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.

    Very fast processing and great picture quality. Not quite as good as the Series X but still very good overall.

    Since this is a Christmas gift from Santa (me).. I would like to say the box presents well. Can’t wait for the kids to open it and see how it works! Got it for an excellent price with a free extra remote. Can’t beat the deal!

    Its a nice console, but i feel like the options are limited. Maybe im just not used to this console so i havent reached the full potential of its capabilities. We shall see if i come around to it over Playstation.
