Microsoft - Xbox Series X 1TB Console - Black

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.

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.

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 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.

Absolutely in love with this system. Once you experience the speed of getting in and out of games, you will never want to go back. To be honest if you are coming from a Xbox One X, as of this moment it isn't a huge leap forward graphically outside a handful of games like NBA 2k21 or Madden 21 yet because most games were designed for the older system and aren't fully taking advantageof the next gen consoles (YET). 4k is 4k although this systems has the power to keep the resolution in 4k more so than last gen systems. Also there are alot of games that get dynamic upgrades and better framerates (which is amazing). Games that don't have HDR get a nice little auto HDR boost. Even older generation games look so much better now. The ability to play in 4k at 120fps is insane (2.1 hdmi TV needed). Overall it is a must buy for any gamer. I highly recommend.

I purchased the Series X from Best Buy and PS5 from another store and have to say the Series X is hands down the better console. The Series X has been flawless and is crazy fast. My PS5 on the other hand bricked after screen artifacting and countless hard drive restructures. The other plus is the form factor. The Series X blends in with my other tech while my PS5 is huge and sticks out like a sore thumb due to being white. Glad I purchased both but the Xbox works while the PS5 doesn’t.

PC GAMERS PERSPECTIVE: I play mainly on my gaming pc but have used Xbox since the 360 days and have played some PlayStation too and I am not gonna be biased in this review like a fanboy but this console is for you if you previously owned an Xbox one because smart delivery is amazing and even non next gen optimized games run great with fast load times. When I play next gen titles the day tracing in watch dogs legion is comparable to my gaming pc and playing games at 60fps is not an eyesore like 30fps used to be. (Legion is 30fps but much more stable and has never had frames drop) I’ve played dirt 5 and Cold War at 120hz mode and it is impressive just make sure you have a tv that can do that or a monitor! Overall this is an excellent console from Microsoft and you really can’t go wrong with next gen gaming no matter what console you get Sony and Microsoft have made excellent hardware and I’m looking forward to next gen but if you already play on Xbox this console is definitely for you and if you previously owned PlayStation and like the more power the series x offers on paper this system is for you too!
