What do you think about Xbox Series X design?

Series X: 12 x 6 x 6 = 432 cubic inches
XB1 OG: 13.1 x 10.8 x 3.1 = 438 cubic inches

I liked it. It gave me the impression that they are going all out and this is going to be really powerful.
I quite like it. It reminds me of that thing that the monkeys worship in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Its a big black box lacking any design flourish whatsoever and wouldn't even fit in my entertainment unit.
Anyone calling it "stylish" must really just love plain black oblongs. The design sheet just being using the rectangle shape tool, line tool for the disc slit, slap the logo light on and baby ITS PAYDAY.

When it first showed up on screen, that no frills "PC tower" like appearance really evoked a sense of power, so from a marketing standpoint alone, I think it's a very smart design.
I want the Lockhart model to basically be the size of a Gamecube.
This is where I am. Incredibly spoiled by how quiet the One X is. Especially next to the turbo jet engine that my Pro delivers.
I like minimalism, and it being a box is fitting for Xbox, so I like it. Now all it needs is a Banjo-Kazooie game so it can sway me from PS5.
It's both surprising and uninteresting :D
Honestly, it looks great.
I really like the form factor tbh; it would look great in my living room.
At the same time i am a tad disappointed at the finish and buttons looking exactly like Xbox One X's, but overall it's a very attractive device.
It also makes a lot of sense to have hot air going out from the top (although i'd imagine the back also has vents)

I hope it has a removable filter so that you can clean it. Especially if they expect you to have this out in open air.
In contrast to cloud gaming I like the idea of having a personal mini tower server for your games.
I hope with the xCloud technology there's a way for it to stream to the devices on your home network (phone, laptop, TV dongle). If there was some way with virtualization to split it into two 'Xbox Series S' that would be awesome.

Not generally, although depending on what the back material is made out of (if it's cardboard), you can open that up at least. I normally just keep the cabinet open when using a console in a stand that had no other option.
Building a silent and powerful console in a smaller box is either very expensive or impossible.
I would choose "Neutral" if it's in the poll, because "Meh" was a little bit too harsh for me to choose it.
I never PC gaming (except for that old DOS games when I was a kid), so my first reaction was "WTF???"

Personally, this is why I like it so much.
No joke, this must be my favorite console design of all time!
There is a usb 3 port on the front just covered by the controller, we don't know if it's usb 3.0 3.1 or 3.2 but it's there
