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.

    Not going to lie, I got peer pressured into buying this from one of my friends and I wish I would have waited like I planned for a PS5, but my time with this console was amazing honestly it is PERFECT for game pass and it's a really good deal because it's basically a cheap PC and it runs games really well, the only down side really for me was the storage but that can be solved very easily with an external device. If you're getting into the Xbox ecosystem this is definitely not a bad place to start.

    Great Console - Only Problem is Storage

    I purchased this item worried that it wouldn't run much faster than my Xbox One and be exponentially slower than the Series X, but I was very wrong! The Series S runs quickly, still looks great on my monitor, and is a fraction of the cost! One big downside is the lack of storage space. I can hold maybe 3 games downloaded at a time on my Xbox. This issue, however, is mitigated by buying the SeaGate external hard drive where you can then have 2.5 TB of storage - over twice that of the Series X - and still >$100 less than the stock Series X.

    Absolutely in love with this product! I didn’t realize it didn’t have a compartment for discs but honestly it doesn’t even matter because if you get the game pass you’re set for a long while! I got it for my fiancés birthday last year and he fell in love too! And I was hooked the moment Hogwarts came out! Ran beautifully on the console and im tempted to buy another for mommy living room
