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.

    If you can get the Series X do so, 4K is awesome. However, at 2K resolution, the Series S gets you close to it at a cheap price. side note: Unlike the Xbox One S/X, there is no optical port.

    Compact and powerful, if you are not focused on extremely high gaming at 4K resolution or higher this is the console for you. Easy to set up (via XBox app) and connects seamless to you hone media devices. Connection speeds rival any previous Gen XBox and load times are super quick. We bought this for our son who is off at college so transporting to to and from is simple and fits right into his luggage.

    This little console is amazing small and powerful the only reason it gets 4 stars is because it gives me 2 problems when I press the Xbox button on the controller to bring up the home screen sometimes it won’t come up it’ll just make the Xbox noise but won’t bring up the Home screen or the power off screen the Xbox isn’t frozen I can still play the game I just can’t turn it off or switch to a different game my second problem is sometimes it’s like my controller just disconnects even though it’s on but when I’m playing a game sometimes I can’t move and the game still isn’t frozen i’ll have to take the batteries out of the controller then put them back in for it to work again
