Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great console so far. It uses the same GUI as the old Xbox One X so you won't have any trouble jumping right in and using it. I haven't been able to play a true next-gen game on it yet, but as far as the Xbox One catalog, this thing makes them so much better. Faster load times (by far), better frame rates/smoother games. You immediately notice this especially during fast action scenes in multiplayer games. For example, comparing APEX on the One X to the Series X side by side, there is a tangible difference in video quality. You notice small details and effects on the Series X that would get dropped on the One X when the action gets too heavy. I can't wait until I get my hands on a true next-gen Series X game to see what this thing can truly do.

Latest, best Xbox as of Jan2024. Next gen might lose out on the optical drive, so get this gen if you have been sitting on an older 360 but still want to use physical media in the future. Game console menus and functionality has improved a lot and this Xbox is fast, is simple to setup and is widely compatible with games and peripheral devices, just look for the green "Made for Xbox" logo on boxes or even on product web pages.

This is most definitely an upgrade from my Xbox Series S, I have a 4K 60hz TV and I definitely notice the resolution improvement on certain games but the absolute hands down best thing is the near-instant load times and the quick resume, makes life so much easier and older games like Skyrim much more enjoyable; only real downside is games sometimes crash when going into quick resume and the controller connection is shorty sometimes

WHAT MORE CAN I SAY? ITS AN XBOX - IT WORKS - THANKS MICROSOF... I MEAN BEST BUY

Works awesome, best purchase ever. I bought it in trade of an Xbox 1, lots of differences

To be fair, you already know what it is and what it can do. There's nothing to really say to people who would be buying this what they don't already know about it. Some positives I can mention is how easy it was to transition from the Xbox One to the Series consoles. The slightly updated interface that was also updated on Xbox One works and is very intuitive. The speed of loading games is what this console generation is pretty much built on and the Series S/X delivers. The insane SSD speeds is something that is a welcome change. Some people would find the proprietary Expansion Card a negative, but I find it's easier because it takes the guesswork out of figuring out what SSD to expand with. There are some downsides, however. With no exclusive games out at the moment (Halo Infinite delayed until 2021), it doesn't seem much more than a more powerful updated version of their previous console. I do appreciate the effort of making sure they are keeping up with the times as far as compute power is concerned. I just can't quite give it 5 stars in the launch stage of the console's life. Something seems incomplete to me. It's one of these things where you're better off waiting until next year to buy. The controller feels a little lighter than the previous controllers. Much better texture and is as comfortable in the hand as the previous one. The "share" button doesn't really matter to me, but it's a nice added feature. I didn't think I'd like the D-pad when I first saw it, but I love it a lot more now that I have used it. My only gripe (small one at that) is that it's a bit noisier that the old D-pad. Very clicky. Not really a deal breaker though. It's good to see that Microsoft for the most part basically said "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" about the Series controllers. My rating this isn't going to really sway people's decision from eventually getting it or not if they were on the fence before. But I thought at least some people would want to read a real world experience on it.

Item works well with my new nannocell 85 LG 55in And my 4K Avermedia capture card. The games load pretty quick when starting. Quick Resume is Pretty neat when you’re playing story mode games. System is very quiet as well

Excellent console and for the cost it's future proof. With capabilities of 8k enjoyment, once content is released you can not go wrong. Console is super quiet too a whisper. I was nervous about hearing the disc issues so I tried it out with modern warfare it was quiet much quieter than the one x. The speeds when loading and playing games are easily seen. The only con I can mention is that coming from the discontinued model one x the graphics the same looking at uhd 4k. Frame rate is no problem with the new console and the fact majority of games from original xbox to date and previous gen controllers are backwards compatible is a major win... thanks microsoft for the console and elite controller 2 and best buy for adding security to stop bots from purchasing the consoles.

Ordered for my brother as a gift and it came in, in perfect condition. The order actually came in earlier than expected and I was very pleased with it. The console works great and my brother loves it.

Definitely worth having the extra space, and disc drive. Performs better than my gaming PC did.

This next-gen system is a big upgrade from the previous version. It has very fast load times and the graphics look fantastic, just make sure you have a quality TV to bring this system to life!

Customer service was great!!! I prefer the Xbox over PS they graphics and the way you are able to have a subscription is worth it!

Love the speed that this loads anything and everything. Operates smoothly and runs all games equally well.

best console you can buy the storage is great dont need to buy extra storage opening games is super faster

Excellent, fast, clear graphics and picture quality

The first thing i noticed was how quiet the xbox is. Even under stress, this thing is completely silent. 1 year of Ultimate is a great deal as well, it gave me an instant library of games to try.

Well i was lucky enough to score one of these for a Christmas present. Almost didn't think it would happen. Best Buy made it easy and I like how they released a few at a time to give people a chance to get one. The look on my sons face Christmas morning was worth the crazy price these are. Not a real fan of the size and the way it stands. have to hide it behind the TV but it is what it is. It does what it needs to to do. I guess its better than the previous versions. Heck i don't play it.

It keep my 16 year old out of trouble. Hes loving his new electronic!

Got to have internet even with the disk games and it has alot of upgrading to do before play but other than that it was good

My first console in awhile. I had a ps4 and so far this blows it out of the water. Not particular to PlayStation or Xbox and I haven’t tried ps5 but this machine is fast
