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.

    Really wanted the Series X but could not find one. Actually I am satisfied with this Console, its a little power house! Got it connected to a gaming monitor and loading speeds and performance is top notch. I really dont care about 4k or 8k gaming but the performance on this console makes playing games enjoyable. So far I am happy with the Series S and its my secondary console for competitive gaming. Still have my xbox one x on my 4k HDR 75 inch TV so I dont see a reason to upgrade to Series X for time being. Only con for Series S is the lack of interal storage space. But overall happy! One more thing the new Xbox series controlers will get stick drift after a few months had to buy a third party controller.

    Console was solid. However I didn’t like that they only had the small hard drive. And the controller was faulty. In 2 weeks it already had stick drift.
