Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Series S is a great step up from the XBox One not just because of its more powerful processors, which won’t shine until more games come out that fully utilize them, but because of the near elimination of load times. When you play on this console, you spend most of your time actually playing. Coupled with Microsoft’s Game Pass, this console will keep you entertained for a long time.

Have had for almost 2 years. Still working great. My son loves this Xbox. The only downside is low storage but other than that it is an amazing product.

Small, quiet and plenty powerful enough for the games we play (FIFA and Forza).

came on time, updated me with tracking, and overall was a good service. the console is excellent. i have had no problems and i have been camo grinding bo6.

I purchased my Xbox Series S in September 2023 and have been thoroughly enjoying the experience. The console itself boasts a sleek, minimalist design that seamlessly blends with my entertainment setup, and it feels impressively durable. Performance-wise, the Series S exceeds expectations; games load rapidly, and I've never encountered lag or frame drops, even in graphically intensive scenarios. The game library is quite expansive, offering something for everyone, but my personal favorite has to be FIFA. Navigating the clean and intuitive user interface is a breeze, and additional features like the Xbox Game Pass provide incredible value, granting access to a broad variety of games each month. While the console might be considered pricey by some, the plethora of features and superior performance make it a worthy investment. On the downside, the limited stock availability can be a hurdle for potential buyers. All in all, if you're contemplating a gaming upgrade, the Xbox Series S comes highly recommended, offering a rich and seamless experience that justifies the price tag.

Works great and kids love it. It’s a lot smaller than I thought it would be.

This currently really is the greatest value in gaming. Although I wish it had a bigger SSD you can connect a usb 3.0 drive and store games you want to play later on there. Only concern is when are next gen titles going to cut this console off due to its low specs compared to the X, seems to be inevitable. At that point you can make this a retro console, instructions on YouTube.

I bought this for my boyfriend for Christmas last year and he loved it. He lived out so much that now, one year later, he still plays it every day. This is absolutely the best and most enjoyed gift I've ever given him. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a great game system.

This is actually for me, I was on and off with Xbox. But this time, the digital version is actually pretty good. Controller feels great, Console is clean, no problems, whatsoever. Recommended for people who only like digital or have digital games only. I used to have disc-drive Xbox’s, but I sold them and finally got the chance to get my hands on a Series S. This is just fine for me. Thanks.

Awesome graphics, super fast my son loves it. He actually gave away his ps 4

Dope console. Low storage capacity. Fast. Would recommend

I was very happy to be able to purchase in light of low stock. This is my first all digital platform and I was unsure I would like it, but I do. Game Pass makes for a great playing experience and variety of games. The small profile of the console makes it easy to fit into any setup and the controller, while not vastly different than the previous generation, feels really good in the hand. All in all, I am happy with the Series S and look forward to the ease of access to a growing selection of games.

Best Xbox for best price. System is tiny and more powerful than Xbox one

The Series S is a fantastic little machine for the money Microsoft is asking for. It supports all new releases going forward in this upcoming generation of games (albeit with some minor graphical and performance cutbacks here and there), Xbox One titles, and select 360/OG xbox games via an incredible backwards compatibility program. You can rest assured that when you purchase this machine you'll have one of the most robust libraries of content available on any console bar none. You can also take advantage of Gamepass, a service that really is the closest you can get to the Netflix of games. With all that high praise, why did I give this a 4 star rating instead of 5? Here is where the concessions made in order to deliver a $300 box with built in ray tracing hardware, supports for 120fps output, SSD storage, all while being smaller than the previous generation's slim model come into play. The Series S does not have a disc drive. If you have a physical collection of Xbox One titles you were hoping to carry into the next generation, this is not the box for you. This is an all digital machine through and through. High frame rates come at the cost of lower resolutions. The Series S supports 4k HDR video streaming as well as HDR gaming, but most games forego higher resolutions for stable 60 or even 30 fps experiences in most cases. 120fps is on the plastered on the outside of the retail box, but apart from select multiplayer titles and provided you have a TV that even supports the frame rate, you likely won't be doing much gaming at 120fps. This machine is best played, and perhaps designed to be played, on 1080p screens. Lastly we come to storage. The internal SSD does wonders for the user experience. Menus, boot ups, and loading for optimized games are suitably quick. Problem is despite the packaging stating the console comes with 500GB of storage, the operating system takes up a large chunk of that leaving you with little more than 300GB of useable storage. Microsoft sells SSD expansion cards to alleviate this some, but at the current eye watering price of $220 for and extra 1TB of SSD storage you may be asking yourself, "why not save the money I would spend on the console plus the memory and instead get the Series X for $500 or better yet the PS5 Digital Edition for $400?" That leads to the conclusion and the biggest selling point for the Series S by far, availability. Both Series X & PS5s are expected to be hard to find products till at least 2023 due to the ongoing global chip supply shortage. If you want to play the newest releases, don't mind playing them at lower resolutions and frame rates, if having a fewer number of installed games isn't a huge inconvenience for you, then this could be the perfect console to buy right now and tide you over until availability for the more powerful machines gets better.

Like most everyone else, I have been waiting to to the Series X console, but after over 6 months of waiting and refusing to pay scalpers, I pulled the trigger on this. I originally had the X1X scorpio and I don't really notice any difference in graphics, although I have yet to play a current new gen game, however load times are insanely fast and the true saving grace over the X1X. Still have my eye out for the Series X and will replace this with that. Until then I am happy with this

System works great and easy to use. Kids also love it when they do decide to use it.

great product awsome price to performance and slick design

Amazing console, easy to use interface, excellent bargain

Love it jus wish i had more memory. Other than that this system rocks

Great value, plays all the newer games for less than a Series X or Ps5
