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’re not really big on gaming and only buy a couple games every few months, model is an ok starting point. A lot of games take tons of storage so if you aren’t looking to buy an external, keep a careful eye on what you download.

    It's an upgrade from my One S. It's faster better refresh rate a lot smoother gameplay. Definitely great upgrade. Just add an external hard drive if you have a lot of games.

    Well worth it when you consider faster downloads, great game play quality. And you can transfer games from your Xbox One to the Xbox series S. For how to transfer games research the topic via the internet.

    I love this little thing. It’s so small and compact but full of power. Only limitation is the space. Get an external SSD to move games back and forth and it will help a lot!

    Great Console For The Price

    No complaints here, great console for great price. The only downside is the storage is 512 gigs, but luckily I have a external hard so no problem for the time being. The console is very quiet, pretty small your able to take it to your friends house in a backpack, and your able to play your favorite Xbox 360, original Xbox, and Xbox one games.

    I havent had a xbox since the original one came out, but so far this xbox s is very small and load times and very impressive. This is plenty small enough to be mounted behind a TV on wall as well. Love it so far

    I love the Series S ! I couldn’t find the series X but this has filled the gap ! My Xbox one x had a bad hdmi port and Microsoft wanted $250 for the repair the S was $ 299 with a controller ! # nobrainer
