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.

    Next Gen Gaming at an accessible price point

    Next Gen Gaming comes at an accessible price point. If you're willing to sacrifice a disk drive, this is recommended. Although, beware that you will only get about 380 GB out of the box to use for games and apps, meaning that Microsoft's $220 expansion card is basically a must have. If you can get a series x, get it. Otherwise this is a great alternative.

    Props to Microsoft. They blew my mind with this one. Xbox series S is super tiny like the Wii but more powerful. I love the quick resume and the game pass. The price is really good for those who don’t want to spend much. I do hate that it doesn’t take disks tho it’s a shame Microsoft do be going digital in the near future.

    Upgrade from 360

    Updates from old XBox 360. So this was for me a more affordable option than the X. I don’t need the discs, the monthly Xbox premium is nice but I could do with the gold I believe. It’s just as the old Xbox just with better graphics and the occasional glitch-I’m pretty much only playing sports games.

    Great console for the price. Its tiny and easily transportable as well. This will run games just as good as my series X does. Since i have it hooked to an older tv I'm not able to use the upgraded visuals the X provides anyways. Its good for the price, but if you're just buying it as a placeholder until you get the X, you might not be happy with it.

    I had gotten this xbox as a gift for my boyfriend. It was an upgrade from his old one! Small, sleek. The picture is nice. I think there are no complaints here.

    For 300, this is a perfect console to jump into the next generation. It's amazing what MS did here by putting out a very capable piece of hardware for a price we haven't seen in the past couple generations. I bought this for my kids and a sub to gamepass. So far no complaints and it's only going to get better as MS puts out more games.

    Microsoft His Another Home Run

    A fantastic console for those who don't wish to be burdened with keeping track of disks and risking damaging them. With Game Pass Ultimate being the best value around, it's a no brainer. The Series X isn't available anywhere, so if you can find a Series S you HAVE TO buy it. Such a great value. Microsoft hit another home run.

    I’ve had this for over a year now and I’m still in love with it like the day I got it. For the price it’s incredibly powerful and the graphics look amazing and being able to play games in Dolby vision and Dolby atmos is a massive game winner. If You can get past the digital only aspect of it then it’s an amazing console.
