Customer Ratings & Reviews

Im only just getting started but this is my first new system since PS3 and first XBOX since the original. Obviously thisbis a major upgrade over those in graphics, load times, overall smoothness of gameplay. My only knock and I know this is consistent among new platforms, but when you first load a disc expect it to take 30 min to an hour to load onto the system and do any updating. A small price to pay for modern gaming. I instantly bought Halo Master Cheif collection and Fallout 4, so I’ll be set until the new college football (hopefully) comes out!

The Series X is a vast improvement over the One X. Load times are super fast and the graphical improvements are noticeable. Older games suffer from less jitter and draw in and titles that have been enhanced specifically for Series X are even better. Destiny 2 at a solid 60fps is fantastic.

I recently picked up the black 1TB Xbox Series X for my partner and he is absolutely loving it! The performance is top-notch. The games load incredibly fast, everything runs smoothly, and the visuals are stunning. The storage capacity is perfect for his needs, and the sleek black design looks great in his setup.

I upgraded from the og Xbox one and this thing delivers. Fast load times and great graphics are a huge difference. Quick resume is one of the coolest next gen features. Being able to switch between games or boot up the system to the same spot o was playing at before almost instantly is insane.

Load times are short, can have multiple games idle for you to be able to hop between them, games look great, and gamepass absolutely rocks. Would recommend this console.

Great system, super quiet while running. I love the ease of adding additional storage. I'm glad they kept the UI the same. Faster load times, amazing graphics. I wish the base stand came off because I have to have mine on it's side. Now all we need are great games coming to Xbox.

Best game console I’ve played on by far! No lag, No overheating and it even looks amazing! Graphics is nice and clear on every game and has high frame rate

I have owned every single PlayStation since the original, so this is my first real foray into the Xbox world. I couldn’t decide between the Xbox and PS5, so I wound up getting both. The Xbox controller has always been my least favorite part about it, but it feels like they’ve trimmed it down so it feels better in my hands. I also like the overall look of the console. Some say it’s too basic. I like the look. I have yet to play any discs on it, but I’ve taken advantage of the insane number of awesome games in the Game Pass Ultimate library. If you can’t decide on which console to get, do some research on Game Pass. If you want even just a handful of the games in the collection, its a no brainer. And don’t forget Halo Inifinite is scheduled for release later in 2021.

So i bought one just to play Starfield. Currently waiting on release day but i signed up for game pass to check out some games while waiting. So far Ive been very impressed with the cloud streaming. Being able to just browse games and check them out no download needed is awesome. I played fallout 4 just streaming and had zero issues. Looked great and nothing glitched. To be streaming a game of that size in 4k without having to download to the hard drive blew my mind. Ive only owned playstation for the past 10+ years but gotta say xbox are doing something right here. Wouldnt have bought if Starfield was released on playstion so thank you Bethesda. It Just Works

I am very happy with this purchase. It is a great console and meets all my expectations.

Finally got my hands on one and couldn’t be happier... wasn’t crazy about the design before release but when in person it’s pretty cool to look at. The quick resume feature is cool on the games that allow it, great graphics and it’s easy to set up. I’m really looking forward to new games.

I love the gameplay graphics and how fast games load. I have not experienced any lagging. Definitely recommend to a gamer

I wish I had more time to play games. I had a PS4 before this and game load times were a drag. This console has the best features I have ever experienced. I wish there were more games that leveraged the technology this thing has... this thing has been out for a few years and we have yet to really experience it. Quick Resume is so good but it does crash from time to time. Loading times are nothing compared to earlier consoles. My three gripes the storage expandability options and the fact it took us this long to get solid state storage solutions in gaming consoles. 1TB is too small. One more thing to note... the form factor. Very convenient size fits just about anywhere.

Easy to set up. Graphics look great. New controller feels and plays great. Does give off plenty of heat on top. Be careful where you position or place it. Allow adequate ventilation. I have temperature regulation fans in my tv console stand to ensure this and highly recommend one.

For sure the upgrade I needed. Load times on last gen games are instant, and runs most games better. I would recommend a newer tv so you can get the most out of the machine. If you don't have a 4k tv you wont see much of a graphical improvement. The controller is very similar to the xbox one controller, the share button is nice, and the grip is better on the back and triggers, but the best improvement so far is the d-pad. The best part of this new console compared to its competitor is the backwards compatibility with xbox, xbox 360, and xbox one games. As a bonus if you pay to unlock developer mode on the xbox (check youtube) you can even play emulated games as well including playstation 2, gamecube, etc. Overall an upgrade much needed. Only con is that it needs more next gen games, but thats what happens with most new consoles, needs a year or two to really see the true power. Only con at the moment is purchasing one, it took me a month, but bestbuy hooked me up.

What I can say. I was lucky enough to get one during one of Bestbuy's refreshes. First off, big thanks to Bestbuy for even allowing folks to get one. I appreciate them not allowing bots to just scope up all the inventory unlike Walmart and Target. As for the console, it reminds me of a subwoofer. It definitely does not look like the previous Xbox One X and it definitely runs faster. I love the 1TB SSD. Load times and performance are very noticeably faster. I brought this version so I could have the 4K Blu-ray player. In terms of gameplay, it seems to run cooler and does not make as much noise. The UI seems more refined. The cool thing is that a lot of Xbox One games get an enhanced feel and you can tell. All in all, despite the price, it is an upgrade. Hopefully, we will start seeing some real 8K content. I actually upgraded my smart TV just for this console alone. With 4K smart TVs going down in price, you will need one to really appreciate this console.

The Xbox Series X is a powerful console with stunning 4K graphics and fast load times thanks to its 1TB SSD. The sleek Carbon Black design looks great in any setup. With Xbox Game Pass, you have access to a huge library of games, and it’s backward compatible with many older titles. The user-friendly interface and comfortable controller enhance the experience. Overall, it’s an excellent choice for gamers.

I absolutely love the Xbox Series X. I've owned every Xbox console since Microsoft got into the video game business with the original Xbox console and this one is almost perfect. While a simple design, the console looks very clean and a nice addition to my collection of electronics used in the living room. The load time is incredibly fast and a much-appreciated upgrade from the previous consoles from earlier generations. The new controller is a slight upgrade from the controller on the Xbox One and very comfortable to play with. My two favorite things about the new Xbox Series X are the availability and performance of GamePass on it and the backward compatibility of games from previous systems. You can play on it almost every native Xbox One game, currently 568 Xbox 360 games, and 39 original Xbox games. I'm definitely glad I bought this system so early in the new generation period and highly recommend it to anyone who loves to play video games.

The speed alone won’t make you want to go back to the previous generation of consoles. A week playing will be enough to spoil you. Also, the quick resume feature is a very a nice addition and the updated controller rounds out an all around great package.

This thing is super fast and is a brick of a console! When I first unpacked this thing, it was huge compared to every other gaming console I’ve purchased. The load times for games is quick thanks to the SSD and the graphics, even on my TV that doesn’t support HDR, are fantastic.
