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 this system.. I already have the series x , but wanted a system in my spare room also. I literally can't tell any difference. It doesn't make any noise unlike the series X. This thing is super quiet and I got it on sale for 250.…cheers to me

    I’ve had it for almost a month and can’t stop playing it. It’s super fast and the graphics are really good. If you only play a few games at time the storage is decent too.

    I wasn’t quite sure I would like no disc console, but I really like. It having to store game discs. My daughter loves playing games as well as myself on this Xbox. We aren’t crazy, hardcore gamers so this may be not great for others but fits perfect for us.

    I was a PlayStation guy. Had been since PlayStation 1-4. But I made the switch to Xbox series S. Best switch ever for me. Very powerful compact gaming unit. I have had it since Christmas 2022. Never an issue.

    Great value next gen gaming console. Don't sleep on this little beast. Paired with Xbox game pass this machine is totally capable and very versatile. If you have the spare budget u definitely recommend the X for twice the storage space and disc reading capability. Overall a great device for anyone interested in gaming.

    The quickness of loading and downloading games or movies, the slimness of the console as well surprised me. The picture quality and frame rate is smooth and really happy with how I do not have a slow frame rate and with modern warfare I can see the finer detail of everything in game.

    This console is well worth the price. It’s runs very smooth and compare to the Xbox one X, there is no comparison. Only downfall is the internal hard drive is not big enough to store a full library of games, but this is not a big issue for me. I got this for the performance and it has been a super purchase for me!

    It is top of the line. I went from xbox one to this, well you can tell a big difference in graphics, and the playing part of the game is nice. You have a big thing like waiting for a game to load, not anymore. This thing loads ark great, it enhances everything. You can buy this and enjoy playing games all night long.

    Wanted a series X, but couldn't find one, so I broke down and purchased this so I could experience "next gen". I am glad I did, its small and compact to put anywhere, graphics are great! Also, it not having a disc drive is a non factor! Great little system, highly recommend!!!!

    Almost perfect. Feels like this is the best XBOX. Simple form, fan exhausts hot air, games load or start or re-start so fast. So easy to transfer my account and get up and playing games, fast. I think I am in love ;) Did I mention the new controller is awesome too?
