From someone who was originally planning on getting the ps5 I missed out and instead settled on the Xbox series x. I planned on getting this eventually but not until later in the year however this console is a great system for both new and existing Xbox fans. First thing first the setup is quick and easy all of your games you purchased from the Xbox one era are available to download and play on your new console right after the setup. I was surprised to see all my games I bought from the Xbox one show up immediately after I set up my condo.For those uninformed the series x can play a limited amount of games from the original Xbox from 2001 and Xbox 360 it can also play every single Xbox one game as well it also loads every game at a faster rate so you’ll be spending ... MoreFrom someone who was originally planning on getting the ps5 I missed out and instead settled on the Xbox series x.

I was surprised to see all my games I bought from the Xbox one show up immediately after I set up my condo.For those uninformed the series x can play a limited amount of games from the original Xbox from 2001 and Xbox 360 it can also play every single Xbox one game as well it also loads every game at a faster rate so you’ll be spending less time in a loading screen and more time gaming. The quick resume feature is amazing and by far my favorite feature of the console. It lets you switch between up to 5 games at a time without going through in game menus. For example you could be playing Halo 5 and decide you want to play GTA 4 (an Xbox 360 game) you’ll switch to gta 4 and if you decide to return to halo 5 you’ll continue right from where you left off. The console is also capable of displaying games (that allow it) at 4K resolution and 120fps if you have a tv that supports it. If not the console still works on a standard 1080p or 720p tv you just won’t get that premium image quality and smooth gameplay. I would recommend buying this over the Xbox series s as the series x is more powerful and will run games way better than the series s but if you are on a budget the series s is ok as well but do know that it does not have a disk drive so you will only be able to play digital copies of games instead of both physical and digital. Gamepass is also a great feature if you are just joining the Xbox brand as it gives you access to over 100+ games that you can download and play all the way through. Games are added and rotated out on a monthly bases some games stay on for years others get removed after a few months. Think of it as a Netflix for video games. I recommend getting gamepass ultimate as it gives you access to gamepass and Xbox live gold which give you access to online multiplayer titles. Gamepass ultimate is 15$ a month but for new members you can get it for 1$ for 3 months and pay the 15$ once the 3 month period is over. If you just joined the Xbox brand and have no games to play gamepass ultimate immediately erases that problem as you can play 100+ games spanding from Xbox 2001 to the Xbox series x/s generation. If you are lucky enough to get your hands on this console get it it’s a great console with a lot of consumer friendly benefits for new and returning players.

One of the best consoles there are, as a pc player, a xbox one, ps4 and ps5 player. I would really like to suggest that people should buy this console. Microsoft doesn't really have any exclusives, but it's fun to play with people on a cheap high end console. The xbox controllers are in my opinion like that one of the ps5's, but as you may see now at the current market, everywhere you go the ps5 is most of the time out of stock. I play xbox to play my favourite halo series ( which is so much more fun to play it on the xbox with the controller than on the pc itself) and the forza race series. Pros:- fun to play with family- pretty cheap games- membership of the xbox gold games are gooood- lots of variety of games to play- turns on very fast- high specs- good ... MoreOne of the best consoles there are, as a pc player, a xbox one, ps4 and ps5 player.

This console is what they say it is and more! The graphics on this console from games that are optimized or made for the Series X is above par and well worth its weight in Gold! The speed of it is like they bottled of The Flash and put him to work inside! The lock isn't as sleek as the PS5's air purifier look but with a good Skin it turns out to be an awesome addition to my entertainment center. Here is the breakdown! Graphics: If you are moving from the original xbox or xbox one to the series x you will notice a huge difference in graphics even on a TV that isn't built for 4K viewing. If you are moving from the One X to the Series X you will notice some changes only to the games that are built or Optimized for the Series X but all games feel better with the speed ... MoreThis console is what they say it is and more!

Graphics: If you are moving from the original xbox or xbox one to the series x you will notice a huge difference in graphics even on a TV that isn't built for 4K viewing. If you are moving from the One X to the Series X you will notice some changes only to the games that are built or Optimized for the Series X but all games feel better with the speed you gain. Overall the Series X is on par to compete with most gaming PC's that are currently out there and once developers start taking advantage of everything the Series X has to offer I will be surprise if it doesn't beats some gaming PC's on the market today. Right now I give the graphics 4.8 out of 5 stars but will probably be 5 stars within a year.' Speed: Only gaming PC's that have the new PCI4.0 SSD's are as fast loading as the Series X with its games. To have a game load within 15 seconds that normally would take 60s or more on other gen xbox's is beautiful!! And that isn't even talking about the games that support the awesome "quick resume" feature. This feature is something that you don't know you wanted till you start using it!! The quick resume alone is a selling point for Microsoft and their Series X/S consoles. Speed is beautiful in a world that is always moving. I would give the speed a 5 out of 5 star!! If they can learn to make the loading times even faster then boy are we in for some great experiences in the future! Games: This is where, as of now, I have to say I wish there was more to offer! Game Pass alone is awesome for those who are new to xbox. They will have 100's of games available the day they turn on their console that they could experience for the 1st time and that is by far better than any gaming console on the market today. However, if you are looking for exclusive games that are new look great and feels great then there currently isn't much being offered by Microsoft. With their dozens of gaming studios they purchased over the past 5 or so years lets hope that is about to change and come E3 2021 we finally get a list of games that will make anyone want to go out and buy a Series X!!

First of all I was so excited to have purchased this. I do prefer XBox compared to PlayStation although when I finished setting it up I found that there isn’t much space left. You do not get the full 1 terabyte. It’s not so appealing having to purchase more electronics just to have more space. That alone ruined EVERYTHING! I want a console that comes with more than enough space so you have it all in one! That’s how it should be. That’s what we pay for and that’s what’s advertised. 1 terabyte sounds great but it just wasn’t that way after set up. I’m so disappointed with it I found myself playing with it less and less. I really think of switching to PLAYSTATION!! This was just not worth it.

The XB1s made me Xbox fan for life

My wife bought me this console on a black friday special in 2018 and I mainly wanted it to play 4k Blu Ray movie disks however having owned a Xbox 360 Which is still a fun this console is awesome . It's not as powerful as the XB1X model but not having native 4k isn't a deal breaker by any means. Connect this tons good quality 4k tv with HDR ist perfect. Gaming does support HDR which is more impressive on its own then 4k resolution. This is a fantastic Ultra HD movie player and streaming app playback in 4k as well . Looking forward to getting the new series s/x this Christmas but this console is fun . Updates are required off and on but that happens even with playstation whether digital or with game discs system updates are a must eventually . Internet is alot more ... MoreMy wife bought me this console on a black friday special in 2018 and I mainly wanted it to play 4k Blu Ray movie disks however having owned a Xbox 360 Which is still a fun this console is awesome .

Updates are required off and on but that happens even with playstation whether digital or with game discs system updates are a must eventually . Internet is alot more affordable even 50 - 75 mbs is plenty of speed . I've played this console a good amount and have never had any issues other than hdmi cable wearing out .. so off picture ever looks weird or flickering just know after a few years the cable needs replacement but that's ok . There like $15 or less .. I recommend using a 2.1 hdmi cable it should hold up better than the original one the system comes with a fantastic gift for any occasion . I recommend Xbox game pass for $15 a month a bunch of games to play it's so worth it for the price . If you can't get your hands on a series s this console is still excellent option .
