Xbox One Top 5 Problems

The Xbox One game console is a fairly reliable but just like the PS4 it does have it's problems. Here are the top 5 problems with the Xbox One:
1) Disc drive issues. This is by far the most common problem with this console. Both faulty lasers and mechanical problems with the drive are some of the most common items that cause problems.
2) Turning on then off/Not turning on at all. Many Xbox's had faulty power bricks, but some also have had faulty Southbridge chips and/or faulty components on the power rail that cause them to not turn on at all or turn on then back off.
3) HDMI ports. While not as big of a problem as with the PS4 consoles Xbox One's definitely have had some problems with bad HDMI ports. This has been an issue so far with the Xbox One S consoles as well.
4) Hard drives. Hard drive problems seem to be more common with the Xbox One than with the PS4. These problems are also not limited to the Xbox One but are also found on the Xbox One S.
5) Bug infestation. Many of these consoles get infested with cockroaches. It seems to be less common with Xbox's than with PS4's but it definitely still happens.

I've got a day one xbox and still rock solid

I would love to see a full video about the turning off and back on issue. I’ve noticed in 2-3 videos over the last year where you say you’ll have to make a longer video in the future about this issue because it requires more diagnostics and would take time. Although you talk about it a few times here and there, which helps a little, I don’t think you’ve made one yet. And for some reason no other channel has covered this issue, that I can find.. Love your content either way, it’s so much appreciated 😌 Also, if you read this by chance and remember, do you have any videos up repairing circuit traces?

Did you ever do a video about top 5 problems with the XB1X?

[blobboflava]

Finally someone who knows what he is talking about. There is so much rubbish on YouTube regarding what the issues are and how to fix them. Some guys give all these step by step guidelines on what to switch off when and when to switch it back on, that you feel like a time traveller who arrived in the Dark Ages. It is all technology and the failure of connections or components. Good video, thumbs up.

[nickhooters]

Ok so can you do a fixbit video on the orange light on the power brick please?

[techadmirer]

I literally have tp reset my Xbox everyday just to play something it constantly says out of sync and then games get corrupted sometimes my games shuts off out of nowehere and currently it wont launch anything

[wolfkencrimson]

You forgot the overheating problem with the a Xbox one, I spilt a full cup of milk into my Xbox One while playing it and 3 years later it's still working.

Any time I try to install a game from the store or update a game, it says “install stopped.” I’ve tried unplugging. I’ve done a factory reset. I’ve reformatted the external hard drive. It usually fixes it for a day or 2 and then it messes up again. Any thoughts? EDIT: it was the external hard drive. I replaced it and all is well again.
