Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had good luck ordering through Best Buy. The pickup was fast and easy and the Xbox Series S is honestly the best bang for your buck. It does everything I need it to and it is a step up from the Xbox One X. Plus, it fits right into the entertainment center perfectly and is quiet as a mouse.

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.

Everyone likes to diminish the Series S, but it’s definitely a worthy choice, depending on your situation. For me, I don’t have any disks, I only download and play a few games at a time, and it still runs and plays games amazingly on a 4K TV. And for $300, it was an easy choice for me.

Cheaper than the Xbox one X but nearly just as good. This this such a good console if you are looking to play next gen games but don’t want to break the bank.

The series S is a great value for those who don’t have the need to play a ton of games. You can download up to 5 games depending on the size of the game. Like other next gen consoles you must have internet to play the Xbox.

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.

Next gen gaming for a decent price. The big draw for me was upgrading to the potential of 120fps, just make sure if that is what interests you most with any next gen system that your tv or monitor had a refresh rate if 120hz, if it is a 60hz tv then you will be able to hit 60fps max.

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!

Was very satisfied with the product ,but even more with the customer service. Ran into a problem with the shipping on ups end ,but BestBuy corrected it for me.

Very happy with the S, not playing 4k so don't need the big brother. Unit is surprisingly small, which is great - I was able to mount it on the back of the TV so it's completely out of site (custom mounting that I improvised myself) and being disc-free positioning is not a relevant.

Love the conslole it’s fast. Storage it a bit of an issue as you can really only use about 300 of the 500 gigabytes in the console, but that can be solved with a storage expansion and I don’t just mean the expensive sea gate drive. Regular hard drives work as long as they are at least USB 3.0. Additionally it seems to get very hot so maybe there is an issue with ventilation or maybe I don’t have it set up right. Other than those things it’s a great buy.

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'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.

One thing that i liked I can play any game that i want

Amazing console! I've always used Xbox and this runs all of my games perfectly and pairs amazing with our Sony Bravia line TV! Even older titles like BLACK and the Dead Space trilogy!

I have both Series X and A. SERIES x is definitely more powerful but I love how compact this Series S model is. If graphics isn't really important to you or maybe you have a 1080ptv and no4, I would really recommend this model over series x. Game pass is highly recommend too

Love this little Xbox. I’m a PS5 player first and foremost, so I knew the Xbox would take a back seat, but excellent for what I use it for. Lack of disk drive can be frustrating, but super fast and great if you use it for things like Netflix and all in addition to games.

Love this Xbox. I went with the S because I couldn’t get my hands on an X, but honestly it’s more than enough for me. I upgraded from an original Xbox one, so the leap is enormous. The speed that this Xbox runs in comparison to the Xbox one is night and day.

Great Console with fast speeds, the one downside this that you can only download literally 3 games and run out of storage so be prepared to buy an extension hard drive and they can run up to $220 for the lates model of Xbox extension card. Xbox can run up to 120GHZ and Run 4K

I bought the Xbox series s for both my son & daughter for Christmas last year (2021) my son love his Xbox my daughter doesn’t. I don’t like it neither I want to get the series x because all the games with the console is online. It says that the device has 512 gb but that’s a lie because my son doesn’t have a lot of games & already his storage is full. I wouldn’t really recommend but to each it’s own.
