Customer Ratings & Reviews

Loved upgrading from the Xbox one. I still wear through the controllers too often as they develop the stick drift. I also do not find the quick resume to be helpful when playing online games. I have to stop the game for it to properly reconnect to the servers. I bought this one for the optical drive, but I really didn’t need anything more than the series s specs.

Working just as it should 2 years in and sees frequent use. Hoping it lasts another 2+ years

Xbox has continued to listen to it's fans and this console is the latest in a number of moves to position it as the industry leader. Super fast load times, better graphics, and an amazing library thanks to gamepass make this a great console to own now and in the future. Pros: - Super fast load times. Coming from an Xbox One S the difference is incredible. - Smoother gameplay, menus, everything - Last generation games are consistently being optimized - Console has a cool design and 4K Blu-ray player. It can work vertically or horizontal. Cons: - While xbox continues to optimize last generation games there is still a lack of exclusives. Gamepass and multiple free-to-play games such Apex Legends help as I already have too many games to play, but it would be nice to have games to be as excited about as Spiderman or God of War. - Console is large. While I like the design and shape it doesn't fit in my entertainment center upright (vertical) so I have to lay it on its side which I don't like the look of quite as much. Overall I'm very excited to own this console. This console release feels a bit odd due to the shortage of consoles and "different" leap forward compared to past launches but so far the next generation is looking very promising.

This is a good console better graphics better quality i like the simple design very straight forward desin

So far so good! This console feels like a GREAT addition to the lineup of already great Xbox consoles improving the overall experience by focusing on games and new features like a quick resume, and very quick loading through their SSD in a fairly compact design. GAME PASS also allows you to join the Microsoft gaming ecosystem at a very affordable price with no downside other than your games backlog might grow even more. The controller is a very subtle improvement from the previous-gen controller though the differences can be felt once they are compared side by side. A plus with the controller as well, if you don't like the changes they made you can literally use the previous-gen controller no problem. This philosophy is also seen in how game data like your saves and upgraded versions of your games are ported to this console. This meaning you can pretty much start right where you left off if you owned a game on the Xbox before you will be able to play it on this console. Now at the time of this review, the only knock on the console is you won't be finding any Xbox exclusives that are tied only to this console. But other than that this console is a quick and easy way to have video games ready to be plaed in your living room or bedroom set up.

I have a ps5, i have to say xbox knocked it out of the park on series x, game pass is a awesome, I've owed ever xbox console in rhe past, but this is a beast, couldn't be happier, xbox for life,the console runs cool and quiet, don't wait get one

An upgrade from my Best Buy XBOX One purchased from 2014 with both subtle and noticeable graphic presentation detail. Even games with Dolby Vision compatibility looks more detail. The bundle package with Game Pass Ultimate introduce me to a big library games including Forza 5 and Microsoft Flight Simulator.

The Xbox Series X runs smoothly, loads fast, and delivers sharp visuals. Game Pass adds a lot of value. It’s a strong, reliable console.

Wonderful, I’m surprised it honestly competes with my computer. Love the 4k and 2k options along with HDR options. Let’s me get the most out of my 4k TV

After all these years, PlayStation is the superior console, but I still got love for Xbox

The new xbox has been great we love playing the games and the graphics are amazing.

Current Gen (2023,) "Top of The Line" console gaming; That sums up the experience of the Series X. I have been a gaming enthusiast for over 20 years, Upgrading my console level systems right along the way. I upgraded from the One X to the the Series X and I'll say this I wished I jumped to the Series X sooner! Everything the One X tried to accomplish the Series does with ease and better, even on my now 8 year old 4k TV the fidelity, the sound, the performance and the emersion is unmatched. The only better performer than a Series X right now is a dedicated gaming PC for much more $$$, hands down this is the total package for the price bar none!

Been using it since i bought it, its been amazing quality and gaming has been awesome. Replaced my old Xbox original one with this series xbox best decision ever

Mg husband has been begging for one of these and got him one as a gift. Literally the best out of all the xboxes.

This is a great console!!!!! Xbox has done it again.

Outstanding product! I’ve had many Best Buy products and will continue to purchase there.

This system is a huge step up from the previous generation xbox for many reasons. - Super quiet even after longer gaming sessions: the installed fan does a great job during play and also quickly cools the system down after longer gaming sessions - Note: Some reports surfaced of "smoke" from the fan and have been proved false. There is no smoke coming from the top of the device. - Load times are amazing: system startup is clean and fast, load times to start a game are fast, and load times within games are exponentially faster than the Xbox One. - Graphics are fantastic on an HD or other TV, but are dramatically improved when connecting to a 4k TV (and connecting to a 4k TV is system recognized and asks if you would like to update settings with one simple click) - Large power supply box and plug are a thing of the past: The power chord and HDMI chord included are streamlined and system setup is a breeze - Connecting an Xbox One controller or new Series X controller is fast and efficient. If the controller needs an update the system recognizes and then in one click the install is installed - The design of the system and the controller are a positive as well. The device itself is sleek, clean, and doesn't distract from any room design.

I was holding out on getting a next gen console for the Series X but they are near impossible to get aside from scalpers. My son was coming to visit from college so I decided to pick one of these up as it was available and it would give him something to do while I was working. Setting it up was very seamless and fast. I have gigabit internet so everything downloaded nicely. I was leery about the performance of the console but it performed very quickly. The system worked with all of my digital content and so we downloaded some of my games including old 360 games and I have to say that the load times on those was about non existent. This thing is FAST! Games like Forza Horizons were improved just by the load times. Of course the latest gen games look good as well. I am keeping my Xbox One X and this until I can actually get a Series X at a good price as I prefer 4K gaming but this isn't a bad stop gap until then

I was excited for the Xbox Series X for a long time, but it has somehow managed to exceed my expectations. The overall speed of the system is incredible: comes up from fast boot in 1 second basically, UI is very fast now and able to what I need easily and Quick Resume is incredible (can bring up AC: Valhalla to my exact stopping point in about 6 seconds). Playing games at 60 FPS such as AC: Valahalla is really great, and the 120 FPS on games such as Gears 5 multiplayer, Ori and the Will of the Wisps and Dirt 5 is amazing too. The controller managed to really surprise me, as they somehow took the best feeling controller out there and perfected it. The input latency on the controller has definitely been improved, as everything that I have played just feels more responsive and smooth when controlling. The Xbox backwards compatibility is unmatched too, and it is awesome to see games like Sekiro be able to play at pretty much locked 60 FPS now. And of course the 'Auto HDR' feature is cool for games that never supported HDR such as OG Xbox Fusion Frenzy on Game Pass that looks great. Finally, this console enables the real star of the show in Xbox Game Pass to shine because the countless games that keep coming look and play so awesome on here.

I really enjoy playing video games and this console will do just that. The sound and the graphics of the games are awesome. Multiplayer games are a plus to play with people you know or just go online and have fun. I like that you can have all of your streaming services on the console as well. This is an easy to use console just take care of it.
