What is Xbox Series X?
The Xbox Series X is Microsoft’s flagship next generation video game console that launches November 10, 2020. The console is the world’s fastest and most powerful console yet and is designed to play the latest and best looking games.
The Xbox Series X can handle 4K visuals at 60 fps all the way up to 120 fps. And, can even display resolutions up to 8K! It also has advanced graphical features such as Variable Rate Shading and Raytracing, which allows the Xbox Series X to create a gaming experience with an incredible level of detail and realism.
The Xbox Series X comes with a custom built 1TB SSD. This incredible fast storage allows for a more immersive experience with little to no wait. And, the Xbox Series X’s new Quick Resume feature allows you to pick up right where you left off without long loading times. This means you spend less time waiting and more time gaming!
Backwards compatible games across 4 generations
You’ll be happy to know that the Xbox Series X is the most compatible video game console ever. There will be thousands of backward compatible games on day one spanning four generations. That means you can play your favourite games from Xbox all the way up to Xbox One right out of the box.
And, these games will benefit from the power of the Xbox Series X with higher and more steady frame rates, faster loading times, and increased visual quality and resolution.

Reviewer is a big fella. Hard to see for scale for the size. The AA batteries looked like AAA
Thanks for sharing, I love the to the point unboxing and none of the “ooh thy wrapped it with 75lb card stock, with a French-style ink droplet-real high end .” lol
Unboxing should be like this! Thanks for sharing
Hey Jon, any idea if Best Buy is going to stock the Arctis 7X headset?
Thanks.
It’s so exciting to see the unboxing. I wish I was getting one this holiday! I’m a little surprised that Microsoft still uses battery operated controllers, I thought maybe they would have moved to rechargeable controllers like the other major console manufacturers.
I can hardly wait for your review Jon!
