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.

    Its another video game console.. need to buy additional storage, not a fan of the power supply. It was taking 10 hrs to install a game, which is whatever, ill just play a game on the cloud.. right? Nah, the install stops when i played a game on the cloud.. i for some reason could only turn it on from my iphone, which kind of didnt make sense to me…. The library could be alittle more informative about what you are buying… i returned it 16 hrs after purchase, maybe got 1 hr play time because of installs, cloud gaming, set up, sleeping, not being able to turn it on without my phone…
