The benefit here is that games and applications will continue installing and updating, even when the console is off. It will also allow you to wake up your console using a voice command (where available)or use it to switch on your TV, cable or satellite. As the name suggests, this will switch your console on much faster, taking under 5 seconds. It takes longer for the console to boot up after you turn it back on - up to 45 seconds.Īnother option, the one used to download games while this Xbox is on standby, is the Instant-on mode. There is the Energy-saving power mode, which is designed, as you'd expect, to save energy. Technically, the Xbox offers more than one kind of standby mode. It's the Xbox equivalent to the PlayStation 5's Rest Mode. Sleep mode is a shorthand for putting your Xbox on standby, rather than switching it off completely. We'll look at both the Xbox One and the Series X|S below.
So, let's get into how you download games onto your Xbox, even when it's in sleep mode. Given the sheer size of some modern games, even a fast internet connection can still take a long time to fully download them. When you return to your console, you won't have to start up the download where you left off, saving you a lot of time and frustration. This has the benefit of letting you get on with the rest of your day.
