Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the absolute best bang for your buck system ever made. If you don't have a TV that can utilize the PS5 or the Series X you are just waiting your money. The only con is the small size of the internal storage. But ask yourself... How many games are you actually playing at one time? The 360 gb of free space (after formatting and system data) can fit a few games and an external ssd can hold the rest.

Love the next gen technology and console. The price is reasonable too

Great power. Tiny package. Very small storage size. 512GB for a digital only console is a bit rough, especially considering the OS size.

Coming out of the PS4/Xbox One generation, I had initially resolved to not pick up Microsoft's newest console. However, the availability of backwards compatibility on Xbox, as the lower price point of the Series S, eventually persuaded me to pick this up as a desktop console. For my purposes, this console is perfect. PlayStation will continue to be my primary console, but I am glad I got the Series S.

Once I got a Series X I kicked my old main the One X upstairs to my bedroom. Didn't take long to notice how cpu and transfer rate limited it is when compared to the new generation. So I picked up a Series S to "replicate" the Series X experience in my bedroom. Series S absolutely does the trick, gaming at my entertainment system or my bedroom feels the same which was what the Series S was designed to do, fantastic little device.

Awsome gaming system love it! New white system looks amazing with my set up.

My son loves this thing. It was incredibly difficult to buy as a Christmas present and Best buy was the only company that really addressed the bots hoarding and reselling quantities. I really appreciate that and came back for other purchases that I would have made elsewhere. The series S itself is an amazing piece of technology. Just make sure you are OK with digital games only (which is the current trend anyway).

I bought this for my nephews and they love it. Newest console in the Xbox family.

I mean i runs new games but they dont look nor run that good but overall its worth the price

Switching from my old console to the new one was super simple. All the games in my library optimized for the X/S downloaded in the optimized format automatically. The lack of a disk drive gets in the way sometimes, but only because I have some games in hard copy vs digital.

At first my choice was to go for the series X or the ps5 but I needed up purchasing this item and it has been the best purchase ever. You can play in the cloud whenever you want without having to download the games (not ever game is like this but majority are). Which means you’ll have more space on your console. I don’t regret purchasing an Xbox console

Great value, easy set up and operation right out of the box.

Bought a Wireless Headset the same day. So far both products are working great.

Best bang for the buck this is an amazing next gen budget console. This system with game pass is a no brainer. Small is downplaying this console. It’s freakin tiny & dead quiet. This is the perfect smart box for 300$. Play games. Stream movies. Take it anywhere with you. The speed alone loading & playing games is worth the price of admission. If you have a PlayStation & or switch, this is a great addition to the family.

This new Series S exceeded my expectations about its performance, etc. I'm coming from a One S and it's night and day difference. I love that it looks good, it loads games almost instantaneously with "Quick Resume" and the experience from better graphics, load times and smoothness is worth more than the $299 price. I'm quite pleased with my purchase. I do feel to constraint with its measly storage but I get around that.

It took a couple hours to set up because of server problems and the controller joystick messed up (drifting). Overall it's good for the price but I do miss my playstation

Exactly what you need for a casual gaming experience. Still a solid product with impressive graphics and fast loads. No CD drive, but not needed in todays gaming world. Everything is downloaded to the console. Decent storage space for plenty of games. Heavy gamers will need a larger size storage or memory expansion.

This is a streaming Xbox. Streaming is the future. As long as you have high speed internet you are good to go.

Easy to set up and access games from previous system using external harddrive

Everyone says that this is not a good buy but I disagree. I love my series S. With series X so hard to come but I could myself getting this and boy was I surprised by how well this thing is. Not as powerful as the X but it packs a punch. Great for anyone who has game pass and likes to buy digital games the one knock on it is the storage I think Xbox could have done a better job in that department.
