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.

    Perfect size and doesn’t take a lot of space! Not having to worry about disc is also a great feature. Just wish you could transfer them digitally.

    The Xbox itself is 10/10. Best Buy however that’s a different story. Purchased Xbox All Access and my credit line shows a different serial number than Best Buy has for my order. Had to chat in with 2 different support teams from 2 different companies in order to get everything Im paying for because Best Buy cut corners.

    Loving this so far. I would have given it 5 stars but the controller stopped powering on within a week. That's the only disappointment.
