I'm not happy with NXE. It's MUCH slower than the old interface. There are also bugs.
Items showing up that when you select it tells you it's not available any more.
I still get a message that another user logged in when I log in. That bug has been there for 2 years now.
I understand why Microsoft changed the interface, they had to, bacause the old one couldn't handle the large number of content, but for ME, NXE is not for the better at all.

 

Never have this problem. NXE if faster than the old Dash, it might take a little time finding stuff since it's a new interface but overall it is better and that's coming from me who is not a big fan of Media Center interface.

 

I like NXE, but I will have to agree with bokvamme. NXE is slower. It sometimes crashes when I bring up the Dash in game. Netflix through NXE is "temperarily" down at least 3 times out of every 4 I try to boot it up. NXE still has a lot to be ironed out, but I think it is a step in the right direction, esp the choice to install games to the HDD.

I wonder if these issues are isolated by regions?  In the midwest (Indiana, so actually more Central US), neither myself nor any of my friends on Live (which are mostly from Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, and Kentucky) have experienced these Netflix issues or slowness.  I experienced slowness and occasional 20 second freezes during the first week after the NXE was released, but after that I have not had any issues.
