Looks like it will turn yellow after a few years.

Are MS purposely trying to kill Xbox at this stage?

No, that version costs another $50. You don't get color changing for free!

Maybe the spongebod deluxe "I'm a wanker" edition will make it more appealing.

Upgraded? Nothing is upgraded at the new version of the Xbox series X...its downgraded, they removed the disc drive the rest is exactly the same....

The fact that The Verge has proof that this fake looking thing is authentic is blowing my mind.

Looks a lot better than the stupid round one. The XSX wasn't a bad size anyway.

Need a side by side. See PS5 slim, looked about the same until it was put next to a regular PS5.
Also, Series X was already compact as it is. The engineering that went into fitting all this tech in such a small box was already impressive

There are enough point of references to see it's the same size as the OG

Did you read the rest of my comment? The unit is already very small compared to the PS5, just look at the picture lol.
This design is so efficient. Not enough credit was given to Xbox engineers.

This is nothing like the PS5 slim. While the looks are subjective (I actually like the slim more overall), the console itself is actually noticeably smaller and the fact that you can add or remove the disc drive is great.
This is just a quick and no effort way to release an all digital console just like what they did last generation. They would have had to redesign most of the console because when you look at the inside of a Series X there’s not much room to make things smaller really.
Now whether they should have is a different question. It costs a lot to redesign a console. It costs barely anything to simply not cut out a slot and remove a component.

Reminds me of a Sony digital camera from the early 2000s. They used to have horrible processing for straight edges.

I personally just like the generic look. I don't really like the way the PS5 looks at all but the slim is better at least. Either way how my console looks is probably the last thing on my mind when I buy one.

Such a trash example of industrial design...

They should've released this back in 2020 instead of that shitbox series S.
And yeah it is a pretty lazy redesign. I like my consoles black

Once you go black, you'll never go back.

Not even the two tone colors bothered me as much as how much they mangled the shape and ergonomics of it... it looks like an ugly stadia controller. I'd be all for gyro support but not like this

I thought the XSX was a great bit of kit, hardware wise. But for me this refresh just looks so lacklustre in terms of effort. And just another push towards what MS wants, digital only.Did you read the rest of my comment? The unit is already very small compared to the PS5, just look at the picture lol.

My lord! Gets worse every time I see it. Such a horrendous design. Is that like a little stand on the slim just so it can sit horizontally?
At least the XS consoles are inoffensive in their design. I actually quite like the box look, sits well with the rest of my equipment. MUCH better in black though, the white is not nice.

Yeah, it always reminded me of the GameCube. That thing was packed together in a pretty amazing way. So tiny next to the original Xbox, which wasn't THAT much more powerful.

love me the fat white ps3 thoughWhite consoles
but still not good enough to be a console's primary launch color

Removing about 15-20% of the internal components with the disk drive, not changing anything in terms of the design. It’s absolutely lazy.
Sony removed what, 30% of the total volume of disc and digital consoles? Initially I’d agree that the Series consoles looked better than the OG PS5 models but the slims (particularly the digital) look miles better.
This is more garbage from Microsoft.

Multiple motherboards is not really efficient design. Its expensive.Did you read the rest of my comment? The unit is already very small compared to the PS5, just look at the picture lol.

Agreed, I meant efficiency "Space" wise for the design to keep it as compact as possible, not monetary.

I think a color swap would be a good way to differentiate the systems with upgraded storage, at least you'd know at a glance whether it is the 512GB/1TB or 1TB/2TB skus.

Copying Sony strategy (4 years later), again?
Do they even try to innovate at MS?

Xbox was considerably more powerful, the problem is the tech in Xbox was too new, programmable shaders lead the way to what we use today, but was something very new in the industry at the time. Games like Splinter Cell being on the more capable PC was the only real benchmark at the time, in fact the Xbox was so much more advanced that it can even handle games in HD.
