Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love everything about it, has stuff my PlayStation 5 doesn’t have. You have the game pass, a whole lot of games old and new you can play.

Came fast and the system is great, runs games good but you should consider buying extra storage

This product is fun to use for crossplay with other pc users. Definitely a step up from the x box 1 but less expensive than the series x.

Love The Best game sytem by far. Have had them all.

Thank you Best Buy… why do they even make disks anymore when you can go full digital, my little one would just destroy the disks anyways

Great product for the price if you don't care about the aesthetic of the series x!

This was my son's favorite Christmas gift. He loves the graphics and he has a ton of digital games to choose from with ultimate game pass.

Excellent system that almost runs as smooth my ps5. My kids love it, and it was totally worth the price.

Everything that comes with this game is the best the downloading the graphics everything

First of all let me say, yes half a terabyte but ladies and gents you can get 2 TB heck even 4TB if you shop around for under $120, yes for another $200 if you're lucky enough to find the Series X you could get it, the better console that runs a bit quicker and gives you real 4K content. But If you're a gamer and don't mind 2K at 120FPS this is for you. Plus digital games are the future and load faster and run smoother. I haven't owned an Xbox since the 360 and I almost forgot how fun Halo, Gears of War, and other Xbox exclusives are. Great price with insurance and a 4TB hardrive it was still cheaper then my PS5. Overall the build the quality on a samsung Qled tv just can't get any better. Super happy with Microsoft and the new Series S.

Was worried about the digital one but it has worked out well for our family set up.

Right when I opened it from the box it has a weird funky smell. No, it’s not the “new” smell. It’s like the new smell mixed with the musty smell you’d get from a house full of pets. Is it new? Refurbished? I don’t know, I had to wait almost two weeks for it to arrive so I’m assuming it’s new and the smell is from manufacturing? Other than that gross smell. It’s alright, does exactly what an Xbox is supposed to do; play games. 512GB is pretty limited, but nothing storage expansion won’t fix. The new revision to the controller that launched with the Series X|S is pretty nice and leagues above the old 360 controller I’m coming from. It’s also compact and quiet, has a nice modern look to it that doesn’t go all extreme. The upscaling doesn’t look all that great when compared to native 4K. You can see within the consoles Home Screen/menus options isn’t as sharp (yes, I know it’s target resolution is 1440p, but it does have the option to select 4K in the settings and no, I’m not using a cheap TV I have it hooked up to a LG CX). I intended to use this strictly for Game Pass so those short comings don’t bother me, except that weird smell. Makes you just wanna vomit, anyway, if you are bothered with the Series S’s shortcomings and want something more you are better off getting the Series X.

Good all around console perfect for grown ups and kids that either are starters or casuals.

I love Xbox my favorite console my hubby has the one x and I just wanted something for me and this was perfect

I was skeptical on getting a next-gen digital console, but this one has been rock solid thus far with no issues. If only the PS5 digital was this small of a form factor I would have got both. No complaints here.

I was wanting the series X but, was only able to obtain the series S. I was a little bummed at first because I really wanted the X. But, I’ve really grown to love the S, it’s a little powerhouse in it’s own right. It has the quick resume which I love and the optimized games look great! After spending time with this system, I’m now really in no hurry to get the X. But, I will eventually upgrade when they become more available. So, if you’re looking to experience next gen now? You really can’t go wrong with this. The only downside to this system is it’s a digital only system. Which you’ll definitely need external memory if you choose to go this route.

This is a pretty cheap way to get into next gen gaming. The Series S is built very solidly. I expected it to be larger, but was pretty surprised at how compact it was. Setup was easy, and the initial console update didn't take that much time. If you have this + gamepass, you're pretty much set. The only downside with this console, is that the internal storage is pretty limited (you are not getting all of the 512gb, some space is reserved for the system). So you will either have to rotate the games you have on the Series S, or invest in an external HDD (either a regular one, or buy the very very very expensive Seagate expansion card). This system is perfect for those who don't buy physical media, and who are new to the Xbox ecosystem.

I really like this console. You get a lot for only $300. Quick Resume is a great feature, although it doesn't always work and some games don't support it. Like previous Xbox consoles, the controllers use double-A batteries which is good in that you can always replace the batteries unlike Playstation controllers. Also, the amount of old Xbox games available on the online store thanks to backwards compatibility is arguably the strongest selling point of Microsoft's platform. My biggest complaint is the lack of internal storage and the fact you have to pay $219 to buy one specific memory card in order to upgrade, whereas PS5 gives you options.

Very happy with this purchase, it cant be beat for the price. If you're okay with it not being a powerful a the series x this is a great but

Best decision i made in buy a game console i will be back soon
