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.

    Still runs solid and no other issues so far. I’d recommend moving up and getting the x if your looking for serious gaming but the s gets the job done regardless.

    I was surprised to see how small this is compared to previous generation consoles and something like PS5. Yet, it is very poweful and has great graphics.
