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.

    This is a great way to get into the next generation of gaming. The system is great if you have another next gen system or letting the kids play. The amount of space is limited but it makes up for it with its performance. If you are a hard core gamer then this is not the system for you.

    Looked up thhe specs after my purchase and found out this was the same power as the Xbox One X (which i have) was slightly disapointed til I loaded up a game and then saw how fast this thing processed the games. HOLY CRAP! Cyberpunk would take 30-50 secs or more to load and this takes about 5-10. The added ability to play the next generation of games is great too! Considering the Xbox Series X is currently going for $500-600 over the retail value this is a great way to take the first step into the next gen without breaking your wallet.

    A nice speedy upgrade from last gen. If you have a great Oled tv, go for the Series X. Otherwise this works well for the rest.

    Its truly revolutionary. Dont be afraid of losing the disc player. Step into the world without dvds discs and piles of nonsense plastic cases. Love the sleek look and compact size. Why this isnt the hotest selling item . I dont know. I guess trendiness is cool. Well i am playing the new games on a new system for 299 not 399 and love the smoothness of its operation. Step up to a nice oled or qled tv with it and enjoy the full beauty of gaming . Great little system. I think ps5 is sooo ugly. But what do i know.

    My og xbox one was slowing down so I picked this system up. Mostly because series X wasnt available. I do enjoy this S though because its much faster than my og.. Only downside I notice is of course the storage space. Both my external hds work seemlessly.

    Very nice console if you aren’t really too keen on playing on a true 4K TV or monitor & do not play a lot of games...key word, not a lot of games, as this console only has 512 GB of internal storage. I only play NBA 2k and Call of Duty and it is perfect. I play on a 1440P monitor and it is beautiful and crisp. Only thing I do recommend is buying the storage expansion card because you will eventually run out of storage if you play more games than I do. I bought the expansion card just to be safe. Overall, very satisfied with the Xbox Series S next generation console.
