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.

    A great solution for a child's game room without breaking the bank and allowing for playing all the newest games available for Xbox systems.

    I got this as a promo with 2 years of game pass. Would be 5 stars but 512gb gb is unacceptable for a console system. The internal 2 TB memory expansion is 399.00 but seamless gameplay between external and internal gaming.

    Tried this out and decided to go with the Xbox X. This product is fine but X is better if you have 120fps available.

    Great X Box for first time gamers. Purchased for my 6 year old nephew and he loves it. Great graphics and easy to use. Purchased this since it was a little cheaper than the Series X however do see some differences in quality but for a young child it is great!

    Bout this for my daughter. This little machine is amazing! I also got a Series X and I was more excited to see what this thing could do. If you have gamepass, this serves as such. This is a gamepass slingbox. Games load so fast and sometimes faster then the Series X due to the lower res textures. Love the auto hdr feature that adds it to games that never had it. My daughter booted up roblox and wow, it loaded really quick and looks way different because of the hdr added. Perfect system for the below hardcore gamer. You WILL run outta storage quickly.
