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.

    Starfield has consumed my life after buying this Xbox. The greatest and worst decision I've ever made.

    It's an xbox. Series S is a cheap upgrade to the One. Definitely worth it for performance alone vs the XB1

    If you say 512 GB, mean it.

    System comes bloated so you get nowhere near 512 GB free to DL your own stuff. Good overall system and can definitely tell that the system is faster than last gen. Other than the actual free space available, not bad for a cheaper upgrade. 4 out of 5.

    Great system. Big graphics upgrade from the one S. Does have small storage and will need to expand it. This will run anywhere Dom $85-$150 fending on what expansion card you decide to get. Can only fit 3-4 major title games on the 512gb drive.

    I love this console. And I wanted to thank the staff at Best Buy for going above and beyond every time I've visited their store. They always take the time to help, and I've never had a single issue all the times I've been in store. And I've gotten better deals from Best Buy than online and would much rather have the option to walk into a brick and motor store so I can return something. Thank you!
