Customer Ratings & Reviews

I came from an Xbox 1 original and I can definitely see the snappiness and the better graphics than the Xbox 1. It fits nicely in the current spot of the old Xbox 1. I was leading toward the Series X, but do to it’s high demand and the ridiculous prices from other merchants this was a no brainer. All my games are digital anyway so that along was a plus. The remote have a good texture in my hands in comparison to the old Xbox 1 remote. Say goodby to that brick for power as well the Xbox Series S only had a single cable to supply power. This is a must if you are in my current situation coming from the original Xbox 1.

Next best thing to get if can not find xbox X . Best thing you have game pass. You can play old xbox 360 to new with game pass. New games add weekly.

Excellent for gaming and watching movies. Graphics are not as great as the ps5 or series x but for the price its worth it.

Service was fast and smooth as expected got greeted as soon as I walked into the store and the employee was helpful with not only my pick up but also information regarding accessories to buy that coincide with the product

I love the quick resume function and the game pass services, 100% recommended

Pros: Small size and build quality; Quick Resume is excellent; Game load times are noticeably quicker than the One X (especially games like PUBG); if you’re not using a 4K TV or monitor, the Series S is good enough. Cons: No disk drive and small primary storage - you’ll be forced to buy more but it works well with external drives if you don’t want to opt for the $200 Seagate; Will need Game Pass or an already existing digital library to make up for lack of disk drive. Would buy the Series S before purchasing a One X but wouldn’t necessarily upgrade from One X to Series S. We have both.

Great gaming console and better than expected. It’s powerful, quiet, and compact. The graphics look great and fast loading and quick resume is an awesome feature coming from a One S. Originally, I was holding out for a Series X because I didn’t think this would be powerful enough and be up to standard, but I was wrong and am very happy with this purchase. Game pass also rocks on this. I only wish this console had a larger hard drive. I think 512 gb is small for today’s games so I may get external storage down the line but this isn’t needed right now (having 4 or 5 large games at a time is more than enough).

Very pleased with this purchase so far. This was a Christmas gift for my son and he loved it. It was easy to set-up and no issues. The price was great.

People's Main Concern: Only 512GB storage and only 300GB+ usable storage. My thoughts: Yes, the storage could be smaller than what is desirable these days but that is not the point of this console. Most people recommended this machine for GamePass but don't let them fool you. Add a 2TB (or more) external HDD and a 1TB Seagate Expansion Card (which is a must whether you have the Series X or S) and this machine can be turned into a 1080p beast gaming console. This is my very first non-Nintendo gaming console so I've been doing a lot of catching up to especially the games that can't be found in PC like RDR1 and NBA 2K21 Next Gen.

Best system ever. Sometimes I wish I had the Series X but even now more and more games are getting updated to run at 1080p and be optimized for series S. Blazing fast speed, games running at 60fps like Skyrim which Xbox recently Optimized, tiny and sleek and attractive form factor, this device makes me never want to touch my ps5!! Paired with the external SSD, an external hard drive, and the internal 512Gb storage, storage is never an issue for me. I even purchased the ONI Halo sling on bag to travel with this thing as well. Best system ever and extremely well worth the money for next gen gaming!

The Xbox work’s amazing and hasn’t given me no issues at all exactly purchase.

I have a love hate relationship with this Xbox. It holds many games, doesn't over heat, never has any issues. I absolutely hate that my son plays on it every chance he gets. He would play this for an entire day without breaks if I allowed it. Only problem we have encountered is that after almost 2 years the remote control is having some issues but that was expected

After weeks of searching for it, I was finally able to get one for my son. He loves it. Great images. His old Xbox360 broke down the week before X'Mas so it was the perfect gift.

To preface, I'm very happy with my Series S. It's super small and portable. The SSD is so much faster than the SATA II disk drive in the xbox one x. The new features like quick resume and remote play are awesome. This would have been a five star review IF Microsoft had chosen to give the device more than 370-ish GB of usable storage. Current gen games take up 100-200GB of storage space in some cases. If games remain the same size or become larger the series S will not be future proof. The solution is to buy the wildly overpriced $220 1TB expansion card if you want SSD speeds, or buy a third party external drive and plug in via USB. With the Xbox One X Microsoft used what was at the time 10 year old storage technology. Microsoft just doesn't seem to understand how to properly implement storage into any of their consoles or they are knowingly trying to squeeze more money out of us. As of writing this I've filled up all of the consoles storage and 1TB of external storage. I refuse to purchase Microsoft's external SSD out of principal. The console really is a leap forward, I just don't appreciate when a company makes a conscious decision to do something that is extremely anti consumer.

Love the small footprint of my Xbox Series S. No external power block required because power supply is built-in to the console. Backward compatibility, so plays most old Xbox games too. Fast load times so you can get to gaming right away. 512 Gb Internal storage only good for storing a few games, so need to get external drive for which you will sacrifice slower load times. Excellent upgrade from older Xbox One. But if you want better features and graphical enhancements, get the Xbox Series X.

I grabbed an Xbox series x on release and have been enjoying it. However, my nephew wasnt able to so I grabbed him a console to get him into the next generation. This console doesn't have all the bells and whistles of its bigger brother, but you are getting the next generation perks without the resolution. This is perfect for someone still rocking a 1080p display. Now, it does upscale on a 4k TV and it's marketed as a 1440p machine, but this is really for 1080p displays. I played this on my nephews TV and it looked great. The thing about this new generation is SPEED. The games and worlds load so fast.a great purchase.

Absolutely love it. Great gaming experience and hours of fun!!!

This is an excellent machine for the price. The Xbox Series S combined with Gamepass Ultimate may be the best deal going in gaming right now. If you’re on the fence just know that the price to performance is there. You’re getting a great product. The SSD alone, while not huge, offers such an increase in performance that it makes it worth the upgrade from something like the One X. It may not be as powerful as the Series X, but for someone on a budget, doesn’t have a 4K tv, doesn’t care about 4K, or just simply can’t get there hands on a series X or PS5, you’re making a great choice with the Series S!

This system is great for kids that lose and damage game disk also It helps have a cleaner looking game set up as all it comes with is a hdmi and power cord.

Games load extremely fast unlike the xbox one the quick resume feature is great for people that flip flop between games bringing you straight into the action
