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’m loving my new gaming setup. Definitely a step up from the og Xbox One with the right monitor. For me Xbox has the better approach to next gen consoles over PlayStation. The series X targets 4K at 30-60 FPS and the series S targets 1440p at 60-120 FPS. If you do decide to go with a series S then be prepared to have at least a 1440p 120hz monitor or you won’t see any better performance over the current generation of console
