Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Xbox Series S's low price, excellent performance, and crisp graphics. Many also praise its compact size and ease of use, finding it a great console for the family. However, some users point out the limited storage space as a significant drawback, and the lack of a disc drive is also a recurring concern for some buyers. While some experience occasional heating issues or lag, these are not universally reported problems.

    Great next gen option for its price. Unfortunate to not have a disc drive on this console, but good for casual gaming

    Happy that I bought the series S instead if X. Downside is there’s no disk player, but it was about 200 less than the series X so worth the savings!

    From original Xbox one to the series s was a humongous upgrade. And I scored it brand new for $250 on sale.

    Maybe I should’ve gotten the series x so I can use my old 360 discs but still this is a great console, it doesn’t take up space and I get to play with all my friends who got Xboxes when I got a ps5, gamepass is also great.
