Customer Ratings & Reviews

An excellent console, fast and quality gaming. Only problem is the storage. Why Microsoft thought the discless version should have the least memory is beyond me. Another cash grab for when they release the expanded storage version later this year. (Maybe wait for that? Or just buy the Series X if you can afford that!) The idea of spending an extra 300 bucks on a sea gate internal storage drive is ridiculous in comparison to buying one Series X or even another series S for the same price. The console is fantastic, don’t get me wrong. If you’re only looking to play a few games (less than 400 gb if you’re including the space the base software requires) then it’s a great price compared to the other options. But if you’re playing X/S optimized games and plan on building a collection, maybe wait for something better.

I got it to play sports games and it plays them well. My only regret is that I’ve been too busy to get a lot of mileage out of the system since buying it.

This was difficult to get but Best Buy added the email verification which eliminated the bots! Well done and a great system! Got the no disc version for my two sons with the game pass, more than enough games for them.

I'm not a Microsoft fan AT ALL.. My 360 was so unreliable had to send it in for repairs 8 times. So was very reluctant, but this has been a good experience, even with the tiny HD it's got more than enough room for a wealth of games. OS isn't as nice as a PS5 but it's doable, controllers suck because of needing batteries, but are comfortable. I feel like the visuals on the playstation are brighter more defned, xbox seems darker and bluish regardless of the TV settings -- not entirely sure. Perfect game system for a tween/teen and not a $500 investment. A good buy, reliability wise we shall see.

Best overall gaming console in market these days. Very sleek and durable unit.

I bought two of these for Christmas presents. One for a 15 year old and one for a 7 year old. Both of them love it and the set up was super easy.

Bought this Xbox about a month ago and been playing hardcore games and doesnt even heat up at all

I love the Xbox very fun, fast speeds. Enjoy playing lots of fun games

Very good upgrade from old gen into new gen. Way faster and better.

Got this as a secondary console to my Series X so that I could play my games and stream my movies on another tv in the house. I did not expect to love this system so much. It is very small and sleek so it fits well in any entertainment system. Also Xbox’s instant cloud saves makes going back in forth between systems. Also performance wise it is very sleek and fast. And while Series X is a higher powered unit this definitely holds its own. The biggest drawback is the internal storage, but that is something you can upgrade when you’re ready.

Love the system great graphics easy install would recommend

After getting back into gaming after 10 years my experience setting this up and using it daily was such a breath of fresh air and so easy to do!

Full disclosure: I'm not a serious gamer. I picked this up on a whim (pandemic boredom). I also bought the Microsoft Game Pass. Set-up was pretty easy out the box. Only a few hiccups separating my work Microsoft account from my personal account. Took about an hour for all the updates to complete. Game pass has a nice selection of games. I like being able to play cloud based games. If you're a serious gamer, the storage will probably be an issue. Downloading a graphics heavy game like Forza takes a good chunk of the available memory. I have 5 or 6 games in my library now and I'm already 93% full. I recommend getting a charger/recharging station for the controllers. Replacing batteries gets old pretty fast. My only real gripe is that it was surprisingly difficult to set up our second controller so that my wife and I could play against each other. If you want to play against someone halfway across the world, no problem. Playing against someone sitting with you on your couch, on the other hand, is a lot more difficult. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase and would recommend it.

This was a Christmas present for my son & he loves it. It was quick set up & jumped right in.

Remember those old Xbox commercials from shortly after the original console launched in 2001? Well, the Xbox Series S reaffirms that there really is no power greater than X. Sure, you're not getting an optical drive here, but that doesn't mean that this system isn't anything short of amazing. I've played games on here that I also have on PC and I kid you not, I can't tell the difference between the two versions. If PC gaming isn't your bag or if space is at a premium (or both), then definitely look into getting this beautiful system!

Nice console for basic use. Like the esthetics, looks clean and sleek. Gamepass is a great subscription.

Kids love it. Happy with the purchase. At first they were a little disappointed due to no disc place, then got used to the already downloaded version of the games.

Love it!!! Honestly if you are looking to upgrade and don't want to wait for the X this is a great buy. Yes it lacks storage and disc drive.

Very good entertainment for my son the only bad thing you have to buy a subscription in order to play.

I got this Xbox for my boyfriend for Christmas. Originally we got the Oculus but he shouldn’t find any games that interested him. He loves the Xbox though. His favorite game is Madden, but he’s always yelling at it lol. It was a good price compare to other game systems.
