Amazing value for a 'budget system". Games load fast and look great at 1440p. I am mainly a PlayStation user but this console is perfect for when I feel like downloading Xbox games and more on gamepass!

Runs fast, and hasn't given any issues with installation. No Disc Drive obviously, but you get use to just downloading games. I do recommend getting the additional hard drive for more game storage.

Great powerful console.The small size allows to fit it anywhere, and it runs so great.There are practically no loading times. It is a great machine to take advantage of an xbox gamepass subscription .

It’s a good system, I love it no problem with playing the Xbox. The graphics good, and the system runs smooth

Very fast if you are playing on a xbox one S or older I would strongly recommend upgrading to this! Price is great for the graphics and speeds that you get!

Works as it should.. my 10yr olds first Xbox. He plays with me and his older brothers now. Wish it had more storage but it’s fine

Glad Best Buy was able to offer me the opportunity to purchase this. It’s worth. 299 it’s a great value but is definitely not a great as the series x for me because there’s no disc drive unfortunately.

A perfect choice for those who don't need physical copies of games. Graphics and speed are great. Recommend you purchase an external hard drive, though because of the smaller SSD.

This console is able to play all the same games as the Series X, just at a lower framerate and/or resolution. The only thing that I didn't like is the internal storage is only 500GB and only about 350 is usable... for an all digital console, it really needed to have 1TB of storage.

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!

Only downside is that, if you like a variety of games like me, you wuickly run out of storage space. Apart from that, its perfect!

I LOVE THIS CONSOLE IT’S FAST FOR CHEAP! It’s very cheap for how amazing the console is and very fast. The low storage no problem too.

Definitely worth the wait! My son has been complaining about his graphics on his old xbox. Hes completed in love with the beauty of this one. Its Nice and compact too!! :D

It's almost amazing that the Series S retails for $300. Its small size is also a huge plus. I'm content to play digital games for now, so the lack of a disc drive is not a problem for me.

This is not the unit we I was looking to buy, it was the Xbox x version but had no choice but to gave up trying to find one! That said, this unit is fine for the price and can do the job

So far so good. I'll start by saying I'm not the Xbox fanboy. I went for both systems but couldn't snag a PS5 but was able to get the series X and S on the first drop. Now for the series S, the console has been running very smoothly and is quiet. I've seen a noticeable difference in download speed which is a nice improvement. As for the temperature, I have noticed a fair amount of heat being put off after running for an hour on the same game as the series x model which isnt the best. It feels a bit like a small infrared heater. I did check the temperature of the series S model after an hour of 2k and it read out around 113 degrees fahrenheit. Overall the series x and the S are built very well.

it runs pretty well on my 120hz monitor, runs fortnite, modern warfare, and rocket league smoothly (better than some gaming laptops!), and fits in a backpack for easy carry!

The Microsoft Xbox Series S is a fantastic gaming system upgrade that continues the legacy of excellence established more than two decades ago with the first Xbox. The console is sized and shaped to fit unobtrusively within an average user's entertainment ecosystem, and the controllers are ergonomic and easy to use.

Very compact and light weight, easy to transport and move. Could use some extra storage but that’s nothing an external hard drive can’t fix.

Love the digital version. Most of my collection is digital, so I didn't mind getting this one. Games look amazing on it. Cyberpunk plays great on it. Loads times are super fast. Not disappointed.
