Calibrate your TV and Xbox

Your new Xbox is powerful and can pump out some great imagery, but the graphics will look even better if you ensure that both TV and Xbox are properly calibrated. Thankfully, the Xbox Series X/S has super easy-to-use tools to tweak and perfect your picture, located in the general settings menu’s video options.

One of the tools here will let you know if your TV supports high dynamic range (HDR) color, faster refresh rates like 120Hz, or variable refresh rate (VRR) technology. If your TV does support some of these features, this same menu will let you quickly toggle those and some others. Make sure you take a moment to set everything correctly. If you’ve got a fancy TV that supports all the bells and whistles, it’d be a shame not to take advantage of them. Once you experience a game running at 120Hz with HDR you won’t want to go back.
