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.

    Easy to set up and get going!!! Using the app to set it up was a lot faster than doing it on the Xbox.

    I bought this for my kids and we got Sing 2 with microphones. Kids are adorable but they can’t read fast enough for Karaoke so they just mumble most until the scream the part they know. Super adorable but only like the first two songs. After that the inevitable sets in and I realize my kids will never be pop stars.

    This is a great entry level console for the Next Generation. Gaming at 1440p at 120 HZ is amazing. The only downside of the storage could be more

    A great version of the next gen system I brought for my kid. Definitely an upgrade from Xbox one s that they had. Majority of their games were digital copies that’s why I went with this one. Only down fall is the storage space.
