This was a birthday present for my fiancé and he yelled out of surprise and excitement and then he teared up quite a bit. The console came in excellent condition and we had it set up and going within minutes. It’s difficult to get any time on it myself because of how thoroughly he loves this console. Amazing purchase well worth the money. I would recommend buying new, the horror stories about buying used ones are awful and not worth the risk to save not much money. (We don’t have a ton of disposable income but I guarantee that it will be less expensive and time consuming to just buy new, Walmart had the best price at the time of my ordering). So very very satisfied!

Very nice looking box. I haven't actually opened it yet it's been about 2wks. I'm prob going to open in 2 days since nobody wants to buy it for $425 off me. Only thing I hate is buying overpriced digital games from Microsoft. Physical copy of Yakuza like a dragon $35 for Xbox... digital copy $60. If I buy 10 digital games I prob overpay by $200 so might as well buy series X. Ok fine I'm gonna return it to Walmart by typing this review I talked myself outta keeping it

its just an amazing console i've now had it for about 2 months honestly i like gaming on a lower resolution so i get more fps so im not mad that is 1440p it has pretty fast loading speeds my only problem with it is there is now disc drive so cant play my ol xbox 360 games other than that its a 10/10 and for $300 its worth it

I understand that it says console only but it would be great to add the power cords and the basics you need to operate it in the box I was disappointed when I opened the box to just see the system looking back at me I had switched from PlayStation to this console and was disappointed that it didn’t have a controller luckily I had a power cord to fit it but pls add these necessities to the box for future consumers

Got it for my husband for Christmas. Was supposed to be a newer version than the one he had. His old one works better. This one constantly disconnects from the WiFi for no reason and has a hard time reconnecting. Everything else In the house will be running on the WiFi just perfectly fine. No issues. The Xbox lags constantly when the WiFi has full signal. Wouldn’t recommend this Xbox to anyone. Apparently has hardware issues.

I upgraded from an original Xbox One and this has far exceeded my expectations! If you’re looking for next gen and don’t want to spend big $$ on an Xbox Series X then this is your answer. The only downside would be the storage but that shouldn’t hold you back on this console.

It's a great system, and I definitely recommend it. I would have preferred to get a Series X, but trying to find one of those in stock without paying $800-$1K right now is incredibly difficult. My only gripe with the Series S is the low storage capacity and the fact that it doesn't come with rechargeable batteries for the controllers (but I suspect the X doesn't come with rechargeable batteries either). If you want to upgrade the storage with the "recommended" expansion card, you're looking to drop another $200 easy. Still a great system to get if you can't get your hands on the X right now though.

Go back to the original box one Im thinking I promise you the original series did not have the early staged problems Ive owned the series s for less than a week now and havent been able to get a full 3 hours of game time cause it either freezes looses audio so my question is after youve done everything the Xbox support copy and pasted then what do you do next hook up your old Xbox from 2013 you never froze or lost audio Xbox is pathetic for this I hate to say it and this is a known problem in the series s and x so from one consumer to another save up for a ps5 or pc cause Xbox is just not it this year its kinda annoying how an Xbox thats 8 years old does better with less equipment but then I buy this quote on quote great series s and it gives me more problems with my console then I had in the last 8 years so its very frustrating and honestly I would take a full refund

This little box packs a ton of power. The xbox series s does everything the series x does but at 1440p instead of 4k. The load times with the internal ssd are absolutely insane. You can power on the xbox and be playing the game exactly where you left off in six seconds. If you don’t need or care about 4k then this is the box for you. If you want a companion console for your ps5 then this is the box for you. Get gamepass and get access to 200 games. All first party games are included in gamepass day one. My only complaint is the size of the ssd, but with the speed it has transferring back forth from external hdds is lightning fast. All in all, this is a fantastic, tiny console that performs better than the pc I built last year and only costs $300.

I have bought from seller before and everything was good the product worked and I had no issues. However I purchased this last min Xbox from seller for a Christmas gift and the AUDIO didn't not work at all. Hooked it up to different TV's, smart and non Smart and nothing. Double checked the sound settings
