HDMI Black Level / Black Point (its either of those two) is part of your TV’s settings :)

Seeing as my notes this time are incomplete due to the AMAZING day I have had with Xbox, and now the Xbox Celebration Stream is live - here you go (no new thread this time). Tonnes of info here for those of you who like to read. Enjoy! Apple “One More Thing” Event - 10th November 2020 — Tim...

Xbox Celebration Stream has begun!

That’ll be your black point / HDMI Black Level setting. Go back on Series X calibration, change the TV Black Point/HDMI Black Level setting and take it from there :)

I’m doing a network transfer of almost a 1TB of data from my One X to the Series X lol. Transfer rate is flying at 600Mbps!

Every comparison by tech reviewers has been between the Xbox One X and the Series X. Yes, you will see a difference - especially with “Optimised for Series X” games like Gears 5. Even games which are not “optimised for Series X” will all play better, load way faster, have very stable Frame rates...

I am so happy I could literally cry. I have waited so many years for this. (One is for my nephew, which is why I have two. I WISH I was selling the second one; they are going for £750+ now!) lol

Ahhhh nice!!! So freaking cool I can’t wait to set mine up!!

Yep, 30 free trial perk! Perfect for watching The Mandalorian if you haven’t seen it already!! I can’t believe GamePass is still adding perks - don’t they know it’s already the best deal ever?! It’s kind of mind blowing!

I have no idea how you got £50 lol, that’s pretty cool tbh, not many companies would do that. Nicely done!!

Wow that’s a big last minute decision lol!! Enjoy mate sounds like it’s going to be a good day!! (Don’t forgot to update TV Firmware!!)

Oh god ok - so as I said the Microsoft order arrived nice and early. Amazon is now giving the estimate of “11pm” for my order being delivered by them! LOL wtf!

Well at least we now know why your transfer is taking so long lol

You’re not on Wi-Fi are you?

I’m in a similar boat, although Amazon haven’t said it’s not coming today - yet! The Microsoft delivery was flawless and got here by 10:30am. Slightly annoyed with Amazon not even giving me an ETA lol! I’m surprised you even got £30 out of them tbh, most I’ve ever got from them was £10 lol...

Fellas.... IT HAS ARRIVED!!!!!! The UPS guy at the door was like “this your Xbox??” I said “Yes” and let out a squeal like some sort of rodent! LOL He looked at me funny and smiled lol - I think he could tell how excited I was! :ROFLMAO:

Xbox has launched in London with an AMAZING Hologram show on the Millennium Bridge!! I watched them do this on the Launch Celebration livestream and it was pretty special!!

LOL same here!! I have two coming and if one doesn’t arrive my nephew will have to wait !! Just watched the London Xbox Launch Party and it was awesome! They had a huge Series X and had stuff being projected everywhere, like a mini firework display with holograms! Very very very cool!!

Rock up there at midnight and demand they give it to you lol

50hz means it has a refresh rate of 50. Meaning it is capable of 50fps. HOWEVER that is according to RicherSounds - which is incorrect. The panel is actually capable of 60hz, so you are fine for 4K gaming at 60fps according to the Philips website (I had to look it was bugging me)...

Thats a HDMI 2.0 panel matey :)

Hey everyone! Just got word that if you are using HDMI 2.1 on your Series X for 4K120hz with VRR you must make sure that your TV is running the latest firmware from the manufacturer. To do this, just go to your TV’s settings and hit the “update firmware” option. Your TV should then download and...

Literally checked just now after seeing your message - Amazon now says it has been Dispatched as of 6:53pm. Looks like they will have a few hundred at least to scan in as they are loaded on to vans so I think you should expect yours to be updated quite soon!!

I might film an unboxing, although it feels “late” now as the every damn tech channel got theirs like a month ago lol! I’m really not sure what I’ll do tbh... I think I may scream like a child for a bit once it arrives and take a million pictures to spam to friends and on Facebook lol. I’ll...

I feel your pain, my UPS says “By End of Day” too. Lame. Lol

Ah yeah, for Forza I wouldn’t say an Elite controller would make a huge difference. But for FPS games especially the difference is big as you can keep your thumb on the right thumbstick to aim all the time without having to take it off to press “A for jump” for example.

You gotta try them dude. Yes, it is a lot of money for a controller, I totally agree... BUT the experience is second to none. The controller has a much better weight to it, the triggers and tensions on the sticks etc are adjustable and the paddles on the back are game changing. Honestly, I can...

If it drops lower than what I paid, I’ll just buy it again and return this one. (That is actually the advice an Amazon rep gave me - as returns are accepted till the end of January for anything you buy right now).

Amazon emailed me saying thanks for pre-ordering the Series X, and then gave me a £10 voucher for any Xbox controller. I have the original Elite controller and I’ve had it since it launched, so its getting on a bit. The Elite Series II is £159.99 everywhere but Amazon has it listed for £148. So...

My Amazon order is still waiting to dispatch! My Microsoft order has FINALLY changed from “Label Created” to ”SHIPPED” and is now with UPS!! WOOO!!!
