What is this noise coming from my Xbox!?

Difficult to say for sure but, given it changes in pitch, I would suspect it's the fan. Could be coil whine from the GPU though. Does it get worse when it's on but not actively playing a game?

I would say, if mine was making that noise, I'd be sending it back for repair as it is not normal...whilst it may not make any performance difference, it's not something you should have to live with for the next few years

Hello, how are you? Hope you're well. My name is Mateus. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

First, welcome to the Xbox community. Well, this problem is not normal, as both the Xbox Series S/X are extremely quiet to the point where you can't hear any noise coming from them. Have you ever had problems with the console other than this, for example, games crashing, messages of overheating, or performance drop?

In any case, if your console is still under warranty, I suggest that you have it repaired or replaced if necessary. To activate your warranty, you must follow the instructions in the article below.

Hello, I currently have a warranty claim on the console but when I was sending it off I got a notification that the console would be replaced. I have paid for a skin which is on the device (in sticker format) and I would like to know if it will be replaced if the console is replaced?

What do you mean by "buzzing sound"?

Is it a buzzing noise coming from your laptop's cooling fans (or other components)? Or is it a buzzing noise from the Xbox gameplay stream?

it was coming from the hard drive. i did an internet seach and the clicking noise was similar to the "hard drive click of death". A failing hard drive.

My cousin's xbox one S made the same clicking noise with no beep, the clicking in his xbox was coming from the fan
