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.

    Scaled back option, perfect if you don’t need 4K

    If you don’t have a need for 4K this is perfect! Just as quick to load games as the Series X we have in the living room and handles everything on a 1080p display with ease.

    Have no other words to describe it but as perfect, You get 120FPS on some games, and nice picture quality, and also Ray Tracing, for a 300 console what else can you ask for.

    My son loves it. Waiting on the new Halo game. Easy use for 10 year old. Takes it with him when we go out of town and don't have to worry of him leaving or breaking disc games.
