Xbox Series X has a feature call instant on which turns on the console quickly. One of next gens feature for both consoles is that they are faster then the last in all aspects. The thing is feature for XBX has a down side.
Power. The system is always on and it will be consuming a lot of power in order to get to your game quicker. To give an idea it is estimated over all the feature will use 4 billion kWh of power as we take in 30 million XBX being used by 2025. This will coast us though $10 a year in energy coast.
“The aforementioned 4 billion kWh is based on a model that accounts for 30 million Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S consoles sold by 2025. To calculate this number, the Natural Resources Defense Council looked at how much the Xbox One sold in its first five years in the United States. That said, it’s reasonable to expect the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S will outsell the Xbox One given that the latter stumbled tremendously out of the gate and was instantly crushed by the PS4. In other words, it’s quite possible 4 billion kWh may be a light estimate.
That said, the figure does assume that 66 percent of users will use instant-on mode rather than the energy-saving mode. The Natural Resources Defense Council notes that there’s nothing backing up this assumption, which means it could be substantially over or under the actual percentage.”
