Customer Ratings & Reviews

I dont have much to say but I will say that this is a great console. Being able to play at 120 frames is great(this depends on the monitor you have). Another that's cool about this console is that it has quick resume which great if you were on lets say YouTube for example. If you go back to the game you were playing before, you'll see on the top right it says quick resume and the game will be at where you last had it as long as you dont close the game.

Perfect just what i was looking for, it had everything and it is easy to use also not to say how it looks

Great graphics, speed, and easy set-up. Have owned several generations of xbox and this is by far the best. The controller is amazing.

Was a bit upset this was the only console I could buy that would play DVDs and hard copies of games because of the price difference. But honestly the performance of the console is on a whole other level and this is one of the best purchases I've ever made...Besides, Xbox should give some kind of trial to game passes for making a $600+ purchase?

Got this for my husband, speed is great, the graphics are great, hubby has no complaints

Definitely a product of the future. I'm more of a PC gamer, but I've always kept up with Xbox. I love the cross platform cloud system and game library. Also, very easy to just turn on for a quick round of COD or Madden. That being said, I've owned the original Xbox One, the One Elite (if yawl remember that), the One S and the One X. Every time I use this console, the load times surprise me. It never gets old. The graphics are top notch. Very impressive system for $500. The expandable storage card was a must for me.

Has all you want out of any Xbox, The disc slot makes playing old 360 games possible, built in 4K dvd player, 4K 120 FPS in Gaming. Love it

Amazing console and awesome customer experience from Best Buy. Only site I was able to legitimately get through and purchase console without being overwhelmed by bots. The console itself is a great quality of life upgrade from the previous generation. Not so much of a revolution as perfecting many of the details from the last gen. Nice design, quick resume of games, fast loading, cool controller, game pass, a lot of attention to detail. Completely silent when running games. Compared to my PS4, which was as loud as a vacuum cleaner running down later titles, this is a big deal to me. Highly recommended, and I appreciate the customer experience from Best Buy.

Happy to say this purchase was totally worth it and my boyfriend is definitely enjoying his xmas gift! Fast with great picture! No complaints!

One of my fav console am always been a xbox person but the performance is amazing the controllers are also really good to use the storage for some people can not be enough but for me its perfect plus i add a storage drive of 1 tb and since i got it everything is been amazing i havent got a problem i really recommend you to buy it totally worth it and when ever you enter a game it runs perfect and loads pretty quick.

Lightning fast load times, beautiful graphics, fun times. Get it on sale if possible, coming from a pc user this thing is a great bang for your buck, paying for online play does stink but you get access to free games. Pretty quiet and blends in pretty much anywhere

I'm really impressed with the Series X and pre-order pickup at Bestbuy. Pickup was scheduled and only took a few minutes. The console itself is amazing. It feels very solid and runs quiet even when under load. New games look great and have additional detail over what you would see on previous gen Xbox One X (which already looked very good). Older games run smoother as well and it was nice to see all other Xbox One and 360 games I own work great. Improved game load times were a plus also. The new controller has a few minor refinements and feels good overall. Only thing missing that I was hoping for was the ability to play Dolby Vision UHD discs.

Powerful! Upgraded from the OG Xbox One (2015); to say the least, this is it, fam. The fan is ever silent, I can't even tell if it's spinning or not, but I'm sure it is. It doesn't get hot at all, even after hours of playing. Aesthetically, at first, I will admit, I found it a little awkward. However, the fact that its dimensions are actually a little less than 12x6x6in^3 (HxLxW), makes the tower design rather pleasing. The updated controller is actually really comfortable to use, too! It's very grippy, and the material used for the body is even used for the bumpers, triggers, AND D-pad. Oh, and also, the updated D-pad design is SUPER satisfying to use, and provides both a great responsive feel and aids in making your button inputs so much more precise. The power brick is finally a thing of the past! However, I'm not sure if the design and hardware engineers were able to integrate a safety feature into the system itself to protect against sudden power loss/surge, so be sure to use a power strip that offers that type of safety feature (just as a precautionary measure to take care of your console). My ONE issue with this console is that you won't actually get the full 1 terabyte (TB) of SSD storage as advertised, which is not surprising. The system software itself is stored into the hard disk and takes up about 222 gigabytes (GBs) of your 1TB (1024GB), so you'll only have 802.0GB of free space left for your games. In this day and age, 802GB is NOT enough for a complete library of games, considering most AAA games now ship around the 50-75GB range, and eventual, future updates for your games only means you will have less and less space for the games you'd want to install onto your local drive. This is unfortunate, but it is the reality. Thankfully, this console is designed to accommodate for expanding your internal storage, so I would highly recommend the purchasing of additional SSD-type storage that is compatible with this Xbox. 1 additional TB of SSD storage should suffice. Please be sure to do further research on the subject before making that purchase. Overall performance, however, is AMAZING. This console provides the best experience in console gaming of this new generation, and the loading times (thanks to the switch from HDD to SSD and better hardware optimization) have been reduced to you barely being even able to open your phone in time to look at Reddit/Twitter, or whatever to pass the time. However, please be sure that you own a TV/monitor that will allow you to take full advantage of this console's performance/graphical capabilities. (More research is required on TV specifications for an optimal experience.) The way Microsoft has handled the launch of this system makes the console extremely consumer-friendly, and you can be sure that you will be getting the best "bang for your buck" by choosing Xbox over its competitors. That being said, although this console is $500, it definitely lives up to its promise, and, to date, I do not feel, nor have I felt, disappointed by my purchase. New gamers will absolutely love this console, and returning gamers can be assured that this machine lives up to the hype. Happy playing!

Its not truly fair to review this as is with no 1st party console exclusives at launch to really show off what it can do- it. Currently 3rd party games like Valhalla, COD and even that mess of a game cyberpunk2077 are performing better on my PS5. Here's where it gets crazy though. Devs didnt have kits for series X nearly as long as they had kits for PS5- so that's expected for the 1st year or so maybe. With the new rdna2 components, and the extra bit of "power" I expect this console to get better with time (and quickly). Gamepass is unbeatable and a fantastic feature if you own and XB but dont subscribe to gamepass idk what's wrong with you. My only real gripe is that It turns itself off from time to time. Valhalla and CoD seem to be the main causes of this. MS has explained this to be a software not a hardware issue. Quick resume is as amazing as it sounds and works just exactly as advertised. the new controllers may look nearly identical to the prior model but they feel different and new in hand. All the small tweaks are welcomed. Series X has by far and away my fave and simplest launch setup process of any console ever. Enough cant be said about the console design. I LOVE the low key look, and no- It isnt a large as it looks In pictures, but it is significantly weightier. I still havent gotten use to the space age alienware PS5 design but the simple XB design looks natural in my living room and doesn't draw the awkward attention the PS5 does. Absolutely great. Fantastic secondary console.

Perfection. New design, ultra fast UI! I'm mad I never considered an SSD for my Xbox one x. But yeah I own Ps5 and this and hands down, in a side by side comparison on a 65" True 4k 120hz tv, Shadows are perfectly detailed, but only slightly less on Ps5.. Audio processor is similar... Load times are slightly faster on Ps5, and truthfully the Ps5 control is more comfortable. But for performance. One example. Cyberpunk 2077 .. crashed 8 times in one hour on Ps5, didn't crash once on Xbox. Also no frames lost on Xbox. Before you judge the xbox PUT IT ON HARDWARE IT WAS BUILT FOR. 4K 120, with N 8k HDMI w/Ethernet!

Bought this for my daughter she is absolutely in love with this X-box. She prefers Xbox while my son prefers PlayStation. There arguments over which is better are funny but over all amazing console. This is our first Xbox and I must say I am impressed with speed, graphics and over all ease of use. Definitely would recommend this console!

My career path has evolved to the point where I want to do as little "IT" management at home as possible. Coming over from the PC crowd I had my reservations about what this little black box could accomplish having grown accustomed to flagship products on the other side. Against all odds, I've found the gaming experience to exceed my expectations. Graphical fidelity, fluid gameplay and ease-of-use make the Xbox Series X a must have for every gamer no matter their title.

Xbox Series X is a great console, I love the ease of the Xbox interface and homepage, I like the friends/followers system they have, not only but the graphics are great and the 1tb gives enough space to have multiple games downloaded and the quick resume feature is great to jump from game to game

Another hit by Microsoft. The latest Next-Gen Xbox console is a beast of a powerhouse. To get the full benefit of this wonderful machine, plug it into a 4k or UHD TV. Mine is in a 65" Samsung. Graphics are incredible. Boot up speed in lightening fast. It is bigger than the Xbox 1 and Xbox 1x. Boy not too big I did sit mine horizontal instead of vertical. Less chance of it getting knocked over. Plus, it fits better where I wanted it to go. But it can go either way as there are plenty of vents to cool of the console.

If you are looking for the best Xbox experience with both normal games and games with the highest graphical fidelity and have a 4k hdr TV this is the console to pick if you can. If your using a 1080p TV the Series S is a great option. The only potential criticism of this console has nothing to do with the Series X its self rather its due to microsoft releasing two separate Xbox consoles at the same time with different specs, this leads many developers to develop their game to Series S specs as opposed to taking advantage of all the Series X power and capability. The result is there are many games who don't truly take advantage of the Series X specs. This issue really started last generation where the xbox released the Xbox One X which had similar issues in that if a game was optimized for it, it was amazing but most games were not. On the playstation side game devs only have to develop to one spec the ps5 which makes it easier for them to optimize for that hardware. Of course this is not a a ps5 review. Overall I am very pleased with the Series X it is a solid console with a great controller and more storage than the series S although I never had storage issues with the series S as long as you have an available internet connection. In the future I would like to see Xbox drop the two console spec approach but really I can't complain. The Series X is simply the best xbox ever created.
