Customer Ratings & Reviews

Having been an xbox fan since the original, I have to say I'm not disappointed. Since there aren't any "New" games built around this system, I can only comment on current games....specifically, Assassin's creed Valhalla. The greatest improvement in this game is the load times. On the One S, it seemed like forever when the system had to load from the start screen or between waypoints. Now, it's under 10 seconds. Transfering between games is lightening fast and the "quick resume" feature is fantastic. Graphically, things just seem to "pop" out of the screen more and the movement is much smoother. My only gripe with the system is the internal storage space. I have an external drive that connects but if you want to play a "series x" version of a game, it must be installed on the internal drive. You can store it externally, but it won't play until you transfer it to the internal. Of course, there is an add on external drive that acts as the internal, but it's ridiculously expensive so I wouldn't recommend it. Final gripe, it took a long time to redownload all of my content from the One S to the new system....I'm talking hours. Overall, I love the system and cannot wait until the new Forza comes out to really see what this system can do.

I absolutely love this console! While initially I wanted the PS5 for the exclusives (and still do) I was able to snag a Xbox Series X and boy was I not disappointed! Not only is game pass ultimate worth every penny (and works for PC gaming as well!) but this machine is way more powerful than I expected. I paired it with a Sony 55" 900h and I was blown away!

Very fast very sleek very expensive but in the end it’s all worth it

Great gaming system. Easy to set up and start playing.

Very good console. Awesome, new updates, good graphics. Extremely recommend.

My son and I love the great graphics and variety of games available!

I own both a Series S and a Series X. Both are great consoles, though I was a bit underwhelmed by how disappointing the performance has been for a lot of games on the series S. We were generally promised 1440p 60fps for series S games, and native 4k 60 fps for the series X. Since the series S hasn't been very well optimized, most games run at 30 fps or 60 with an upscaled 1080p. Since buying a series X I have had no issues with performance, and it's also incredibly quiet. Both PlayStation and Xbox seem to really be lacking on exclusives right now, so if you're between getting either, I'd recommend picking up a series X for gamepass alone.

Love the graphics and is super nice for all the ages my son love it

Had bought a series S before this because I couldn’t get a X, now that I’ve gotten it, it’s way better than the S(playing on a 4k 120hz tv). Loving the power that the series X produces, I’m actually liking it more than my PS5. But have to wait for more next gen exclusives to drop to really see what this thing can do!

One of the best Xbox series x ever made extremely fast games and app start in seconds the console don't over heat if you stream and play any game ECT I recommend this to all people

Love the speed! The graphics are amazing. No lag during play at all!

Great gaming system. Graphics are exceptional and no lag. Did replace controller.

Xbox is a capable gaming console. Purchased it two years ago already and works like day one.

Best console I’ve ever used! I myself have had an Xbox 360, a Xbox one s, and was able to get the series x. I love it! I always tell people that they should enjoy the Xbox or at least give it a couple of plays before judging it based on enjoying a different console. The Xbox is so sleek, extremely fast when loading games, looks great on my stand!

Very good console. It meets expectations and beyond.

Does what it’s supposed to do! Much needed upgrade from XB1.

The kids love playing the game with their father and friends

Been an Xbox guy since the OG XBOX. Super fast load times, and looks gorgeous on optimized games. I cannot wait till TVs that can actually support HDMI 2.1 and 120fps drop down in price and become common. Also, the lack of first party games for it is disappointing. Right now it’s good but once you can take advantage of its full potential, it’ll be awesome.

Works perfect, great graphics and speed. I love mine

Getting straight to the cons, the achilles heel of this console against the PS5 in terms of desirability is the lack of platform exclusives because of how many titles it shares with PC, but this is also this console's strength against the PS5. It has the equivalent performance of specs of a 2080 Super Ryzen 7 3700x gaming desktop, which many know is a factor of times more expensive than the Series X, which also means this console is spec'd to perform nearly 20% better than the PS5 in equivalent titles. The console's form factor is also much more compact and sensible than that of the PS5, which I think people underestimate too much when picking between consoles because even if you get lucky enough to get one of these it still has to fit wherever you need it to, which the PS5 definitely cannot do as well as the XSX. Lastly and most importantly, the XSX is much, much easier to find in stock and at MSRP at local retailers than the PS5, at least currently. Based on my local store's stats if you are checking each day of the weekend for a month you should be able to get your hands on one within a few weeks, which is very doable and convenient relatively.
