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.

    I upgraded from a One S, and for my use case I only see two benefits: 1. The smaller size 2. Faster load times At this point, I personally don't think it would be worth upgrading from the One S if you are using a 1080p TV.

    Pleasantly suprised. Ordered during pre order, eventually scored a ps5 before Christmas. Play this console more than ps5. Only 364 gb usable space, but is fine.

    Couldn't be happier. Didn't need the series X - this thing can do it all. I got a 1TB expansion card and it can hold a ton. Also small and can fit most places.

    The ability to play games at 120 frames is amazing! I'm happy with how this system performs and it's size. It is not the Series-X, but this system is perfect for us.
