Customer Ratings & Reviews

Christmas present…defective. Assuming I willmbe able to swap but still disappointed.

love the new xbox it works great with the new tv we got

I have been trying so hard for the last year to get a Series X. Twice I've had one in my cart here at Best Buy, (but it bombed out both times before I could fully check out). Otherwise, I've checked restocks at every major online retailer every single day since launch with no luck, (they simply sell out instantly). I would even go the All Access route, but I've had no luck there either. :( As someone who struggles with PTSD, video games are one of my outlets, (and one of my windows to still being social with people, since going out in public is difficult for me now). Come on Microsoft, don't leave me hanging. I understand why there are shortages, but I'm eagerly waiting to join the next generation of console gaming. Happy gaming everyone! ;) PS-I'm still giving this the highest rating possible because I know it is an awesome system, and GamePass is without a doubt the best deal in gaming.

This is a Christmas gift for my grandson And he loves it

The thing that really stands out with this incredible console is definitely got to be it’s loading times, it’s graphics, and it’s performance. I have enjoyed using this console and it has just been an amazing experience. Because if it’s small, sleek design, it can basically fit anywhere in your house vertically or upright. Another thing I really love about this console is the fact that it has one terabyte a storage it does run out quick though with the huge space that games nowadays take up like call of duty. But compared to a PS five or a Nintendo switch. This definitely wins in storage. This console is great for any type of gamer, a streamer, laid-back just trying to have fun gamer, or an intense gamer. It is perfect for any of those things. 100% recommend this console.

This is the 2nd Xbox series X we have purchased thru Best Buy. The 1st Xbox X series we purchased and only had for a little over a year so we were unable to get warranty repair. The HDMI connection port went bad and were no longer to use. This time we purchased an additional warranty thru Best Buy. This issue was not Best Buys fault but they have always been excellent in their help and customer service, I recommend purchasing additional warranty thru Best Buy. There is a reason the are called Best But - it is because they are excellent and truly the "Best" for almost any home electronics or anything for that matter.

This is the best console available. Games look and run better on the series x. Xbox consoles are also the only consoles with backwards compatibility where you can play many old games and in many cases it’s the only way legal way of play certain games with the added benefit of some of those games having improvements in graphics/visuals and performance. Quick resume is also a game changer since it allows to seemlessly transition from one game to another without having to boot up the game from scratch, a feature only available on the xbox. Also gamepass, best gaming service available by far(there’s absolutely nothing like it).

Simple yet unique quality build both in the console and controller. Brilliant design for keeping cool (best to keep it upwards standing). Amazing graphics and speed. Absolutely love the UI of Xbox. Just the best console you can get right now in my opinion.

After months and months of research and watching reviews I was honestly hesitant because of I herd some people having issues with this Xbox. Well here’s what I can say about the series x. 1- I had no issues what’s so ever with the system. I did make sure the software was updated to the latest and made sure it was plugged in to the wall not an extension cord. That’s where I think people were having issues with it shutting off because of the system is really powerful. 2- the downloading speeds are amazing. My old Xbox one s took call of duty Cold War 3 hours to download. The series x took 1 hour to download. 3- the quick resume option is a great feature to have. 4- the blue ray player/4K player has incredible performance. After testing it out it looks like an expensive $499 Sony 4K player that how good I think it is the black scenes are what they should be. However I did have to change some of my picture settings on my tv to fully maximize the movies from the Xbox. The only think that I haven’t used yet was the 120hz gaming feature and the 8k because my tv doesn’t support it. In conclusion Microsoft did an amazing job on the system I have nothing but good to say about it. If you are worried about a faulty system don’t be just make sure you plug the Xbox directly in the wall not an extension cord and make sure it’s in the open for air flow as well.

Xbox and Gamepass are the way to go this generation tremendous value you get with Gamepass. Highly recommend anyone who buys an Xbox to get Gamepass 600+ games as of right now more will be coming especially when Activision, Blizzard games start dropping into the service really soon Diablo 4 will be dropping into the service at the end of March Xbox is now the home of Call Of Duty. As for the console great cooling system huge fan so it does not overheat runs extremely quiet . Loads games really fast quick resume is great able to jump in between different games has a customizable UI background home screen. Overall highly recommend Xbox Series X .

I was lucky enough to have snagged an Xbox Series X within the first year, and I have been using mine pretty consistently since. It's quiet when in operation, the loading times for games is super-fast, and when the games are 4K, they can be gorgeous. I have had no problems with the 4K blu ray playback, and the streaming services I use work great. Atmos sound is great when available. Only issue I really have is how they handle the distribution of Xbox Series X game content. Just because you buy physical games doesn't mean it on the disc. Sometimes the game discs are just access keys. Overall, I have no real regrets purchasing this machine, and if you don't mind a mostly digital game library then this is a good quality console.

Sure, only the lucky will actually get Best Buy's page to actually work when stock is available, but for those of us who even paid just a little extra more for this console via scalpers, I have to say it was well worth it. Just like the Xbox One X before it, this console is nothing short of excellent. I have no idea why Sony and Microsoft undercut their consoles for way less than they are worth this time, but it is what it is. I've been playing Cyberpunk 2077 in performance mode on the series X and it runs at mostly 60 fps, with some rare hiccups in framerate. I cannot wait to test other games on this thing, and I cannot wait for Halo 6.... Must buy console. Consoles are interesting these days, because they are becoming more and more powerful, and almost catching up to PC's, but not quite. The reason consoles will never catch up to PC's is because they are designed to be smaller, and more portable. I have a 30-40 pound PC and I will tell you right now it destroys the Xbox Series X and PS5, but it also cost me $3,000 to build. Don't let that deter you from buying one of the new gaming consoles, because they are PERFECT alternatives to enthusiast PC gaming rigs. The Xbox One X and PS4 Pro fell under that category as well, and these new consoles are no different in that regard.

Just got my Xbox series X today, I bought it online November 27th. It’s amazing Xbox really outdid themselves with this one! I suggest getting a nice curved gaming monitor because it’s a HUGE difference but I played it on a non 4K tv also and it’s still great. Best Buy makes you go through a verification process to make the purchase and that helps the dreaded BOTS!

I remember when the Xbox One first came out and I was playing different sports games, everything looks so good, except for player's faces. They looked really similar to reality, but the eyes always were weird. Either to black or to white. Still didn't feel like reality. I now welcome you to the Xbox Series X, the console we ALL needed and wanted. Human faces look insanely realistic. No more dead-eyed looks in characters. When Im playing C.P.2077 and i start talking to someone, i put my controller down as if I'm watching a movie. The smooth movements on the display is unreal. And I'm only playing on 60fps 4K. This badboy can go 120fps on 8K. Quick Start is a gamers dream. I can turn my Xbox on from after day before, pick a game and BAM!. My game is playing from exactly where i stopped it in under 30 seconds. Seriously its that fast. (if your looking for an xbox series x, here's how i did it) -Make a Twitter account, don't personalize it since you'll delete it after you get an xbox. Follow all "xbox series X restock" pages you can. ALL of them. Check it 10 times a day, a XBox drop on every big retailer happens weekly. Good Luck and Happy Gaming Yah"ll

Being a pc builder and having a beast of a desktop for content creation and gaming that's stacked with 16 TB of NVME SSDs, 32 gb of ram and a 2080ti, I swore I was done with console gaming. With Microsoft doing more cross platform options with Game Pass, I didn't feel there was a need to ever biy another console. However, I was able to land a Series X, and when paired with my LG OLED that can handle the 120hz refresh rate at 4K, I am seriously impressed woth this system. It is super fast, it can suspend multiple games for quick resume play, and its just overall fluid and fast. Microsoft has really stepped up thier game after a disastrous launch with the original Xbox One back in 2013. I would highly recommend this to any gamer who also streams and enjoys media through external hard drives. It's a beast of a system.

Gear up for the gaming extravaganza of the century with the Xbox Series X – the console so sleek, it's practically wearing a tuxedo! Picture lightning-speed performance and graphics so sharp, they could cut diamonds (not literally, please don't try). With controllers that fit like a hug from a long-lost friend and enough entertainment options to make your pet goldfish jealous, get ready to embark on a gaming adventure so epic, it'll make your grandma jealous! Welcome to the Xbox Series X – where the fun never takes a coffee break!

The bread box(xbox series x) is the best console there is. I bought starfield with it. i have owned it for 1+month. buying a storage device with this is a great idea.plus the 1 $ game pass in the store. all you have to do is complete rewards and buy the $1.25 thing when you have enough points and then you can buy ultimate every 14 days. after it expires you can rebuy the 1$ every time as of now.

Picked up an Xbox series x and just got it set up this week. Disclaimer I had the series s before. The series s don’t get me wrong is a great little console for the money you pay. However I got a great deal on a series x and have definitely noticed that it just seems to pop more in regards to resolution and video quality. Plus you get 1tb of storage out of the gate If you’ve got a 4K TV that can handle hdr, it definitely looks great. If you don’t have a lot of cash get the series s. But if you’ve got a nice display and have the money it’s a nice upgrade in my opinion

Bought this as a gift for my sister since her XBOX One fried itself after playing the x/s version of the newest Borderlands on it. She said it didnt take long to setup and it downloaded all of her games from the cloud pretty quickly. Definitely playing borderlands now. The only weird thing is that she had a regular external hardrive for the other xbox, which wont let her play her games from on the X, she had to transfer them to the X's internal storage. Im guessing they've got special external storage devices for the X/S...have to research later, but its still a Yas!

Beautiful console true 4k 120hz and its quiet gamepass is excellent truly recommended for anybody that wants to up grade thanks Microsoft
