    Xbox power question


    Hello, currently I have my Series X set to energy saving mode. So when I finish playing and turn off my Xbox, is it necessary to unplug it from the wall if I won't be playing for a while, or always having it plugged in to the wall is fine? Also If I have Xbox on Energy saving mode does it effect brightness or other display settings when playing games?

    Thanks

    :)

    It only governs what happens when it's off. It will use more power in standby than energy saving, but it will be able to install things and do updates

    I think about 75% of the people who argue console specs have no idea what they actually mean.

    [quote user="Soldier on Duty"]Dark , you have earned my respect just with way you approached this debate or argue meant. I don't know much factual your opinion is but none the less it can be respected. Unlike many pricks on this forum like halojolly , that
    punk who writes in red and ghost... your approach with explaining differences is a lot better.

    Yup ign just posted another flame bait topic on the power difference. Guess it must be a slow news day. I really hate how ign plays both sides against each other for hits. It's just cheap and sad.
