Xbox one X HDMI not working

The Xbox One X is the only console that has HDMI 2.1. Xbox One S has HDMI 2.0.

The Xbox One S and One X both use HDMI 2.0,

The Xbox One uses HDMI 1.4

The Series X will have HDMI 2.1.

I'm very sorry to hear that your Xbox doesn't seem to be displaying... have you checked the following?

• Verify HDMI cable works with another device
• Verify the HDMI input on your TV or Receiver works with another device
• Verify that the HDMI cable is plugged into the HDMI IN port on the Xbox One X
• If you have another display (like a HDMI computer monitor or another TV) try connecting it to that
• Try disconnecting and reconnecting the HDMI cable while the Xbox One X is powered on

Check if it's just the display having issues... if if the Xbox One X isn't booting properly:

1. Turn on the Xbox One X, and connect a LAN cable to your Xbox One X and to your router
2. Log into your router and check to see if your Xbox One X is showing up on the network
3. If you can see it on your network than that means that there's an issue in your display chain specifically
4. If you can't check it that way, see if the Xbox App can detect your Xbox on the network

Do controllers wired to the Xbox One X power on and light up properly? This is another way to check and see if it's a display issue, or if the XBox One X isn't even booting properly

Hopefully one of the items listed above will help us get closer to the source of your problem 🙂

I had a 50 foot HDMI 2.0 braided one for my Xbox One X and it worked fine in 4K HDR.

Does your monitor have HDMI 2.0?. Any less then that it wont work with the xbox one S or X.

I had this exact problem, which perplexed me for some time.

I blame the HDMI driver chip. In the Xbox One X, it seems to be much weaker than in the One S. I have both consoles, each feeding LG OLED TVs.

While the One S works fine in 4K without about any HDMI cable, the One X is **VERY PICKY**.

You need a very-high-quality HDMI cable to ensure adequate signal integrity with the Xbox One X.
