Customer Ratings & Reviews

It was pricey but it's a great console and with gamepass you will never have to look for things to play

Use it everyday, the performance is insane. Much better than the last model, and the space it has is really good for holding more than one game

Love it! Great Christmas gift! And came just in time for the holidays!

I was looking to upgrade my gaming platform and always a fan of XBOX. The storage is an added bonus.

Fast, quiet, and powerful. A nice upgrade from the last gen. Got the All Access plan that comes with 2 years of Game Pass, which has literally hundreds of awesome titles to check out. Whole family loves it.

Awesome Xbox! Easy to set up and get playing! Great customer service by Best Buy!

Works great, super satisfied with the quality of service and speed of delivery

I used to play on a Xbox One S before I switched to the Xbox Series X. First things first, the quality and gameplay are a massive upgrade compared to the One S, everything feels smoother. Loading into a game is way faster, maybe 90% faster. I also noticed that my download speeds match my WiFi plan. I have a 500 mbps plan but on the S I would get around 250 whereas the X gives me around 450. Not sure if it’s just my console but my friend also had the same problem. Now to the cons you could say. The X is big so if your old console is in an area with little vertical height, good luck. I was going to put it where my old S went horizontally but it was to big. Another thing is that when you switch to the X, your games become X|S compatible, in order to achieve better load times and gameplay. The issue is that they have to be in the internal storage. Meaning your external storage device is almost completely unless. Now there are some games like Ark that can be played in the external storage but most games require internal storage to be playable. A semi work around would be to just transfer the games back and forth between the two storages has that’s much faster then uninstalling and reinstalling. My honest advice is if your running the Xbox One, you should think about upgrading but with the S you don’t have to as of right now. I really didn’t need to either but I had some cash saved up and decided to buy it. My S is still operating and in almost top condition. The loading time wasn’t really a deal breaker with my S. I play for my enjoyment, I’m don’t really care as much about the 4k, 120 Hz, and stuff like that. Honestly, I can barely tell the difference. If you made it this far, thank you and I hope you have come to a decision.

Awesome console, especially if you get it when on sale. I am shocked by how much you can do on this console, with emulators being supported by using Dev Mode(which also allows people to develop games without expensive developer hardware), or the hundreds of games Game Pass gives you access to. Not to mention the amazing backwards compatibility it has, supporting all Xbox One games, and almost all Xbox 360 games, which is pretty big for me. Only issue i’ve had is the storage. Although 1TB isn’t insignificant, it fills up super quick with some of the newer games, Call of Duty for example, taking 250GB. The storage expansion sucks on this console unfortunately. Unlike the PS5 where you can simply purchase a normal sized M.2 SSD to expand the storage, here you’re forced to choose ‘licensed’ official memory expansion cards. This wouldn’t be terrible if they didn’t charge significantly more than what they’re worth. 4 years ago the prices of the storage might’ve made sense, but charging $350 for a 2tb SSD in 2024 is criminal, especially when there are no other options.

This Xbox Series X is a gift for my son. His last works well but heard the X is pretty great.

Very Good. Perfect. Recommend. Product top line. Great option

This is a longer review, superb system. Great backward compatibility so far (almost as large or comparable to ps3 backward compatible number of games before last two updates). Microsoft has time and room to improve this system. Most importantly, I love the fact that it has backward compatibility for most of my favorite games. :-) There is a list of games that it works with, somewhere, online. It works with my Hd tv. I hope Microsoft will make it support more backward compatible games like muspell, and kingdom under fire series. Their site says they might acquire more licenses to put more games out for Xbox x. I enjoyed getting free levels and other preorder downloads from free download list under Microsoft store (many of which, are unavailable anywhere else). I got all my games on one 8 terabyte hardrive. The same one that I use with my Xbox one s. (Quite a few with great space for expansion-never fill a hardrive all the way as it can degrade over time). This includes subscription games for Xbox live. Some of the older games even play better in Hd. This is my opinion of the Xbox X. On the downside, I was hoping that a vr system and kinetic sensor would, also, be available later for it at a reasonable price. (Doesn’t seem likely at this time.) Even though, kinetic sensor and games for it on the same hardrive does work on my Xbox one s. It would seem though that the technology seems to be available if Microsoft invests in it. Some vr sets can work in hdmi port. Like a larger screen size than my tv. Larger screen size, better graphics usually. (There is still time for this (for Microsoft to do so) to happen.) It (Xbox x) is supposed to have the greatest graphics on paper. (This requires a 4K tv, 4K hdmi cable-I do not have these, yet, and therefore cannot offer opinion on it (the greatest graphics)). However, hd (on Xbox x) works great on my 5 year old 75 inch tv. It is better graphically on hd than Xbox one s (mortal Kombat x) is. The Xbox x internal hardrive has some space on it. It does not make noises (gears of war character) like themed gears of war Xbox one s. Xbox x runs very quietly. I put some plastic color on it (vinyl wrap) and got a second larger controller for it that fits my hand size better. My Xbox one s controllers (and remotes) do work with the system. I bought it. It works great. It allows me to play games that are from Xbox original, which is cool. It’s newer games are great as well (Devil may cry 5). In comparison, My ps3 could play ps1 and ps2 games (I got backwards compatiblility with it (most of them (even unholy war-I did not do the update that wiped the functionality from most systems))). However it (the ps3) cannot do them in hd like my Xbox x. The my hardrive for ps3 did not go work for ps4 etc. Xbox one s additional hardrive format does work with Xbox X. Graphically, on a Hd tv (Xbox X out competes ps3, sega genesis hd, Xbox one s, my brother Xbox one x, and wii (hd. Cable adapter)), it is comparable to ps4. On a 4K tv at Best Buy (generally), it is much better (but it was a brief test). I haven’t found a second port for cable tv on it yet (I will search for it later (I use Xbox one s as it saves hdmi cable space and can port older systems onto Hd tv -even though these are not hd like backward compatible games on Xbox x are)). Xbox X currently supports a large number of backward compatible games, for video games, from its previous systems with mention that it may expand the range. Security on it is not as cumbersome and is really customizable. Some of the apps are interesting and functional as well. (iTunes library and computer connect etc), Hbo tv, net flix, and Vudu work well. Waiting on final halo game infinity to come out, and test use some of the machines extraordinary computing power that it has on paper. Big points: This is a longer review, than I usually write. :-J Once again, superb system. Great backward compatibility so far (almost as large or comparable to ps3 backward compatible number of games before last two updates that wiped functionality from my brother’s ps3(he(my brother) gave me heads up about it)). Things that would help it most: Microsoft has time and room to improve this gaming system. (Add more older games into hd, provide more free levels and bling to induce customers, add Xbox exclusive vr set system with sensor that can work with the Kinect). Future plans: My family was impressed and intends to get multiple systems (as many as six that is four more) as backups for older systems we have (Xbox original, Xbox 360, Xbox one s, and Xbox one x) and for the family eventual future 4K upgrade. The family is optimistic about Microsoft and system backward compatibility. Also, it (Xbox x) has no problem playing disc media like dvds, Blu-ray, music, and older movies as well. I got a warranty with mine and it has had no issues yet (not caught fire either unlike my microwave (black smoke-manufacturer defect) My brother has no issue with his Xbox x yet either.

Great product, a much needed upgrade over the Playstation unit i had prior. Enjoying the gaming experience.

Great product can’t complain I love the gaming system

Great console. With a great bunch of games. My kids love it so much. Great quality and graphics

Worth the wait. Great graphics. I like the controller as well. Fits nice in the hands. Also great for those chilly winter nights. Just crank up a game and this will soon have you entire room toasty warm!
