After Phil Spencer gutted the Xbox One 2 years into the consoles life, I didn’t have a whole lot of high hopes for the platform going forward. I was forced to rethink my decision when I learned they merged EA Access, Xbox Live, and Game Pass PC / Xbox into one product... but that alone wouldn’t have been enough to get me to buy the console, until I got a chance to see the game library of Gamepass Ultimate! Between my gaming PC and my Xbox Series X, I realized that there are roughly 500 games that are free to play with this product and the sale price for 3 months meant I could play for the whole year for just $80 more. So I decided to checkout the console and see what it was made of. After purchasing it through Best Buy and getting it set up, I got to launch the first game and give it a run through. The console is as fast as I ever seen any console run and I’m not just talking about the games. The interface is insanely fast as well and getting from A to B is smooth as melted butter on toast. It’s seriously a beast of a console and I’m very impressed with it so far. In addition to this, they thought of everything with the unit. You set it up with an app and can sync it to other Xbox consoles you’ve had setup in the past. If you need more storage there are 1 TB external drives that you can plug into the specialized slot in the back of the console (these are sold separately). The main analog stick for the left thumb is slightly elevated and I’m not sure if it is for ergonomics or what, but it feels natural after using it. Also, they’ve added a share button to the controller so you can quickly grab a screen shot of the game and share it with social media if you want to link that to you Xbox Account. The console itself is smooth and quiet, and it remains fairly cool under heavy load. With my OLED TV I can achieve 120 Hz gaming and 12 bit color for true Dolby vision HDR support. And it supports Dolby Atomos sound straight from the console. Both of these features are very important for 4K Blu-rays and gaming. One area where the Xbox is ahead is in the number of enhanced titles already available or that have patches in the works. There’s quite a list of titles that will demonstrate the Ray Tracing and power of the machine. Overall this is a very impressive machine and I’m very happy with the purchase.

The Xbox series X is the ideal gaming machine for all ages! Its sleek design will look great anywhere in the house and its still packed with a ton of high end performance! My kids love playing roblox and minecraft and I'm dropping into warzone in the evenings and this thing never misses a beat!

Ok not bad of a system but wish i got the bigger one

Definitely not worth the money I spent!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love the console....xbox quick resume is a game changer. Allows you to switch between like 5 games and go right back to the current spot. Super quiet. I dont know if ive ever heard mine make a sound. The only Con was how i purchased it from BB. They'll probably remove if i go into detail. All i will say if you use the lease option. Pay in the 90 days. Smh

Excellent console, works super fast for all my games and streaming services. Having a disc drive is nice when you need one. And the order online and pickup in store was great. Easy process!

Slick fast an a nice upgrade sets perfect on the table beside light an etc.

I love this Xbox! The design is perfect and it is small so that I can place it by my TV. The Xbox has a lot of games to choose from and it runs the games smoothly and let’s you play with your friends. This Xbox has a lot of storage and you can download a lot of games onto it. It is a great gaming system that runs games with beautiful graphics. I would recommend this to any gamer that is looking to play all the newest games!

Incredible! Performance on this thing is next gen, as to be expected. The chassis is sleek and blends in well to an existing A/V setup. Game Pass elevates the experience to the next level. My precious 4K Blu-rays look incredible on this thing. My only gripe would be that the controller wasn't updated at all and isn't really competitive with Sony's offering, but if we are comparing them that way, then with Game Pass and Bethesda exclusives, I see this thing blowing the PS5 out of the water over time.

During the pandemic, I had bought one of these at my local BestBuy stores after news on my email of a restock occuring same day. I rushed and to my luck there was a couple left in stock. I bring it home and plug it in to my 60" TV that supports 120 fps and there is love at first sight. From the graphics to the supporting system, SSD card space, storage & games they offer compared to the PS5 is unmatchable. If you want a great console, come to bestbuy and get one for yourself You will not regret it, Al

I haven't done much with it so far other than play my digital 360 version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, got it so I would be able to play Grand Theft Auto VI when it is released, but it runs much quieter than the power supply for my Xbox 360 did and the Quick Resume feature saves a bit of time loading a game.

Great speed, performance, and games. Simple accessory setup. I like the social functionality and was surprised I could run other media apps through the system

I was lucky and was able to get a PS5 at launch and got a series X last week as an impulse buy. The xbox is a little nicer in my opinion because ofvthecquick resume feature which oauses or saves 5 games so you can pick up right where you left off with virtually no loading. The audio ob the xbox is a littke better to to a sound processor that you notice if you have a newer compatible sound system but if using your tv speakers you might not notice it. The PS5 has a better controller for sure hands down. A huge feature is If you have gamepass you can play alot of the major titles like halo, MS flight sim, madden etc for the cost of the subscription. This is awesome because I havent bought a game yet. Sure you might want to “own the game” but its not like they really trade in for much anyway and xbox live costs $10 so the extra $5 for game pass is a no brainer.

I have now had each of the Xbox consoles to date and this feels like a leap forward. the speed of loads and operation, the quiet operation, and the upgraded 4k picture make this a leap forward. I only wish with the size of all the titles coming out, that the storage capacity was larger

Great console! Bought over the holidays to play with friends. The 1 TB is nice for people who prefer downloading games from the microsoft store. Would recommend getting an Elite Series 2 controller to pair with the console for those who play more competitively.

I've owned numerous Xbox and PlayStation consoles throughout the years, and this is without a doubt my favorite so far. I prefer it over my PlayStation 5. It offers several features, such as quick resume, 120fps running at all times for all games, and the controller is still the best available. Because I own more titles from the Xbox 360/Xbox One era, it was simple for me to transition to the Series X and continue gaming. I've always liked the idea of having an all-in-one console, so I use it to watch movies and stream TV. Seriously though, best console to date from Xbox!

LOVE LOVE LOVE. I switched from the one to the x and omg. Faster load times. Like I click a game and get right to it. There is even quick resume. Quality is amazing my games look so much better super happy with my purchase. However for the price I wouldve liked even more storage.

The Xbox Series X is a powerhouse console that delivers exceptional performance for gaming enthusiasts. With its lightning-fast load times, stunning 4K visuals, and smooth gameplay at up to 120 FPS, it sets a new standard for console gaming. The backward compatibility is a huge plus, allowing access to a vast library of older Xbox titles. Its sleek, compact design fits seamlessly into any setup. The Game Pass subscription elevates the experience by providing access to a massive library of games. If you're looking for cutting-edge hardware and a rich gaming ecosystem, the Xbox Series X is a top-tier choice.

I bought this as a gift for my son and he loves it. He had an older XBox and was glad to have all of his games and data moved over to his new device without having to start over. He loves this XBOX.

Awesome console, got it as a christmas gift. I upgraded from an Xbox one s digital, and the performance difference is astonishing; controller feels nice too. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a console around this price point.
