Customer Ratings & Reviews

Absolutely love this Xbox! The graphics are amazing, gameplay is smooth, and it loads games super fast. Setting it up was easy and the storage space is great for multiple games. The controller feels comfortable and responsive too. Definitely worth the purchase if you enjoy gaming or want a reliable console for entertainment.”

This system is awesome. Loads faster than any other console I have owned. I really like the quick resume feature for games that start so fast. Loading times are short. Graphics are amazing. The 1TB drive helps me hold like 12 full games from discs on it.

[Employee of bestbuy] This a console that transcends the previous. I mean, it is insane. For the price you can run almost everything at 4k 120fps (of course limited to a few titles that don't have those capabilities or monitors/TVs that aren't able to display that). It's completely silent compared to Xbox One S. It runs amazing and doesn't have many draw backs. The only thing that is worthy of complaint is the fact that it doesn't have much storage. 1tb is really closer to about 800 gigs. But, I bought the 2tb memory card, and that gave me a lot of space for games. I would recommend for anyone who wants to start playing games for a cheaper price than most gaming computers that are equal to its performance (of course, if you're planning to play mostly cross-platform fps games or Xbox exclusives). The one thing I would recommend besides the console is to grab an after market controller that has hall effect sticks so you don't get drift. Other than that, if you take care of your controller, it'll last a couple years.

The shipping was fast and the new Series X amazed me. I was used to the Xbox one (2015 model) and the graphics, higher resolution, and frame rate makes the Series X worth it. The ssd is also incredibly fast and games load quickly. I highly recommend getting the Xbox Series X if you have a 4K display, so you can use this console to its maximum potential. The 1 terabyte storage capacity is pretty nice. You can also install more SSDs for extra storage. If you have Original Xbox or Xbox 360 titles you’re in luck because the disk drive takes care of that for you through backwards compatibility. Some games can also be ran at higher resolutions and frame rates than before. Backwards compatibility is one of my favorite things about the original Xbox. The included controller awesome for a couple of reasons. The controller uses a USB port instead of a micro usb port. I prefer this because it makes it harder to pull the cable out compared to the micro usb versions. It also has a nice texture for extra grip underneath the handles. The new D pad is also a nice addition to the controller. Overall I 5/5 recommend this console.

Works great, no issues so far and the Best Buy warranty is a good add on. I think the two best things is how quiet it is and also the quick resume feature allowing you to swap between games/apps in seconds right back to where you were.

Picked up my console on launch day and I’ve been playing it ever since. I will say that the console is a lot bigger than I was expecting but it’s less bulky than the original Xbox One. My games run ridiculously smooth and I upgraded from the Xbox One S. The graphics are stellar on my 4K UHD Samsung tv. The console is basically silent, it hasn’t overheated, load times are essentially nonexistent and the console itself boots up very quickly. I haven’t had any issues so far with my console but I purchased the 2 year Geek Squad protection, just in case.

This machine is silent and incredibly fast. The quick resume feature is amazing for someone like me who likes to play several different games and be able to flip through them instantly without any load times. 10/10

I really hesitated this purchase. I kicked around the idea of the upgrade for quite some time. I notice my local store had some in stock and almost pulled the plug but ultimately ended up holding off once again. Of course, they sold out quickly and again I had missed my chance. Fast forward a week or so, the opportunity presented itself once again. This time I pulled the trigger and purchased my Xbox series x. Even after the purchase I continued to tell myself the Xbox one x was a powerful unit and this upgrade was unnecessary. I soon learned how wrong us was. The Xbox series x is absolute powerhouse and a whole new console experience. Starting from the unboxing I must say I was very underwhelmed. The packaging was dull and did not provide the unboxing excitement that day and Apple product would posses. Upon hooking up the console and powering it up I immediately noticed improved graphics and speed. I fired up Elden Ring and was amazed by the night and day difference from the x1x to the xsx. Gameplay was incredibly swift , clean and smooth,, loud times are Non existent, graphics are flawless and movements are crisp. I’ve since played a few other games and have been impressed with the noticeable difference. Gaming on the x1x now seems clunky and slow. With the size of newer games maps this really is a must. The only real downfall is that the new control still is sent out with one time use battery’s. Amazon has many rechargeable batteries to solve that problem so it really is minuscule. The slight modifications to the controller made a work of art even better. If you have an opportunity to get your hands on this machine do not hesitate as you won’t regret it.

The Xbox Series X has been an incredible upgrade to my setup. Load times are practically nonexistent thanks to the SSD, and games look fantastic in 4K with smooth performance. Even during long sessions, the console stays quiet and cool, which I really appreciate. Quick Resume is one of those features you don’t realize you need until you have it — jumping between games instantly feels like magic. The controller is comfortable, responsive, and familiar in the best way. Overall, the Series X delivers power, speed, and reliability. It feels built for the future, and it’s been a flawless experience from day one. Highly recommended for anyone who wants top‑tier performance and a rock‑solid gaming experience.

In the ever-evolving landscape of gaming, the Xbox X stands as a testament to technological innovation and user-centric design. From the moment you lay eyes on its sleek, modern aesthetic, to the immersive experience delivered by its powerful internals, this console redefines what it means to be at the forefront of gaming. The design exudes a perfect balance of elegance and durability, housing a processing prowess that ensures seamless gameplay, vivid graphics, and a library of titles that caters to every gaming palate. The redesigned controller adds to the tactile pleasure of gaming, and the intuitive user interface, coupled with robust online services, creates an environment where the console seamlessly integrates into both gaming and multimedia realms. With versatile connectivity options and impressive media capabilities, the Xbox X isn't just a gaming console; it's an entertainment hub that sets a new standard for immersive experiences. In a nutshell, the Xbox X is a powerhouse that delivers on its promises, making it a compelling choice for both dedicated gamers and multimedia enthusiasts alike.

From the second you boot up an Xbox One Series X (the name could use some work) you get that feeling of the enhanced performance, the way everything loads very quickly. But then, so far, the next-gen gaming experiences on Xbox seem very much the same. Granted I've only played WatchDogs Legion (great game) and some of the remastered experiences like Horizon 4, Master Chief X/S, and others, yet there is no huge "this game feels next gen" experiences yet. You do get glimpses though. For example the opening scene of Legion has you walk through a cathedral where moonlight shines through a stained glass window onto your character accurately. And then the reflections on the streets and in water. Seeing a daytime reflection in the river of the underside of a bridge was pretty incredible and something not scene before. But aside from that I think most experiences are going to be just like this, subtle. But aside from that the big reason I grabbed a console day one (aside from being very lucky and trying over and over again) was to get the backwards compatibility for current and older gen titles. Playing games even from a USB spinning disk still has advantages in performance over the Xbox One. Older Xbox and 360 games look and perform noticeably better as well, like gaming on a PC when you jump a few generations in graphics cards. And the transition from Xbox One to Xbox Series X was instant. I literally just unplugged the 4TB drive I had my games stored on from my Xbox One X and plugged it into the Series X. And they were instantly recognized and playable! I also happened to grab a PS5, and I'll mention it here that despite PS5 being equally great, the transition from taking games on one drive from your PS4 Pro to PS5 is a buggy mess. Even transferring over the network doesn't work as it should. Again I mention this because Microsoft's implementation is easy and flawless, the way it should be. All of this said, and with new games bound to release shortly that really show off the Xbox Series X and S power, buy in when you can. Try and hold out from scalpers and their 3 to 4 times price hiking as the real reasons to buy in will come. But if you are lucky enough to grab one, you can relive all your great Xbox experiences now.

A quality purchase that I will never regret--- from the amazing slick design, comfortable controller and amazing graphics/fast loading times this is the best console i've ever purchased. This is definitely my favorite next-gen console that's out and i wish it got more love on release.

I purchased the Xbox Series X from Best Buy as a gift for my son, and it was absolutely worth it! The performance is incredible—fast load times, stunning graphics, and a smooth gaming experience. My son has been raving about the improved gameplay and how much he loves playing his favorite games on it. The setup was quick and easy, and the console runs quietly, even during extended gaming sessions. Best Buy's service was excellent, with fast shipping and secure packaging. I couldn’t have asked for a better purchase. If you're considering getting one for your kids or yourself, I highly recommend it!

I bought this xbox series x for my son. He absolutely loves it he said the graphics are amazing. The xbox works fast with good interne. Its a fast system no stalls. Just runs perfectly. Plus if you get the game pass you can download games for the price of the game pass which is $25 a month not bad better then buying individual games at $60 or more. I like the system it works flawlessly and its a good buy. I got it at BestBuy which was great service and the price was very competative even cheaper then Microsoft. With 1 TB storage its good but im gonna buy a good 2TB external hard drive for extra storage. I recommend this gaming console.

The Xbox Series X is an excellent piece of hardware. The SSD storage makes for really quick low times. The Quick Resume functionality was something that I thought I'm not really that interested in I don't need it, but after using it for a couple weeks now it makes the overall gaming experience much more pleasant. The excellent backwards compatibility that's been implemented in the Series X is really quite astounding. You get support all the way back from the Xbox One to the original Xbox game console. Pretty much every backwards compatible title has enhancements in low times, resolution, frame rate, and some have added HDR support. If you're just joining the Xbox family for the first time from PlayStation or Nintendo, a must have is Game Pass. You get access to hundreds of games from Microsoft's back catalog and even some new releases, along with the majority of Microsoft first party titles. It's an excellent value. Now for the not so good parts. The overall OS/UI it's just pretty much a copy and paste of the Xbox one OS. I've never been a huge fan of it but it gives the job done. I've always preferred the Sony OS because to me it felt much more simple and easier to use. The Xbox Series X controller is a solid controller. It's an improvement from the Xbox one controller, I like the texture grip, and the d-pad is improved which for me is a big plus because I like to play a lot of 2D action games and I don't like using analog stick for that. But Sony has really knocked it out of the park with the Dualsense controller which makes Microsoft controller seem a little less exciting. The biggest negative of all with the Xbox series X, it's just the lack of first party games. But I'm buying into this ecosystem this time around because with all the recent studio acquisitions Microsoft has made it looks like the first party lineup should be much better this generation. The reason that I give this five stars despite the negatives that I've mentioned, is because this is a hardware review not a software review. I hope you found this review useful and somewhat insightful.

Great purchase—highly recommend! I recently purchased this Xbox system from Best Buy and couldn’t be happier. Setup was quick and easy, the performance is incredibly smooth, and the graphics are impressive right out of the box. Everything worked perfectly, and the system runs quietly even during longer gaming sessions. Best Buy made the buying process seamless, and the product was exactly as described. This Xbox has definitely exceeded my expectations and has been a great addition to my home entertainment setup. Would absolutely recommend to anyone thinking about upgrading or jumping into gaming.

The Xbox Series X is a absolute BEAST of a console. I own both the Series X & PS5 digital console. I use the Series X just about everyday as my PS5 sits there collecting dust waiting for Playstation's next exclusive games to come out. Also, Gamepass is absolutely the best gaming deal in the industry, especially for new consumers who dont own any games. I own alot of Xbox digital & disk games. However now I rarely buy games anymore bc I've come to learn they'll almost likely end up in GP at some point. The Series X has a bunch of cool features including quick resume, Xbox Velocity Architecture which comprises four major components: a custom NVME SSD, hardware accelerated decompression, a brand new DirectStorage API layer and Sampler Feedback Streaming (SFS). The box also leverages AMD freesync & VRR on new tvs that support it something Sony's console still doesnt have. Also Xbox doesnt charge you twice for the same game like Playstation does. The Series X is worth every penny and is built for the future of gaming

I recently bought the Microsoft Xbox Series X Console from Best Buy as a gift for my boyfriend, and it has been absolutely fantastic. He loves it and uses it every day. The Xbox Series X looks sleek and performs incredibly well. It loads games super fast, thanks to its SSD storage. The graphics are stunning, with 4K resolution and HDR support that make games come to life. What's really cool is that it can play older Xbox games too, so my boyfriend gets to enjoy his favorite classics with improved graphics. The controller is comfortable, and the Share button makes it easy to capture and share gameplay moments. Not only is it great for gaming, but it also seamlessly integrates with streaming services like Netflix and Disney+. It has become the center of entertainment in our living room. Overall, the Microsoft Xbox Series X is an amazing console. If you're into gaming or searching for a gift idea, I highly recommend it. My boyfriend is thrilled with it, and I'm really happy with this purchase.

Loved mine since I bought the original one, decided to get one for my Father in Law for his birthday. We use it for every thing from games to 4k movies to streaming from all of the platforms we have. Just wish we could have more storage by using the external ssd that is not Microsoft specific.

Crazy to think I have owned every generation of Xbox from the OG to the Series X. As games have evolved, Microsoft has kept pace with innovations and enhancements. The Series X is next level. It's quick, buttery smooth, and easy to operate. The size isn't nearly as big as I thought and it tucks nicely behind its new best friend - the Hisense U8K 75" 4K TV, Ports are easy to figure out, expansion is available if needed. The Quick Resume is my fave feature - especially with single player games. You can drop your game and pick it right back up. No need to make the wife angry by "geting to that next check (save) point". Just let Xbox save your marriage and you'll be gaming like the boss you are. Seriously though - I love this thing and am eager to test its full potential with future games.
