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.

    Works well. A bit better than the Xbox one S. There is real value in the Game Pass from MS with the new console as the upgraded game versions are already available.

    The easiest next generation console, this console does some games at 2K (1440p) with up to 120 frames per second. It looks amazing on a 1440p monitor with VSynk.
