Highest performing console I have ever owned in my life!

Lots of fun for the whole crew! Love that it has real discs still.

Awesome product!! Highly recommended and will buy again.

I bought an Xbox for my boyfriend, and he absolutely loves it! The setup was easy, and it runs smoothly with great graphics. He’s been playing for hours without any issues, and the gaming experience is fantastic. Definitely a great gift—he’s having a blast!

Great graphics and speed! Price not to happy about but ya get what you pay for.

This product works wonderfully. I really enjoy playing my favorite video games.

A great value and gift idea for the holiday for any gamer

This has been a great family system. My 14f & 16f daughters love it and so does their dad. They have been able to play together and it has gotten the kids out of their rooms for a bit more family time. There are games for all of them, even though they all have different tastes.

After a couple of months of trolling Best Buy and *those other retailers*, I finally got one of these bad boys. My review will come from the perspective of upgrading from an Xbox One X rather than a flat review since there are so many of those. I want to talk more about the improvements I paid for rather than the services I already had. Pros 1. Everything loads vastly faster. I load into Destiny 2 faster than even my SSD-toting Xbox One X friends and games like Halo Wars 2 don't even load the full splash screen before it loads the main menu. It's definitely noticeable and it's very pleasant. 2. Games play much more consistently and with fewer frame drops. De-syncs in Halo Wars 2 were a big problem that I don't experience anymore. The only bit of frame dropping I've seen are loading screens on NHL 21 where the music robots out a bit while it's loading into a game. That's it. I have seen zero frame drops elsewhere. 3. Being able to play some games at 60FPS is wonderful. I don't play Destiny 2 on my PC anymore because I get the full FOV and 60FPS game play on a console. Many games still don't support 60FPS, but the ones that don't still get performance improvements as I described above. 4. The controller is better. The D-Pad is more clickly, the controller is more grippy, and the triggers are quieter and smoother. It's not insanely different, but it's more refined than the previous generation. 5. Auto HDR is a thing. It's kinda nice sometimes and, tbh, some games look better with auto HDR than other games do with built-in HDR (game developers haven't figured out HDR yet). 6. 4k/HDR/60FPS on a console is insane. I know, I know "PC with the right build blah blah", but I don't have to price shop Newegg for computer parts on sale and this is easier to set-up. 7. The mini-fridge aesthetic makes it easier to dust and keep clean. Plus, the skins market for this thing is amazing so far. 8. All my old Xbox One peripherals work. My wireless headset, my old controllers, and even my old Microsoft Play'n'Charge kit works in my new Xbox Series X controller. I didn't have to replace any of my existing peripherals to make this work, which I appreciaed. 9. I can still play and voice chat with all my Xbox One friends. 10. As of yet, I have experienced no outstanding issues that aren't already "known issues" by Microsoft (like my controller just stopped being recognized by the Series X and only a reboot fixed it, but MS knows about that and they're investigating). 11. It may be because my Xbox One X was ancient (I bought it on release day), but my Series X is so much quieter that it freaked me out at first. Going to what would usually be a "high fan" activity in a game and hearing nothing was really weird. Neutral 1. I did have to buy a new controller charging cable (USB-A to USB-C). The new controller is USB-C which is great because it's modern. However, many of my old peripherals still use Micro-USB so I bought a four pack of USB-C to Micro-USB adapters from *some other place* so I can use the same cable. It's a very, VERY minor annoyance, but something I wanted to mention. You may have to deal with the switch to USB-C controller connections. It's annoying because it's a change, but it's good because USB-C is better than Micro-USB. Cons 1. It's a box lol. This thing doesn't fit in my entertainment stand whatsoever and sits off on a (very sturdy) side table all on its own like a spoiled brat. That leaves me with an empty entertainment center with a TV on it lol. 2. If my Xbox does run into a problem that they can't fix with a repair at Microsoft, I have no idea how long it'll take a replacement to ship with all of the inventory shortages and issues. That makes me a little nervous as an early adopter, but, ynow, yolo, so I'll stress about it if it actually happens. 3. Finally, I'm a bit apprehensive about the top vent. It's massive and the holes are massive. I am concerned about long term dust issues. I don't want to tear it apart because I don't want to void the warranty, but I've heard that you're not supposed to place it on its side and I'd honestly feel a lot better if I could place this thing on its side. Overall, I love my Series X. This thing is powerful. It feels powerful. The box shape makes it easy to customize. The new controller feels modern and and like a more refined improvement over the previous generation. However, it still delivers that comfortable Xbox One style experience while also still feeling new somehow. Many of my games have FPS bumps and all of my games have performance improvements. I have had only one crash in nearly 2 months of ownership (and it was Destiny 2, which crashes all the time anyway), which isn't any better or worse than my Xbox One X. Compared to the crash issues PS5 owners are experiencing with with how massive an unwieldy the PS5 is, it blows my mind that people say that PS5 won this gen's console war. This thing makes me very happy.

Great console, switch due to wifi issues with the PS5. Never experienced any issues with the Xbox series X

Great product, easy purchase! I would recommend to anyone

Purchased as a Christmas gift, will have one happy kid Christmas morning

Works great, my new favorite console. Shipping was quick!

It's really nice. I've had my xbox one since 2014 so it was time to upgrade.

Works great better than expected. I like the way it was packaged, and the controller is real nice.

It's a great counsel definitely going to keep for years even if a new one come out. This one is still going to compete with any new counsel for years to come.
