Great console to ply warzone or zombies on if you don’t have a 4K tv or monitor. Also best bang for the buck. No disks so don’t worry about that. Make sure to buy extra storage space!

Love this Xbox. It runs great I do wish I had more storage but I got a hard rice add on and that helps!!

It was a very good xbox! Nice and clean design as well as very compact so it was good for traveling. Overall i would definitely recommend.

I've already had a series x for 2 years and bought this for the bedroom because of how cheap it was. Honestly playing on a 22-in 1080p TV. It works perfect. The hard drive is small but for me this is not a problem as I'm only installing a few games on this one anyway as the series x works as the main Xbox for the family. I still feel though that this would work as a great main Xbox, especially if you're shopping on a budget. I don't see you having a problem with it. The picture won't look as good obviously on a giant 4K TV, but if you're playing on a smaller display or if graphics aren't that important, I highly recommend this.

Great product for the price and it runs games really well, But you're definitely going to need an external Hard drive or the seagate expansion card.

Got this as a very special Christmas gift from our nephews. Somehow they found out a Best Buy near them had series S systems a few days after Christmas, they didn’t keep it for themselves but gave it to me because they knew the new Xbox was something I wanted. Going for a Xbox one S is easy, we kept most of our games on portable hard drive so swapped it over. It feels a little underwhelming at first because the interface looks just like the Xbox one but man is it faster. All the old app work great, seem to load quicker and in some cases look better. Biggest gripe is the internal storage is too small, I know it’s cutting edge and expensive but it’s easy to fill up. For example COD War Zone and black ops filled the disk, when the update came the both could no longer fit. Do we bought the 1tb internal storage upgrade which is brilliant but expensive. Really cool how it installs and is ready to go. BTW COD Black ops multiplay plays much faster than the Xbox one edition, guess that’s to be expected since this Cold War was made for Series S &X not playing the old systems software. Really happy with it but still would like a series X. Still this does 90% of all we need it to.

While the Xbox Series X is more appealing to me (better 4k support, disc drive, black colorway), the Series S has a key super power: you can actually buy it. I found that Microsoft has really blurred the lines between Xbox One and Xbox Series, and the Series S performs a lot like a better Xbox One X. Nothing to complain about, but it also doesn't feel like an entirely new product. The styling is a little goofy but serviceable. The size is very compact and portable for a home console. Game Pass may be the best value in gaming, and this box is a great way to tap into that giant ecosystem of old and new games.

Decided to buy this since I can never find the Series X. This little machine does not disappoint. I even received it early. Had a slight issue with the WiFi disconnecting every 20 minutes, but after I reset the console this hasn’t happened since. The connection is great, apps are fast and games load up in seconds. I am very happy with this purchase. I actually have most games digital so I could care less about not having the disc drive. I love how small this console is and quiet as well. The machine does not even get hot. You could easily take this with you out of town. I ended up buying the SSD expansion drive, which is pretty expensive so it was like buying the Series X, still I am very happy I decided to buy this. I figure they’ll be coming out with the pro version in the next few years, so I’ll probably upgrade then.

Microsoft has done an excellent job with the Series X/S. The One S was pretty good, but this one blows the doors off that one. It runs pretty cool and it is really fast. Have yet to try connecting an external hard drive, but if it is anything like the One S then it should be a cinch. I also need to give tons of kudos to Best Buy for how they managed their new stock between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I managed to get a unit with time to spare before Christmas thanks to the "waiting line" they instituted to release stock during the day after they replenish some. It worked as advertised and made it significantly harder for the 3rd party re-sellers from buying-up the newer stocks. Many thanks Best Buy for the forward thinking and change to allow a more level playing field in acquiring these hard-to-find units. We had a blast in Christmas thanks to this.

I already had an Xbox Series X for my family room but bought this unit to use in my bedroom. I’m surprised how much of a punch it provides despite the lower entry price and lower specs. I have a 65” TCL TV in the bedroom which isn’t the best HD TV but games look and run great on it. Only issue is the limited storage space but I bought an external SSD for it which works great. Great value for the price.

The product has been fantastic so far, I have enjoyed it very much. Incredibly smooth gameplay and quick loading speeds have made this console a must have. The only downside I have came across is the storage, enough space for 2-3 large games. But given the low price and download speeds, it’s not much to complain about. Very happy with this purchase.

Love the size of this console. Wish it had more memory for games as I tend to buy everything digital. At least you can add more memory for the future. Plays everything smooth. I didn't need 4k and everything still displays fantastic.

Hello to anyone reading this! I’ve always been a huge Xbox fan for countless years, and was skeptical when it came to the Xbox Series S. It surpassed my expectations, and I actually love this little thing! It’s strong, and extremely portable! Highly recommend for someone looking for a cheaper console, but hanging with the new, powerful consoles.

Its small, quiet, and a lot of fun. Got it for myself and a roomate and we both can use it when we want. No disc slot which is fine for me. I dont need to have that as i stream everything anyway and i dont care about return value on trade in. For thise that want to buy physical discs this is not for you. The smaller memory is kinda nnoying but truth be told i dont keep to many games on it at once so no impact yet. Overall i would recommend for a fun gather around or hey maybe its just for you, wither way i think youll enjoy

I had to replace my son’s Xbox One (I know it was old and outdated) and replaced it with this Xbox. I love that it’s smaller and faster. My son enjoys it! And for the price it is definitely worth it!

Very nice gift First video console for my daughter. She’s happy Nice price, good video game console and definitely good for a gift. Still you can download more games plus those he has already

If you’re on the fence and think the Series S is only a 1080p game console...think again. Every optimized for X|S game that I have played (which is most) has run in stunning 4K 60fps with HDR. I upgraded from Xbox One S and this console looks and runs light years ahead. You will not be disappointed if you can’t get your hands on the Series X. The Series S will give you more than you would expect. The absolute only reason I would say to wait for a Series X is if you have a brand new 4K 120fps tv or monitor. Surprisingly the Series S can actually run 120fps but only at 1080p which is amazing for the size and price of this console. I don’t plan on upgrading my tv for another few years so the Series S is more than enough for most people. Just buy it and you will love it. It’s brought my love for gaming back. Thanks Xbox!

Excellent console and very good graphics for not being 4k run smooth the only thing is the storage but you can make it bigger with a expansion card

This is a pretty good console. I also have the PS5 now so I use this much less and my siblings really use it as their own now. But for a while, it was my primary console and it was great. The Xbox interface is so smooth and simple to use. I had the Gamepass while I used it and it allowed me to play so many games without buying them outright. One of the bigger downsides of the console is the internal storage size which really only allowed me to have a select few games installed to play at any given moment. I knew that storage would probably be an issue when I purchased it but I only knew for sure once I already had it. Other than that, it ran every single game I played on it smoothly and its smaller form factor helped me save space.

I already have a PS5, and wanted an SX for Game Pass, but as you know they are hard to come by and reached on the SS. I already own a One X, and I am playing on a 2.1 4K TV, so I was worried this would not be an upgrade. I am very impressed,and honestly, this is the perfect little GP machine. I have run One X against it on the same tv and the difference is more than I thought. I’m sure you’ve heard the knock that it is not native 4K, but upscaled on my TV it is barely noticeable. The 120 FPS and ray tracing is very noticeable, however. This little machine is the best bargain of the new generation. This is not a PS5, but the perfect compliment to one or is perfect for someone looking for a next gen and find this one available. Three hundred bucks is the cost of 4 games off Game Pass.
