    Happy with the Upgrade

    Everything I expected. Much faster than the Xbox One X. Superior graphics and good sound. Only downside is the 1TB SSD size. Did discover that my external HD cannot play those X/S optimized games unless it is locally on the device or on an expansion card. Beyond that happy with the upgrade.

    I had the first gen xbox one x. Only replaced the power supply and it still works. With the new console everything runs fast and smooth. Even the ethernet port are upraded for the faster speeds. If noticed the difference!!! CFB 25 here we come!!!!

    I was one of the few that played beat the bots second round of release and got one. I had the day one og Xbox , held out on the one x and the graphics can’t compare. Details I’ve never seen, game play smoother and less blurred. The quick resume game function is awesome, I can pause a game come back two days later to that exact point and continue playing. My download speeds seem about the same as the one, around 150-170mbps. If you still have the one, you’re doing it wrong. K/D ratio has gone up. Went pro my first week and now sponsored by Munster :)

    I owned all consoles and eventually sold this console, having a high end PC I am able to game and play just about every Microsoft title. When I owned this:… The system is very quiet and compact. Very powerful for its tiny footprint, allowed for great 4k gaming, being able to quickly boot up games and swap between titles quickly is amazing and a feature I wish PC could obtain. If you don’t have a high end gaming PC I’d recommend the series X ( get game pass too)

    Had to upgrade because my old xbox won't play new games. so far i like the X but wish I didn't have to upgrade just to play new games. I also hate having to buy their over priced storage card for my games instead of being able to use an external storage drive like i have for years.

    A Beautiful Console

    I own every current system (PS5, Switch, PC, & this). There is really no better value or user experience in gaming than a Series X coupled with Game Pass. After Microsoft's disappointing One series of consoles I'm happy to say that they have absolutely made amends this generation. This generation (the Series S & X) puts them back up front in terms of value and user experience. Xbox Live is still the leader of online gaming interactivity and Game Pass is literally the Netflix of gaming.

    My system runs great my only real complaint is that the console runs really hot so when im playing in my room it heats up the areas very quickly. Also you need an internet connection to set it up not an issue for most just be aware if your wanting to set this up before your internet it wont work

    Excellent upgrade over any console. While the series S runs admirably for the cost, paired with the right tv (preferably and OLED), and the right HDMI cables, receiver, etc…you get a well oiled machine ready and packed to deliver. Great speed, stunning graphics and visuals, response time is outstanding, and plenty of storage space. I currently have 2 of these and 1 series S…and will never look back

    I got my hands on this at Best buy. Purchased it online. And was so easy to go and pick up. In and out. When I brought it over to my brother's place to give to his 2 sons it was a crazy amount of energy going on once they seen what they got!!! Never felt better in my life to see their reactions!!!!

    Picked up my console on launch day and I’ve been playing it ever since. I will say that the console is a lot bigger than I was expecting but it’s less bulky than the original Xbox One. My games run ridiculously smooth and I upgraded from the Xbox One S. The graphics are stellar on my 4K UHD Samsung tv. The console is basically silent, it hasn’t overheated, load times are essentially nonexistent and the console itself boots up very quickly. I haven’t had any issues so far with my console but I purchased the 2 year Geek Squad protection, just in case.

    I am an owner of both a PS5 and recently an Xbox Series X. Currently keep finding myself going to the Xbox to check out more games on the Game Pass library or even going back to some of the games I missed from previous generations whether it be a disc or digital purchase. My only knock on the system so far is that it is very bulky, so bulky that it doesn't fit in my entertainment center like all the other consoles have in the past. + Backwards compatibility + Game Pass - Bulky

    The Ultimate Xbox Machine

    Faster loading times, improved game performance, and ultra-quiet function is the best part of the Series X. I admit that I prefer the Xbox consoles, but I have no complaints about the system itself, and I don't think anyone else would either. The UI is the same as Xbox One, so there is no need to learn how to navigate your system all over again. The controller has a handful of improvements that remind me of an Elite Series 1 "lite" in ways but don't change what has been great for so long about the Xbox controller. I'd buy another one in a heartbeat.
