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.

    Love kicking back at the end of the day and playing games with all my buddies. Load times are a thing of the past with this new Xbox. Only thing that is a pain, is the small usable space on the SSD. Easily fixed by an external SSD. Great system. Great price.

    I don't see the need to get to upgrade to the series X if you get this product with a external hard drive, more cost effective and you will have the same gaming experience.

    Incredible loading times and entry level storage capacity, the controller feels good, ad both are very portable and easy to store as the power cable doesn't have the large adapter as older gen consoles.

    It is working like a charm. Slipped it between my two monitors and sometimes I switch between my PC dual display to one monitor. Turn my xbox on to display on my 1080p 240hz monitor and bam! you got the best of both words. Shape and Size is perfect to fit on your desk!

    This console is much smaller than the original Xbox One I previously had, which is what my brother liked about it. It's perfect for him since he only buys digital games and doesn't want to swap out discs every time he wants play a different game.

    Xbox over PlayStation any day. Fast downloads when hooked up to Ethernet. Small storage however so I recommend an SSD as well
