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.

    Good console to buy, I prefer digital due to you giving more space instead of using your cd's or worrying about them to get scratched up. Also the console is small so a lot more space.

    Solid next gen console for a great price! Know what you’re getting before buying. Great as a secondary console or the gamer who’s not ready to totally dive into all that next gen gaming has to offer.

    I like it’s a space saver, I would have preferred not to have repurchase all of the physical copies, but it’s the world we live in I guess. Still gonna give it five stars.

    Got this for my fiance for Christmas. He absolutely loves it. Plays CoD very well, and you can tell that the hardware has been updated. It's like going from a family sedan to a high power roadster.

    The Xbox Series S, is a next-generation console, I recommend it since you can link it with gamepass and play everything you imagine. It has an accessible price and has great capacities.

    Perfect size. Picture is great. Minus the fact that it is disc free, and on this console requires games to be in the internal storage. I keep having to move games from my external hard drive to my internal storage is pretty inconvenient

    Very happy with the Xbox Series S. I wanted the Series X but it was sold out. Needless to say that the Series S performs amazingly and I am not sure how much better the Series X can be.
