The Xbox One X Is Better Than You Think In 2023

The Xbox One X is well over 5 years old, but many people seem to underestimate the amount of power of this console especially for the low prices the Xbox One X can be listed for. The Xbox One architecture may be older, but did you know that in general the Xbox One X is more powerful than the Xbox Series S?

Picked up an Xbox one X used today for $100, seller threw in some xbox gift cards, and a couple of games. I got an amazing deal!

[huberthanks]

One of the best Xbox consoles out there. Reliable and quiet, it plays a whole range of games, including a lot of legacy games I still enjoy. I still prefer the UI menus from my X360, but apart from that, it's brilliant. Love the standard controller too. Worth buying just for graphics improvement. Overall, a great console.

The built quality on the Xbox One X is hands down one of the best in that generation. Very well built, has quiet cooling, and has awesome performance. Way better than the Ps4 Pro. I am sort of a Sony fanboy, but I own both consoles for games. But to be relevant about the console quality is way better imo.

I bought a One X for $90 today including all the accessories, and from watching this video I think that's a pretty good deal!

I recently upgraded to an ssd and replaced the thermal paste with a pad i cut to size, it's both much faster in ui and loading times and quieter thanks to that pad. All I do I is play fo4 and i can say an ssd makes the world of a difference. Definitely worth the internal install, especially with how cheap ssd's are now.

My favourite thing about the 1X is is that the design is so sleek and i thought about getting it just for the looks of it alone, will always be my favourite

I picked up my Xbox One X in late February or early March of 2020 on sale at GameStop. Almost four years later it’s still going strong 💪 and it is by far my favorite console that I’ve ever used 🎮

[MercenaryLife]

You forgot to mention that it also works as a great 4k Blu Ray player as well.

Bought my one X back in 2018 as an upgrade from my Xbox 360 and it’s served me as a great console with great graphics and backwards compatibility with most of my 360 games. I got the PS5 now and use that more often but the one X is still the best way to play games from the past generation.

Love this console. Upgraded from a One S to this one the X/Project Scorpio for dead island 2 and hogwarts legacy and im loving it. The 4k is great and its keeping me from buying a series X. Im hoping the series soon has a Pro or slim version before i upgrade again

[devprotimsikdar]

recently got this for 170$ and absolutely loving this, RDR2 runs really well, it's just the laod times are bit higher

[joedaman]

It's still a brilliant console, I'm not even in a rush to upgrade, when I do eventually upgrade it will have to be a Series X... I also love the Blu-ray on this console because I can watch 4k dvds 👌

[Blastsoff]

Bought a used Xbox One X Goldrush edition this April 2023 for less than $190. Complete with accessories and was also surprised that the original owner still have unused game and subscription codes from the original packaging. Overall, great deal for me as I can also enjoy 4k games and streaming movies, since I only have the Series S that upscales 4k, unlike the One X which has native 4k reso.

I finished the video, and was surprised to see it did not have over 1M views. Keep up the content bro!

[grandpasretrovideogames]

I still have and love my Xbox one X, despite owning my Xbox Series X for over two years now.

[feetenthusiast]

I got this from my brother when he stopped playing video games for a bit. Games ran amazingly compared to my previous consoles. Served me well and i sold it back then in like 2018? For 200 with everything

[joseorjuela]

I have a series S and my old Xbox one was on its last legs. Picked up a Xbox one X for a good price and I really like it. I’ll get an external ssd for it.

[PlzReviveMeBro]

Just picked one up for $50 at a pawn shop. It was stuck in a reboot loop so I took the hard drive out and connected it to my PC to run a disk repair, now she’s up and running!

[JohnathanNicol]

I got mine for around $200 CDN when stores were clearing them out before the the Series consoles came out. Huge improvement over my original Xbox One, even with playing on a 1080p display.

[squidMB]

I will die on the hill that if microsoft launched the one S model instead of the miserable 2013 xbox, the past decade would be very different
