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.

    Perfect console for someone who doesn’t play that often or is addicted to one or two games. Got as a gift for my GF who plays Assassins Creed, she was playing on the older Xbox X and loved the improved graphics on this console.

    Small and fits perfectly behind my monitor. Just low on storage would recommend getting a ssd for the extra space.

    Was skeptical about making the jump to get an Xbox. But I’m glad that I did, wish I’ve bought one sooner. Runs so smooth, thought it was an exaggeration on fast it loads. I love it

    I really wanted my grandson to get the series X but I could only find one of those. So this is what o got him and he loves it. It’s really fun playing online and being able to just play and not have load times or freezing frames.

    For the price is great, think if it as a low end PC maybe even better. Bought this a couple years back and don’t regret it.

    This Xbox is perfect for me. I play pretty much the same games. NBA 2k, madden, any GTA that comes out, and occasionally I’ll purchase a COD game. Works great for me. All my movies are digital anyways. It’s time to cut the cord anyways. Love it.

    When paired with an external drive, this thing is a beast. I've been using it nonstop since I got it and I cannot suggest it enough. No issues at all. If you might play on a few different monitors/TVs, it's perfect because it's nice and portable.

    I was hesitant on getting this console since I had the Xbox One S and it was working just fine. I'm beyond glad I did, the difference in performance is massively noticeable. I don't purchase discs so this is perfect for me and what I use it for.

    Love my new Xbox S. Husband thought he was getting an upgrade, he has One, but I ended up using this. Only thing is it gets hot, I had to purchase a cooling fan to place underneath.

    Underrated, unless you have a 4K tv, this is the Xbox to get. The graphical improvement of the series x is only worth it if you have a high end 4K tv like an oled. If not, grab this and enjoy! You won’t be missing out on anything!

    1080p beast? Check. 1440p beast? Check. 4k beast? It’s manageable on the right display. So check. Available? You’re absolutely right. Unlike the PS5 and Series X, this is available.
