    This is my first ever Xbox console, and I gotta say I'm not disappointed. Bought it for Starfield exclusively, but some of the things I like are the feel of the Xbox controller, the clean UI and just the overall smoothness browing through the system and loading games are quick. Probably the most underrated thing about it is it how extremely silent the console is when playing games, I love and appreciate that!

    Gaming is not a problem. Nor is processing and video quality. Pretty flexible system as well. I almost gave it 4 stars due to some apps being clunky, almost feeling like they were not made for the system. If you can look past that, like I do, then buy with confidence. Recommend well-ventilated setup as it can heat up. But with good flow, no issues. Use canned air to remove dust from time to time.

    I’m not a professional reviewer but here’s my experience. The Series X is a step up. The UI is very responsive and looks great. I have played a few games on it so far. I played through Dark Souls remastered and Dead Space 2 and they worked flawlessly and it seems the load times have shortened. I’ve also been playing Destiny 2. The update for Destiny 2 makes the game look stunning and run so smoothly. I have played the COD Cold War campaign which also looks fantastic. So far I have not experienced any issues with the console while playing games, or at any time for that matter. I’ve put it through some 4-6 hour gaming sessions without a hitch. I also use Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ and have not had any issues. I am using a Samsung Q70R tv and and haven’t noticed any visual issues. I am very pleased with the Series X and highly recommend it.

    Gamepass is a game changer for this generation. So many titles to play! Load times are really fast, and graphics are as beautiful as ever. Really quiet (I have it laid on its side). The fan does push out a lot of heat though so regardless of where you put it just make sure that it has good airflow.

    Future proofed myself with the Series X. Coming from the One X, there is a noticeable performance increase. Loading times and frame rate most notable. Graphics are improved over the One X, but don't expect it to be as big of a lead as with previous generations. Wait a year to truly see what this fridge can do.

    I am a self-declared Sony Fanboy, but sometimes I want to enjoy Halo or some other Xbox classic. Also, Microsoft has purchased Bethesda and Activision. I use Game Pass and play so many games for seemingly free on this thing. It's awesome. It is also my Assassin's Creed device--I don't play the series that much any more, but I have them all on Xbox.

    The Xbox Series X while hard to get ahold of is worth trying to get. The SSD helps with extremely fast load times and storage is easily expandable via the slot in the back. It runs quiet and is very simple to setup and use. One of the best purchases you can make.

    Okay so I have ps5 and this. I play the hell out of the ps5 because of the exclusive titles. However, the Xbox is just a more powerful system. Things just feel better on it and the features are far better... 1- currently hooked up to a gaming monitor, it supports 1440 at 120fps(nice library that supports it). Ps5 does not support 1440 and currently only COD does 120fps 2- features Dolby vision. Ps5 does not 3- better design and fits in my entertainment center, while the ps5 oddly sits off to the side because it's just too big. 4- it's more user friendly and you can actually search games that support 60+ fps and 120fps and much more. Ps5 does not. I have Witcher 3 on both and Xbox had a performance mode (in game) that blows the ps5 out of the water. It's more like pc gaming. BUT! The exclusive titles for xbox are just garbage. Minus Gears of War. But even that gets a little boring at times (part 4 and 5, the other ones are amazing). If you want the best performance, Xbox rocks, however, you will definitely have more fun with the PS5.

    The best next-gen has to offer

    This is by far the best of the next Gen consoles. I own a PS 5 it is not bad, but was clearly rushed out the door by Sony. The Xbox Series X ist a clean design and looks good in any home theatre setup. The hardware is better than the PS 5 on a component for component level. It is quieter than the PS 5 when running at full 4K game performance. It supports the latest video and Audio Standarads that the PS 5 just simply does not at this time. So if you are a cutting edge person and have Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos sound then there is no other choice than the Series X. Combined with Game Pass there simply is no better offer on the market at this time other than this console. The back half of 2021 and moving forward are going to be chock full of exclusive titles that are all included with Game Pass. For less than the cost of two PS 5 games you can have a full catalogue of games at your disposal at the highest visual fidelity available on any console. Really a no brainer...

    I had the Xbox One and One S, This thing is so so much faster, like the load times for games are easily 10x faster than the Xbox one. The graphics are amazing, I have owned every Xbox so far. This is by far the biggest upgrade and will keep me on the Xbox platform.

    A Great System Made Better With GamePass

    I have not owned an Xbox console in a number of years, but I decided to pick this one up to get more use of my GamePass (I was playing on PC, but my PC could not hold very many games at once). Getting it set up and going was very easy, and all of my data from PC transferred to the console without any trouble. I personally love the quick resume feature that lets me pick up a game right where I left off. Especially when combined with GamePass this is a great gaming system that can offer a ton of entertainment.

    The overall arrival of the console was good, there weren’t any pieces misplaced or taken. The outside of the box did have a bit of a bump, but it didn’t ruin the items it was holding. Picking up the product was quick and easy, while the person handling it was easy to talk to and a lot of fun. I can see myself ordering from this Best Buy in case I need any other products in the future. As for the item itself, it is a major upgrade in performance compared to its predecessors, as I have found no problems using it. The overall feel of the controller is comfortable, holding one feels great and better than the past controllers. One thing to note about is the graphics capability, as it also relies on you having a good source to play through it. To really experience the graphics you must make sure to get a 4K resolution screen.

    I have an xbox, ps5 and switch 2 and out of the consoles this one runs games the best and just feels better. From game graphics to better quick start and a better less annoying hub i prefer to use this as my main game console. However the price increase from Microsoft is some Bullish, its hard for me to tell people get this over ps5 or switch with a worse price point and not as great exclusives. The one other it had going for it was gamepass and they messed that up with prices too :/

    I wish I had more time to play games. I had a PS4 before this and game load times were a drag. This console has the best features I have ever experienced. I wish there were more games that leveraged the technology this thing has... this thing has been out for a few years and we have yet to really experience it. Quick Resume is so good but it does crash from time to time. Loading times are nothing compared to earlier consoles. My three gripes the storage expandability options and the fact it took us this long to get solid state storage solutions in gaming consoles. 1TB is too small. One more thing to note... the form factor. Very convenient size fits just about anywhere.

    I was fortunate enough to get this during preorders and am loving it so far. The hardware itself if very impressive and with the right TV and game, the difference between this and the Xbox One X is very clear. I've even enjoyed playing some last gen games with improved graphics and virtually no load times. I don't love the grainy texture of the controller but I got an Elite Series 2 controller and fell in love with that. Would have been nice to see more games at release but I can be patient. I still find myself playing it more than the PS5 I finally got after 3 months of trying... partially because of the Elite Series 2 controller. No regrets.

    We recently purchased an Xbox Series X from Best Buy, for our son and we're very pleased with both the buying and delivery experience. The ordering process was straightforward, the product description was accurate, and checkout was smooth. Delivery was prompt and well-communicated, with clear tracking updates throughout the process. The Xbox Series X arrived on time, securely packaged, and in perfect condition. Setup was quick, and the console performs exactly as expected—fast load times, excellent graphics, and a smooth overall gaming experience. This purchase met our expectations from start to finish, and we appreciate Best Buy’s reliability and professionalism. We would confidently recommend Best Buy for major electronics purchases and will continue shopping with them in the future.
