Customer Ratings & Reviews

I dont have much to say but I will say that this is a great console. Being able to play at 120 frames is great(this depends on the monitor you have). Another that's cool about this console is that it has quick resume which great if you were on lets say YouTube for example. If you go back to the game you were playing before, you'll see on the top right it says quick resume and the game will be at where you last had it as long as you dont close the game.

The graphics are great, and it runs super fast. I love playing old and new games with Game Pass. It's quiet and smooth, making gaming fun. It's a bit big, but worth it for the power. Highly recommend!

I've only been playing for a few days so far, but the games look beautiful, a huge leap from my Xbox One. Loads are super fast if not non-existent. It takes less than 30 seconds from turning the system on to playing, which is really nice. So far the 1Tb storage is holding the games that I want to currently play from Game Pass. This was a concern of mine, that the HDD wouldn't be enough, but I'm pleasantly surprise with how many games I can get in there. Easy process to set up the new system, when you already have an Xbox account ready to go.

It is a great generation to be a gamer. Whichever current gen console you pick, you will be in for a world of spectacular gaming experience and premium entertainment. It seems to me that the advantage the series X has with its raw compute power, the PS5 makes up for with its revolutionary custom SSD. It all came down to which console gives me the most value. And I chose Series X for the following reasons: Game Pass: The huge library of games available with this subscription is enough to keep most players busy till true current gen games for the Xbox begin to surface. There are some titles in there that are worth playing if you missed them in the last gen - like Nier: Automata which I am currently playing. Backwards compatibility – Extended to games that date back to the first Xbox console. I hear some creative people are even extending this feature to PS2 games. Quick Resume – Awesome feature. Very good for those moments when life interrupts your gaming at points in a game where it cannot be saved. Spatial Sound: Dolby Atmos that works not only for games and disc movies, but in streaming apps like Disney+ as well. Also, I appreciate that this feature was not restricted to headphones, as I was able to use my existing home theatre setup to listen to the rich Atmos sound mixing in Forza Horizon 4. VRR: I do not have variable refresh rate display now. Still good to know I have a console that will support the feature when I eventually get one. Down the road I may pick up the PS5 for their exclusives, and control pad experience.

Killer gaming system, its the most powerful gaming system on the market. Just make sure you get the Seagate 1 TB external card with it.. Also, GAMEPASS rocks... i also, picked up the Sony 50'' 4K Dolby 2.1 with the latest Sony Sound bar..

One of my fav console am always been a xbox person but the performance is amazing the controllers are also really good to use the storage for some people can not be enough but for me its perfect plus i add a storage drive of 1 tb and since i got it everything is been amazing i havent got a problem i really recommend you to buy it totally worth it and when ever you enter a game it runs perfect and loads pretty quick.

Apart from the bulkiness of this console , graphics is great and smooth

I’ve always been a fan of Microsoft but they really out done themselves with the graphics with this generation of Xbox. I upgraded from the show one x I'm never going back! Haven’t had any issues and it doesn’t make my bedroom stuffy and hot while running. I definitely recommend getting the SD Card for extra space!

It’s the best ever, and I’m a veteran gamer. It’s about all I can do these days ( officer veteran and retired sheriff ). I served most of my life protecting people and I loved doing it. I’ve had over 20 surgeries and I’m 47, I still hope to have another 47 or more to game. I love Microsoft, Xbox, etc. I paired mine with the exclusive Seagate Expansion Card. I can build computers, this series is just amazing, the best, I can’t wait for an exclusive console like a Diablo 4 one?!!! Microsoft, please get ahold of me, I’d be willing to test your games, products, consoles, etc. I’ve been gaming since the 70s!

Love the fast loading times and all my games look great. Audio is also improved. New controller is great too. Definitely worth the upgrade from last gen. DO NOT BUY FROM A SCALPER. Just wait till it comes back stock. Not worth paying the premium In my opinion. I know it might be on the top of little Timmys Christmas list but trust me it will be better for everyone if you don't pay resale. And you might be scammed in the end . Best buy curbside was easy and less stressful than ordering online. You risk losing or damaging during shipping. Bought one for my coworker from Target and it came damaged and late.

I’ve been very impressed with the Xbox Series X. The setup was quick and easy, and the console runs extremely fast with virtually no loading times. Games look incredible in 4K, and the performance is smooth, even in demanding titles. The controller feels comfortable, and the Quick Resume feature makes switching between games effortless.

Got my hands on the current gen Xbox Series X during the Prime Day deal and have had a great experience so far. Fast loading times, instant swapping between games, and high quality graphics. The controller is comfortable and pretty snappy as well. All around, a good experience so far.

I recently upgraded from a Gears of War edition Xbox One S to an Xbox Series X, and the difference is remarkable. The transition to the Series X was a long-awaited Christmas gift, and it's been an incredible journey. The integration with my 4k TV has taken my gaming experience to a whole new level, offering stunning visuals and an immersive experience. One of the highlights of the Series X is its performance. The console runs smoothly, and the loading times are significantly reduced, making gaming more enjoyable and less interrupted. Pairs great with my Elite Controller Series 2. I also invested in the 2TB expansion card, which was a great decision. It provides ample storage space, allowing me to keep all my favorite games readily accessible. However, the cost of the expansion card is a point of contention. While it's a valuable addition, I do wish there were more affordable options available. Overall, the Xbox Series X has lived up to my expectations and then some. It's a significant upgrade from the Xbox One S, and I'm extremely happy with my purchase. For anyone considering making the jump, it's definitely worth it, especially if you have a 4k TV to pair it with. Just be prepared for the additional cost if you're planning to expand the storage.

Had the One X before this and despite that console also being 4K capable, the Series X blows it out of the water. The graphics are noticeably better, and the load times are incredibly fast. It is relatively quiet as well. Transferring to the new console could not have been any easier, and all my games from the last console were waiting to be downloaded in upgraded versions, which was pretty great. If I had one nitpicking complaint it’d be the aesthetic design-the thing looks horrible in my media stand-but that doesn’t bother me particularly.

Quiet, cool, and fast... graphics are fluid and the wireless controller is comfortable and responsive...no problems yet... if you have the mean, I recommend.

Another hit by Microsoft. The latest Next-Gen Xbox console is a beast of a powerhouse. To get the full benefit of this wonderful machine, plug it into a 4k or UHD TV. Mine is in a 65" Samsung. Graphics are incredible. Boot up speed in lightening fast. It is bigger than the Xbox 1 and Xbox 1x. Boy not too big I did sit mine horizontal instead of vertical. Less chance of it getting knocked over. Plus, it fits better where I wanted it to go. But it can go either way as there are plenty of vents to cool of the console.

TLDR: worth the money, will likely run future games great and look great for the next 6 years, SSD is wicked fast but is also small and needs more memory, puts out A LOT of heat. Fantastic console. Big heads up... IT PUTS OUT A LOT OF HEAT! Pros: •Super fast and powerful gaming system, •Super quiet even when running games at 4K 60fps, •Same operating system as the Xbox One line so everything is backwards compatible, •Memory is a SSD so load times are extremely fast for most games (for reference: Skyrim load times are so short I can’t finish reading a single sentence on the loading screens). •ray tracing is amazing and makes a world of difference. •FPS is usually locked at what you want it to be in most scenarios so I don’t really notice frame rate drops that often. •performance rivals gaming computers (desktops) in the $1200 range. •will likely be able to have no problems running the next 5-8 years of advancements in gaming and graphics while still looking amazing which is the main reason I dropped the $500. •upgraded WiFi card in the console so download speeds aren’t capped at 80mbps anymore (I downloaded a 16gb update in 8 minutes at 230mbps when I pay for a 300mbps plan and my roommate is playing his Xbox at the same time.) CONS: •puts out A LOT of heat... like similar to a space heater (do not even think about putting the console in an entertainment system or shelf unless you cut holes in the back where the intakes are and give the exhaust at least 8” of clearance and angled so the exhaust is pointed a little away (like 10-15 degrees) from the shelf. Not a problem if it is standing upright on top of something with nothing above it or blocking the vents.) •it uses the old operating system so it doesn’t feel new unless you use the dynamic moving backgrounds for the Home Screen. •a lot of games are still not optimized/don’t take full advantage of the new hardware and technology so quick resume, high frame rates, and 4K are not available on a lot of games (but that’s an issue with Microsoft and the other games, not with the console). •it has a 1 terabyte SSD which isn’t a lot of space for modern day and future games, so either buckle down and buy the 1tb SSD expansion card for $200 or use a cheaper hard drive but forfeit the amazing loading times and other features. (A terabyte is about 1000 gigabytes, and after the operating system you only have ~840gb free. New games are usually around 50-110 gigabytes and they’re just going to get larger). •distracts me from studying and is making it hard to finish my Pre-med degree with a good gpa lol

Best console. Next gen graphics, expandable storage, game pass, quick resume. The Microsoft ecosystem is the best in gaming and only getting better. Took one star off because there really is no reason to upgrade to next gen yet, but if you can afford it it’s a must buy. In a year from now when more next gen games are available it will be a 5 start experience.

To be 100%. I upgraded if you would say from an Xbox One X. From last gen to this gen I was say I'm the most disappointed because I feel like I got nothing except for a faster machine with better graphics but don't get me wrong I love the performance and graphics now I can take full advantage of my way too expensive TV. But going from playing call of duty vengeance on the One X and now on the series X the only difference is speed performance and graphics which is what it was meant for. I'm in my late 40s I've been an Xbox fan since the Xbox I even had the internet adapter and all of that that did absolutely nothing but I had to have it. I stood in line for 14 hours to buy the Xbox 360 in 05' And I proceeded to buy Three of them. I've proceeded to purchase every generation after that. Previously in the prior generation releases it was a totally different console and different game that did not play on the previous generation console. So what I'm saying is that it's just an upgraded console and the games are optimized for the new console I understand the games are now going to be produced and the standard format for the new console which makes common sense. But don't get me wrong I did purchase it and I do love it and I do use it every single day and I'm using it right now watching YouTube. It allows me to utilize my way too expensive TV and all of the great picture quality graphics I'm old give me a break. Lol I love it. I'm just a tad disappointed that it wasn't the same kind of totally different console it was just like a upgraded console that can now play games of with better graphics and performance. That's all I'm done. I don't even know why you read this you know you want one you just can't get one I was lucky. Keep trying I was addicted I looked everyday probably 10 times a day reading articles that had updated availabilities if you want it you'll put in the time and the effort and you'll get one. And do not buy one off of eBay for any market because you can get one no matter a fact after I got mine from Best buy I got an offer from GameStop I had to turn down. Keep trying Good luck. A.k.a.
