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.

    I bought this for now and it’s pretty good, not going to lie, waiting where we can buy the series x when ever we want to buy one.

    Much easier to get a Xbox series s than an X. Runs games with minimal difference that normal people won’t mind and saves me 200 bucks

    I purchased a series x for myself and a series s for my kids. Has basically the same features and plays games pretty well. Only compaint would be the small ssd but with the games they play its not that big of a deal. Also have an external hard drive for xbox one games.

    My son says it is a 6 out of 10. Small storage so you can not put many games on it. He likes it otherwise.

    Awesome console if you have a PS5 and only want it for MS exclusives like me. Also, if you don't care about it not bieng as powerful as the series x. If you own a hi-end gaming pc, you dont need either, but with the scarcity of GPU's now, it's a good option in my opinion.

    Purchased this for my kids, upgrading them from an OG Xbox and One S. Night and day difference for them. The SSD has made the biggest difference for them.

    Great choice for a console of your display is a monitor. For a fully digital console, wished it came with at least 1 terabyte of storage instead of the 500 gigabytes.
