Customers are saying

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.

    Outstanding Little Console

    Excellent support console! The SSD alone should be enough to convince anybody of purchasing a Series S. Add the “quick resume” feature and it becomes a must-have support console. Absolute best value when paired with a Game Pass subscription.

    Excellent gaming console! I've had very few issues. There were a few times where I had the console on for more than a day and it would overheat and refuse to run a game but after a 30 minute to an hour rest, it would be as good as new!

    Really digging this console. Game Pass is a solid value and this console plays current gen games very well. While I prefer my PS5 overall, I get to play with my PC player friends through crossplay so that's awesome.

    Really enjoy the Series S - great opportunity to get a foot in next Gen without breaking the bank. Playing with friends on the One X really made apparent the impacts of the M2 drive. It’s much smaller than I anticipated which is great!

    Finally got series s after a month of looking for either series x or s. Got it delivered with no issues, and its smaller than i thought so it saves space. Great console, i recommend it for the casual gamer.

    With all the recent sales of the XSS this is the best value in gaming. The small design and amount of game pass games makes this the go to console for Xbox.

    Bought this to replace a Xbox 360. The Series S is much quieter, loads much quicker, and runs much smoother. The controller has good battery life. The only thing that I don't like is that the triggers feel a bit mushy.
