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.

    This little system is great companion for 1080p and 1440p gaming monitors with high refresh rates, I currently have a 1080p/ 165hz gaming monitor I use this on and I couldn't be happier.

    Great value. Upgraded from One S. The quick resume alone is worth the upgrade. As far as capabilities, this unit runs cyberpunk acceptably whereas the One S was unplayable.

    I love this console. It’s quick and runs great graphics. Just be prepared to buy an extra storage card sometime in the next year or so as the 512 gb goes quickly with big game like call of duty or assassins creed. As long as you don’t mind no disc reader and slightly less graphics and capabilities of the series x this console is great.

    Great little unit. Nice upgrade from the previous XBOX. Size is perfect. Digital all the way reduces disc clutter and makes life easier for the gamer who doesn’t want to get up to change discs.
