Customer Ratings & Reviews

Upgrading from an original Xbox One has been a fantastic experience. MUCH faster loading and the faster frame rates, extra detail, and effects on cross-gen games is awesome. Can't wait for true next-gen games to see what it can really do! Only issue has been heat building up in my entertainment center, so I bought a small, quiet USB fan to help vent the cabinet and that took care of the problem.

Love the graphics not the price. I cant understand why this was the price it is considering sony has release a newer generation and Microsoft clearly isnt concerned about customer retention

It's as advertised works great fun times... although they are starting to nickel and dime for everything pay for Xbox Live pay for Game Pass raise all the prices it's like they don't have enough money

This system is awesome. It’s fast, quiet, and easy to set up. Comes with everything you need too!

Being able to finally buy an Xbox for my birthday was awesome! I’ve been an Xbox fan since like 2014. The staff at Best Buy were very helpful and the store looked very clean. Definitely will shop here again.

There is a lack of exclusives but overall the speed, the ease of use and the design all make this a must own console.

We upgraded from the old version and our loving it. The graphics are amazing.

Easy to setup, fun to play. Unit is very tall and hard to place on a shelf though. get hot too.

Little tip for people having trouble finding a console in stock in 2022.. Apply for financing thru Citizens bank and Best Buy. You have to pay for 3 years of Xbox live with it, so it totals around 800 dollars, but its worth it.. Only 35 a month or so with 0% financing, and you get one in a cpl days.. Very cool with amazing graphics.. Mainly bought to play 4K DVDs @120fps on my Sony OLED.. Also plays movies in Atmos..

This is the best next gen console out there hands down and I have both meaning ps5. Console is super quiet and dont get really hot unlike my ps5. Also great that it has so much memory and just higher specs than the ps5. Dont know why everyone feels like ps5 is better because it's not. Do yourself a favor and get this console it wont disappoint and the games that u can get for free with only a little monthly fee is CRAZY...so many of them to choose from I'm going crazy...lol.

This a a great console upgrade over the last generation! Whisper quiet, super fast Wi-Fi downloads over Wi-Fi 6 instantly boot up 5 games with zero load time. One of the biggest things I don’t really see people mention is how the Series X console resolution always hits true 4k x2160 where the ps5 usually sits under it @ x1900. Add in smart delivery where it works on any Xbox console and you have a very very nice package @ only 499.99!!!

My Xbox One sat in dust for a long time as I switched to PS4 to play their exclusives. Then I got the switch as I waited, temporarily gave up on next-gen, then got lucky and bought the first one I could, which was this. Wow, how happy I am it worked out that way! Performance is fantastic, and I have it paired to a 4K projector that only goes up to 60 Hz, not a TV that could actually do 120 Hz. Loading times are far less a headache with the SSD. The controller is much improved and doesn't creak and groan like the original Xbox controller did during use. It has better grip and quality overall. Otherwise mostly similar to before in design. Also, the OG Xbox controllers will work with it! Games? Backward compatible to original Xbox games, for one. Also, access to Game Pass allowing first day access to tons of games. I did the Live Gold conversion trick and got 3 years of Ultimate for the cost of one. I honestly could just not buy any more games for 3 years and be fine, still have a backlog, as when the Xbox exclusives start cranking out they will be playable by me on day 1. I'm not a fan boy and will most likely get a PS5 at some point, but I'm in much less of a hurry now. I'd like to get a second of these as a gift for my sis and have a gaming buddy. She has an OG Xbox One as well which is painful now by comparison except for some lower-demand games. Family sharing and she can be playing co-op on any other Xbox for free. Xbox is doing a lot of things right. Free quality upgrades to most games. Easy cloud saves for when you switch between devices or come back to a game after even years. This is Xbox's turn to be consumer friendly - hope it lasts a good while.

The Xbox Series X is an odd console to review. It’s certainly great in performance with support for 4K 120Hz HDR and improves performance of all games new and old, but as of now it lacks that “wow” factor that really makes it stand out compared to the older Xbox One X. I’ll admit I originally wanted the PS5 but settled for the Xbox due to lack of supply, but when I say that I mean it in terms of innovation, such as how the PS5’s new controller makes games more immersive with it’s dynamic triggers and rumble motors and a lineup of games both current and speculative based on the studios Sony has that just seem more fun. Looking back at Xbox’s history, there aren’t many unique games and franchises that I can think of; Halo, Gears of War, and Forza are the only major ones that I cared for, and even then those were all basically the same game. Fortunately it seems that Microsoft might actually care about delivering on exclusives this time around with its many studio acquisitions.

It’s Xbox they know what they’re doing. Fantastic speed, graphics is phenomenal, I have a PlayStation 5 and I love it for the exclusives but as far as performance Xbox wins. Not saying PlayStation isn’t better… it’s just slight differences that I notice in gaming performance

Fast load times, graphics are excellent. Love the feel of the new controller. Overall very happy with the system.

Great to have and play! Can't wait for the future of Xbox.

Alright. This thing is amazeballs! I can't wait til more titles get released, because the lack of launch titles is the only negative right now. But the games that have been optomized for it, they are gorgeous! Speed is awesome, titles boot up super quickly, joy pretty much flows to my eyeballs from the moment the little x lights up :-) I have played the ps5 as well, and honestly - they are both great. I like the xbox controllers more, and can't wait for halo infinite.

All I can say is that it's lived up to the hype. Super fast load times, unbelievable graphics and quiet as can be.

This was a nice upgrade. It’s very fast and has a sleek look.

Great graphics and easy to set up. Kids love it and parents do too
