Microsoft just released a must have Xbox update that improves its Xbox consoles boot times. The changes see the boot process go from 20 seconds to 15 seconds for Xbox Series S | X.

Reported by The Verge, Xbox testers noted slight improvements in the bootup times. Microsoft confirmed the updates last week. This comes by way of shortening the bootup animation. They were able to speed up the boot sequence by a good 5 seconds. quicker than previously. This update is available for both Xbox S | X consoles and the Xbox One.

Xbox owners will only be able to benefit from improved bootup times if they set their console to Energy Saver mode instead of Standby mode, meaning that the console will be fully powered off, as opposed to immediately booting up the game after powering on. The Energy Saver mode saves up much more electricity, which helps the planet and the electricity bills. Microsoft is pushing this to become the go-to for users, making it the default option for newer Xbox consoles. Let us know what you think of this update in the comments below.
