An amazing next gen console
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded my cousin’s original xbox one as a gift. Works 100x better than the model from a decade ago, he loves it. The only downside is amount of storage, so I recommend an external hard drive, like the black box.

Great deal!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you’re looking for convenient next generation gaming, or not willing to shelf out big money just yet, this is it for you. Depending on how many games you play, you should consider getting the expansion card, but overall it is a great console. Very convenient with sizing and pleasant to the eye. Would recommend to anyone.

Decent Console.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little console is very different. I did like it and didn't at the same time. It does run super quiet and stays cool. It just depends on what you want it for. If you're expecting 4K at high FPS, this is not the model you want. This is a digital only console which I already knew but I was hoping for just a tad more storage. When its all said and done, you only get a little over 300gb of storage which just isn't enough. This console with run most games at 1440p at 60fps. It is just a matter of what you want it for.

I love it
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this Xbox, it being a lot smaller than the Series x was perfect for me since I don’t have much space and the price for it was great I’d recommend it if you want a solid gaming experience

New Xbox Rox..!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this new console. Fast, sleek, and only occupies a tiny space. Been playing Destiny 2 heavily on it lately. It’s fabulous to see the graphic upgrades,and the additional field of view options this new console makes possible very happy with this purchase! Would definitely recommend an upgrade to anyone still on the fence..

New Xbox = Happy Family :)
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Husband and kids love it!! So much better than the old Xbox one! Speed, graphics, etc all a huge step up. I wasn’t real sure about the digital version it that’s all that was available so we went with it. No problems so far. Will likely upgrade to a some extra storage space soon, but we’re getting by without it for now.

Great as secondary console
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love games in general, for this generation of consoles I managed to obtain a PS5 a while back. I will probably be buying the series X once they become more available but this series S is great as my secondary console until then. It takes little space and is powerful enough, highly recommended.

Good and affordable but not good on download space
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The system its self is very impressive but if your looking for memory space i would recommend getting the xbox X due to having such low memory space it gets frustrating when you want to downloaded a new game of corse there other option like getting a memory card attchment but at that point might as well get the Xbox X this system is best for digital games and if you only really play one or two games the low memory space is really the only issue i have with it if you dont have much money to spend on a system this one is nice and affordable truly is a little brother of the series x

Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unless you’re planning on buying a new TV in the next 2 years as well as the series X, this console packs a punch. It runs brilliantly compared to the day one Xbox One. Worth the savings and digital only aspect for someone on a budget. This will upscale to 4K and looks wonderful but only on a true 4K TV or monitor.

Good deal
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are deals going around from time to time for this XBOX S series. It is quite a cool one even compared with the mighty black edition. Easy to connect and easy to operate. 512 GB should be enough fir most games but there is also a 1TB version available. S series are pretty affordable and worth buying.

Amazing little console
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little console for the price. For 299 you get a lot of game. This is a hard to beat console for the price. The only thing would be the storage. It’s half the storage as the series x but for my personal use I have not had a problem with it. If anyone else does you can purchase extra storage for it.

Great for everyone with all digital games
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works great. No issues with any game so far. I don't have a $2,000 latest tech 65 inch big screen, but it looks great on my 55 inch Samsung. Loads fast, runs fast. I have game pass, so I'm not too worried about storage, but I'd like to see more storage options soon. Reasonably priced storage options. The only downside is the learning curve on some of the navigation and on how to play coop games. It's not obvious how to do splitscreen on fortnite or rocket league for example. I had to search on the internet to figure it out. Haven't had a console since the original xbox, however. My kids are young, still a few years from being teenagers, so they really don't care we didn't get the series x. They just want to play some games! Me too! Your kids probably won't care either. If they do... start teaching more humility! Ha! With game pass and 3 people in my house playing it....i might buy the series x next year to keep us from arguing over who gets to play what and when! Not disappointed with this purchase. I would do again.

Xbox lover
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly, was looking for the series X and settled with the series s due to availability. I don’t regret my purchase one but. Sure memory is only 500gb but getting a terabyte card is easy and cheap and this Xbox is worth every penny. High speed, great loading times, and beautiful pictures

Posted .Hi Jose,
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

Powerful little machine
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a good system and delivers as promised but upgrading from an Xbox One X didn't really change my gaming experience that much. Don't get me wrong the graphics are awesome and some of my digital games get a nice boost but playing on a 4K tv I'm not really seeing a huge difference from my Xbox One X. I think if I had upgraded from the Original Xbox One this would have been more worth the purchase. I gave it 4 stars because the storage is garbage! especially for Tripple A title games. Also, I'm not a big fan of the priraratory expansion.

Posted .Hey there,
Thanks for sharing your experience and feedback on your new Xbox Series S. If you need more storage and don't want to invest in the Seagate Storage Expansion Card, you can also connect a standard external hard drive. While you can't play games enhanced for Xbox Series X/S from an external hard drive, you can play Xbox games that have not been enhanced. For a full list of optimized games, please go here: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/optimized
Hope that helps,

Very nice gaming console
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent in between next gen console, i don't play a lot so this works great for me and saved me over 200 dollars. So far the graphics are really good and the quick resume is very nice to have. Only small drawback would be the low storage space but you can always get an external hard drive to fix the problem.

Great System!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Xbox S is amazing at $300. I have bought all my games digitally since xbox 360 so I don't really have a use for a drive anyway. I plan on getting a nice 1440 monitor for my pc so this will work great with it. I don't plan on splurging for a 4k monitor or tv anytime soon but if I ever do, that's when I'll get an x.
