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.

    I have been a PS guy since PS1. The new game zone and ease of download compared to PS is astounding. Also for my son he likes minecraft and xbox is made for it.

    Great product and value. It was available on your sight earlier than most others. Shipment arrived on time and great follow up. I also bough a 1 terabyte memory card to go with it.

    Amazing value for a 'budget system". Games load fast and look great at 1440p. I am mainly a PlayStation user but this console is perfect for when I feel like downloading Xbox games and more on gamepass!

    Runs fast, and hasn't given any issues with installation. No Disc Drive obviously, but you get use to just downloading games. I do recommend getting the additional hard drive for more game storage.

    Good console to buy, I prefer digital due to you giving more space instead of using your cd's or worrying about them to get scratched up. Also the console is small so a lot more space.
