Customer Ratings & Reviews

Awesome console, especially if you get it when on sale. I am shocked by how much you can do on this console, with emulators being supported by using Dev Mode(which also allows people to develop games without expensive developer hardware), or the hundreds of games Game Pass gives you access to. Not to mention the amazing backwards compatibility it has, supporting all Xbox One games, and almost all Xbox 360 games, which is pretty big for me. Only issue i’ve had is the storage. Although 1TB isn’t insignificant, it fills up super quick with some of the newer games, Call of Duty for example, taking 250GB. The storage expansion sucks on this console unfortunately. Unlike the PS5 where you can simply purchase a normal sized M.2 SSD to expand the storage, here you’re forced to choose ‘licensed’ official memory expansion cards. This wouldn’t be terrible if they didn’t charge significantly more than what they’re worth. 4 years ago the prices of the storage might’ve made sense, but charging $350 for a 2tb SSD in 2024 is criminal, especially when there are no other options.

great console. Super fast. New controller are amazing. Picture quality output is second to none. Backwards compatible with previous Xbox One games. Definitely worth the upgrade.

The console is amazing and It’s a huge upgrade from last gen. The graphics and loading speed help me enjoy the console a lot more. The Xbox Series X is one of the best things you can own

My son loved it! He says it’s fast, clear, no issues

It's such a powerful system. If you have a 4K 120hz/Dolby Atmos set up, you will definitely enjoy the series X experience

The console is amazing and powerful, if you want the full xbox experience with the best graphics, frame rates and over all performance this is the one to get. It’s not as cost effective as the series s but it allows you to play your games at full capacity with no hiccups (so long as the devs optimize the games) over all I highly recommend it especially for hardcore gamers that want the full and best experience possible on this platform.

A fantastic, next-gen console with the best backward compatibility in the business. That's the biggest difference between a Series X and a PlayStation 5. On PS5, your older PS4 games will work, but there's often zero boost in things like framerate, resolution, etc., unless if the developer has gone back to enable it. Even when they do, it's not as seamless of a transition between the PS4 and PS5 version. Meanwhile, the XSX's Smart Delivery gives you the best possible version of the game that works without any hassle. Just read up on the Cyberpunk 2077 PS4/PS5 fiasco if you want detailed info on the hassles going from a PS4 version of a game to a PS5 version can cause. However, even when it comes to simply play last-gen titles, the XSX handles them best. An example I can give here is Overwatch. I have both the Xbox One and PS4 versions. On XSX, the XB1 version supports 120hz aka 120fps. On PS5, the PS4 version does not support 120fps at all. There are other games where this is the same situation. On top of this, it's nice playing even older gen titles, like Xbox 360 and even original Xbox, with added enhancements like increased FPS and resolution, so again, if this is something you like to do the XSX is your best bet. However, not all is perfect. The Blu-Ray player on the XSX and audio support leave a lot to be desired and the Xbox's operating system is far too complicated for my liking. The audio situation is pretty well-known, but apparently an update at some point removed the Bitstream option so this causes issues with playing Dolby Atmos/Digital even after downloading the recommended Dolby app. Whenever I'm playing a Blu-Ray, the audio that plays is Dolby Digital TrueHD. The player does not say that it is playing Dolby Atmos. Meanwhile, the PS5 does say it is playing Dolby Atmos but that is because it has the option for Bitstream. As far as the operating system goes, it's just too busy. It's relatively easy to understand, but I feel like Microsoft could really learn to simplify and speed up their OS. Aside from those few downsides, this is an excellent system worthy of your time, especially for older gen titles. Can't tell you how fun it has been going back to play titles like Fallout 4 and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic at 60fps.

I got a hold of one of these at launch, and it is fantastic. I have always been an Xbox fan, and I like the backward compatibility with older games. I have a PS4 pro, and Sony has not been that good in this area, but they are getting better too. This is a great console, but if you did not get one, especially if you have an Xbox X, you can probably wait for a few months because it really is not a huge improvement in gaming until you get new games or eventually have a 2.1 HDMI TV ( with new features ), and or a good PC Monitor.

Love my new Xbox. Waited a while to get it and I don’t know why.

Best xbox i have had bar none. Once you go series x there is no going back, this system is fast as hell and quiet as a mouse. Looking forward to many quality gaming sessions.

I've had my Series X for a few months now as I was fortunate to get one during a drop in January. Overall I am pleased with my purchase. It runs games very well and SSD load times are expectedly excellent. Having upgraded from a One X though, I can honestly say that there's not a huge reason to get this at the moment. If you can't find one currently, there's little reason not to wait until (hopefully) supply is more abundant. I am definitely looking forward to seeing what they can do with the power at hand here in the next few years. Finally, be sure to make room where you'll be putting it. It isn't gargantuan, but it is fairly big.

Best Xbox console I’ve ever owned and I’ve had every iteration since the first. It runs absolutely silent, the graphics are phenomenal and the design blends right into my home. I have added an Elite Series 2 controller which is so great.

So glad a decided to switch to xbox. I love the look, the feel, and the overall qualities of this console.

It’s okay, looks nice and has good performance and all. But the amount of games are lacking tbh. I also hate the controller. The buttons feel very cheap, esp the ab/xy ones compared to a PS5 controller. And it having a rechargeable battery is a huge bummer. Using AA batteries in a controller for a $500 console seems cheap. Love the console design though. It s fan of the UI, however. Not enough Xbox exclusives to really make it worth my time, personally. Bought in May 2024 and used it only in December when Indiana jones came out.

Best purchase ive made in a while. I’m 15 and definitely a good purchase. Whatever these bots say are wrong. Nothing is bad with it. Runs faster then a mf and never lags

Incredible system!love the ease of use.graphics are top notch.

The new Xbox series X is a night and day difference compared to my Xbox one. Load times are really short and graphics are surreal.

Was on the edge of PC and series x. All my games etc are already on console so decided to stick with it. Super fast and quiet compared to the one s and x

Purchased for my 14 year old son. He's happy with it and has no complaints. He said there isn't any frame drops, games load quickly, no issues with overheating. System cools quickly.

So far I'm enjoying this console, specifically the app switching, quick load times and improved performance. I'm also subscribed to gamepass so no shortage of games to play on it.
