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.

    Had it for over a year now. It starts up a lot faster than my old ps4 did! Zero issues! Buy a rechargeable battery pack for the controller. I hate having to find batteries in the middle of a game lol

    Affordable and effective. $326 after taxes. Perfect if you’re just trying to play games and have fun. Recommend higher gigs sooner than later 512 is not so much for a system. Great buy tho!

    Xbox has good exclusive games and slso supports 120 fps on new fen games. However if you want Spider-Man or GOD get a PlayStation they are around the same price. IMO tho xbox on top.

    I came from an Xbox one and wow all I can say this is an affordable and a powerful machine. I love the grips on the controller and how compact the series s is. It supports native 1440p 120hz but it can upscale 1440p to 4k 60hz on my dell monitor. Overall great console.

    Fantastic upgrade from my Xbox one S! Looking forward to using quick resume between any games I’m playing. I wish it had 1 TB memory but I’ll be getting an external SSD. I can finally use 4K settings on here on my new 4K tv I bought this year so looking forward to that! Very happy I was able to get one in stock at my local BB.

    It's a nice upgrade from the original Xbox One but if you have One X I would wait to get Series X. It's very quiet, compact, and clean look fits well into any decor. Loading time is super fast and definitely very impressed with Microsoft. If you still rock the 1080p TV set then this is not a bad purchase and will tie you up for the next couple of years. My only complaint is for being a digital-only console, the drive is just way too small.

    As an owner of the XSS and XSX the XSS is very impressive for the price of $300! It’s just as fast and quiet as it’s big brother (XSX). I would definitely recommend this anyone on a budget, that has kids, loves game pass, or has limited space. Remember this console has no disc drive so you’ll only be able to play digital games on it.

    I own the previous xbox one S and the only difference that i notice was the loading times. Games definitely load faster on this little box. I didn’t notice any graphic performance from the previous generation. I own a 4k tv with the newest generation 2.1 hdmi port and I didn’t see any significant graphics changes.
