Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Xbox One X is amazing and a bargain 4k video and 4k gaming console @ this special $299.00 price tag! If you are upgrading from an original xbox one or and xbox one s you are going to notice massive improvements. #1 the graphics will be the biggest. Gaming in 4k! Not available on the xbox one or xbox on S (4k blue and video playback is available in 4k on the S model but not gaming) speed is #2 (menu and loading times will blaze by compared the other models. On average I feel that its around 20%. I judge this based on my son and I played the same games at the same time with a regular xbox one and a xbox one x. It was very apparent the x greatly out preforms the other console. (We now have 3 xbox one X's) #3 its way smaller. Thats right this Xbox wont need its own entertainment center and it has a internal power brick! Altogether I would say it takes up about 25-35% less space than the Xbox one. Now 3 things to consider (not necessarily negative but things you really need to be aware of before you buy. # 1 the games are larger download size so....#2 your gonna need lots of storage space. You will eat through that 1tb hard drive a lot quicker than you might think! (If you want to have more than 5-10 games loaded up at once than you are going to have to buy and external hd. Ive had great success with the Seagate Xbox Licensed product line. They have 1-8tb hhd drive (maybe a 12tb in that line now I dont remember)in the standard (cheapest and largest capacity models) or they have 500gb-2tb in their Solid State Drive (SSD) (fastest and will make any xbox or xbox one X run much much faster-they are much much more expensive and are on the smaller side. You buy the solid state for the speed! #2 know your internet pricier and If you play a lot you better watch your data cap or get an unlimited one. Our house hold will easily go well over a 1 terabyte of data on any given month. #3 The 4k is beautiful but is your tv even 4k? You wont have to upgrade your tv but your not really utilizing the biggest feature of the X, it's 4k graphics if you dont have a 4k tv. Inside this bundle: 1 month free xbox live gold, 1 month free xbox game pass, 1 month free EA access Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order (Don't use any of these prior to your best buy 15 day return expiring or they wont take the Xbox back or they will hit you with fees) A little about the game. This is not a full review. I have only played it about 3 hours because if having to hold on to the code because the return policy. Also I am a huge Destiny player and main that game so I spend the majority of my playtime on Destiny 2 currently. I game at least 5 days a week around 6 hours give or take per day. That being said, if you love Star Wars (fanboys unite) and happen to play video games then you will love this game. It feels like its straight from the current cannon and feels like a movie that you can interact with and has a video game woven into it. If you are a huge gamer and happen to like Star Wars I feel like you could get a slight touch of dissapointment. This game is no Star Wars Battlefront or the Force unleashed. Like I said this is a movie/cut scene heavy playable cinematic piece. It is very fun and I enjoyed it immensely for the few hours that I've played so far. ( I'm a huge gamer that happens to love Star Wars. The graphics are great it feels like the current Star Wars Canon and the gameplay isn't broken ( at times I can feel a little awkward or clunky but majority of the time is pretty reasonable) my brother came in the room when I started it and does all which Star Wars are you watching so like I said Graphics sound content if you like Star Wars don't pass it up.! Wait! What about the new xbox coming out soon? If you are on the fence about the next gen console hes what I would tell you. Do a little research of your own. But from what I heard so far, Microsoft claims that there will be a. Smooth transition durring and after the launch of the Series X. You will be able do play almost all the games even with freinds that run out and buy one on day one. So not a huge rush unless you want to. Personally Im gonna wait for the first price drop or at least the first model change ( make sure the launch consoles aren't bricking or burning down houses early on). Personally as much as I play this buy will easily be worth it. Thanks

I purchased this for my husband for his birthday ( had to hide it for 2weeks) & oh man this was one of the best gifts ever. It was very simple to hook up. Overall, the price was excellent! The system itself is outstanding! He's very much enjoying his new toy. I would definitely recommend this.

I bought this for me to enjoy playing in my spare down time now that I am retired.

Purchased this game for my grandson...didn't know whether to get the XBOX or PLAYSTATION console. Read review after review and finally decided to get the XBOX... I think I made a good choice because my grandson loves it and his mom. I got the XBOX One X, and the games are awesome..the picture is very clear...the graphics are amazing! I purchased this game a month now and its used EVERYDAY...sometimes I play too at my grandsons request! I must say, I do enjoy playing. I would definitely recommend this game...its worth the money. I did catch the sale price..that helped too in making my decision to purchase. Some of the games are challenging which makes it more exciting to play to get to the next level.

My day one finally ,died, of course during the pandemic aaarrrggg. Best buy surely stepped up with the curbside pick up and i got this sweet xbox in under 40 minutes, (includes drive time ), Way better than my day one the processor is way faster and being 4k compatible a plus, this thing rocks ,no more cod lag ,and the graphics are 100 % better , xbox 10 is just around the corner ,but i may wAit for the bugs to be fixed before i jump on the bandwagon. Im loving this version just fine.

The One X is significantly smaller than the VCR launch edition and runs so much quieter and quicker. The new Star Wars game is awesome, combat is fun, story is engaging, and looks beautiful. It’s nice to try out game pass as well, there are an abundance of choices of games to try, largely indies, some triple A’s, but but ones I probably wouldn’t have tried on their own. All around a fantastic bundle at $300.

The console is defiantly a huge step up compared to its elder, the 1st generation Xbox One. To this date, the console is still fast, smooth, and powerful and will still be THAT system for years to come! It’s small lightweight shape is able to fit into small cubbies or smaller places on a desk.

I’m new to gaming consoles but this thing seems to be a beast. I used to play things like Doom on a PC but man this is way better. It’s pretty easy to figure things out so we were up and running in day one. I highly recommend this system, a wide variety of games and ample power.

I already owed the original (fat) Xbox one so I am very familiar with the system and how it works. This review is geared more towards the One X itself. Man, this thing is a beast with its power. It is much snappier than my original Xbox One and the few games like Forza Horizon 4 that I've played look amazing on my Samsung 4k UHD. That was my main selling point when I decided to pick it up. Price dropped to 299, comes with a 4k blu Ray player (Sony where ya at on that), strong internals, no more power brick and more future proof while I wait for Scarlet to release and get bugs worked out.

Coming from a first generation Xbox One to the One X is quiet literally a flawless transition, so with that said all the usual things Xbox owners have experienced in the past and have grown to love about Microsofts flagship console all apply here and are to be expected when purchasing this console.. but the true difference in this unit is what's on the inside! As soon as you boot up the system it rewards you with a crisp load up screen and reminds you of the technological advancements Microsoft has implemented to make the Xbox One X a totally emersive experience.. From playing my favorite familiar games, to diving into Jedi Fallen Order it is clear to see that seeing is believing! And the clearity of a 4k picture trump's all when it comes to gaming. Games I've played for years now look new and fresh; i.e more detailed and rich, with further draw distances and quicker loading times on maps, and making new Triple A games showstoppers! Altogether the One X is a true pleasure to own, and breathes new life into the term "gaming." Graphics aside the improvements to the consoles fit finish and controller are to be noted out of the box, a more solid and "made with appreciation feel" come to mind when holding the unit for the first time. In all I'm impressed and more than happy with my purchase. A side note - !Purchaser Be Warned! This unit undoubtedly looks the best when coupled with a 4k television! BUT will function just as well without one ..at the sacrifice of some detail on screen.. regardless the purchasing of this unit will guarantee to be a worth it one if you appreciate crisp details, true emersion, faster load times, and or if you are a 4k fanatic! It's a true step forward in gaming and worth the extra cost!

I've had a Xbox 360 for the last decade and have enjoyed using it, mainly over the last six years to play streaming wargame. Unfortunately, I got a message last month telling me that their support for the 360 was ending in July. So, I had to decide to either wait around until the Christmas season to see about getting the new Xbox Series X (which no guarantee that my game would be supported even then), losing all sorts of time in Xbox Gold and Premium account time in my game, switching over to the Sony's PS4 or going with the Xbox One system. The problem with Xbox One was that I couldn't find an Xbox One X for sale at a reasonable price just about anywhere, mainly because folks had bought them up when the kids got sent home from school during the virus emergency. All that was available was the Xbox One S, which appeared to me to be a lower-powered system. Finally, Best Buy got the Xbox One X with a 1T drive at a fairly reasonable price and, getting a price break because of my Rewards membership made it a bit more affordable, I went ahead and ordered it. Just a few days after purchasing the system and picking it up, the price dropped $100, so I got a credit, making the deal that much better. Hooking the Xbox One X to my TV at home was simple and straightforward. Getting it to hook up to my network was also pretty easy--getting it to hook up to my Microsoft account wasn't quite as easy. I finally got it figured out however, and got things running. Now, games I had previously downloaded to my 360 didn't all transfer over, mainly only a late Halo game and apparently not all 360 games have compatibility with the X system. I'm not a big gamer, frankly, and I still have the 360 hooked up if I want to play the older games if I want to. My favorite game downloaded on-line and looks very good in the updated graphics with 4k and HDR on the X, much better than the 360. The Xbox controller that came with the system feels well built and solid and, so far, no issues with it. I haven't downloaded a lot of other apps at this point from the Microsoft store; the few I have seem to work pretty well. I have my own DVD player at home that works well with my Samsung 4k TV, but I read on-line that, unlike the 360, the X requires an app to be downloaded to run DVDs and that most of the folks who'd tried it didn't much care for it. Since most of my TV watching these days is by streaming through my cable box (so I don't get hit with data caps from my cable provider for outside units), I don't need the DVD player except to run games anyway. So, if you're looking for 8k compatibility and whatever it is that the Series X will be offering and want to wait until the end of the year, don't buy the Xbox One X; it is older tech after all. But most of you probably won't need the Series X when it comes out and won't be able to find a game that'll take advantage of the 8K when it comes out for a while anyway. I think the One X is still pretty good stuff, likely better than the One S, and if you find it on sale and have some Rewards points to use, it'll be worth it for a few more years at least. My system came with a code for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which I've downloaded. It looks really good, but I've only played it once. Other codes were for Xbox Live (which is a trial period and I'm not all that interested in it at this point) and SiriusXM (which I already have and can't take advantage of) and a free month of Xbox Gold (which I did make use of).

If your fan is making a grinding noise, send it back. Got a refund, ordered another one and I’m happy to say it’s whisper quiet. The only thing you should really hear is the mass quantity of air being moved through this thing. Back of the box feels like a hair dryer when running 4K but this is normal. Microsoft has been putting out some really impressive hardware in recent years and this is no exception. Witcher 3 in 4K is a great upgrade. Halo 5 feels like it was made to be in 4K. 360 games in 4K are a real stand out feature. Red dead in 4K is a game changer. Halo 3 in 4K is pretty amazing as well.

Got it on sale for $299.99 for a corona virus past time. I'm an old guy at 61.5 years but wanted to play online with my son on the other side of USA (to keep in touch). It take a bit for us seniors to learn some basic concepts of controller use but it's a computer use friendly system overall! The Star Wars Jedi game has neat graphics and is impressive. Gotta admit I like sports games more...Doom is a blast but I have a lifetime of about 3 secs with that game. Short fun is better than no fun at all! Overall, no brainer good buy for those of us hunkered down. The games like Far Cry sort of seems a little too realistic for the times (I do want to try the Pandemic game!)...but hey..corona virus is where we are so why not good a good gaming system? Xbox X fits that bill!

I purchased this game system for my kids for Christmas. Best Buy guaranteed delivery by Dec. 24th. Item was delivered on December 26th.. item took 4 days to travel 1 hour from Best Buy’s shipping department. Called to complain and everyone was pointing the finger at each other for the delayed delivery. Don’t let Best Buy be the grinch for your kids Christmas.. Don’t order online. This game system is awesome and was worth the wait. The graphics are amazing and it plays Blu-ray movies in 4K.. The kids can’t stop playing it...

Let me start by saying I have all three consoles now, PS4 Pro, Switch and now an Xbox One X, I love them all equally, the Xbox works as expected, with the system update the menus are smooth and way smoother than the last time I had an Xbox one. The picture in game looks amazing. Really surprised they could get true 4K out of something that’s not $800 plus but they did it, I have the Star Wars game for my PS4 pro and XBOXONE X and it looks much better on the X. Definitely a good buy especially for the $350 price tag

For price and performance to ease if use. Thus has everything i could ever want. I do pc ganing and own a ps4 pro but the xbox one x is a 4k gaming beast. Games, visuals, movies, controller. Evrything works. Hooking up an extetnal media drive was simple and even the external 5tb drive i added for more games was easy to setup. At $299.00 with jedi fallen order it was the best deal. A real no Brainer. Just get it. You can thank me later. Oh cones with xbix game pass gold and ea subs included.

I've had an original Xbox One for years, and since I got a 4k capable TV I've always wanted the upgrade. When it went on the $100 off sale, I jumped on the opportunity. Perfect bundle, came with Xbox Game Pass and a month of Live. Great console so far, bundle with a 2TB Western Digital HDD and you have a good amount of storage for many games. Get it now if you're considering, unless you're saving for the Series X. Either way, make sure you have a 4k compatible TV for the best gameplay.

The console is terrific, and I really only wanted to knock off a half-star for the fact the Jedi: Fallen Order game is not a disc as the photo implies, but a digital code. It was easy enough to use and download the game, but I do miss physical media and manuals that tell you how the controls work. Otherwise, my problems were minor, and may have been more my fault than the console: some difficulty getting the wireless controller to pair initially (but it's been fine since), some issues with the way Microsoft handles changing accounts from the 360 to the One. Summary: it's an amazing console, UHD Discs look incredible, and 4K gaming is gorgeous!

A lot of different in loading games. I usually am the first one to appear online am get to playing while I watch the others loading. With the older one, I never saw this at all so I guess that I was always last. Graphics are better by far especially if the game is written to take advantage of the card. Once I set it up it picked up my 4K tv and asked if I wanted to use it. It also does 3D which I discovered in the settings. So far it has exceeded my expectations.

My son's Xbox one was getting old. The storage was always full and one of the usb ports wasn't functioning properly, so for Christmas he got an upgrade to this system. Even I can see the graphics are a step up. They are beautiful. The storage room is great, especially useful with the Game Pass. And the Jedi game starts off slow but builds up and it's pretty cool. Haven't had any technical problems and the switchover was easy.
