Microsoft recently increased the price of its Xbox Series consoles by up to $100, but not all retailers have raised their prices yet. For now, Dell is selling the digital-only Xbox Series X (1TB) for $449.99, saving you $100 on the new MSRP. The smaller 512GB Xbox Series S can be found at Walmart for $273.99 ($106 off), while the 1TB model costs $347 ($83 off).
The Xbox Series X is more powerful and capable than its smaller counterpart, the Xbox Series S. It supports native 4K resolution, offers 1TB of storage, and has faster performance due to its expanded GPU capabilities. However, both consoles lack an optical drive, limiting them to playing digital titles.
Despite the price hike, fans can still purchase the Xbox Series X and S at discounted prices from some retailers. The Xbox Series S tops out at 2560 x 1440 QHD resolution, while the Xbox Series X is designed for fast, 4K gameplay. Both consoles can play all digital games, including those offered through Xbox Game Pass.
