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.

    Xbox series S is a good value and easier to find than the series X. If you don’t mine not having disc drive this is for you.

    Great 1440p value console, very portable as well. If you're not going to be gaming in 4k, go for this rather than the Series X.
