    It took a while to get my hands on this, but was worth the wait. The improvements over the Xbox one were most noticeable to me in the load times and graphics even on my older tv. The precision on the controls felt more in tune with my play. I’m glad I bought this and am looking forward to new content coming this fall.

    I really wanted to build a gaming PC, but to get comparable performance, I was going to have to spend upwards of 4x as much as this. It's very responsive and snappy and surprisingly quiet given how much heat it kicks out through the main vent. Get this and Games Pass over the PS5, you'll have more fun. Unless you can afford both.

    I own both a series S and X, worthwhile upgrade

    I own both a Series S and a Series X. Both are great consoles, though I was a bit underwhelmed by how disappointing the performance has been for a lot of games on the series S. We were generally promised 1440p 60fps for series S games, and native 4k 60 fps for the series X. Since the series S hasn't been very well optimized, most games run at 30 fps or 60 with an upscaled 1080p. Since buying a series X I have had no issues with performance, and it's also incredibly quiet. Both PlayStation and Xbox seem to really be lacking on exclusives right now, so if you're between getting either, I'd recommend picking up a series X for gamepass alone.

    Initially I had thought consoles have been dragging laughably behind in terms of hardware, but lately my bias on that has been changing. It runs nearly everything I need it to run with little to no issues, if you have good to even moderately acceptable internet speeds you'll gain quite a bit of usage out of this thing. Gonna be real here, having 2 years of game pass with this really maximizes the experience to be had. Suddenly everything feels so accessible and optimizes it's downloads efficiently so it doesn't affect gaming performance issues. Overall, if you don't wanna commit to PC settle on this. Just cop a decent resolution TV, have better wifi than McDonalds, and commit to game pass especially if you're the type that doesn't like to buy games independently.

    I was a microsoft person all my childhood. I ended up getting a PS4 when it came out instead of the Xbox One. When this and the PS5 were announced, I couldn't make up my mind. I decided to give Microsoft a chance again and I can say that I am happy that I made the switch back. Xbox will always be my favorite!

    The machine is a work horse compared to the original Xbox One. The interface remains the same but the load times are so fast. The machine can run hot, even when standing upright. Still has some kinks to work out from an interface perspective. Well worth owning if you want to play your existing Xbox library with a greater user experience.

    Obviously a huge upgrade from an Xbox 360 to the Series X. I've been playing a catalog of Xbox One games that I missed last generation, and it has been great! Beautiful graphics, 60 FPS for some games that ran at 30 on Xbox One, and pretty fast load times. Impressed so far, can't wait until the exclusives start coming!

    Extremely happy with choosing the XBOX Series X for my Next Gen system. Initial set up through the phone app was quick and simple. System is fast and the graphics are terrific. And I believe XBOX Game pass is simply the best deal in gaming and alone makes for a great choice over PS5.

    Birthday present for my daughter. She was having a bummer of a day, UNTIL she saw her present. She started cheesing real big and cried "happy tears". I bought it online and the next morning at opening it was ready. I walked in, gave my receipt, and walked out with the xbox. Very fast, very friendly crew!!! She loves her Xbox!!!!

    This new generation of Xbox is a beast! Flawless UI, fast start up and loading of games not to mention the quick resume is awesome! The controller is slightly smaller than my elite controller but still feels perfect in my hands. The graphics on the games are phenomenal! Absolutely amazing! This console is perfect for the hardcore Xbox fan!

    The Xbox Series X is a true game-changer in the world of consoles. Its lightning-fast loading times transform gaming into a seamless experience. With support for 4K resolution at 120 FPS, games look breathtakingly realistic. The console's backward compatibility is a delightful feature, ensuring your old favorites are never obsolete. The Xbox Game Pass, akin to a gaming Netflix, provides an endless library of titles to explore. The controller design, though familiar, has been fine-tuned for even greater comfort and precision. The Xbox Series X is not just a console; it’s a comprehensive entertainment powerhouse, perfect for any gaming enthusiast.
