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.

    Perfect little Xbox! If you’re looking to get into playing next gen titles or a second Xbox this is the best choice for the money! Pair it with game pass and it’s an even better value.

    It was an early birthday gift for my 14 year old after his old Xbox One stopped turning on. He says it great. I’m just glad to have finally caught it in the store after searching for almost a year!

    I would definitely recommend this. I wanted a way to play Halo and other Microsoft exclusives on top of my PS5. This scratches that itch and truly is a next gen console in a small package
