    This is my first Xbox console! This console is amazing to use and play games on it. I use this console with Game Pass Ultimate. You can has this as a secondary console and use game pass to play any Xbox games.

    Underrated, unless you have a 4K tv, this is the Xbox to get. The graphical improvement of the series x is only worth it if you have a high end 4K tv like an oled. If not, grab this and enjoy! You won’t be missing out on anything!

    Needs a bigger SSD or better external options

    I really like the size of this console and how fast everything loads. If not for the SSD that is WAY too small and the inability to use true 4k @ 120hz I would give it 5 stars. Since you cannot (currently) use an external SSD that isn't the $220 proprietary accessory Microsoft has to install new games on, the 512 SSD is extremely limiting. I was able to install 4 AAA games and had 3% left in space. In the short time I've had the console, its already become a problem for me. I recommend the series x for the extra space, but even 1TB seems too small for the amount of games that are 100gb or more.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hi there,

      We're sorry that Xbox Series S hasn't met expectations. Another alternative for adding more storage is to get a standard external hard drive. While games optimized for Xbox Series X/S may not be played from an external hard drive, older games that are not enhanced can be. For more information on which games are optimized for Xbox Series X/S, please go here: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/optimized

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    1080p beast? Check. 1440p beast? Check. 4k beast? It’s manageable on the right display. So check. Available? You’re absolutely right. Unlike the PS5 and Series X, this is available.

    I’ve had no issues and it runs the way it should. Would recommend an external drive for serious gamers. I only keep 2 or 3 installed at one time.

    My son says he like the game. I did curbside pick for this product. I did not have to wait long for my item to be brought to me. There was a delay however on when to item was ready for pick I had to wait a few extra days, but that was understandable.

    Great Budget Next Gen Console

    Great low cost next gen console. If you are playing from a 1080p TV this is the unit for you. Games still look great and half the price of a PS5 or Xbox One and much more availability. Also great to use for emulators and older games.

    Replacement for our old one. I was worried since there is no slot for games, but this is better plus no clutter from game cases.

    Was skeptical about making the jump to get an Xbox. But I’m glad that I did, wish I’ve bought one sooner. Runs so smooth, thought it was an exaggeration on fast it loads. I love it

    The Xbox is definitely one powerful system that I enjoy and love so much. Not having to worry about buying a a CD and just being able to download the game is so great. Also buying it from Best buy made this whole process this whole experience very easy.
