You really trust this shop warranty thing? Demand the shop to send back to where it came from instead of fixing it by themselves. After all most of them already got so much profits out of these imported units. Hence why some shops only dare to give only 3 months warranty for the imported sets.

My Xbox acc is GG already. Cant buy anything from Argentina store, even after using another CC. So funny that I made quite a few purchases all they way to late January then it doesn't work anymore.

Saw a series S on display in one of the local game shop
went in and ask them
quoted me RM2089 with not even a month store warranty
I just walk out quietly...

some scalpers also selling cheaper than them

Wow it's seriously messed up. Not only do we have a supply shortage. But scalpers are having a field day with the supply that exist. I am never seeing my Series X pre-order being fulfilled am I?

Microsoft/Xbox store having sales!

Digital game

Same. already 2 account cannot buy from Argentina anymore. Need to create new account everytime to buy

just bought a xbox series x
purchase gift card to purchase game pass ultimate
thanks to ahucks and doket for explaining how it works

Unfortunately, this will be the case for now.

It’s gonna take awhile until the stock supply is stable. I’m seeing a couple of promos now for XSX going for about 2.8-2.9k - not too bad.

If you don’t have a reason to upgrade, I would suggest you keep your current One X first - not many next-gen games available now and most of them are upscaled games. Still waiting for a Series X Exclusive next-gen game.

Heck even the Yakuza Remastered series on GP is just 1080p @ 60fps.

Ohhh that temptation.

Welcome to the club!

I just did the Game Pass Ultimate trick from Xbox Live conversion, never thought it would work since most of the feedbacks I found online were back in 2020.

I got 26 months from Xbox Live, with the auto recurring off after each code claimed, plus another 3 months from converting to GPU for $1. Total 29 months yo. Damn worth it.

Seeing all the games on Game Pass plus with EA Pass games, that's like thousand of hours of gaming.

And seeing those Shopee sellers charging at RM180 to RM200++ per annum of GPU subscription, thats easily RM50-100 profit margin. And all you need to do is a bit of reading to save up the money.

Believe or not. they are giving me warranty. That's great. Better than none or that 3 months. I already bought xbox 3 times d. X360, xone and now xsx. I dont care about warranty actually. Coz my prev xbox also like no warranty too. Yet both console still working great until now.

Anyway i bought here and now they increased the price to rm3099. LOL

That guy selling SG set at RM3099. JP set is RM100 cheaper. It will be around these prices but between JP & SG better take the SG one imo if its below RM3k. Anyway enjoy your SX.

On another note, the disc drive spins like a jet if I put my SX vertically. I've tested horizontally it makes no sound.

Owh no wonder. I don't play much with disc. So no issue. All digital.

Lunar Game sales is up!

for the player looking to get xbox series x, i suggest getting SG set or Europe set. dont get japan set.
japan set if unlucky have few problem like controller and hdmi issue.

my japan set so far have controller issue. (controller still connect and on, but idle for few second like when cut scene on game or just put down, after that press any buttons, not function. have to remove the battery and re- on it)
i read there is 5G wifi signal with asia routers things with the controller but my console is wired connection with my router....

before that i have black screen problem after restart xbox or sometimes on games it just black screen. it might be the hdmi cable or port, but now i think its been fix by the latest console updates. so far not happen anymore for me...

so, better get SG set or europe set.

Mate, that’s an unfair judgement.

I am a fellow Japan set owner since mid Dec-20 and I don’t face any issues like you are facing.

Microsoft themselves are famous for screwing up with their accessories, especially the controllers - similar to my Elite 2 controller - I have RMA it 3 times, bought in December and I still have yet to own it for more than 2 weeks because it kept going back to the seller to RMA. Would I tell people not to buy the Elite 2 because of my experience? No.

If you are referring to radio interference from wifi channels causing issues with your console, now that’s news to me. It does cause interference on some XBOX Accessories because most Bluetooth devices will have clashing radio / frequency band - hence why it is recommended to use XBOX’s proprietary wireless 2.4Ghz band instead.

You might want to hard-reset the controller and see if it still persists. Also, try with another controller to see if it’s really a faulty controller.

The HDMI issue could be caused by static / loose ports, perhaps try switching out the cable and see if it still persists - in no way the above reasons are deterrent to people buying XBOX regardless of which country it comes from.

Just my 2 cents.

What's wrong with your Elite 2 controller BTW?

any idea where can get xbox series x controller original charge and play kit ?
thanks

First one, sticky A button, second and third one inconsistent A button. Inconsistent = out of 10 presses, only 6/7 will be registered.

Is the series S support 1440p resolution? Really interested with the series s but want to connect it to a monitor.

The play and charge kit is technically just a rechargeable battery kit and a USB cable. I have 2 of them for Xbox One. The rechargeable battery can be inserted into an Xbox Series controller without problems. The only difference is the Xbox One kit came with a Micro USB cable, while the Series kit comes with a USB C cable. If you are having trouble finding the Xbox Series kit, just get the Xbox One version, then use a USB C cable to charge it.

I found someone selling the Xbox One kit here.
