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.

    This is the 5th one I've bought over the past few years. (I've given them as gifts) everyone loves them! I actually prefer mine to my PS5 and my Series X, just for the portability factor... It's really tiny. Games look great on it, just a little downgraded if you play at 4K. But I don't mind it at all. Well worth the $240 it's on sale for!

    Used primarily as a streaming player and occasional game play, works great with aftermarket tv-type remotes. CEC leaves something to be desired, doesn't always turn the tv on (tried with multiple tv's of different brands, same result).

    Great budget version for next gen gaming. If you are a hardcore gamer, this isnt for you, but as a supplement to a PC or PS5, this is a great way to get xbox exclusives and GamePass.

    What can you say that most don't already know about Xbox. I like the no DISC and just using a pass. Works amazing on WiFi only.

    Thing is still working. I leave it on all the time and haven't had any issues. Make sure you clean it every now and then so dust doesn't coat it.
