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.

    Extremely fast console with crisp graphics. Can't wait to get the Series S when more are available and move this one to the man cave cuz the Series S goes to the Master Bedroom to watch HI DEF BLU RAY. TELL THEM PRONTO CREDIT sent you!

    This review is only after the reveal of the new black xbox series s, which will have a better storage capacity (1TB compared to ~300GB) than the original. It is still a good buy if youre not planning on playing a lot of games, but if you are save for the black S.

    I bought this Xbox for my little brother. He had been wanting one for a really long time and was watching for it to be available. Once it was, we ordered it for in-store pickup and it was ready a few days early.

    Excellent, Superfast load speeds, 120 fps on select games, next-generation experience at an affordable price! It is quiet it fits in smaller spaces and was super easy to set up if you have an existing Microsoft account.

    I bought my series s for a early christmas gift. I have to say the exclusives on xbox are fire. On top of that yku can get Xbox Game Pass that unlocks over 400+ games all for free! Definetly worth the 300!

    Had it for about a month and I have to say it’s been a great machine. I’ve owned many Xbox’s and this one by far in regards to functionality, performance, and quality is the best one I have owned.

    Honestly mostly got it to play some 360 games I miss, but got game pass and has some good games. Graphics are nice too. The only downside is storage and how expensive the upgrade is.

    Bought this because I at on PS primarily and intend on getting the ps5. But with upcoming titles on xbox I knew I'd want to get a next gen xbox. The series s will work perfectly as I also am only running a 1080p display atm. Runs fast, little bit if resolution drop on some titles but solid for it's price. I recommend if you want to save money on next gen and/or if you plan on primarily gaming on another system.

    Great console! I still prefer a disc drive, but for the money it's well worth it. The size, or lack of, is the most amazing aspect of this console. The series S has an amazing amount of power for such a compact design.
