The best Xbox One power brick is the one that matches your console, its specified power supply and your local mains voltage. For the original Xbox One, two concrete listings to compare are Quantum Connection’s used A13-203N1A / X892290-003 and LaptopParts.ca’s new XBOXONE-ACADAPTER. They are different buying options, and their electrical details need checking before purchase.
Microsoft’s Xbox One product guide directs owners to use the supply and AC cord provided with the console or supplied by an authorized repair center. The retail listings below are not evidence that either seller is an authorized repair center. For a replacement, start by checking the model specified for your console.
Two original Xbox One power supplies to compare
| Listing | Condition and package | Retailer-listed input | Retailer-listed output |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quantum Connection A13-203N1A / X892290-003 | Used OEM listing; one brick and AC wall cord | 100–127V AC, 4.8A, 50/60Hz | 12V DC, 16.5A; 5V standby, 1A |
| LaptopParts.ca XBOXONE-ACADAPTER | New aftermarket listing; one brick and AC cord | 100–240V AC, 2A, 47–63Hz | 12V DC, 17.9A; 5V standby, 1A |
These are seller specifications, not our measurements or a safety certification. Both listings show an original Xbox One connector. The Xbox One S and Xbox One X have internal supplies. Neither listing is a replacement for those or an Xbox 360 brick.
1. Quantum Connection A13-203N1A: for a matching used OEM replacement
Quantum Connection’s A13-203N1A / X892290-003 listing identifies a Microsoft OEM supply for the original Xbox One, model 1540. The retailer describes a used unit and includes its AC wall cord.
Why compare it: it gives a specific Microsoft part number to match against your existing supply. Consider it only for a confirmed matching application. Its listed 100–127V input does not cover 220–240V mains.
Check before ordering: request a readable rating-label photo of the actual unit and confirm condition, plug type and return terms. The listing photos show the brick, console connector and cord, but do not provide a readable underside label. Its 16.5A output should not be treated as a universal specification for every original Xbox One power supply.
2. LaptopParts.ca XBOXONE-ACADAPTER: for a new aftermarket option
LaptopParts.ca’s XBOXONE-ACADAPTER is explicitly sold as a new aftermarket supply with a cord. The retailer lists replacement references A12-220N1A, A13-203N1A, X863372-005 and X892290-003.
Why compare it: it offers a new-unit alternative to a used OEM listing. Its catalog specifies a wider input-voltage range, while the product photo shows a North American two-flat-pin wall plug and the original Xbox One console connector.
Check before ordering: confirm your exact console and supply reference with the seller. The photographed label is too soft to independently read. Ask for a legible label and credible electrical-conformity documentation for the supplied model and your market. The listed voltage range does not establish approval for use in every country, and a plug adapter does not change a supply’s voltage rating.
Match the supply before connecting it
- Console: these listings concern the original Xbox One with an external brick. A figure-eight AC cable sold for an Xbox One S or One X is not an external power supply.
- Model and output: compare the console’s specified supply, existing part number, output ratings and connector. Do not choose by appearance or a “220W” headline alone.
- Input and cord: verify that the actual label’s voltage and frequency match your mains supply and that the supplied cord is suitable for your location.
- Condition: stop using a damaged supply or cord. Do not open or attempt to repair a mains-powered brick; use qualified service support.
Which should you choose?
Compare the Quantum listing first when you can confirm the same OEM part and its limited input range suits your location. Compare LaptopParts.ca if you want a new aftermarket unit and can obtain satisfactory model, label and conformity evidence. If those checks remain unresolved, use a repair provider to identify a suitable replacement before buying. A product name or connector photo alone cannot establish electrical suitability.
