Will my Xbox one work fine in the cold and humid?

Have a thermometer with a humidity sensor in it? See if the humidity is exceptionally low in your environment (25% or less).



If the humidity level is fine consider exchanging it at your retailer for a new one.

Would being in winter have anything to do with the humidity being low?

I'll try the power cycle next time it happens, not holding my breath on it working though as the Xbox switches on for literally less than a second. No humidity in the room, it never gets cold enough to see your breath. It doesn't take a large temp drop to
cause the fault, were only talking a few degrees Celsius for it to occur.

Metro: Exodus nails player immersion. You can almosy taste the dry sands in the desert, feel the biting cold snow and ice in the city and smell the humidity in the metro tunnels/flooded tubes.

That is a little strange. You'd figure that cold temperatures are ideal for electronics that get hot.

Have you first tried a proper power cycle whenever it did that?

If anything, I could only guess that cold temps could be damaging to the Xbox if the room humidity is unusually high (meaning there's a lot of water vapor in the air, 60%+?), which might be a complicating factor for electronics in general. This could be
the case if you can see your breath when it's especially cold in your house.
