My Xbox Series S won’t turn on. It’s only 1.5 years old.

My Xbox series S is pretty new. It won’t turn on. There is no damage to the device whatsoever. Can this be fixed easily? What do I do to fix this?

Hi Courtney,

Try the recommended troubleshooting in this support article:

Also try a different power cable if possible. Series X|S consoles use a standard figure 8 cable, the same one for the One X and One S models.

Hope this helps.

No as it's only for xbox series s and x NOT any xbox one's

Xbox one's are 10 year old tech

7 year old gpus have issues running it at basic settijgs

How will a 10 year old console run it

It's next gen only

Current next gen consoles are based on tech released in december

The first thing I did was update my controller and it's still drifting on the y axis. The Xbox controller that I use for my pc that I got 7 years ago works. My 360 controllers works. The series x controller, 1.5 years old, drifts like crazy. Just outta warranty, funny how that works. 😜
