Do I need a fast internet connection?

Yes. It is a cloud gaming device, so games run on remote servers and stream to your screen. A fast, stable connection is essential for smooth play.

Does it play games from discs or install them locally?

No. It is built for cloud services like Xbox Game Pass, Nvidia GeForce Now and Freecast, so games stream rather than run on the box itself.

What comes in the box?

The console, a gaming controller and a portable keyboard.

Can I watch Netflix and Prime on it?

Yes. It installs popular streaming apps, so it can double as a media box for shows and movies.

How does it compare with an Xbox Series X?

The Series X runs games locally and plays discs. The XStream streams games from the cloud and leans on streaming apps, so it depends on your connection and subscriptions.

Is it good for a secondary TV?

It can be, since it is compact and combines cloud games with streaming apps. Check that your Wi-Fi reaches that room well.

Our take on the XStream Cloud Gaming Console

The XStream is a cloud gaming box built into a small gaming PC-style case, not a disc or cartridge console. It runs cloud services such as Xbox Game Pass, Nvidia GeForce Now and Freecast, and installs streaming apps like Netflix and Prime. It ships with a gaming controller and a portable keyboard. It suits people who want one box for cloud games and TV apps and who already have fast internet; it does not play games locally the way an Xbox Series X or a gaming PC does, so its performance depends on your connection and the services' libraries.
