Microsoft - Xbox Series X 1TB Console - Black

If you are also a PC gamer, this is the console to get. 1) Works great out of the box with PC gaming monitors over HDMI connection with support for 1920 x 1080 120Hz, 2560 x 1440 120Hz, and 4K at 60Hz or 120Hz. Just make sure your PC monitor supports HDMI 2.0 or HDMI 2.1... On some computer monitors it works right away or you may have to adjust the HDMI settings to 120Hz - but overall it works with all the PC gaming monitors we tested it with. 2) If you are a PC Gamer, get the Xbox Ultimate Game Pass. The main reason why is if you buy or download games on the Xbox Series X/S, you also can play these games on your PC/Computer. 3) The Xbox controller feels good and solid. I like the fact you can take out the batteries and replace them with rechargeable ones. Easy to swap out for freshly charged batteries you the controller runs low during a gaming session. The controller also works with your computer! 4) The hardware inside is a beast! In my honest opinion, you are basically getting a $1000+ gaming PC for $500 with the Xbox Series X.

Wow, where to start, packaging is great basic and everything you need, the Series X is heavier than expected, setup was simply after the initial update. System run super quiet! The heat exhaust is as expected from what is it doing, just as a PC would. Some games need an extra update i.e RDR2 but loading in time was roughly 60sec compared to 2mins on the OneS, visual improvement for sure and the game runs so smoothly! Looking forward to running some older games to see the difference but AC Valhalla is great on this, I love how you can actually play a game while install is still continuing compare to the older systems you could only play a small portion till installation was fully complete. New Xbox store is sleek and fresh. This chunky gaming box is worth every cent!

So far I can say this Xbox series x has been the best purchase I’ve made in a really long time as far as tech goes. This device is really ahead of its time Very easy to use and setup The graphics are amazing The user interface is going to take some time for me to get used to coming from PlayStation But I honestly think the Xbox series x gets the job done. Extremely quiet while running games. The quick resume option will come in handy when you have more than three games and want to switch seamlessly from game to game and continue where you left off. The controller is solid love the color Remember to buy rechargeable batteries and a solid head set to pair.

Best Xbox Ever! Had a slight glitch on initial download where on restart console did that audio pitch freeze/restart but all has been fine since. Disc drive verified to be working. Packaging was cool...like a little present. My son will be thrilled come Christmas. Now if i could just find one for myself. I also recommend the $230 storage upgrade..think of it as a xbox series x pro with 2 tbs nvme ssd storage...superb. I love sleek look and not the monstrosity that is the ps5 trapper keeper edition.

After being a computer gamer for forever. I became a dad and needed a console to fill my gaming habits. I immediately bought a one X and loved it. After getting an lg oled C9 I knew I wanted to make the jump to the series x or ps5. I ended up getting the series x and I’m so glad that I did. Everything plays amazing! I didn’t think it was going to be such a large improvement graphically and performance wise, but it truly is. If you own a tv that supports 120fps I would buy the series x in a heartbeat. I’m beyond excited to see the future of true next gen games in a year or two. If you don’t have a top of the line tv. I would wait a year or so and upgrade your tv before upgrading to the series x so you can get the full benefit of wait this amazing system can can give, but either way upgrading to it now or later you simply won’t regret it.

After spending an entire month with my brand new Xbox Series X, I have to say that this console is such a great piece of hardware. The Xbox Series X has lived up to, all of its hype surrounding the new console back when it was revealed at the Game Awards 2019. With that said, the console is whisper quiet even while playing graphical intensive games like, Gears 5, Red Dead Redemption 2, Resident Evil 2: Remake, it doesn't matter...it's super quiet. The best part about the Xbox Series X is, the massive backlog of games it has due to Microsoft's dedication to Backwards Compatibility as well. And not only do older Xbox and Xbox 360 games look better, but they get a huge boost in loading and overall performance. With that said, the new Xbox Series X so far has made a first great impression on me, and I believe that the console and its games is only going to get better in the near future. Also, with the reveal of new games in development such as Avowed, Bright Memory Infinite, Fable, Halo Infinite, Perfect Dark, Scorn, State of Decay 3, etc. I think this new generation of Xbox is going to, absolutely deliver great first-party games to their fans across the board.

Well, I've put in abt 50 hours of game time on my Xbox Series X since I picked it up on Xmas Eve and it's as good as advertised. It's so quiet one cannot hear it, even under heavy game loads unless one puts their ear right next to it. It blows out moderately warn air which is no warmer than my One X console I've had for 3 years. The load times vary, but even the longest load time I'd have on my One X, it's 4x faster now on the Series X. Even some games open in about 5 seconds compared to 30 on my One X. I now can put way more environment/landscape mods on Skyrim than I could in the One X without it crashing. And it still loads in about 10 seconds, where it'd take well more than a minute on my One X with far fewer mods. Even moving between scenes with the mods, it takes no more than 10 seconds. It takes no time if I've already been to a certain area The game pad is just slightly smaller with an improved D-pad. My thumb glides over it much easier. The rest is the same except with an extra button between the the menu buttons below the big Xbox console control button. It's specifically for instant in-game image captures. I highly recommend this if you want to play your current Xbox games now even faster and some improved. Otherwise, I'd wait until summer, or even next Xmas season when many Series X console specific games will be out by then.

Next Gen right? Well not so fast. Has the same old user interface as the previous Xbox one. You know it’s funny how they claim it’s the most powerful console but didn’t update a simple user interface to experience some sort of next gen feel when starting up your next gen console for the very first time. So why believe what they claim after all? Check this out , another point. The colors are not as contrast as with the PS5. You can also find this online when you search a comparison game running side by side. You will notice The PS5 has a better contrast ratio while the Xbox looks a tad bit lower giving the in game characters a more realistic look on the PS5. Maybe they will correct in the future, I truly hope so. Also Starting of you will feel the difference of the PS5 with a new user interface, a built in game that combines their years of all the PlayStation technology into the game and making the game fun at that! Exploiting their newly adaptive triggers on the controller of the PS5 was very new and creative. I’m just a tad bit disappointed why Xbox did really nothing with any updated new look feel features. Yes the games run smooth, yes the console is very quiet. And yes it’s very fast. But this was all to be expected. It’s a shame they couldn’t have at least updated the user interface . I guess the only unique features is the in game pause , play another game, and come back to where you left of on your first game. Which is cool I guess, but I’m not the type of guy to like my console straining more power then what I’m currently using it for. The controller also feels very similar to the last gen. I would like to add they did however, create a faster response on the controller then the PS5 controller .I’ve noticed the PS5 is not as quick response as the Xbox. So shoot em up games, you probably will have a slighter advantage on the Xbox Series X. All in all It is a absolute beast for next gen gaming, but lacking a lot of the differential unique features is were Xbox really dropped the ball. Still a beast of a console especially with Xbox buying exclusive title rights to company’s like the creators of Doom). The future looks bright for the Xbox Series X. 4/5
