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 is great if you have a 4K TV. I was a little put off buy the $299 price tag as to how much better it would be than my current Xbox one S but, the Series S is amazing with the graphics and load times. It’s definitely been a worthwhile purchase !!!

    Purchased this Xbox for my boyfriend so we can both play FH5 when it comes out. He's been using it for a couple weeks now and so far no complaints. These are hard to find so I was ecstatic when I found Best Buy had them in stock near me.

    Xbox Series S has been a great upgrade to game system. When we got a new 4K TV earlier in the year, my old xbox graphics looked horrible on the new screen. The series S has crisp clear graphics to enjoy game system on big screen.

    very impressive system, I was a bit hesitant to get the S over the series X, but have not had a single issue and am very happy with it. It is very fast and a great system. Not sure I would get the X at this point with how great this one is doing.

    I already had one of these. I just needed to upgrade one of the other older ones I had. I love it obviously because it’s my second one.

    I would only recommend this Xbox only if you down own a Xbox One X. The Xbox One X is slightly better. I got lucky one day at Best Buy and they had the Xbox Series X in stock. So I returned my Xbox Series S for Xbox Series X.

    I am highly surprised with this system. Works very well, loads games faster than my ps4 pro. Only thing I don’t like about it is the low memory. Would of been nice to have more system memory before adding an external hard drive.

    This machine is TINY! I mean I was shocked. It’s perfect for the kids and future proofs them for quite a while and you can’t beat the price. The only thing is memory but I knew that going in. As I said before it’s perfect for the kids who play one or 2 games
