Xbox One x also works with all your Xbox One games and accessories as well as Xbox live, the most advanced multiplayer network, giving you more ways to play. Broadband internet required (ISP fees apply). online multiplayer requires Xbox live Gold subscription (sold separately - ISP fees may apply)

Do I need a 4K TV to benefit from the Xbox One X?

No. The power provided by the Xbox One X allows developers to use techniques like supersampling, anisotropic filtering, and others to produce a better 1080p image. Additionally, games will have the ability to run at higher framerates and with faster load times.1

What is supersampling?

Supersampling is a technique game developers can use to improve graphical fidelity. By utilizing the additional power of the Xbox One X, developers can process images at a higher resolution, and then scale them down to fit the display resolution the player is using. Supersampled images reduce aliasing (commonly referred to as "jaggies") and generally look "cleaner" to the naked eye compared to a non-supersampled image at the same resolution.

Will my current controllers and accessories work with Xbox One X?

All Xbox One accessories (controllers, headsets, chatpads, remotes, etc.) will work with Xbox One X. Kinect for Xbox One is also compatible with Xbox One X via the Xbox Kinect Adapter (sold separately).

Will there be two different versions of games—one for the Xbox One S and one for the Xbox One X?

No. There will be one version of all games and they will work on all Xbox One consoles.
Games play better on Xbox 1X. Experience 40 percent more power than any other console

Title: This isn't a "True 4K" console, despite what Microsoft claims. But it is an incredible machine nonetheless.
Review: I'd rate the Xbox One X a 4 1/2 star, but since that isn't possible on the Amazon rating system, I'll go ahead and award this console a 5-star.I had no intention of purchasing the Xbox One X because I'm an owner of a PS4 Pro and a high-end gaming PC that's equipped with a GTX 1080 Ti SC2 Hybrid. But my wife wouldn't take no for an answer when I told her that I didn't want anything for my birthday, so I gave in :D.The console is smaller than its predecessors, but it's surprisingly heavy. The design is sleek, which I find far more attractive than the sandwich-design of the PS4 Pro. Compared to Sony's DS4, I much prefer the feel and look of the Xbox One controller, especially in FPS games. However, I still do not understand why Microsoft is so reluctant to include a rechargeable battery pack for the controller or a micro-USB cord (the PS4 comes with both!). I have a handful of micro-USB cords lying around, but they defeat the purpose of the wireless functionality of the controller. I don't want to spend money on freaking AA batteries whenever they run out of juice. And I sure as hell don't want to spend extra on rechargeable battery packs. The Xbox One X is $500! FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS! With that premium price, at least make the controller rechargeable like the DS4.In terms of performance, the X is indeed a monster, but not the kind that Microsoft would like you to believe. Despite their claim that this console can deliver "true 4k," the X utilizes the same checkerboard technology of the PS4 Pro, albeit with a higher resolution. If you are still uncertain, you can look up videos by Digital Foundry, who delves into great technical detail regarding the performance of the Xbox One X. The console's 6 teraflop video card is very powerful for a gaming device of its kind, but it pales in comparison to what's currently available in the GPU market. Games that were released in the last three years will look incredible and perform well on the X due to the higher horsepower. But AAA titles are becoming more hardware demanding every year, so it'll be interesting to see how the Xbox One X carry itself in the next 2-4 years, assuming the console cycle will last that long. In the meantime, however, all multi-platform games will undoubtedly look better on the X than they will on the PS4 Pro.But sadly, Microsoft's library of exclusive games is anemic. While Sony continues to push out enticing previews of upcoming exclusive games, Microsoft backpedals to the games of the past. The list is quite vast, but most of the Xbox 360 games that I own and want to play have yet to be made backwards compatible, which renders the functionality completely pointless at this time. As a long time ardent fan of the Halo series, I would love to play Halo: Reach with an Xbox One X enhanced visuals, HDR, and 60fps. But given 343 Industries' peculiar reluctance to support the fan favorite Halo game, I highly doubt that Reach will ever receive the upgrade that it deserves. So please, Microsoft and 343, do yourselves and the fans a favor: give Halo: Reach, one the best Xbox 360 exclusive titles, an Xbox One X Enhancement!Regardless of Microsoft's misleading claims, the X packs quite a bit for $500. Unlike the PS4 Pro, the Xbox One X is equipped with a 4k HDR Blu-ray player, which alone retails for $200. Thus, the console is a very well rounded home device, and it also gives me a reason to start collecting movie DVDs again. And in 4K HDR! Combine all this with my new LG 43UJ63 that I purchased recently, my setup is practically complete!My final criticism regarding the X is its limited storage capacity. 1TB may seem large, but it will fill up extremely fast due to the 4K assets of enhanced games.

(The game is only featured in some of the tv adds due to the amounts of units the game sold) as amazing as that game truly is it's also supper overrated and not for casual gamersEvery other enhanced/4k patch truly cranks every game to 15Rise of The Tomb Raider,Quantum Break,Mafia 3,Injustice 2,The Evil Within 2Bulletstorm: Full Clip EditionAll become Super high end 4k games that are stunning....... These 6 games are also not being pushed/mentioned as 4k titles which is a real shameThe XBox One version of BioShock Infinite also looks jaw-dropping (It could pass as a high end PC Port) with much better sound since most PC elitist don't even have any type of real home theater sound hooked-up to there gaming rigThis console is a solid price (You'd have to drop 4x's this amount for a High End PC that does what the One X can doand PC's can have many more issues between problem installing the discTo viruses on your PC'sGaming Consoles are not known for getting any type of virusesIt's a solid home gaming console if you have a 4K tv and like MS exclusives 9.2/10Microsoft exclusives have been mostly very good But, MS has done a horrible job promoting anything unless it's Halo, Gears of War, and ForzaWhile legit HQ titles like Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break, Re-Core, and Super Lucky's Tale are all treated like the red headed stepchild

Reviewer: The sound quality out of the box is the best I have ever heard from wireless headphones. They look and feel great in person. My only complaint would be that the noise canceling is sub-par when compared to other high end headphones, but the transparency mode is amazing. Overall I love these headphones, but I would have liked for the noise canceling to be a bit better at this price range. I find that it is particularly bad at blocking put high pitched noises.

Review: The xbox was packaged securely. It was easy to set up and runs all my games seamlessly. If you are looking to play new and old games without breaking the bank this is a steal for the performance. I mainly use it for Elden Ring and have not experienced any frame dropping or lagging.

Review: I was pretty hesitant with buying a console second hand, especially online. But I checked the supplier and noticed there was over 1,000 reviews about them, all highly positive and felt a little more safe.The Xbox was listed as “like new”. For conditioning. A term used by all retailers and all retailers having their own perception of “like new”.Very happily surprised to see that the console was genuinely new. Not a single scratch, dent, chip, mark. Even the cables had their coiled state. I actually feel the product was undersold if anything.But I’m incredibly happy with the purchase, it came within a few days, securely packaged and even a free game chucked in kindly. Will definitely be looking at their games section in the future. Thank you The_Game_Demon !Edit: 06/10/2021I’d purchased an Xbox One X about 5 months ago from the Seller, virtually new and had no issues with the product, not a scratch, dent or mark. It was pretty much out of the box and ran with no issues. I’d argue that it was a mint condition console than a like new. But unfortunately, it stopped working recently. I looked at some common issues to see what it might have been, a damaged HDMI port or something given the state of what I knew did and didn’t work.I searched for my warranty as a back up plan and couldn’t find that, contacted the Seller to double check and it turned out I skipped out on buying it in the first place.The Seller; Paul had been very kind and asked me to send the Xbox back to be examined by their Tech Team. So I sent it off and Paul’s kept in constant contact with me throughout the process.The issue was identified as a common fault of the One X. The GPU had burnt out which effected the entire motherboard. That happened to be extremely unfortunate for both of us and Paul had very generously replaced the entire motherboard for me.I believe that the Seller and their team had no obligation to take my issue upon themselves but it goes beyond me to find the generosity of any Seller on Amazon who’s take the time and care to fix a problem that wasn’t theirs.I cannot thank Paul and the team enough for their kindness and helping me out at a time like this and I’ll soon be back to testing the Indie scene and reviewing again. Absolutely wonderful people to have had the pleasure talking to. So thank you Paul and the Tech Team.

Review: Product arrived on time and good quality. Had a few problems which is common with used x box and retailer offered to fix even after 6 months and return policy expired with amazon. Would 100% recommend.
