Some users claimed on social media that their new Xbox Series X was smoking and released videos as evidence. However, many people are skeptical about whether these videos are true. This may be a careful plan. Scam.
All this stems from the Twitter of an Xbox Series X owner Arek Adamowicz. In a video, Adamowicz photographed that it seems that a few minutes after powering on, there is smoke from the top of the game console, and another Twitter user Nick Blanco also A similar video was posted.
However, other Twitter users said that the smoke looks suspicious, like smoke from electronic cigarettes . According to Xbox Studio, this effect is easy to create because the Xbox Series X absorbs heat from the bottom and pushes it out from the top. All you need to do is take a big puff of smoke and blow it to the bottom vent, where the Xbox Series X will draw in cold air and then be blown out from the top by another fan.
But according to Adamowicz, he denied fraud. Unlike the video posted by Xbox Studio on Twitter, he did not see anyone blowing smoke toward the bottom of the console. Adamowicz claimed that this happened a few minutes after the initial startup, and he was seeking a replacement.
This does not rule out the possibility of video editing. The smoke from Adamowicz’s console looks very similar to the smoke from Xbox Studio’s console, but Adamowicz also denies this.
Naijatechnews understands that regardless of whether these Xboxes really catch fire, Microsoft is investigating this potential problem: “We take all product safety reports seriously, and our products meet or exceed industry standards. We are investigating further.” Microsoft The spokesperson told Gizmodo.
Microsoft responded: Please don’t blow smoke into Xbox Series X!
