Customer Ratings & Reviews

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!

The Xbox Series X is a powerful console with stunning 4K graphics and fast load times thanks to its 1TB SSD. The sleek Carbon Black design looks great in any setup. With Xbox Game Pass, you have access to a huge library of games, and it’s backward compatible with many older titles. The user-friendly interface and comfortable controller enhance the experience. Overall, it’s an excellent choice for gamers.

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.

My son loves his console can’t get enough of it every time he does good in the game comes so happy to tell me about it. Love this

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.

great consule i have two in my home i would recommand for all ages

Very amazing program with the xbox all access I had been trying for months to score a console with no luck. I decided the all access looked like a pretty good deal, I instantly got approved and exactly a week later got my Xbox series x I just had to show my ID at best but and that’s it Super easy and no stress.I already have a ps5 but Microsoft is starting to buy out a lot of game developing companies and it’s going to have some very good exclusive games so I felt like it’s time have both so I can experience everything the gaming industry has to offer and with graphics and speeds like high end PCs I see no need to have a PC just for gaming the consoles are literally just built to do that and run them with top performance and solid 120 FPS. Now the Xbox series x is a lot slower with loading times with disc installs or digital installs by 20+ mins or more also, loading games up takes longer but overall with the amount of games with game pass it is well worth having to wait a little longer to play/download games. 5 stars because it was so easy to get with the Xbox all access and it’s a solid console just not quite as good as a ps5

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.

I ordered it, they delivered it. What more could I ask for? Haven't played the darn thing as it is an Xmas gift.

Love it! Use it almost every other day before and after work!

It took a whole year but thank god for all access program and much better deal with games. Will save me a ton and my son can still have online so win win for both microsoft and me. My son even has a travel bag, he loves this thing. The graphics are bad butt and amazing deff a big difference from me and my sega days

Excellent. My son loved it. Haven’t seen him in days lol

I heard a great deal about this console and I was thinking about if I should purchase it or not but then I was able to see some of the games that a friend was playing on his X series console and they looked incredible. So I decided to get this console and I couldn’t be happier. I think you won’t regret getting this great machine.

Full Disclosure: I have been a Playstation Fan since PS1. The Xbox Series X is my first experience with Xbox. I know there will be learning curves with a new platform, so I'm not going to how those against them. The controller is comfortable and fairly easy to transition to from PS4 (the D-Pad location has actually been the hardest part for me to get used to, I thought the stick location would have been). The system runs alright, but I get studder is some games sometimes and they aren't new even high-end or new games. I don't know if it is a problem with the Game developer's port of the game or with the Xbox. Xbox Game Pass is very well managed and worth every penny, though xCloud gaming leaves a lot to be desired, especially when compared to Stadia's performance. What I dislike the most about Xbox Series X is the UI. It is difficult to manage and organize things. Finding the settings or even Apps I need can be a challenge. You can organize games and apps into Groups, which helps, but the interface just isn't that user friendly. Considering Microsoft keeps making Windows more User Friendly, I expected more ease of use out of the Xbox UI. I don't like their proprietary storage that is outrageously priced, which is why I went with the X instead of the S. If I bought a 1TB storage stick for the S, it would then had spent as buying the Series X. The availability of Xbox is one of the main reasons I gave them a try. While I don't regret my purchase, I'm still not completely sold on the Xbox ecosystem. When PS5s become more readily available, I'll probably get one.

System runs great! Got my new Xbox with game pass included so two years of the latest games. However I’m kinda disappointed about the lack of storage on the hard drive. It’s less then a TB and fills up fast! The guide button on the controller sticks, which can cause some issues.

System works great, setup was very easy. I would recommend this to all

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”

This is a great Xbox! Our son is truly enjoying having it for all his gaming needs!!

Moved Up From The Xbox One X to a Xbox S Series Then Finally The Xbox X Series. Not a Lot of Difference Between The Xbox One X and Xbox X Series. Slightly Better Graphics and Slightly Faster Download Speeds. Huge Difference Between The Xbox S Series and Xbox X Series. S Series Was Slower Than My Xbox One X.

We bought this for my son and he loves it. He was wanting to play the newer games and could not on the One X. So far no problems and the high refresh rate in 4k is nice!!
