Customer Ratings & Reviews

My son has had a hard year last year . He had the first Xbox . It lagged , shut off sometimes. My mom had been promised him a new one for over a year . (They got money ) so even though I’m broke just surviving I purchased the Xbox, Siri S it’s not the newest one but it’s newer . He loves it . His gaming has improved its fast . I would definitely buy another one.

This Xbox does excellent if you know what you’re buying! I have a series x in my gaming room but wanted a series s in my room for late night bed binge gaming at times! This tv does that just well, play all my favorite games just fine and with a good tv it looks just as good as my series x!

This Xbox is Amazing Best Buy’s is extremely reliable and has great quality products for any brand and they do great deals and have pretty good prices.

This was a gift to for my son and he was very happy with this Xbox but Xbox is broken now and can’t figure out why

Really enjoying the xbox! It works very well, and easy to set up!

Purchased for my 11yr old. This is amazing and all digital so it saves from having to enter each disc while playing. It only holds 512GB I believe. But from Amazon an $80 4TB expansion fixed that problem.

I actually purchased two of these Xbox bundles from Best Buy for Christmas for my children. I have 6 kids so buying two was a must. And I am not disappointed with my purchase whatsoever I got a great deal for some awesome Christmas gifts that keep them occupied. I definitely recommend hitting up Best Buy they have great deals! Thanks guys!

I’ve never owned an Xbox gaming system before but I am loving this one! I think the last gaming system I had as the PS2 and when getting a new one. I was between this one and the PS5. Let me tell you, I am so glad I went with this one. I love it so much and I love their gaming subscription because I can play a bunch of games for a small price per month. It’s like Netflix but for games

Great console fantastic graphics fast load time A+++

The Xbox Series S had me skeptical when it was first unveiled to the public. I mean, after all, how powerful can it be with 4TB and being such a compact system? I upgraded from the Xbox One X to this system, so I was a little unsure at first that the system would be worth it. Needless to say, I was definitely mistaken. The Xbox Series S was packaged very well and definitely gets points for its presentation, but that's not where it carries its weight. The system's real qualities lie under the hood, so to speak. It loads games fast - and they are beautiful, without a doubt. The new share button on the controller is great for taking screenshots in-game without having to go to an out-of-game menu, and the system runs cool and quiet (like most Xbox systems do). It's compact and isn't bulky at all - an important feature for people who have space constraints. And, if the 512GB isn't enough for you (it's actually closer to 370GB of actual useable space), it has an expansion slot for SSDs (I recommend using approved SSDs - Best Buy sells at least one brand of these and it also works very well). In closing, the system is fast, compact, and is next-gen without requiring as much of a financial investment as its big brother, the Xbox Series X.

I Have Always Been A Xbox Fan. The Experience With This Console Is The Best & It Was Definitely Worth The Money. I Just Wish There Was A Headset Included With The Console Or A On The Controller.

I went with the cheaper option and I’m glad I did.

I originally bought this system when the Series X version was hard to come by. While I did enjoy using this system for the first year I had it, I didn't realize just how much I, personally, miss when a gaming system is without a disc drive. Since this is from my personal experience, I must admit that I would use my old Xbox as a DVD / Blu-Ray player -- however, with this system, that obviously couldn't be done. I will say this though: I loaned the system to my brother who doesn't have as much time to play as I would, and used it to a better advantage than I could. Overall, I would recommend this system to a gamer that doesn't have that much time since it has pretty quick load times and is a super light model to move around on the go.

Console is relatively good but amazing for the price point

So there are a lot of great things about the Series S. This is not really a gaming machine. It’s a gaming appliance. It’s fully digital. It’s amazingly fast on wake up and is quick all around. It has tons of apps. I don’t know how well versed in digital games you are, but this feels like a new way of gaming. It’s actually kind of cute in its own industrial brutalist sort of way. It hides behind the tv well. The controller is responsive. The machine came with HDMI cable so that’s a perk. Remember, you are at the mercy of digital games. I signed up for XBox ultimate for a special 3 month deal. It lets me download 100+ games. I’m happy with that deal for now but if you like physical games get the Series X. Last at 512gb SSD I know it is not going to be a lot of space. I think 1TB is better but again this was a great deal and since stock is low, I jumped on the 512. I’ll probably expand the memory down the line.

In view of the shortage of PS5s, I decided to buy an Xbox Series S, because it was cheaper than its big brother and because it was the only thing available without having to pay double or triple its normal price (thanks scalpers!). I've never been a fan of Microsoft consoles, so I have no reference point, but this console has been a pleasant surprise, it works very well, it's fast, the Quick Access feature is fantastic. The negative points that I find are the lack of games and the small storage it has. I know that there are games that are optimized for the XbSS but are games that I have previously played on PS4 or PC, there are still no exclusives for this console. It may not be as powerful as its big brother, but the Xbox Series S is a good, reasonably priced console. Oh! Almost forgot it... the size of this thing is excellent, horizontal or vertical, it fits anywhere.

Quality isn’t great but good for price. Not a lot of storage either.

If you can find it the XBOX Series “S” is a great system for game play. No, it’s not as powerful as the “X”, it doesn’t have as much storage space (364GB of 512GB useful) and it doesn’t have an optical drive BUT that doesn’t stop it from being a great gaming system. I’m using mine connected to a 70” 4K tv and the graphics look great. While the “S” won’t do 8K or 4K @120FPS, it will do 4K @60FPS and 120FPS @ 1440p! It supports Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos if you have it. The lack of an optical drive means no movies or disc based games, it is all digital, all the time! Great for Game Pass. That will require storage space. Your options are the expensive Extended Storage Cartridge ($220) but you can also add external storage. I added a 1TB SSD and an 8TB HDD. All backwards compatible games go on either of the 2 external drives. Games I want to load faster go to the SSD. The rest to the 8TB. All X/S games are either internal or Extended Storage. Now, before anyone says for all that you could’ve bought the Series “X”, my response is that before long anyone with a big library will have to do the same even on the “X”! The difference is that I saved $200 over all and could care less about 8K gaming! Did I mention it’s small? It’s actually minuscule compared to the PS5 and compact next to the big ugly rectangle “X”. Halo looks and plays great, Forza 6/7 looks and plays great! In fact every game I’ve played looks and plays great! Who needs 12 TFLOPS when 4 will do just fine?

The Xbox Series S All-Digital is an excellent gaming platform, especially if you want to disassociate yourself from the hard-discs used for games. The console is space-conscious, blends into it's surroundings and looks good. Most importantly the processor is fast. Red Dead Redemption has no lag, nor do the other games my kids play. It's a real good buy, and I highly recommend it. The only issue I had was that I couldn't set it up using my iPhone, but my son set it up in under 5 minutes using his Android. As both gamer kids say, "it's way better than the older XBox we have". PS My cat sitting on the console is 4 mos old, so that gives you an idea of the actual size.

Love my Xbox it comes with enough storage for the games I want and it makes it much easier now that all I have to do is just download the games rather then have a storage of games at home.
