Great little console that packs power
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little console that packs a lot of power. For my use, it was definitely worth it over the X. Only issue I have is the storage. For somebody that is going to be playing a lot of bigger Triple-A titles, I would recommend getting the X or some type of storage expansion. I don't even game that much and already went through 99% of my storage.

Best bang for the buck!!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first Xbox. So far, I enjoy every minute that I spend playing games on the Xbox system. I was trying to buy the one x but now I changed my mind. I prefer 1 s because it’s less expensive, not so big, and considering the price point, the difference in specs between the one x and s is insignificant.

Awesome gaming machine at a great price
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picked one up after Christmas and on sale. Work great with impressive audio and video. Very easy to set up and I was using it in no time at all. Got the Ultimate Game Pass to go with it. I wish additional storage was cheaper but that's my only gripe.

If you want an XBOX now
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got the S, due to limited availability of the X. Higher resolution doesn't make that much of a difference, smaller size is more portable, but I would have liked the option of connecting a USB DVD, which you can't. Also forces you to buy the games from a single source. All things I knew when I bought it.

Worth it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing speed and graphics but only enough room for 2-4 games to be installed and ready to play at a time depending on how many GB each game is.

Posted .Hey Ben,
We're glad that you're enjoying your new Xbox Series S. If you're running low on storage, you have a couple of options. The best solution is to invest in the Seagate SSD 1TB Expansion Card for Xbox Series X/S, which will add 1TB of SSD storage to your console. For more information, go here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/seagate-storage-expansion-card-for-xbox-series-xs-1tb-solid-state-drive-nvme-expansion-ssd-for-xbox-series-xs/6425015.p?skuId=6425015
Another solution is to add a standard external hard drive, which can be used to store and play Xbox 360 and Xbox One games that have not been enhanced for Xbox Series X/S.
We hope you have a lot of fun with your Xbox.
Happy gaming,
Chuck

This is a little but wonderful beast!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best purchase you could ever have if your lifestyle is to get some spare time after work and weekends ! Performance is excellent , quick resume , the only thing I’d suggest would be to get an SSD or external HardDrive to store more games since is only 512GB. The rest is amazing!

It's Awesome
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product is amazing the only drawback I've found is Rockstar requires you to repurchase gta v on the series consoles as for the system it's self I love it most games load in less than ten seconds it's incredibly compact and I love the expansion options too in short buy this system

Perfect device for a traveling professional
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly this thing is great and is probably a better fit for lost than a series X. The only reason I returned this thing is because I already have the X and a Ps5. This thing is great though. Looks great on a 2k monitor and it’s so compact. Great for a traveling professional. Highly recommend this thing!

Great price for next gen. Also very portable!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased series S for my kids and they love it. It also makes a nice compact next gen system to take with you when traveling. My main consoles now are Series X and PS5 digital but for the price its a must for anyone looking to get into next gen. Hard drive space is limited so would need to do a lot of transferring or pick up expansion card.

Great little Xbox
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a Series X at my place, but I decided to get another machine to keep somewhere else. This is the perfect size and it performs surprisingly well compared to the Series X.

good xbox just some minor issues
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.i love this xbox but i’ve had some problems with it early on while getting it. it’s mostly just the xbox program itself like the menu buttons sometimes just don’t work (not on the controller i mean like the digital menu). it’s fixable with a refresh home button sometimes but just has some weird issues every now and then. also xbox game pass ultimate is so expensive and one time they charged me even when i didn’t authorize ❤️. i still love the xbox itself tho

Lots or pros, one BIG con
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the system for about 2 months at the time of me writing this review so the pros: no load times, a ton of games (if you have gamepass), easy interface, easy setup. cons:it runs really hot I first saw speculation about it when they first dropped back in November and thought it was bs turns out no it actually runs hot especially in comparison to the ps5 that runs way cooler ,now idk if that’s a space issue or what but it’s quite concerning being it’s hot no matter if your standing it up or on it’s side I wish Microsoft would address this issue.

Posted .Hey there,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feedback on your new Xbox Series S. If you're experiencing an issue with overheating, we recommend placing your console in a well-ventilated spot with 2-4 inches of clearance around it and to make sure its vents are unobstructed.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.i love it! i love how small it is, i can connect it to my monitor or the living room tv without a hassle. fast downloads. silent weapon forsure, doesn’t sound like the ps4’s jet engine. the graphics are amazing! not 4k but still HD. i’d definitely purchase again- maybe to keep one at the girlfriends house. 5stars!

Powerful console in a tiny package. Love it!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unexpectedly powerful for such as small box. We bought this as the "2nd Xbox" for the bedroom and I wasn't expecting much. However I've been able to play Assassin's Creed Valhalla at 60 fps after the latest update and it's incredible. The graphics clearly aren't as crisp as the Series X, but for the price the Series S offers great value.

Amazing console, the perfect gift
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing. Load times are phenomenal and I can't get enough of the graphics. Have the series X and it's just as good. Just wish Xbox still allowed users to stream YouTube while gaming now that next gen is capable of so much

Runs Fast, Storage too low
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Next Gen is the way to go if you are trying to play the new games. Everything runs exceptionally faster than previously. Only problem is storage. You can fit probably only 3 games in the Xbox and you can’t use any external hard drive storage to store more X|S specific games. I wish I knew this before because you essentially have to purchase their internal storage expansion card which is already at least another $200 which at that point it would be better to just get the Series X.
