    White, Pinpoint Flashing Issue with XBox Series S


    Hi all, I've scoured the internet looking for info on this issue but haven't found anyone else who has encountered it.

    Yesterday I bought an XBox Series S, and when I play Borderlands 3 on the XBox, the screen is constantly interrupted by these bright white flashes. The flashes don't appear to be the same issue that other Series X users have encountered; i.e. it's not the screen flickering - the flashes themselves seem to originate from random points on the screen, and are just big flashes of white, some bigger than others.

    So far I've tried the following: - turning on and off all the Video settings; 4K, HDR, etc. - turning on and off Y4:4:2 encoding (hopefully I got that name right) - checking for firmware/software updates - none required of either the xbox or TV - changing HDMI cables

    I'm now at a loss; none of the above fixed the issue. I have a feeling that it's got something to do with an incompatibility between my TV and the Series S; I have a TCL P6 Series 4K UHD TV bought in late 2018.

    My hunch is between an older model TV and the Series S which can't quite manage 4K (1440p is the maximum right?) it's causing this issue.

    Just want to check if there are any more suggestions other than forking out for a new TV :'(

    Edit: Further to the above, this issue is only encountered when playing BL3 - no such issue watching Netflix or on the menu screen of the XBox. BL3 is the only game I have presently.

    White screen issue on Xbox serie s

    Hello Fabio Milesi!

    Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing a white screen issue on your Xbox Series S. This issue can be caused by a number of factors, including a corrupted system update or a hardware issue. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:



    1. Check for system updates: Make sure your Xbox Series S is up to date with the latest system updates. To do this, go to Settings > System > Updates & downloads > Console update available.



    2. Clear the cache: Clearing the cache on your Xbox Series S can help resolve issues with the system. To do this, press and hold the power button on the front of the console for 10 seconds. Once the console has turned off, unplug the power cord from the back of the console and wait for 10 seconds. Then, plug the power cord back in and turn on the console.



    3. Try a different account: If the issue persists, try logging in with a different account to see if the issue is with your account or the console itself.



    4. Contact Xbox Support: If none of the above steps work, it's possible that there may be a hardware issue with your console. In this case, I recommend contacting Xbox Support for further assistance.



    I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

    The Series S is a newer console. It looks like the white one in the picture above. A One S is the older generation.
