Customers are saying

Customers commend the Xbox Series S for its affordability, compact size, and impressive performance, especially considering its price point. Many appreciate the ease of use and fast load times, along with the benefits of Xbox Game Pass. However, some users point out limitations in storage capacity and the lack of a disc drive as significant drawbacks. The console's resolution capabilities also receive mixed feedback.

    I am really loving the console and its good for the price. I already bought games digitally so this is a good console for someone on a budget.

    Small and fits perfectly behind my monitor. Just low on storage would recommend getting a ssd for the extra space.

    Purchased as a gift for my brother to play MLB the show on, he loves it! Great way to stay active and involved in baseball even when its too cold to play outside and the season is over.

    As someone who plays games only from time to time, I really enjoy how fast the load times are. This was a great upgrade from the Xbox one. It was a little hard to come by due to Microsoft’s failed launch, but in the end I’m extremely happy.

    Great little Xbox, good for computer monitor (up to 1440p) but don't expect 4k gaming. Quick resume, game boot up and start up are fast. If 4k and memory are a factor then step up and get the Series X.

    How they put so much power in this thing is amazing. Althouugh targeted as a 1440p machine some games may play at a dynamic 4k, a game like Outriders plays surprisingly well at 4k/60 frame rates. Worth every$300 which is crazy good value.

    I love this console. I love the size of it. The hard drive is to small, but it can be replaced by a external hard drive. Games run and load fast. Planing to buy another one.

    It’s amazing for its price point. It has good graphics and FPS. I love the quick resume feature and it loads games up fast. It’s a travel size console and it’s a great console to get if you’re on a budget, but want to get into the next-gen experience.

    This console is the best!! I had a lot of fun playing. Really convenient too because with the game pass, it allows you to play many games that isn’t available on the switch/ps5.

    Absolutely love my Series S. Got this because I couldn't find a Series X, and was pleasantly surprised. Definitely feels next gen compared to my One X. If you know what you are getting when you buy this it will exceed your expectations.

    Great step up from a Xbox One S. Boot and load times are extremely fast, literally night and day from previous generation consoles. Highly recommend the series S if you can't get your hands on a series X.
