Amazing product I would definitely recommend to buy again

I can't believe I finally got my hands on one. Caught a lucky restock on the site. Dropped a purchase as soon as possible for pick up and after a solid week of waiting. It was ready for me to pick up! The console is extremely fast. I've been holding off on upgrading my TV even for years until I got my hands on a Xbox Series X and/Or a PS5. PS5 is still impossible to get my hands on and I finally got my Series X so the 4K big TV is next. This thing is so smooth and so fast compared to my Original day one Xbox one console. Sea of Thieves especially really is optimized so nicely for Series X that it out performs my gaming PC even. Series X is an absolute must not only for the Physical media drive but the sheer power over the Series S makes this the must have console. Forza Motorsport 7 and Horizon 5 never loaded so fast and held frame rates so stable. Performance is everything. Graphics come next. Now I can't wait to see it in 4k soon enough. Highly recommend a Series X if you can get your hands on one. They sell out fast.

This is by far hands down the best console that Microsoft has thus far produced. It is very quiet and I have had zero problems with it since I have had it. I was fortunate enough to get one on the November 10th release date. If it wasn't for Best buy doing a second wave of pre-orders on September 22nd, I may not have been able to get one and they were the only retailer at the time that we're doing multiple pre-order waves on September 22nd while everyone else just did one wave of pre-orders. The backwards compatibility feature is very nice with the built-in auto HDR, wich makes the previous generation games feel like something brand new and the frame rate boost to those games is nice as well. The quick resume feature is a game changer, where you can quickly switch between multiple games back and forth in quick sucession without having to sit and wait at a loading screen for an exorbitant amount of time. It is a well-built compact machine that does not take up a lot of space and paired with the right TV that supports the series X you will get to enjoy some very beautiful graphics. The best console that Microsoft has built so far and I thought the 1X was the best one they built but they have now trumped the 1x.

My fiancé and I went halfsies on this console because we’re both December babies I wasn’t going to settle for something that I couldn’t play my older games and dvds on for our birthdays. The picture is great. The load up time is next to nothing, the quick return feature is brilliant. We can go from game to show and right back to where we left off in a game without wasting any time at all.

This is the system for true gamers. Has backwards compatibility and better yet allows you to run RetroArch which allows you to play your collection of retro roms of years past.

I love this Xbox. It works great and I highly recommend it.

Came in best condition and I'm having an absolute blast✨

We are using for first time, it’s user friendly. Connectivity and all other stuff are easy for new user. Entire family having fun in play games

A huge update from the Xbox 1! So glad I got this for my son, he loves it so much. Also the payment plan option with no credit was amazing as well. Best Buy is great!

Finally update my Xbox console after having the Xbox s for a good long while. Will always be a fan of Xbox it does exactly what I want it to do and will always be the console I choose!

Was exactly what i was expecting! I love my xbox!!! I was a Playstation die hard until the last generation i had to have this one when i had purchased a 4k tv

Great console. Great help at store and he was very knowledgeable.

i was closing to upgrade my xbox one console and was or course between PS5 and xbox X. i choose the xbox x and what a good choice, my instant favorite features was the setup took no time at all and kept all my content from my xbox one and didn't have to be a tech wizard to do it. graphic are great and as long as you have room for it to breathe no overheating issues at all. one thing to note is making sure your TV is getting the most out of it , you need a 4k 120Hz TV with Dolby vision, HDR 10 and a 2.1 cable to get the max potential for gaming's and Movies, also for TV look for one with a 144hz HDMI1 port to be in good shape for any software updates in the future

Perfect console for me been on Xbox since 360 now with better graphics

Love the new series x! Super fast, quiet and definitely improves overall gameplay. There are some bugs thought that I hope Microsoft will get updates for soon. 1) Several times I have lost game audio with the quick resume feature. When I close out the game and restart the game audio is back. The feature is great in concept but needs some work. 2) There should be an easier way to completely power down the xbox. Right now you need to go deep in to the settings to do that, without unplugging the machine. When I just normally power down the xbox, it is still technically on, and after being off for several hours, the box was still very warm to the touch. 3)When I "turn off console" from my controller, the xbox powers down then comes right back on. Not all the time but several times this has happened. Also, when the xbox comes back on on its own, the controller is completely disconnected and I cannot reconnect it even with the sync button. The only way to reconnect the controller is to completely power down the system then it reconnects no problem when it starts back up. 4) I have had connectivity issues with my new steel series arctis 9x headset which supposedly was specifically designed for this machine. The headset would disconnect for no reason sitting in the same spot. This is an intermittent issue. Don't get me wrong. This is a great machine and I don't regret the purchase at all! I expect there to be some issues when launching new tech. I just hope Microsoft provides some fixes soon.

great quality. excellent device. when it messed up best buy immediately gave me a new device in its place.

Quick Resume is a nice new feature. Cold boot time is significantly faster than previous models. With big title games often being larger than 80-100GB in size, 1TB really isn't enough storage. This should have had 4TB internal storage minimum. All Series X|S optimized games must be on internal storage or proprietary expansion card. You can still play older games off an external HDD. I have the additional 1 TB propriety expansion card but I am NOT a fan of this overpriced storage. I feel like Microsoft should have come up with a better solution than making us move files back and forth from internal to external storage. While you can orient the system horizontally, you will find that the bottom of the system builds up heat on the bottom quickly. A vertical orientation is certainly the most efficient but you may find it a bit challenging to make that work in an entertainment center, as most other devices are horizontally oriented. You definitely want to give this thing at least 4 inches clearance on the right and top for ventilation. Timing on the system is disappointing as Halo Infinite was postponed, I expect that as developers catch up with the technology we will see more impressive games. If you play "The Medium" on this console and see strange video artifacts, don't be alarmed your console is probably fine, it is the game. I have witnessed this on all 5 Series X consoles I have played on. If I hadn't seen this on multiple units purchased from different vendors, I would have been furious thinking that a brand new console was defective. So far this is the only Series X|S optimized game I have seen this occur on. I recommend this over the Series S for two reasons: 1.) The UHD Blu-ray, I like to watch movies and 2.) the Blu-ray drive, I like to be able to be able to play my older games and I like being able to purchase used games at a much more reasonable price. When we lose that physical media, we are locked into the often over-priced Microsoft Store.

Very good console and servers that work wonderfully, it is a very fast console that loads everything super fast

Works amazing got it that same day and is super quiet

Waited over a year to get it. Wasn't going to pay a scalper $1,500 for it. While I waitted I saved a little each payday and finally got it at the correct price. $499. Not a hardcore gamer but its nice to have and flip on to kill some time and prrforms better than a PC system I could custom build and at a more affordable price.
