Customer Ratings & Reviews

This thing is a great value for what it is. Plays most stuff quickly and smoothly. Huge step up from yhe base xbox one.

Over all pretty happy with it . It downloads and starts up much faster then my Xbox one x. The video quality looks great 1440p - 4K upscale on my tv. I wanted the series x but availability is crap. The only thing I don’t like is it’s not native 4K and not having a disk drive aren’t really super important but still would be nice . Major down fall is the storage or lack there of . You can have like 3 titles stored before taking up all your space . The aftermarket memory card will be a must if you plan to use this as your only console. I’m using my usb storage for now for my Xbox one games luckily I only own 3 games formatted for the series s . I will eventually make this console my back up / bedroom console snd upgrade to the series x. But if you don’t have the money for the big guy this console is plenty enough for everyday gaming . I have it four stars because it is a nice console.

Great console. And very portable. Take it everywhere I go

Love this thing. Pack's a big punch in a small package. Super quick and so portable. Game pass with this thing is the way to go!

Pairing this with a gaming 1440p monitor is a dream combination. The series S can pump out amazing frame rates and performance on games like Forza Horizon 4 and other larger games while making indie games run to their best potential. Its a gamepass machine with a ton of tricks up its sleeve. If you're considering it just get it, its such a joy and has such a cool sleek design and minimalist footprint.

As you can add storage to the Series S, it can size-wise compete with the X and PS5. Running-wise, it's pretty smooth. There may be a few hiccups here and there on AAA games, but overall? It's a great buy--except that the controllers sometimes get stick drift and/or their trigger springs wear down. But that's a problem with many current-gen controllers, so it doesn't knock down my overall feeling about the console any.

Really good Xbox small and compact only low on storage

My son loves the Xbox. I had the original one when I was younger and it still works.

The series s is a good side choice if you can't afford the series x. I've had good experiences with the console in the past, using it for long hours without it slowing down or anything, i even accidentally dropped it a few times and i would've thought i'd have to go and get it fixed but no problems happened after. The only major problem i had with the series s was the space capacity, after a few games i had to delete some to make space which gets frustrating but you just have to buy extra storage no real way around it which is fine. Still a great console nonetheless.

Amazing system especially when paired with game pass. 1440p is perfectly fine imo and looks great, wish the drive was a little bigger but I added a usb c ssd portable (Samsung T5 500gb) for all the xboxone games. Series x was too hard to get (always sold out) and so freaking big, so I actually didn’t mind/kind of prefer series s. You’ll be shocked at how small it is when you open it.

I love how small it is! Runs a little faster too. The people at Best Buy made my shopping experience great too.

This is truly an amazing console. I was originally going to buy the Xbox series x, but due to the current pandemic, I went with the cheaper option. I am so glad I did. The Xbox series s is so much better then people make it out to be. Really the only downsides to this console is the storage and the disc drive, but even then you can just buy and external hard drive with 2tb of storage. This console is complete and udder overkill for loading games such as gta v. It’s like only 5 seconds and the. You in.

High quality gaming. Great price! Unit is small, way smaller then i expected. So much tech in such a small package. I hope overheating is not an issue. High end pcs need massive cooling. So far, unit is cool to the touch. Very quiet unit. Graphics are fantastic on 1080p projector. A 4k projector would be even better. Future purchase a must. The only downside for me with the new xbox units, No optical out. I use a stereo receiver and have always used optical for quality sound. Hdmi sound is great and all, but when using a projector to receiver to xbox, there are video issues. Now i have to use audio out on projectorto receiver. If you are using a tv, you won't have any issues. Overall, i give the xbox 4 stars. I wish companies would leave stuff alone. If it isn't broke, don't fix it! Should have left optical out on system. And a kinect port. Now i need the adapter.

At first this was my only choice since I initially wanted the series x but since the series x was constantly going out of stock, I settled for the series s. And I gotta say for 300 dollars it’s actually a well worth purchase it processes games faster, and better graphics, so overall recommend for anyone not wanting to spend more than 300$. The only downside I can see to this one is that it all digital. So you’ll need good internet connection to download your games. But other than that it’s very good

Compact, easy to use, affordable gaming console. No disc means no playing older games. Can have difficulty playing newer titles compared to Xbox series x

System is super fast… graphics are crazy! … runs nice and smooth… I love the smaller size and love how the controller updates

Is compact and it runs as expected,but they should have no long before this console came out that one terabyte should be the minimum in any console. You constantly have to delete things. Not to mention the expansion is really expensive it's about half the price of the console.

This xbox series s is definitely great quality, amazing build, and afforable. Easy to travel with, easy to store on your tv stands or mount and definitely great its slim and fits pretty much anywhere. Doesnt overheat so can play for hourAsss

I went with this option because I have a ps5, switch oled, & a pretty good pc that basically already plays Xbox games but I wanted something small and for my nephews to use. This is perfect, that goes for emulation and playing classic games but if you want to install games such as red dead just keep in mind you gotta spend another $200 to expand the storage, at that point just buy a series x since it’ll perform a lot better
