleek design. It is so much smaller than the PS5 and just as powerful. I don’t buy disc games anymore so it is perfect for me. It is also affordable and is easy to find. I definitely recommend the XBOX Series S to all games both hardcore and casual!
I would recommend this to a friend10/10
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Outstanding! I bought this console I believe about 2 years ago and it still just runs at incredible speeds and has very good graphics! Highly recommend!!!!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat machine for a great price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Got it for my granddaughter and she loves it. I have the series x in the living room hooked up to the good tv. She has a small tv in her bedroom and this is perfect for her. She has already earned 21000 Microsoft Rewards points which is nearly $25. Couldn’t be happier
I would recommend this to a friendGreat buy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent system plays all games in 4k resolution didn't really think I would like the digital version though, found that it wasn't bad only problem is it doesn't have enough storage. I have five games downloaded and the one I just bought wouldn't download unless I deleted one or two.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finding got my hands on this console. I bought this for my son and he loves it. I appreciate the simple process to get this product. Overall the devices works well, don’t take up a lot of space, however; storage went out fast but nothing that an external drive won’t fix.
I would recommend this to a friendIf you can’t get a PlayStation 5....,,,
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ok it’s not the ps5 but I already got that so I got the series s because I was not going to pay the same as a ps5 with less games, yes I am PlayStation guy but I did get a series s just so I could enable dev mode and run retro arch and run generations of consoles. For that reason alone 5 star
I would recommend this to a friendSeries S rules.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This machine is better than people think. Yes it is the “budget console” but this thing is pretty strong and I can enjoy all the next gen and optimized games on it. Would definitely recommend getting the expansion ssd because the internal storage is small even for previous generation.
I would recommend this to a friendXBOX S
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter loves this xbox and the ease of downloading the games instead of having a cd.

Excellent Gaming System

I would recommend this to a friend X Box Series S
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My son absolutely loves this gaming system over the previous generation. It has more dynamic worlds, faster load times, and the design is really nice. Happy of the price as well. The only thing is you will need to buy an external drive for more storage space.
I would recommend this to a friendGood Cheap option
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used xbox for as long as i can remeber and this xbox fills every need i have except for the storage dept only 500gb in 2024 is diabolical but you can buy an external storage if needed
I would recommend this to a friendGot lucky.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got lucky and scored this during a restock. Awesome upgrade from the XBox one. Shipping box was a little thrashed, but the series S box was pristine. Shipped fast, and on time with the estimate. All in all, great experience, and so happy I finally got one of these!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat for the price compared to the X
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had both the Series S and the Series X and it's hard to see the difference really. For the price, this seems to be the winner. Only downside is the smaller harddrive. Otherwise, great gaming system.

Posted .Hi Scott,
We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Series S. If you're running low on storage, you have a couple of options. The best solution is to invest in the Seagate SSD 1TB Expansion Card for Xbox Series X/S, which will add 1TB of SSD storage to your console. For more information, go here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/seagate-storage-expansion-card-for-xbox-series-xs-1tb-solid-state-drive-nvme-expansion-ssd-for-xbox-series-xs/6425015.p?skuId=6425015
Another solution is to add a standard external hard drive, which can be used to store and play Xbox 360 and Xbox One games that have not been enhanced for Xbox Series X/S.
We hope you have a lot of fun with your Xbox.
Happy gaming,
Chuck
