The new Xbox console is here, but is the so-called "fastest, most powerful Xbox ever" worth buying?
Xbox Series X | By Microsoft |
|
|
|
Positives | Bold yet understated design Fast loading and Quick Resume 4K, ray-tracing, VRR, and 120Hz support Xbox Game Pass is incredible value Comprehensive backward compatibility |
| Negatives | No new exclusives at launch Lacks any real innovation Controller requires AA batteries Limited storage Tired UI |
|
|
Bottom Line | The Xbox Series X is a fantastic gaming machine that sadly lacks new exclusive games to showcase the hardware at its best. However, it lays the foundations for a resurgent Xbox brand, and when paired with Xbox Game Pass the Series X represents arguably the best balance of raw power and value for money of any console to date. |
