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.

    The older I get the more I move to digital. This console is right up my alley. I got the expansion card for it so the storage isn’t too much of an issue. Would definitely recommend to any gamers out there. May not be quite as powerful as the X, but it does the job pretty well.

    Fast load times, slower than the Series X but not by much. Will need to buy a separate storage for this one. The 500gb is barely enough for 3 games nowadays.
