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.

    It is a good game console, really very economical versatile and it works if you do not use disk games, its 120fps I think is evident in each game, but the truth is that its older sister the X series is much better. I recommend it for players who are starting and need a good console to enter the world of XBOX and gaming

    Love how we don’t have to keep buying game disc all the time. Graphics are great and so much fun to play. Even great grandma can come play.

    Good for price just upsetting that it only has like 300 or so gb free and most games are taking a massive chunk of that but besides that a good buy!

    Its awesome the only downside is the external drive can't play xbox series x/s games . The games that are exlusive for series s need to be installed on hard drive to play. Can't be played straite thru external drive. FU Microsoft for not making it properly, its always something random with you guys.

    Smaller than expected works fast. Quick resume has a few glitches but really helps get back in the game quicker. Only downside is optimized games for it, but more keep coming out each day.

    Great experience with online sales process. Best Buy is doing an admirable job keeping ‘resalers’ from snatching up every available Xbox. And friendly support during pick up.
