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.

    Bought this one to replaced my daughter's old one. Other than her not being able to use discs it was a great buy.

    I love the new graphics and smooth game play. Digital is the way to go and it uses less energy then the Series X!

    This console is great for just a couple large file games, and a few smaller ones as well. The quick resume feature is great, giving you the ability to jump right back in the game where you left off. Shipping was fast and great as always. I would definitely recommend this console. Although it is definitely not as powerful as the series x, it's definitely worth the money for the upgrade.
