Customer Ratings & Reviews

This review is based solely on the quality of the product and not based on how hard it was to get one (the fault of MS and retailers) or the fact that some games have a few issues (the fault of MS for handing out dev kits late and developers being lazy). It is also based on the games I have personally played on the machine. Design wise, the system is fairly large though not comically so as many memes make it out to be. It needs plenty of space regardless due to components of the system producing plenty of heat. It can be placed on its side or left standing upright (which I recommend). The design itself is simple enough. Air intake vents are located on the bottom and is blown out through the top. Both sets of vents are fairly large to better facilitate airflow. This, however, means the area around the console needs to be kept clean and relatively dust free. The system so far runs very quietly even while playing games at 4k 60fps. This may change later when games made to specifically for the Series S/X are released. Games stored on the internal SSD have very low load times, with some having almost no load times at all. Textures load instantly so pop in is virtually eliminated. Every game ran on it has HDR applied to it, including games that previously did not support it. The games I've played so far also seem to be upscaled to what I assume is 4K and virtually all games run at at least 60fps. This includes games with a resolution mode that sacrifices fps for the sake of graphics. All of this is done by the console itself though optimization patches from developers could easily refine these enhancements. A few games have had graphical issues (Fallout 4's fire and smoke effects are broken) but I chalk that up to differences in hardware between the One and the Series S/X that will hopefully be corrected as developers make optimization patches. The only other issue I have encountered so far is sometimes the console becomes unable to find my wifi hotspots when it wakes up from power saving mode. Hopefully this is a software/driver issue and not hardware related. Time will tell when it comes to any other issues. Overall I am happy with my purchase and would highly recommend this console to any gamer. I wish it was cheaper but considering how much power both the Series X and the PS5 have $499 is still cheaper than a comparable PC or laptop.

Everything about this console is amazing. I’m enjoying every game I play, old and new.

Love this console!! It upgraded my gaming experience immensely. 10/10 would recommend.

Really enjoying the series X so far. Much faster loading speeds than previous models.

Can not believe the difference in performance with the new XBOX! Excellent!! Love it!

Overall this system is very good. I do have one complaint. The entire setup is a money pit. They do not offer nearly enough storage that comes with these systems and you’re forced to purchase multiple external storage options or multiple expansion cards. If you don’t mind having to transfer games back and forth before and after playing them then I’d recommend going with the cheaper external expansion drives. If you’re like me and want to just download the game once and play it without having to transfer files around then I’d recommend going with the storage expansion card. They’re are significantly more expensive for the storage size though. The external storage drives are about $30 cheaper for 4x the storage but they’re not as convenient as the expansion cards. Takes about 10-15 min to transfer all the files over to the system before you can play. Also have to make sure the required space is even available. Can be a headache.

Awesome product. Why cant i use the giftcard you all sent me to buy xbox points?

I have this and the PlayStation 5. I prefer the Xbox hardware wise and the PlayStation for its software and first party games. My PS5 has the notorious UFO nidec fan and makes an audible ufo like sound which isn’t loud but is annoying when the room is quiet. Where as my Xbox is whisper quiet I literally can’t hear the fan even if I put my face up against it and this is playing a game after a couple hours. Although I noticed the Xbox does get a lot hotter in its exhaust than the ps5. The Xbox is also smaller which is a plus but I prefer the look of the ps5. As for the software I feel like the ps5 has a more premium feeling UI and the first party games are definitely better. Also iv had less stuttering and crashes on the ps5 while on the Xbox I sometimes get stuttering in certain situations and a few times games wouldn’t load. I also like the DualSense controller a lot better. It feels way more high quality and has a lot more features. However the backwards compatibility is definitely an improvement for the Xbox as you can play all your old Xbox 360 games and sometimes with resolution and fps improvements.

It's great and has all the newest games I want to play. It runs fast and gaming in 4k is awesome, the only downside is how hot it makes the room.

Great system! Xbox never disappoints. Game pass on this is great.

This XBOX series X is so much better than the Xbox one i previously owned.

Great product, grandson thinks it’s the best thing ever

Really happy with my purchase, definitely what I was looking for in a gaming system

Its an Xbox do i really have to say much? Its works likes its supposed to.

Great customer service .. Online order walk in and out in 5 min

Gaming on a console is the easiest way too play games. If you are a computer Wiz a pc could be your thing. I like to put the game in and play. Not to have to worry about a program conflicts that you get with a pc.
