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.

    This is an awesome system, only downside I have is the amount of memory it has. Need an external hard drive for sure!

    For the price point and gameplay, this is excellent value! Only downside is the hard drive space - it could be larger.

    Bought this for my friend’s children! They were super excited and they love it! The graphics are amazing, and they like that they don’t have to keep track of physical games.

    I thought I wouldnt mind a digital only console as much as I do. I find myself wanting to go back to older titles I already have on disc but then remembering I am unable to play them. Kind of a bummer but at least you save like $200
