Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this as a gift for my boyfriend for Christmas and he loves it! I still have an XBox series one S, and he’s upgrading from a One X. It definitely performs best on a 4K capable monitor. We both found the new design to be a little bulky/awkward, but the console runs well and the graphics are super sharp. Glad to finally have gotten my hands on one, the pickup process at Best Buy was smooth as ever!

I was able to finally upgrade to a Series X from a Xbox One S and let me say it well worth it. Firstly the graphics are immensely better and can see the fine details clearly. The load times are much faster and that means more time playing. I primarily play Battle Royale games and have no issues with graphics rendering in at far distances, and the games just run way more smooth. Highly recommend!

To start, I'm playing on an LG 4K OLED and ever since the "Red Ring" fiasco on my 360 I have moved solely to the PS side but decided to give Microsoft another shot. I will say, I'm pretty happy with this one so far. I wouldn't put either the PS5 or the Series X over the other since I have played them side-by-side and as far as I can tell they are pretty even in performance. GamePass is a must if you don't like sticking to one game for months and, for me, that is what pushes the X just into the 5* range. Graphics wise, it isn't "OH MY GOD!" revolutionary but I will say they are amazing and I'm looking forward to more next gen games to come out in the next year or so to really start utilizing the power this thing has. As for looks, I'm not sure why everyone keeps saying it is super sleek and sexy and all that...it's a black box. It's not bad in my opinion but it's still just a big black brick. The black 360 was "sleek", I don't think people know what that word means. Set-up was super easy and my account from 13 years ago was still there so that was a plus. Not a huge fan of having to pay extra for a rechargeable pack or replace batteries in the controller but at least they last a while and they last longer than a charge on the PS5 and 4 controllers. Unless this console dies in the next few months, Microsoft has scored a few points in my book and may have won back a customer finally.

Got the series x through all-access. The program is not the easiest to use but the xbox has been awesome for the last month. A MASSIVE step up from my xbox one and paired with a new monitor its been the stuff of dreams. All-access comes with the console and 2 YEARS of game pass ultimate that you redeem when setting up the console which is all easy peasy.

As a long time gamer and avid xbox buyer, i'm extremely pleased with this system. The difference between this console and the OG xbox one is night and day! The first day I played on it I found myself going back to experience what the graphics and gameplay were supposed to look like on games like Battlefield 1, RDR 2, and Assassins Creed: Odyssey. The look and feel amazing after the upgrade. Ive been playing on 4k TVs since early 2016 and always thought the graphics look dull and to be fair a One X would have helped up the resolution, but I could never justify spending the money just to upgrade that aspect. Extremely pleased in the build and look of the console itself. I wasn't too ecstatic when the Xbox one came out with the glossy black that was easily susceptible to scratches. The Xbox Series X with the matte finish makes it look sleek and professional. More of a modern piece thats fits an apartment rather than an actual console. Overall, I love the Xbox Series X and can't wait to see what the future holds for both of these next generation consoles! PS - whats the point of leaving a negative review if you weren't able to buy one? I understand the frustration with scalpers but that has always been an issue and always will in a capitalistic society. Don't put out that negative energy because in return it will just bring you bad energy. Just breathe and be thankful. The energy you emit is the energy you receive, so be positive.

This is my first Xbox since the Xbox 360. Overall the system is solid. The quick resume feature is good. The controller is comfortable. The phone app is good. The games when fully optimized to take advantage of the system looks and plays really good on a 4K tv. Gamepass is decent. For the negatives, there are not many titles that Take full advantage of the series x. I find myself playing the old games that I didn’t play because I didn’t have a Xbox one. I do get crashes sometimes. I hate the confusing name convention on the games. You could pick up the wrong game and it won’t take advantage of the Xbox series X.

Extremely fun to play. You can play any games from the xbox one, and xbox 360, and of ofcourse you can play games that you can't on the new xbox one. It has amazing graphics, and speed. It works well with a wireless connection and amazing with a wired connection!!!

This thing is huge, but it runs so much more quietly than the previous one and those before it. From what I've experienced it runs much faster and the picture quality paired with my sony tv is so much more detailed. And set up was so easy. Pair the app with a code and it transfers everything automatically for you with a click on the accept button.

The Xbox series is great, I love it. I have been playing on the xb one which is great and all but what makes the series x stand out is how much faster the loads are, the quick jump back into a game. If your someone one like me who is a person whose time is money than you will understand that every second counts. Also graphics are cleaner just an over all better experience. I give it an A+

Upgraded original one s model from 5 years ago. This this is much faster in every way with big improvement on details loading in game scenes. Playing on an oled tv and it's night and day.

I switched from pc gaming to this xbox series X and I have no regrets. For the price the performance is amazing and the quick resume feature is so nice to have. Game pass ultimate is a must since you can try out most games before buying them.

I bought this over a year ago and i absolutely love it

Easily the best console on the market. Smooth framerates, highly detailed graphics, quiet fan. This console has EVERYTHING at a shocking low price, relatively. This has the power of a multi-thousand dollar PC for only the price listed. It is 1000% worth it, and a MAJOR upgrade from the previous Xbox generations. Load times are NOTHING. AC Valhalla loads INSTANTLY. I cannot be anymore happier with this purchase.

This thing handles games like a champ. Recently just played through the Halo infinite campaign and this thing never bogged down. It’s very fast while in games and especially in the UI which was my big grudge with the original Xbox one which was how slow the UI was. It’s very quiet when under load which is amazing and the design is very minimalistic which I enjoy.

I updated from an Xbox One so this is a major update for me. I find it loads almost instantly. Good storage. Great video quality in spite of my older TV. I'm sorry I did not upgrade sooner.

Always been a gamer with Xbox, just bought new Xbox X and absolutely love this machine. Nice slim looking machine and very fast, definitely need a new monitor to get all the capabilities out of this machine. But overall love it so far

It’s everything Microsoft promised. Fast, powerful and No issues, works very well. Quick resume is other worldly. I would only recommend waiting to buy this ONLY if you’re going to upgrade your monitor/tv to a COMPATIBLE 4K or 1440p, (((((HMDI 2.1!!!!)))) (120hz-144hz refresh rate/frames per second). And they’re going to be obo $800-$1,500 on the cheapest finds. Otherwise, you’ll still be gaming at 4K or 1440p, ( 60hz refresh rate/frames per second) Another words, you basically just bought another Xbox ONE model for series x retail price if you don’t upgrade lol. Another thing to keep in mind is the 1tb expansion card upgrade as well. ($210-$220), if you don’t get this you can only take advantage of 5-10 games for the quick resume option, depending on its download size. You can still use last gen external hard drives, but there’s no quick resume for using that storage option. It’s probably better to wait for that too if you do get the console and tv/monitor upgrade, until the prices drop on storage and or there’s more storage size options.

I got this for my fiance as a gift. He absolutely loves it. The only issue I had was when speaking to the associate. She didn't tell me the pick-up location was in Richfield, Indiana. And I thought it was Richfield, Minnesota. I was in a total panic, however the associate at the Richfield, Minnesota location was absolutely amazing. Even though they were sold out everywhere her. She contacted the other location told them exactly what happened and had it shipped to my home address. I had to wait a little longer to give it to him. The look on his face when he got it was priceless. All thanks to that wonderful associate with her quick thinking under pressure during last minute Christmas shopping. I will always go to Best Buy they go above and beyond for their customers.

Definitely recommend if in the market for a next gen console. Totally an upgrade from my xbox one x, everything just feels smoother and faster. The quick resume feature is a game changer, makes me want to play games ive never thought I'd be playing. Looks great on my 4K TV too.

Love Love LOVE this console. I upgraded from the series S to this and have had no problems whatsoever. Graphics are a major upgrade from S to X and the load times are so much faster 10/10
