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.

    Purchased this for my 10 year old to replace his aging Xbox and this machine doesn’t disappoint. Downloads are faster, game load quicker anf he spends more time having fun! Got it on sale for 250 and Best Buy had plenty in stock.

    If your looking for an upgrade from any previous generation and don't want to spend 500 on the Series X this is perfect. The only downside is that you can't play older disk games. Its quicker, smoother and graphics are much better.
