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.

    Great product for anyone not wanting to spend $600 on a console. This console is for game enthusiast that want to have a console but not have the dedicated time to spend hours playing and the money for disk version.

    Excellent product! Have loved every minute of it. The speed is something that is noticable and very convenient. Graphics only continue to get better. Wish it came with more storage, but u are able to expand it which is a plus.

    I got it from the open box store because they had it priced wrong which was lower than it should have been so it was a win for me.

    Somewhat easy to setup for parents who don't play the game. The price seems reasonable and being all digital is a plus to me. The system is super light weight which is great for my kids who will have to take between houses.

    I purchased this for my girlfriend's son who is 16. I have not seen him so excited about a gift since he was a young child. So far there haven't been any issues with the system. I was so glad we were able to get it before Christmas.

    It is amazing I love the Xbox series S no complaints and if your waiting for the Series X just get the S it prob is to much for your monitor or tv to handle anyways most tvs don’t run 120fps

    XBOX game pass makes this a great value. Graphics are pretty much comparable to my PS4 Pro. So it is not a leap in performance, but it does give you a future lifespan and features for next gen systems like BF 2042.

    This was a gift. I have one myself also. So since I haven’t heard Andy complaints from the recipient and I enjoy playing my series S then it gets a good review. I use it as my “Travel Gaming” console.
