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.

    I purchased this unit after waiting 12 months for the Series X to become available again. After purchasing, I wish I had not waited on the Series X. Its definitely as good for next level gaming.
