Customer Ratings & Reviews

The system is good and was easy to setup. This is the first XBOX system I have actually used since the 360, which I only used for Rock Band lol. I would still say the Playstation is better, I have the PS5 also. It has a lot of Quality of Life features that the XBOX Operation system does not. I guess though the main thing it is used for is playing games and it does that fine and better than any other XBOX. My wife and I co-op on seperate screens and I also have the Series S as a secondary system for this, You can reallllllly tell the graphical difference between the two systems when you are playing side by side, even in older games like Halo MCC, it looks way better on the Series X.

My nephew loved it. Awesome Christmas gift. He has multiple games he plays.

Having been an xbox fan since the original, I have to say I'm not disappointed. Since there aren't any "New" games built around this system, I can only comment on current games....specifically, Assassin's creed Valhalla. The greatest improvement in this game is the load times. On the One S, it seemed like forever when the system had to load from the start screen or between waypoints. Now, it's under 10 seconds. Transfering between games is lightening fast and the "quick resume" feature is fantastic. Graphically, things just seem to "pop" out of the screen more and the movement is much smoother. My only gripe with the system is the internal storage space. I have an external drive that connects but if you want to play a "series x" version of a game, it must be installed on the internal drive. You can store it externally, but it won't play until you transfer it to the internal. Of course, there is an add on external drive that acts as the internal, but it's ridiculously expensive so I wouldn't recommend it. Final gripe, it took a long time to redownload all of my content from the One S to the new system....I'm talking hours. Overall, I love the system and cannot wait until the new Forza comes out to really see what this system can do.

Awesome system! Great 4K game graphics and overall performance. Love it! A WORD OF CAUTION FOR X/S SERIES CONSOLE PURCHASERS. A number of Next Gen gaming Developers were not careful to do pre-installation or pre-run checks on the games that they have written for Xbox. What this means is that an older Xbox One game can run on the X series and cause problems, crashes and freezes, and even turn off your Xbox when it runs into a part of the game that is not (and needs to be) tailor coded for the platform.. In fairness, Microsoft may share a little responsibility for making sure these checks are done as well when the game starts. To avoid these problems and to avoid damage to your Xbox, be sure to download the X/S optimized games and run those only, in regards to Next Gen games. Bottom line, make sure the game is compatible with your X/S series, and if you’re not sure, look it up or contact support. I had this problem & initially thought I bought a lemon Xbox. It turned out that it was the software version of the game itself and that it was completely software related. I realized that I had somehow downloaded both the Xbox one version of a game, and the X/S version, and was running them both at different times unwittingly. Hope this helps someone else! Enjoy your new XBox!

I was extremely excited to get this product and it did not disappoint! I wouldn’t say that I am an avid gamer that knows much about processing speeds and all of the technical stuff, but that being said, even I can tell with the untrained eye how much faster this machine processes my games and the the way it translates to the movement on screen. I had an Xbox one before this and this is leaps and bounds better than the one I had previously. Setup was easy, it hardly disconnects from the internet in my experience, and honestly the overall quality of this system got me addicted to gaming again since I’m enjoying my experience a lot more!

Fast and quiet. The shape is different, like a small subwoofer so it sits on the floor. It handles the 4k graphics of Halo infinite well. It has never had to be power cycled to continue playing a game. I have gotten Halo to freeze, but I was still able to end the game so I'm thinking that's the halo software's fault

I got it as a Present for myself for Christmas and it was on sale before the price hikes a year later. Totally worth it. Eventually need to buy a memory card to increase storage.

I had the Xbox one and playing gta5 was stressful when you have load it up, but with the Xbox one series X ohhhh man it didn’t even take 1 min to load not giving me the option to pick “online instead of story mode”

Grew up on Xbox, this system is the best! My 11yr old loves playing this and my 3yr old loves to watch. Even got a “dummy controller” so he can play with

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

Not much to say. It works exactly like the other Xboxes I've seen from friends and family; includes all the necessities: Online play, Xbox marketplace, Game Pass Core, etc. Recommend the Series X; unlike the Series S, it has a disc drive, and physical media is more important than ever nowadays

Amazing product I would definitely recommend to buy again

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

Already had a launch day series x but my wife wanted to pick up gaming as a hobby so we got a second one to game share with, currently playing diablo with no hiccups she loves how silent and invisible it can be in the tv set up.

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

So far this machine is absolutely amazing. It's so quite the humidifier in the room is louder than the Xbox even while playing assassin's creed and cyberpunk. The quick resume function works as advertised and it's scary cool. I took out cyberpunk, put in watch dogs legion then put back in cyberpunk (because I own all of them on disc) and it picked up right where I left off. It's a feature I never knew I wanted and I never want to live without it haha. Finally the console is super fast. In assassin's creed load times between fast travel points takes less than 10 seconds. Often times I'll fast travel, pick up the phone and by the time I unlock my phone I'm back into the game. It's crazy. I can't wait for what's in store for this generation. Microsoft has kicked it off with a stellar machine that has all it's core features working well right from the get go. The actual 803GB of storage will get filled up fast, so either keep your HDD as a pack mule, or get the SSD. For those thinking of getting both consoles, like myself, I would recommend getting the series X and a digital PS5. The series X is a better machine for the same price as the disc PS5. Play all the cross platform titles on your xbox and just play the exclusives on the PlayStation.

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

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

Xbox has continued to listen to it's fans and this console is the latest in a number of moves to position it as the industry leader. Super fast load times, better graphics, and an amazing library thanks to gamepass make this a great console to own now and in the future. Pros: - Super fast load times. Coming from an Xbox One S the difference is incredible. - Smoother gameplay, menus, everything - Last generation games are consistently being optimized - Console has a cool design and 4K Blu-ray player. It can work vertically or horizontal. Cons: - While xbox continues to optimize last generation games there is still a lack of exclusives. Gamepass and multiple free-to-play games such Apex Legends help as I already have too many games to play, but it would be nice to have games to be as excited about as Spiderman or God of War. - Console is large. While I like the design and shape it doesn't fit in my entertainment center upright (vertical) so I have to lay it on its side which I don't like the look of quite as much. Overall I'm very excited to own this console. This console release feels a bit odd due to the shortage of consoles and "different" leap forward compared to past launches but so far the next generation is looking very promising.

Getting straight to the cons, the achilles heel of this console against the PS5 in terms of desirability is the lack of platform exclusives because of how many titles it shares with PC, but this is also this console's strength against the PS5. It has the equivalent performance of specs of a 2080 Super Ryzen 7 3700x gaming desktop, which many know is a factor of times more expensive than the Series X, which also means this console is spec'd to perform nearly 20% better than the PS5 in equivalent titles. The console's form factor is also much more compact and sensible than that of the PS5, which I think people underestimate too much when picking between consoles because even if you get lucky enough to get one of these it still has to fit wherever you need it to, which the PS5 definitely cannot do as well as the XSX. Lastly and most importantly, the XSX is much, much easier to find in stock and at MSRP at local retailers than the PS5, at least currently. Based on my local store's stats if you are checking each day of the weekend for a month you should be able to get your hands on one within a few weeks, which is very doable and convenient relatively.
