    Had it for 2 weeks and I am having to send it into Microsoft/ XBox to get it fixed. It will not download games/glitching all the time when playing/freezes up. Lot of money for two weeks of playtime and now I have to send it in for Microsoft to fix Would not recommend.

    We attempted to exchange this gaming system because it wasn’t working properly. We were told they would only replace it was an Xbox S due to limited stock available for the Xbox X. We had to contact Xbox and have it repaired ourselves. Best Buy has really let their customers down. We tried to find this product in November and it was out of stock in our entire state! Finally found this me in December and it needed repairs even though it was a new system.

    Don't bother buying this paper weight. We bought two of them. The controllers constantly disconnect. We've tried updating everything. We've made sure there was no interference. Tried other controllers, etc. It's possessed! Not even usable half of the time and forget trying to play multiplayer online because you can't compete head to head when your controller cycles its connection.

    While the idea of Xbox All Access is awesome it is horribly and very poorly executed picking up my new Series X from best buy was no problem but lord help you when you go try and pay on your loan for your system whatever company it is that Microsoft contracted with makes it near impossible to pay your bill unless you set up Auto Pay

    I am sure this is not normal, but the HDMI port went out within days of its first use. Bought 2 at the same time and the other one is just fine.

    Order process and pickup went through smooth under Best Buy’s. Unfortunately, the system bricked 1 hour into game play after 6 hours of data download.

    Purchased the Xbox Series X with the Game Pass because it was the only way to purchase one. The Controller kept disconnecting. Took it back to BB and they said buy another Controller because they couldn’t exchange it due to not have a replacement. Bought another Controller and it did the same thing. I never activated the Game Pass and was out the cost. Received a refund for the Xbox and Warranty.
