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.

    Almost as good as the series X yet a much smaller profile. Worth the buy!

    Was quiet and ran perfect. The shipping was not great as the box was dented and what not. This isn’t Best Buy’s fault but other than that it arrived 2 days early and works great.

    Box was a little damaged when dropped off, and the video flickers quite frequently on video apps even with the correct video settings, the home button and A button on the controller it came with constantly get stuck and the audio jack makes both of my headsets buzz when chatting online. I honestly preferred my Xbox one x over this, I should have just waited until the series X was available. The positive notes are that downloads, game play and menu response are way faster on the series s and the compact side is a plus.

    Great 1080p gaming machine that is super quick loading. Only negative and its big is the tiny hard drive in it. You need to upgrade almost instantly as you will run out of space quickly.

    Way smaller than I thought it would be. Still packs a punch. Loses some features compared to the X but azing value for what it can do. Not being 4k native does detract from it a bit.

    Awesome system and love how small it is. The biggest draw back is the internal memory. But all in all, 299 for a next gen console is a steal.
