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.

    Awesome little gaming system for running Full Hd games. Love that there is the option to purchase the Xbox games pass which gives you full access to hundreds of games including Halo, and Forza. Runs great for any 60fps gamer.

    This is the 2nd Xbox Series S I have. Purchased this one when I was stranded working in North Dakota for a couple of months and ordered a carrying case for it as well from another vendor. Worked well and was easy to purchase and pick up at the local best buy.

    Haven’t had this for very long time but this little console is amazing and I can see a performance difference in comparison to the one s. Was lucky enough to snag this 2 days after Christmas with some Christmas money and it’s all that I could afford at this time but I will be searching in hopes of getting the series x sometime this year.

    Settled for the S due to the X being so hard to find. The Xbox Series S is a tough console to nail down. It's next-gen, but with one rather large drawback; it isn't a 4K games console, which will undoubtedly rule out some potential buyers from the off. But it is about more than just resolution. It slays with XBOX live.

    Was very happy with the ease of picking this up using preorder. This was a very easy product to set up. The Xbox came with easy to use instructions. I was able to access to game store and order a few games immediately with ease. Definitely get the Game Pass. Also suggest having a fast internet service.

    This machine is a great supplement to any gamers collection. If your not a super xbox fan and opted to get a PS5.... or to wait for one, then this is a great option. You get access to all the games you want through the game pass and you dont have to collect physical media for a system thats not your main or favorite.
