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.

    Not a knock on best buy but a bit of a knock on xbox. This thing has frozen games on me at least 10 times since i bought. Not really a big deal to me. Just saying. I wanted something quieter than my ps3 and ps4. So far im very happy with that. Cant even tell it is on. Ps dont get scalped this is not worth more than $320 have fun

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    My son seems to like his new Xbox. But I hate it has half the storage of the x series. It uses way to much data deleting and reinstalling games. What I think really sucks is that the total storage is half a terabyte, so you don’t even have the ability to use all the space for games or streaming apps, bcuz the stuff that comes on the system takes up space.
