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.

    not as good as the ps5. less powerful than the X but worth the price if you really want to start getting into the gaming world. But i would rather save up for the X or the PS5. The ps5 has more exclusives that you cant play anywhere else.

    Value for money, ONLY FOR RETAIL PRICE OF 299 plus tax. Incredible console for what you are paying. It does feel next gen, but I miss the disk drive. I recommend buying a memory card too. It’s easier to get compared to the series X

    I was lucky to pick this up as a replacement for my Xbox One S. The Setup is really easy. If you have Game Pass, at $299 the Series S is a steal. The quick resume feature is really nice. The only downside is the small internal memory. I hooked up an external HDD, and you can play non X/S enhanced games from it. You can also store games on there and transfer to the internal. It takes about 1 min per 10 GB to transfer. Eventually I'll get and external SSD to increase the transfer speed.
