There are 103 valid 7-letter words ending with X in the SOWPODS dictionary. X is one of Scrabble's four power tiles, worth 8 points on its own, and the highest-scoring option here is JUKEBOX at 27 points.

Why X at the End Matters

💡 Tile Value

Every word in this list already carries an X, so you're banking 8 points before any multiplier lands on it — land it on a Double or Triple Letter Score and the swing is large.

Because X lands last, 7-letter words ending with X are naturally suited to hooking: adding X onto a shorter word already on the board to build a new one on your turn.

Notable Words

Highest scorer: JUKEBOX is worth 27 points — X's 8 points plus the rest of the tiles in the word. It's the play to look for if you're building toward a big turn.

Worth memorising first: COMPLEX (20 points) is one of the lower scorers here, which usually means it's a more familiar word — a safer one to keep in your working vocabulary than the obscure high scorers.

How many options: 103 valid 7-letter words ending with X exist in SOWPODS — fewer than the ~1398 typical for this slot, so it's realistic to learn most of the useful ones.
