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.

    This system is wholly unnecessary. With no disc drive, you lose a lot of backwards compatibility, and after the operating system is accounted for, you've got 300-and-change GB of storage on an all digital system. Not worth upgrading, snag a Series X instead.
