Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Xbox Series S is a great addition to the Xbox ecosystem. Super fast in general and small to fit any desk setup. Not to mention Xbox Game Pass is one of the best subscription services out there!

Don't let people tell you otherwise, this is an amazing little piece of hardware. I already had a Xbox Series X and I wanted to add this one to my upstairs loft and it does not disappoint. Fast load times, 1440p resolution and 60fps are all possible with this console. I have my older games on an external drive so there is plenty of storage. For games that take advantage of the advanced features this console is capable of, I have installed on the internal storage. I already have the Segate 1TB expansion for my Series X and if there is a game I want to play upstairs, I simply plug it in to the Series S and away I go. The value to cost makes this console a must have!

Excellent if you have unlimited internet plan and can redownload whatever games you want to play at the moment since the hard drive is small, but it’s fast, and looks decent, however I’d recommend the series X instead and the 1tb expandable memory.

Very compact great for kids. Perfect traveler console fits easily in backpacks. Discless so dont have to worry about kids scratching disc. There is also a company out there that sales a attachable monitor called (xscreen) for the series S.

This is well worth the money. A lot of earlier reviews said just wait and buy a series x, but I don’t agree. Graphics are great and it’s perfect as a Games Pass machine. Still prefer PS5, but this was only $300. Definitely worth purchasing

If you're looking for a new console and don't care for 4K, don't care about a disc drive if you play your games digitally, and don't want to pay an extra $200 for the Series X, then get the Series S! The downside is there's only 364GB of useable storage out of a 512GB that it comes with so it's recommended to get an expansion card with the console but it runs faster and smoother than the Xbox One at least.

Bought this instead of the other one in the Xbox Series, because the other one was out of stock. But I am not disappointed with this purchase. It is conveniently small and portable with fast speeds compared to my old Xbox One.

Waited a long time for a series X to be available through Best buy but settled instead for the series S. Graphics and game play are definitely improved on the One but also falls short of the X. Storage fills up quite fast with the size of games and updates, to help this you need an additional ssd which brings th total cost in line with an X. Mostly happy with purchase, wish X had been available instead though.

Really great console. Way faster than a last gen console. Better graphics,speed,and capabilities. Took me a few months to find one but finally did on the best buy website. Was worth the hunt. I would definitely suggest not skipping this console.

Excellent product functionality and consistency is top tier

This is a nice upgrade from my original Nintendo. Too bad I can’t play Mario on it. I guess I’ll never be able to save the queen since she’s always in another castle. The graphics are great! Way better than the boxy Nintendo graphics. I downloaded Microsoft Flight Simulator and I am amazed by how it’s like you are really flying. I get so carried away that I fly for hours. It makes for an upset wife when I tell her I can’t do chores. You know you take take off in a plane on a scheduled 2 hr flight and stop the flight early. You have to land that bad boy. And boy did I grease the landing when I did. The landing was a 9/10. Anyhow this is a great console. Great apps and great games.

Great Console, very good purchase and would totally recommend to friends. Works great after a month of use, and was easy to pick up. Terrible storage though, might want to get a hard drive such as a segate to make your storage better :)

I like this little thing alot. It's tiny but gets the job done, the memory could be better but the game pass is always amazing

My first consle for next generation, bought it black friday and they had one for everybody. Great console. Easy use and great graphic. Cant hate it for only 300

Great price for an amazing console. Only downsides are no disc drive and small storage drive

Compact well built unit....SSD memory a little limited at 512GB but you can expand memory further with memory expansion accessories. Happy with purchase overall, just remember there is no DVD loading slot on series S model

Perfect for on the road gaming. Travel for work and this unit is small enough i dont even notice it in the truck. Buy an extra memory card and it holds all your favorite games!

Great console! Cuts down on clutter with everything being digital download. Just wish the standard console came with higher storage.

I really like the size of this console and how fast everything loads. If not for the SSD that is WAY too small and the inability to use true 4k @ 120hz I would give it 5 stars. Since you cannot (currently) use an external SSD that isn't the $220 proprietary accessory Microsoft has to install new games on, the 512 SSD is extremely limiting. I was able to install 4 AAA games and had 3% left in space. In the short time I've had the console, its already become a problem for me. I recommend the series x for the extra space, but even 1TB seems too small for the amount of games that are 100gb or more.

Pro: Small and affordable Can play all the same games as the Xbox Series X Blazing fast load times, thanks to SSD Strong backward compatibility, including accessories Cons: Not as powerful as the Xbox Series X Half the storage space as the Xbox Series X No optical drive
