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.

    I haven’t upgraded my Xbox system since the original Xbox One released and this Series S did not disappoint. I personally don’t need much storage so for me the 512 GB was okay. I travel a lot and the weight of this system and portability is what sold me. Of course if you end up needed more space for more games XBox already has a card out for that so it’s nice knowing I have options down the line.

    So worth the 300 dollar price tag!

    This Xbox is perfect and doesn’t take up too much space it runs so well for its small size and it being digital minimizes the clutter with disks and more it is so convenient having all my games in my library rather than taking up space around the house.

    Always with a fan of Xbox now that I got the next gen I am very pleased how well it performs how fast everything is the load time is cut right down I can get right into my games if I pause it go right into another game play that going to the other game it's well worth it downside there's no disc drive but I don't care I get all the games I want online well worth the price

    Found the last one they had in store and was glad! Definitely prefer this over PS. Only issue is while on multiplayer, the xbox heats up, and has issues keeping cool so the game will freeze. Its happened with all 3 Xbox series S's weve had in the house, and theyve all came from different places, so its not Best Buys issue. More of a manufacturer issue.

    I'm a physical gamer that still likes disc, but this with Game Pass is an excellent investment. My only strike is the storage size. You download a big game or two and it your pretty much eating up the majority of the storage. An external storage device is pretty necessary.

    Bought it for my son. He loves it great fun only issue he has had is with the space. We ended up also getting him an expansion hard drive because he could only have 3-4 games with the 512.
