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’ve been looking for a new Xbox to upgrade from my ps4 for awhile and decided on a whim to get this. It does everything I need it to do and runs amazing!

    Great system the gameplay is crisp and the refresh rate looks nice. I like the new controller only downside is since it’s digital only I feel like it should’ve had a 1TB hard drive.

    I enjoyed the gaming system. But I did order online for store pickup, and the person was very very racist. And that was at the North Lake Mall area in Charlotte NC

    Great console, powerful, a small downgrade from a series X. But for the price, it cant be beat. Smooth 120fps, high quality and fast load times.

    Love this little thing. Great for a bedroom mini-pc. Have my real rig in the Living Room but with Game Pass I use the Xbox a lot and it runs well for not being THAT powerful

    Beat system I have had so far. Video quality is unmatched. Hopefully I can land the X soon but I’m truly satisfied with this system and amazed at how small it is!

    I lucked out finding this at my local BB store. The kids love it. It's much faster at startup than our old Xbox and the controllers have a better grip. We love the purchase.
