    You can’t beat the XBOX S for value. When paired with the XBOX Game Pass, you’ll have a whole library of games right out of the box.

    Amazing machine for a great price comparatively to the other consoles available. I would recommend this to anyone who is into gaming or looking to get back in after a break. The employees were very helpful and friendly in recommending this console and couldn’t be more happy with my purchase!

    I got exactly what I wanted from Best Buy: an Xbox Series S, very quickly and easy. Pickup was hassle-free, and the console works spectacularly. I bought it to play Mortal Kombat 1, Starfield, and a few other games, and it does so flawlessly. My only "complaint" would be the storage space, but since that's on the product label, you know what you're getting into, and it can be easily fixed by buying an external hard drive.

    It was a great XMAS gift for a friend. He hadn't upgraded to any NEXTGen console, this was a nice priced half way entrance for him.

    I can’t get my hands on a Xbox series X at retail price and I needed to upgrade my old Xbox One. I set my expectations low because I figured for $299 there’s no way this console can be that much better. I could not be more wrong!! The way the graphics look, and how quickly games load and handle are amazing. The gamepass also makes Xbox a great buy!! 10/10 would buy again. I will gladly get the series X at retail when they get the inventory, but this is more than good for me!! Also reccommend getting the seagate expansion card because that’s my only complaint is storage… these games are way too big for the storage the console comes with.

    Best decision of my life! This is because I'm upgrading from an OG xbox one. There isnt much space, so consider that when buying. No disc drive. If you download many games, or want the best graphics then I suggest the Xbox series x. A external drive can be used to store games, but all X/S games need to be install in the main drive to play. Games: I'm playing on my LG 4K TV, which supports 4k at 60 fps. Elden Ring with this tv graphic setting is great. When playing Apex Legends, I need to adjust TV settings to 1080p 120fps and the game looks great!

    This product is very good. The packaging was well done and there was nothing missing; it was a great budget version of the Series X. Very fun to play with and very nice games. An overall good job.

    This series s is nothing short of amazing what it offers for the price. A very small sleek well made powerhouse of a console for only $299, You will have a hard time noticing any difference in graphics or gameplay between this series s compared to the series x or PlayStation 5. I own all three and I’m telling you if this is the only console you own your good. If you have a 4K tv it will upscale games to 4K as well. The console being all digital is not a problem for me as most disc games make you download huge files before even play anyway. And with gamepass you get so many free games to play you be busy a long time. Grab this console it will surprise you.
