Xbox Series X / S

I also have the previous version. It's got a couple of bite marks from our one dog (sigh) but it still works.

Looking at the state of that room I am skeptical that someone didn't pour their THC into it.

2 things that makes me not worry.

A. it clearly looks staged. I mean who keeps a box away from the TV like that
B. at the start you can see only a power lead from it, no network, no HDMI

If this had to happen to you surely 1st thing you would do is claim from Microsoft... they would pay handsomely for you to keep shus.

Yep, never underestimate what people would do for fake internet points.

Saw another video also on 9gag, a lot more smoke but that does not look like smoke you get from burning electrical components, more like someone who blew their vape into the fans.

In terms of buying with Ebucks, I saw stock of the Series X and Series S on the shelves at Checkers Hyper (Helderberg) yesterday, so that may be an option as well

Your turn now @Papa Smurf

Spend waaaay to much time on reddit to jump 1st time I seen any of these. They tend to do the "smoking" electronics day one gag on every new product that you have to dig to find out more before you react.

Your turn now @Papa Smurf

I'm so broke I have to push my car to the bottle store each week, no toys for me this year

I need some advice, please. When I plug in my headset, the sound continues through the TV and I have to manually mute it. Is this normal?

More importantly, my mic does not seem to work. The headset icon and mic displays but no audio. I tried privacy settings, volume controls, even restarting...is there a trick I'm missing?

Yeah mine does the same. Xbox One before this did the same also. Manually turn down the volume on your TV/soundbar.

For mic tips and headset volume, check this:

Xbox One Smoking

Got my Xbox One, played it last night and today. Was playing Ryse, went and done some quick cleaning, come back and the Xbox had a amber light. Plugged it into the wall like people recommended, ended

Viral videos show Xbox Series X consoles smoking, but are they real or fake?

Can a video game console straight-up catch fire? That's what these viral videos claim.

" Our current thinking is ... don't believe everything you see on the internet. "

Unless it happens to us or anyone you know just don't worry about it, looks like a stress test on the machine to me...
