Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love the new Xbox... I bought the series S reluctantly as I was not able to get the series X. I won’t go into the feature comparison as that is available at several places. Microsoft has finally got this system right for gamers. The instant resume is amazing. I have verified backward compatibility of games all the way back to 360, but only digital purchases work. I do wish Microsoft would bring back Kinect and some way to access disc! I have several docs through different generations and knew that those discs will not work when purchasing. But the series X if you can get one and have a lot of discs, if not the series S is perfect: small and compact.

Was surprised how compact it was. Works perfect for my gaming style I have 5 games downloaded and it’s almost at capacity so if you are a heavy gamer that plays larger games just get the X

Best console ever its fast runs perfectly and very smooth

Really nice, fast and easy to use. By far the best xbox out there

I have had Xbox consoles since the beginning. As an all-around media center, I bought Series S to replace S. The console is surprisingly small and even though it no longer has optical connection, HDMI connection does the job for audio connection. It still works with the media remote and the visual quality for all streaming services I use is as good as i expected. I am not concerned with storage and lack of disc drive. I feel that this is a perfect console for me as it was available to me when I wanted to buy it and BestBuy manager made it easy for me to purchase when I traded in my Xbox One S.

Awesome deal for the price! I seriously love it, so happy this version of the Xbox exists. It’s great for the casual gamer or anyone looking to give Xbox a try.

You'll be amazed at how tiny this console is. If you want a budget friendly way to get into next-gen or travel a lot for work and like having a console with you, this is the choice to make.

Best Xbox for the price. Only wish it had more storage being that everything is downloaded onto it but for the price it’s an amazing console with amazing graphics

Great step up from the original xbox one. The quality I get is exactly what I needed for a light xbox gamer. The load times are awesome and the way everything moves smoothly is perfect.

Most of us have been waiting for the next gen console to release and i am excited for the new Xbox Series S. Although i wasnt able to get the Series X, i am excited for the upcoming games like Halo, Call of Duty, Gears, NBA 2K, Cyber Punk. The new xbox design is pretty simple and basic. It doesn't look as impressive as the new PS5 but the hardware does get the job done. Graphics look amazing with 4K and you can use your old Xbox one controller. Overall, a great bang for your buck with the Series S if you are invested in digital content.

Best game ever. Not sure why they’re making me type so much, but yea, I like the console a lot.

I love it so far only issue I have is there is not enough storage space but that can be fixed with the storage expansion card but over the system is great game play feels real smooth

Absolutely amazing gaming machine! This is the best route to go with next-gen gaming, if you don't need to use older disks, Blu-ray movies, or don't have a fancy 120Hz 4K TV. My 65" 4k Samsung upscales practically everything - including my games that run at 1440p. I bought a 4TB expandable HDD and now have over 70 games installed, thanks to Game Pass Ultimate. I used to only play PlayStation, since PS1/PS2, but this is some next level stuff - for only $299. Now that Bethesda is owned by Microsoft, there's a lot more to look forward to. I may be getting a Series X, once I upgrade to a 120hz TV, especially if Microsoft offers a good trade-in option

I bought the xbox series s for the grandkids and the love it. All games are in the cloud, no more buying disc, getting them scratched or ruined.

If you are looking for the actual next-gen gaming experience, buy an Xbox Series X. If you are purchasing this for your kids, then it's perfect, but If you are an adult with a 4K TV, go with the XSX; trust me, you will be much better off. I will give Microsoft credit for the design of this console. It's great! However, they say it's made for 1440p gaming, and in my opinion, it is not; it's suitable for 1080p @ 60 FPS. The main issue is that most game developers still do not give many options for adjusting resolution and performance. There are games that this system should be able to run at 1080p @ 60 FPS with no issues, but it's not an option you can select. If game developers start to embrace more of the quality/performance options you get on PC, this system will be a bargain for $299.

This series Xbox is one of the best value for performance I’ve had the pleasure of using that I’ve seen for a while. It’s light, compact and fast with its ssd

Excellent system, especially for living in small spaces, or travelling/extended stays. No need to haul games around, exactly what was needed. (It was a gift for those reasons)

Great entry console to enter "XBOX Ecosystem". The load times are amazing compared to the previous generations. Paired this with game pass ultimate and it's perfect for a casual gamer. My only issue is the hard drive capacity. You get about 300+GB for games. Would definitely recommend adding an SSD for backward compatibility games.

A fantastic new XBOX, with game pass I have hundreds of games to play all for one low price. Easy to set up and play, awesome graphics and controller.

Great buy for a great price. Glad it was in stock since it was sold out pretty much everywhere! This is a great system and definitely an upgrade from my Xbox One
