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 have the xbox series X and love it but it’s to big to travel with so I bought the series S as my travel gaming console and I love how small and portable it is compared to other consoles.

    I finally got my Xbox series s. The only thing I don’t like is that there isn’t really a lot of space. After spending 316 dollars on the console I can spend another 220 for a card with an extra tb of space on it.

    Need a cheaper Xbox? This is pretty much it. My cousin loves this and he just uses it to play Minecraft here and there. I'm sure he enjoys it since he won't stop talking about it. It's cheaper than the normal Xbox too!

    Son enjoys this Xbox. Works great, only drawback is this version does not have ability to play disc games so no ability to buy any preowned games to play on it.

    Dad became a hero for my son when we found this treasure. We've been using it for more than just gaming, too by binging some cool movies. Love the alert tool that Best Buy had to let us know when this became available.

    Amazing system for the size. Hits 120 FPS and can upscale to 4K with HDR. So happy with this, I’ll get an X down the line when more games and developers take more advantage of the technical upgrades.
