Got this for my husband, speed is great, the graphics are great, hubby has no complaints

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.

Great console. After playing my old Xbox One heavily since it came out I figured it was finally time to make the switch to new gen. Immediately I recognized the loading times for every game were significantly improved. And I do mean significantly. This is the biggest draw of the new console (for me), as it makes finding matches, fast traveling, and switching between games lightning quick just to name a few. Furthermore, every other technical aspect is improved in some way from old gen, which is to be expected of course. Graphics are even more beautiful and the higher FPS (frames per second) means you'll even have a competitive advantage against players who are still on old gen consoles.

Great Xbox, great speed, and great graphics, very happy with this

Bought this for my daughter she is absolutely in love with this X-box. She prefers Xbox while my son prefers PlayStation. There arguments over which is better are funny but over all amazing console. This is our first Xbox and I must say I am impressed with speed, graphics and over all ease of use. Definitely would recommend this console!

Allows seamless switching between multiple games, smooth 4K gaming, high frame rates, and generally quiet console that integrates well.

The Xbox Series X is everything I hoped for and more. Super fast load times, smooth gameplay, and the graphics are incredible—it really shows off what next-gen is supposed to be. Setup was quick and easy, the system runs quietly, and Game Pass makes it even better with so many games ready to play right away. Definitely worth the upgrade!

Happy to say this purchase was totally worth it and my boyfriend is definitely enjoying his xmas gift! Fast with great picture! No complaints!

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.

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!

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.

Fast loading, new quick resume features delivers almost instantaneous gaming experience. The footprint is on the larger end of gaming platforms but the design is very meticulously, could easily pass as a decorative piece on your console.

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.

My career path has evolved to the point where I want to do as little "IT" management at home as possible. Coming over from the PC crowd I had my reservations about what this little black box could accomplish having grown accustomed to flagship products on the other side. Against all odds, I've found the gaming experience to exceed my expectations. Graphical fidelity, fluid gameplay and ease-of-use make the Xbox Series X a must have for every gamer no matter their title.

If you are looking for the best Xbox experience with both normal games and games with the highest graphical fidelity and have a 4k hdr TV this is the console to pick if you can. If your using a 1080p TV the Series S is a great option. The only potential criticism of this console has nothing to do with the Series X its self rather its due to microsoft releasing two separate Xbox consoles at the same time with different specs, this leads many developers to develop their game to Series S specs as opposed to taking advantage of all the Series X power and capability. The result is there are many games who don't truly take advantage of the Series X specs. This issue really started last generation where the xbox released the Xbox One X which had similar issues in that if a game was optimized for it, it was amazing but most games were not. On the playstation side game devs only have to develop to one spec the ps5 which makes it easier for them to optimize for that hardware. Of course this is not a a ps5 review. Overall I am very pleased with the Series X it is a solid console with a great controller and more storage than the series S although I never had storage issues with the series S as long as you have an available internet connection. In the future I would like to see Xbox drop the two console spec approach but really I can't complain. The Series X is simply the best xbox ever created.

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.

Xbox Series X is a great console, I love the ease of the Xbox interface and homepage, I like the friends/followers system they have, not only but the graphics are great and the 1tb gives enough space to have multiple games downloaded and the quick resume feature is great to jump from game to game

Bought this for my son because he had his older one for so long and it was time for an upgrade. Thought about just getting him the “S” being that it was so close to Christmas but so glad we decided to splurge on this one. The speed, graphics, and capabilities just can’t be beat!!! The only downside is that I hardly see my son any more.. 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.
