Microsoft will soon let you get in-person repairs for Xbox Series X / S consoles at uBreakiFix stores, the company announced today. Microsoft already offers in-person Xbox repairs at Microsoft retail stores,

Said goal has also had a smaller impact on the consoles themselves. According to Microsoft, it has improved how the Xbox Series S handles video, with average reduction approaching 10% in power consumption. The company also recommends using the Shutdown (energy saving) option, which can be found via Settings, General, Power Options on your console.

That repairs program will be known as 'uBreakiFix' by Asurion, and it basically enables folks to get their console repairs done in-person by a Microsoft-authorised outlet. The Xbox owner says that "nearly 700 participating store locations across the U.S." will provide this repair service for players, starting January 20th.
