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.

      Hey there,

      We couldn't be happier to hear your son is loving his new Xbox Series S Console! 23/7 may be a little too much time in-game, but who are we to judge. We're thrilled he is enjoying hours of exciting gameplay with his new setup! Thank you for sharing your story with the community. We appreciate your feedback, and are glad it was a good investment for you and your family.

      Happy Gaming,

    As a gamer who appreciates all console this one is extremely well. Besides the memory storage issue for the price you cant go wrong with this. I have the series x as well and the difference is minor.

    Amazing value for a console with a surprisingly amount of power. I used this Xbox as my secondary Xbox and put it in my bedroom. It really is a great machine for gaming and for streaming and is super affordable.

    Honestly great console, If your looking for an upgrade from the Xbox One S | X this is the perfect console for you if your on a budget and didn't play too many games. If you do have a big collection of games or disk games I'd suggest getting the Series X. Really the only downisde of this console if the storage but you can easily purchase more for it.

    YES! There is nothing bad to say about this. It does what it’s supposed to do with fluidity. Very quick to load games and has a decent amount of storage. For this price this is hands down the best console.

    I needed a temporary entertainment console when I moved. This little Xbox provided exactly the kind of casual gaming i needed after work. Not too expensive, and runs well

    This product works great, very satisfied with the purchase. Highly recommend. I originally wanted a series x, but no longer. The size is perfect, no overheating. Set up a cabinet fan in tv stand keeps it cool.

    excellent bang for your bucks but leaves a little to be desired. The 512gb hard drive fills up quick and with the 200$ expansion card price it makes more sense to go with the x for more power and a 1tb hard drive.

    Excellent piece of kit for a den, office, study or to travel with. SSD and CPU just as fast as the Series X and the compact size is remarkable. Perfect for game pass, 1080/1440p, for traveling or if value is most important.
